Separate names with a comma.
Look in the owners manual about resetting the Maint light. It will flash on startup for a number of miles, then turn on steady and stay on until...
Two hazards--shock and arc. I wear latex or nitrile gloves under new leather gloves when I need to handle or work near a live wire. I wear...
Okay, thanks. I looked online and saw a couple of readers, costing a couple hundred bucks. Not exactly a DIY tool.
You don't have to test every fuse, just the ones Patrick noted. And did you do the test for 12V at the fuse contacts in the fuse block? That's...
I didn't know you could check the signal strength. How do you do that? I didn't notice that feature on the Mini VCI, but I haven't really looked...
The car won't work if the lever isn't locked.
Did the dealer give you a Carfax report? That'll tell you if a dealer replaced the 12V battery and when. Checking the voltage on the 12V system...
The coolant system pump makes obvious noise only on cold start-up and after shut-down, not during the drive. Can you hear that sound in addition...
Did you use the bleeder valve as mentioned in post 153 above? Look at the reservoir with a good light while the car is off and have an...
You might want to keep an eye on the "resting" voltage of the 12V battery (car off after sitting overnight). A healthy battery will be in the...
I didn't have any codes--I replaced mine before it got that bad, when I got the opportunity to salvage a good unit. I hear the hybrid codes will...
I did mine. Twice, since I salvaged the replacement out of a wreck. I wore new leather gloves with nitrile under. Keep the gloves on when just...
Well done! Great relief it's the cheap part.
If rodents are an issue at that place and time, you might want to place bait or traps. It's best if engine is hot last time you shut it down...
This page shows some of the parts. I would start by pulling roof and lower center pillar trim panels, then the belt adjuster cover, then take a...
"Normal" vehicle maintenance like changing oil and filters and spark plugs has nothing to do with battery life. Battery life depends on charging...
The code points toward either a leak in the hydraulic system for the rear brakes or a bad actuator. And if you have rear disc brakes it could be a...
I agree. The seal is cheap, and I can't see any other way to test the inverter housing without a good seal.
You're welcome. I use the parts site a lot to figure out how things are put together before I take them apart. I think you'll only find the seal...
Yep, that's the place. The seal part number is 96761-24018. I use this site to find part numbers. Be sure the seal isn't stuck in the...
