My interior lights are dim how do i brighten them

Have you recently replaced the globe? is there one or two globes in the fitting? If it's a 2 globe fitting, one may be blown. If you've recently replaced a globe, you may have put in a lower power rated globe than the original.

If my interior lights are dim is it a fuse problem

No, that's the quick response. If you had a blown fuse you would have no light at all. Have you recently replaced a faulty globe in the interior light? if so, then the likelyhood is that you've put a lower power rated globe in than the original. An auto-electrician will know the correct globe to fit.The other thing an Auto electrician can check is to see if you have an earth fault in the wiring of the fitting.

Power steering is leaking 2002 Hyundai Sonata gls

Hey, I had that exact problem. While there's no gaurantee that your's is exactly the same, here's where I'd start looking. There are two exhaust manifolds, one in the foreward part of the engine and another on the rear of the engine. The one in the rear is harder to see and access but there is a power steering line that runs pretty close to it. Unfortunately there is a non-metal section (bend) fairly close to the manifold and over time the heat made the "rubber" brittle and it just cracked and leaked profusely. Clearly a design oversight, but not the most difficult fix. I took the old line out and matched it to a power steering line (actually for another application) I found (or should I say the salesman found). I cut it to length and reinstalled it. It's a pretty tight area to work in. Finally, I cut a piece of old garden hose 4 to 5 inches and split it lengthwise and put it over the new section to avoid the heat deterioration that caused the problem in the first place.

How do I correct the problem with the onboard vapor recovery line? Fuel is pumping very slow.

More than less likely it isn't in the vapor recovery as much as it is in the unit regulating flow. Some cars have a regulator attached somewhere close to the injectors, others have the vacuum bulb and line that regulate as the car creates vacuum while it is running. Still this may not be the problem, as you have to consider that it could be from the fuel pump or a filter that is clogged. You will have to find out where the loss in pressure is occurring and "why."

NOT STARTING

Hello

The Engine and Automatic Transmission (not applicable to manual transmissions) in this vehicles drive train are fully electronically controlled by a computer called the PCM and TCM (Power Train Control Module, Transmission Control Module). When a problem like this or other drive-ability related problems occurs the computer stores a record of the problem (there are of course some exceptions to this, like the fuel pump, engine coolant temperature sensor and MAF sensor for instance) in the form of a fault code in its memory, to read these fault codes you must have the systems memory scanned with a special tool. Once the fault code(s) are read you then must perform the appropriate diagnostic testing to find and resolve the problem(s) DO NOT REPLACE ANY PARTS UNTIL A TRAINED TECHNICAIN HAS DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM TO AVOID SPENDING YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON PARTS THAT MAY NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. Also always check fuel pressure for correct spec for your make and engine type.

Brake lights staying on when vehicle is shut off

There is an adjuster on the brake pedal that has a switch that goes in and out..You have to use a wrench to adjust it by either in or out. Just make sure when you release the pedal, that the lights go off. Or you will have to re-adjust it.
