Separate names with a comma.
Doesn't the inverter scale back and then turn itself off just the same way if the inverter fails? Safety circuitry built into the inverter. I...
No codes, really? Fire up techstream (or equivalent) and see what sorts of currents it is handling. There is a small possibility that somehow...
There are no identifying marks on the tubes or the ports on the actuator? Do you have a helper? If one person taps lightly on the metal at the...
If the actuator is good and it doesn't work when transplanted into another car that suggests the problem is there. Perhaps the brake lines to the...
You would think, right? But last time I looked it was actually cheaper at a dealer than any place local where I could drop in and buy one - if...
That was just an example for the current state of that battery. Another way to think about this is, if the battery new had N Ah, and 4 years...
The testers were both the type that use frequency tests on the battery to estimate its properties. They don't actually load the battery at all as...
The battery I recently replaced had around 10 Ah of capacity left (measured at close to 25C). The electronic battery testers (mine and one in an...
Does it though? It can tell you that the battery can deliver 40A (or whatever the load is set to, 40A would be plenty for modeling a Prius start)...
It is in a very unhelpful location. You need to remove the hatch "floor" and the big tray that sits under it to access it. This is a PITA to do...
The load testers referred to in the preceding three posts are for CCA or some other measure of peak current (in amps), they do not measure battery...
By "will not open" does the OP mean that after the release button is pressed the hatch does not pop up? If so, if the edge of the hatch is...
The little electronic battery testers do NOT measure battery capacity. They do look for certain faults and can make a semi-accurate prediction of...
The automatic unlocking I referred to is the next level past SKS and goes by names like "Passive Keyless Entry". Some SUVs take it a "step...
A dirty filter wouldn't cause a squealing sound. A filter somehow collapsing onto the blower could do that. A missing filter letting leaves and...
The OP should either check the one belt this car has, or have a mechanic do it. Freezing weather can push a marginal belt over the edge, and the...
Yeah, that's too many wires to splice. Sometimes it is possible to get a zip tie around the back of the connector and then under a flange on the...
When you know how much current is actually being drawn (measured with all the "is it closed" switches for the doors and hatch in the "closed"...
First, how are you measuring the current? If the hatch is open that alone will cause hundreds of mA of draw. One way to prevent that is to stuff...
Sorry, didn't notice this earlier: Loosen the clamp, pry apart the loop that goes around the post, push the loop all the way down the post until...
