My 2001 vrg is not powering out
If your 2001 VRG (assuming you're referring to a vehicle) is experiencing issues with the power windows not operating, there are a few common causes and troubleshooting steps you can try:
1. **Check the Window Lock Switch**: Many vehicles have a window lock switch that disables the operation of all windows except for the driver's window. Make sure this switch is not engaged, as it could prevent the other windows from operating.
2. **Inspect the Window Switches**: Check the window switches on the driver's side and passenger's side (if applicable) to see if they are functioning properly. If a switch is faulty or worn out, it may not send the correct signal to the window motor.
3. **Test Other Windows**: If only one window is not working, try operating the other windows to see if they are functioning normally. If all windows are affected, the issue may be with the master window switch or a common electrical problem.
4. **Check the Fuse**: Locate the fuse box in your vehicle and check the fuse related to the power windows. If the fuse is blown, it will need to be replaced with a new one of the same amperage rating. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual or fuse box cover for the location of the power window fuse.
5. **Inspect Wiring and Connections**: Visually inspect the wiring harnesses and connections related to the power windows for any signs of damage, corrosion, or loose connections. Repair or replace any damaged wiring or connectors as needed.
6. **Test Window Motor**: If the switches and wiring appear to be in good condition, the issue may be with the window motor itself. Test the window motor by applying power directly to it using jumper wires. If the motor does not respond, it may be faulty and require replacement.
7. **Consider Professional Inspection**: If you're unable to diagnose or repair the issue on your own, consider taking your vehicle to a professional mechanic or auto electrician for further diagnosis and repair. They will have the tools and expertise to properly diagnose the problem and recommend the appropriate repairs.
By following these troubleshooting steps, you should be able to identify and address the issue with your vehicle's power windows.
On my Fortress 2000 the turn signals not working every thing else works
this is no car it is Mobility scooter , right? electric scooter. tiny.
be does the hazard switch work right or not. test 1
test 2 all fuses good
now working means what?
all 4 or more turn lamps dead.? or stuck on, or some work or not?
only left or right or only front or rear fail?
this answer is for cars, posted to cars. and trucks.
test 3, remove all bulbs and test them 1 by 1, in the car. (lamps can in fact short out)
02 MONTE CARLO LS When I turn the key to the ON position, if the turn signals do not flash the starter will not engage.
3.4L or 3.8L not told.
hot wired the starter solenoid you meant (a SOP act that) all techs do. and good input if yes.
when it failed to crank the next act is SCAN the PCM and let it tell you why it blocks cranking
I sure will. OBD2 scan tools any.
we check all fuses next. be a shame if 50 cent ATC fuse is cause.
Battery voltage does not drop below 11vcd cranking, 12.6v is charged (rested voltage)
well if the starter is dead fix that first, and the automatic trans, blocks the cranking , to the starter
if the car has bad PRNDL switch (fails in park) or alram in the cluster is active is it?
blinkers are last, you can still hand signal by law so fix the starter first.
no need to blink if can't drive or worse stranded with dead starter , how fun is that>?
Chevy. (no starter or GEN replacements right? with battery still connected. sure. not done wrong
the starter runs by the CRANK relay.
under hood relay and Logic runs its coil inside said relay via, BCM etc.
PCM crank fuse not blown.at N/M 11 slot.
the key switch at start , sends 12vdc to CRANK FUSE and that goes to PCM.
the PCM is told to crank, the start.
the car has tranny park cable if not calibrated, or bad, park does not happen and PCM sees that
and will not crank the car with P/N switch showing wrong.
4T65t transmission must be fully in to park and not failing P/N switch
not scanning the PCM first you miss all these facts.
if you have the M/T box now is the time to fess up. really.
here is the PCM connection to the A/T box
the signals are GGGG or 0000 volts DC.
if not the PCM block all cranking
if you scanned the PCM you'd already know this.
the PCM is smart to know that ******* codes from the switch must set a DTC error.
as you can see that it is 4 times safer to not to drive over the kids.
amazing no?

Where does the power come from to the dash fuse box
The fuse box is powered directly by the battery.the wires from fuse box connected to the vehicle components that need protection the fuses consist of a wire conductor that breaks when the current exceeds the ampere limit.That ampere limit is usually on each fuse.

Gather Tools: You'll need basic tools like screwdrivers, trim removal tools, and a staple gun.
Remove the Old Headlining:
Remove Visors and Handles: Take off sun visors, handles, and other accessories attached to the headliner.
Remove Trim Panels: Carefully pry off any trim panels covering the edges of the headliner.
Unscrew and Remove: Unscrew any fasteners securing the headliner to the roof.
Lower the Headliner: Slowly lower the headliner, being mindful of any wiring or components.

Is there a fuse for 1983 electric window
It is adviseable to post brand and model and year of a vehicle to get a better answer. In your 1983 car, if the power window keeps rolling up unexpectedly, there are a few potential reasons for this behavior. And while I can describe what to try, as I don't have brand, model, year information, I cannot point to a service manual for you. You can try googling for that or responding to my query.
Loose or Poor Connection at the Switch:
The most common cause is a loose or poor connection at the window switch. Over time, connectors can become corroded or bent.
Try the following steps:
Pull up the door switches and inspect the connector sockets and pins.
Straighten any bent pins or contacts.
Clean any corrosion or grime from the connectors.
If everything worked before, this should get your windows functioning again.
Faulty Window Switch:
The window switch itself might be faulty. If a specific window goes down but not up, the switch could be the culprit.
Consider replacing the switch if cleaning the connectors doesn't resolve the issue.
Additional Considerations:
Check the child safety lock switch on the driver's door. It might accidentally be engaged, preventing the window from going up.
Inspect the wiring, window motors, and window regulators for any issues.
I have a Vauxhall insignia and the battery is dead
As Steve Pack said, you replace a dead battery. And if there is some other issue regarding the battery, you are in good hands with Steve. Respond to his query.
If the battery is indeed dead, you can jump-start your Insignia using jumper cables and a healthy battery from another vehicle. Connect the red cable to the positive terminal of your Insignia's dead battery and then to the positive terminal of the donor battery. Next, connect the black cable to the negative terminal of the donor battery and then to bare metal in the engine bay of your Insignia. Start the donor vehicle and then your Insignia. Finally, remove the cables in reverse order.
