Fan motor resistor broken. High fan circuit has no resistor so it still works.

This is one that you can stare at all day. the trim pieces that include the air vents (usually woodgrain) will come off and expose the screws that hold the radio in. They are held in by spring clips, a gentle pry will get you started. Here is a website that shows how to remove one for a cell phone mount: http://www.bracketron.com/main/xmain_landing_page.php You may have to take the climate controll screws out to get the radio out far enough to reach the plugs on the back. You should be able to figure out the rest. good luck, and be gentle.. the trim is getting cheaper and cheaper, and is really easy to break.

hi guy

sounds like the new TPS needs adjustment

i would check all the basics like spark plugs and check for vacuum leaks around the intake manifold.With a can of 2+2 carb cleaner while engine is running --if idle goes up or down that is were your leak is--
check egr too, Lee

oil change is ok air filter clean plugs ok no check engine on using ac more often or injectors are dirty put a injector cleaner in the tank at next fill up

check which door switch is causing the problem and replace it or open each door and push the door switch do 1 door at a time not all at the same then the light will always stay on even the rear door as well the latch (rear window ) if you find the switch causing the problem you can unscrew the switch and pull it out to see if the wire is ok as well the ground on the body gets a little corrision on it clean up a little around the screw at the switch on the door side of body pass a litt;e sandpaper before installing it after all this everythings ok and the door light is on still check that the rubber protection on the door switch is not keeping the switch on

need to have a scanner to check codes if you gassed up lately and left the car running it is the evap system malfunction you are not suppost to leave the car running during fueling if not the question try to check the gas cap first to see if tight or the gasket is deformed under the cap you can put a little grease or vaselin on the cap that screws in to the tank side and if you do not have a scanner available unplug the battery for 15 minutes and put it back on then start the car if the light doesnt come on it was a intermitt problem if it lights up right away then you have a malfunction of a sensor and need to repair it

does the wiper arms move free if so the linkage assembly has come apart you have to take the plastic part under the windshield off along with the wipers arms to have access to the linkagage ,if the arms ar hard to move possible motor damaged or fuse burnt do basic first check fuses then do the process of elimination ,motor ,linkage good luck

speed sensor or wheel bearing as well brake problem or burnt fuse a few things to check if worst comes to worast unplug battery and replug battery wait 15mins before plugging battery back then go for a ride if it lights up as soon as you start there is a power problem or sensor problem if you drive it and comes on latter then you have a sensor problem or brake problem

are you sure its diesel first , you could have injectors problem pump timing air filter plugged but it sounds like running rich so i would go to fuel problem plugs , injectors, timing as well check engine is it on

check rad to see if full of prestone or if the rad fans are coming on with ac on or after ran for 15 mins possible thermostat stuck, vbelt slip, or off low prestone even waterpump broke find out what it is follow the steps first

no check engine on possible fuel pump problem or converter plugged check airfilter and exhaust if the gas is escaping

the light doesnt come on for nothing you have to find out the code to see what causes the check engine light to come on as well if you leave your car running at gas up it will cause it to come on maybe not right away a few days later can come on so find out the code and that will tell you

it is a bad throttle position sensor located on the side of throttle plate

just loosen the wipers off and readjust them its because you didnt time the wipers after replacing the wiper motor or you installed the rod in the wrong position
