Trunk light switch You can order Trunk light switch here How to troubleshoot and fix the trunk light Switch On Camry Disclaimer  Use this guide at your own risk! I assume no responsibility for any damage to your vehicle or personal injury as a result of following this guide. Any comments to improve the procedure will be gratefully received. Time Required It took me 2 hours from start to finish, including the time to take photos and make notes. If I had to do it again, I think I could cut this down to 1 hour or less. Tools Required: Simple hand tools and a multimeter. Let’s Get Started! 1. Remove clear plastic cover from the trunk light. It is held in place by four snaps. It is a bit tough to pull off. If necessary, use a thin flat screw driver to gently pry it off. Note that the cover is not symmetrical. The snaps on one side are spaced further apart than the other side. You will need to pay attention to this when replacing the cover. 2. Pull the light bulb out of the so...

volvo warning 'abs/anti-skid service reqd' volvo v70 2002 is showing the warning 'abs/anti-skid service reqd', also the driver side front wheel makes a screeching sound not unlike worn down pads on discs when making a right or left The vehicle has done 170k miles and I replaced the water pump and belts in March 2011. However, I did not refit the plastic inner wing till Nov of 2011. Could this have anything to do with noises and warnings I am now receiving. I guess I am keen to know if the problems are wheel speed sensors or ABS/ECU issues. Get that car Jacked up and pull the wheel and do a very close inspection. It could be any thing from a rock in the Caliper, to loose wheel bearings to bad brake pads to a bad CV Joint.Inspect for where there is any fresh wear or grind marks on your suspension to check for integrity. Also if you have run over a piece of wire it could be wrapped up int he CV axle. Inspect the brakes/suspension first. If pads an...

Sputters and shakes when accellerating 2001 volvo v70. The car shakes and sputters when accelerating from 0 to 35 mph. Also the abs light and check engine light flashes really fast. There was also a slight metallic/rubber smell. You have an engine misfire....unless you have expertise in this area you need to see your local shop as you will damage your catalytic converter if you continue to drive.  Check the Coil Pack Rubber insulator boots. If you have one that is torn that will cause your problem. The Boots are only $8.50 each through IPD. Sputtering is more than likely a bad ignition coil. If the MIL (check engine light) is flashing it indicates possible damage to the cat converter. LOTS of coil problems on these cars-Replace them all unless you want to keep bringing it back for the next year. ABS is probably a module. Volvo has lots of issues with this. The ABS/Tracs control module has solder joints that go bad in the control module 99% of the time it is th...

Key won't come out of ingnition 1999 Volvo V70 Key wont release from the ignition when the car is off. It is in park. Abs and service light is on. At this point the vehicle starts and drives so Im not sure what I should do. I had the same problem and found that if I made sure the button on the shift lever is out all the way the key would come out. Mine was sticking and had to be pulled out, the spring had become weak on the shift knob. Sound like 2 issues. Ignition key maybe that the cable to the shifter is out of adjustment. If the cable is out of adjustment/broken the key will not come out. ABS is probably a module. Volvo has lots of issues with this. The ABS/Tracs control module has solder joints that go bad in the control module 99% of the time it is the issue. Have the module repaired/replaced. Jiggle the steering wheel while trying to remove the key. Some cars, you have to push in and turn to a full off position before you can remove the key. ...

2004 Volkswagen New Beetle  Where is the transmission code located on the car? The code letters on an automatic transaxle are on a metal plate near where the transaxle butts up against the engine. The stamped transaxle type is in the metal of the housing, away from the engine and closer to the front wheel. Both the code letters and tight become visible by your raising the vehicle up onto jack stands and viewing from underneath.

ABS light stays on This solution is for every car owner with an ABS problem (e.g. Brake System Warning Light). Does the... 1)ABS warning light comes on occasionally while driving, warning light turns off next time you start the car, eventually the light comes back on if you drive long enough 2)ABS light comes on seconds or minutes after starting or even moving your car 3)ABS sensors have been replaced, ABS controller has been replaced, and ... the problem returns, sometimes soon, sometimes later 4)ABS warning light refuses to act up in front of your mechanic 5)ABS mechanic has no idea what is wrong 6)ABS brake have no leaks to be found, the brake fluid levels are normal and the brake pads pass inspection but the light comes on My solution will not solve all ABS system warning light problems, but it may solve very many and save many dollars.

