Amplifier

I have a 2001 Spyder Conv. GT with the premium Infinity Sound System. The amplifier (Model # MR400692) was damaged from a water leak. I want to replace it with an after market unit (that will also fit under the front seat). I can't find any specs on the original unit so I don't overpower the speakers. Any help would be appreciated. I know it's a 210 watt system but I think that's a combined wattage.

How to replace a headlight bulb on an 2001 Eclipse

Can not figure out how to get the headlight bulb out of the housing. Either from the back or have to take apart the lens in the front. Confused because can not see any way to do it.!

Under the hood and directly behind the headlight you are trying to replace the bulb in, there is a rubber piece that is circular with 2 flat "handles" on it. Disconnect the wires from this, then wiggle the rubber piece out. Behind this is a clip. Release the clip and the bulb should come out. Replace the bulb, close the clip, make sure the rubber piece is back on tightly, and reconnect the wires.

Best part about it : No tools needed.

I just did this the other day with my 2001 eclipse GT.

How do i manually close a sunroof for a mitusbishi

Depending on the year of your vehicle....
Earlier models had a sunroof wrench. The manual states that ..."the electronic sunroof system cannot be operated manually. The sunroof wrench that was used in previous models is not provided".

Now that may mean that if you had the wrench it could be operated manually.

I did find something else here :
NOTE: If there is a problem with the sunroof motor so that the
roof lid glass cannot close fully, use an Allen wrench to turn the
gear section of the sunroof motor to fully close the roof lid
glass.

Access seems to be just above the sunroof switch.

Could be a wiring issue if you already replaced the speed sensor. I believe there are 2 speed sensors on that tranny though, and both are usaully replaced at the same time.

P0421 is Catilist effeciency. Fix P0304, if P0421 returns you will need a catalitic converter

P0455 is an Evaportive emission leak. Be sure you gas cap is tight and secure. If it is ok, then there is a leak in the system.

It's in the tank, but you can get to it from the back seat. Brief instructions below--let me know if you want more details.

  1. Properly relieve the fuel system pressure.
  2. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  3. Remove the rear seat cushion, by pulling the seat stopper outward and lifting the lower cushion upward.

  5. Disconnect the fuel pump wiring.
  6. Disconnect the return hose and the high pressure fuel hose.
