with brakes I recommend a service tech check out, brakes are a no fail issue when your life is on the line

check your cabin air filter and see if it is plugged way up. These cost about 20 dollars to replace.

Something happened with the Wiring if this did not happen before you changed the battery...

The buzz could be the fuel pump in the gas tank.If it will run with the throttle open it could have an issue with the idle speed control valve or a dirty throttle body.The computer controls idle speed by how much air enters the intake thru the valve.

Probably a bad sending unit in the tank,or maybe a broken tank baffle.(Either way,you're looking at taking out the tank to find out.

Radiator need flushing, or possibly water pump going out

R134 a is the proper refrigerant for your vehicle. It will be filled through the low pressure port on the a/c system. The low pressure port is always the smaller of the two fittings that is on the larger of the two lines. You should be able to find a sticker for the a/c system that tells you how much the system holds. Do not go over this amount.

so good to know ,

Look at your coolant if is good change your sensor

If the needle doesn't move at all at any given time from the resting position then the gauge is probably the problem. To test and/or replace the panel (in most cases, the gauges are together in a cluster panel, thus needing to replace the whole thing) you'll have to pull the dash, or at least part of it. To do it yourself, it's best to try and find a wiring diagram and/or make physical or mental notes of what plugs you removed from where. There's several resources to learn how to test the gauge for power (essentially, if the wires to it are working correctly, then it must be the gauge cluster). Your dash may be more simple though, it all depends. I've pulled a few dashes, and generally they take a few hours to pull apart then put back together (not including the time it takes for whatever your repair/testing takes).Another issue could be a short in the wire to the fuel gauge, which can be tested for by simply testing the wires and seeing if the ground wire grounds and the positive wire provides power.Similarly, a fuel tank sensor can be an issue if the gauge and wires are ruled out. Generally this is shown by a fuel gauge that fluctuates/bobs unnaturally, but other similar damage to the mechanism can result in a gauge that doesn't move at all. In this case you'd have to get this replaced, which isn't the cheapest or easiest job (whole gas tank needs to be removed, and the part isn't cheap).

I had the exact same problem on a 2003 Montana. I thought it was a problem with the tracks or the lifting mechanism ( it is a "scizzor" style lift-not a cable style). after careful study I came to the conclusion that the glass was binding at the point where it comes into contact with the window frame....I simply applied some disc brake caliper "silglide" slider lube (it was handy and being silicon based would resist water) to the inside of the window seals...problem solved!

likely a bad crank sensor or bad ignition module, coil packs can go bad to but not normally all three at the same time.if the coil packs look ok then i would look at what tell it to fire witch is the crank sensor, the cam sensor should tell the injectors when to fire, but thats not to say they couldn't be linked in some vehicles needing singal from both for fuel and fire to work. hope this helps

There is no safety shot off switch. The only manufacturer that uses one of these is ford. What problem are you having? I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jeremy_d728a59f986299fa

No fuse for low speed ,what you have is a series of different windings inside the motor unit with a feed from the stalk switch so its down to checking for a feed from the stalk switch first in case this unit is faulty ,the intermittant is controlled by a timer relay and this as well could be faulty and i cannot give an exact answer without first putting my automotive electrical meter on the control switch to determine the cause ,so if i had power leaving the stalk switch then i would change the intermittant relay but only if i fould no current leaving the relay to the motor if power was leaving the relay on low speed then i would change the motor .

vcr? wow, I honestly thought they were obsolete, not trying to be a smart ***, but everyone has converted to dvd. I can help you do the same if your interested in doing so, my advice is free btw<< by the way...if I can help you

If you can get the actual trouble code I may be able to help you.