2000 Mazda 626 blows light white smoke after reaching 50mph I have 2000 Mazda 626 that has been sitting for a few months.. The car runs and starts good no lights on panel on.. The battery has been disconnect since it hasn't been in use.. from time to time i start it and move it.. all fluids are full no leaks. Belts have been changed fluids as well.

Basically it needs tuning and / or cleaning, you can a try an Internal Engine Cleaner Crc Motor Treatment 16 6.55 eBay. and see if that helps, i understand your worries about the headgasket of water problems, the best way to tell is to take your oi...

1991 mazda 626 runs great but will not stop burning oil and white smoke keeps coming out of the exuast pipe It sounds like two different problems. White smoke is indicative of water in the fuel. If it was oil burning the smoke would be blue. The oil may be leaking out. Is there evidence of oil leakage on the road when you park? Check the engine for for oil leaks.  There are additives available at auto parts stores that deal with water in the fuel supply.  Did you check you cooling? The white smoke is from water, but I do not think that much water is in the fuel line. If you lost cooling water then your head gasket is leaking, water goes into the cylinder(s).

Lexus es300 1999 model is bring out black smoke from exuast and I have change brain box, air filometer, but it did not stop Have you checked fault codes? There are so many things that could be causing it, checking and repairing any codes would be a start.

Code p1135 what wrong help,toyota 2000,highlander 2000 toyota highlander 6 cylinder,code p1135 That code is specific to the Air-Fuel Ratio (A/F) Sensor Heater Circuit Malfunction (Bank 1 Sensor 1) P1135 Trouble Area: Open or short in A/F sensor (bank 1, sensor 1) A/F sensor (bank 1, sensor 1) heater ECM.

Getting code p1135 and p1155 on toyota rav4 2002 Here's what the codes mean: P1135 Air/Fuel Sensor Heater Circuit Response (Bank 1 Sensor 1) P1155 Air/Fuel Sensor Heater Circuit. (Bank 1 Sensor 2 This is mainly related to the oxygen sensors. It maybe the sensors themselves or an open wire going to te sensors. They are mainly located on the exhaust pipe. One before and on after the catalytic converter. Try the bottom two my bottom 2 went as well. The sensors on top are referred to as air/fuel sensors or "wide band" sensors. The sensors on the bottom (after the cat) are O2 sensors. Bank 1 is the pipe that comes from cylinder #1 and bank 2 is the pipe that incorporates cylinder #2.

How to find timing belts marks toyota rav4 2l Can not find proper timing marks to set timing belt on toyota rav4 2 liter. I have just replaced my water pump on my 1998 RAVE4, also, the timing belt and the other two belts. I had a tough time with the timing marks. The way you line these marks up is easy if you take the time, First, if you are changing the timing belt you pull the balancer and both top and bottom plastic covers,(do not try to pull top cover off before you take off balencer and the motor mount off or you will just break it.), Second after covers are removed you will have access to the timing belt, you can now remove it by loosening the tensioner bolt and pushing down on the tensioner wheel, the belt then can be taken off. Third take out number one sparkplug and replace the bottom cover by maybe two bolts so that you can see marks on cover, next replace the balancer and bolt. Turn the motor over by hand with the balancer so the small divit on the back of the balan...

Blinking light on dash board I have a arrow blinking on my dash board. It does'nt blink all the time but when it does, the car seem to start out in 4th or 5th gear. I have a 1999 volvo s70 It may be possible that your Park Neutral Position Switch (PNP Switch) is getting ready to fail. The switch is located right on top of your transmission and is connected to your shifter. This is a common problem. I doubt that your entire transmission is failing, because that is rare with the S70 line. Has your check engine light come on? The check engine light can be triggered by the failing PNP switch. You should take the car to a autozone if you do not have a code reader to see if this problem is sending a code to the computer. If you are unsure where the port is for the code reader, it is located inside of the center console armrest and has OBD II on it. It will same something such as Transmission position switch failure....if I can remember correctly when it happened to me. If i...

97 Chevy Suburban: 4wd..idling..the brake pedal, the engine..rough My parents have a 97 Chevy Suburban 4wd. The brakes are hard to push down on and require more pressure to stop the vehicle. Also, while idling and pressing the brake pedal, the engine runs very rough. I'm thinking that it is a vacuum leak of some sort. Could it be? Are there any simple test that I can do to narrow down the problem? Is there a check valve or some other thing that is common for a Suburban that can be replaced simply? Or could it be the master cylinder? Any help would be great. Thanks. Check the link below for Answer: http://www.justanswer.com/chevy/2ivnt-parents-97-chevy-suburban-4wd-brakes-hard.html
