Camry :: Cloudy Film Seems To Be Inside Of Each Headlight

I just purchased a used 07 Camry. We love it but the headlights look very strange. There is a cloudy film on what seems to be the inside of each headlight, some areas are worse than others.

I would like to replace them (mostly for resale value later on) but wanted to post here before I drop a whole bunch of money on new headlamp mounts.

Passat (B5) :: 1998 - Headlights Getting Cloudy With External Film

I have noticed that the headlights/protective lenses in my 98 Passat have gotten very cloudy. When i rub my fingers on them you can feel kind of a rough surface.

The performance has obviously diminished and I would like to try to buff them.

A friend told me that it is caused by the ultraviolet rays from the sun and indeed the car has spent a lot of time outdoors. Any good plastic cleaners to do the job without having to replace the headlight assembly??

Prius (Gen 3) :: 2015 - Oil Change Door From Main Protective Panel Under The Car

I've had 2 Priuses 2010 lose the oil change door from the main protective panel under the car. Many have posted about this design flaw. My question is: Does the 2015 Prius also have this potential problem? I remember reading forum posts about the TSB regarding this issue on the 2010 which I was too late to take advantage of. I would rather address this now before my warranty expires on my 2015.

Buick - Century :: Climate Control System - No Air Blowing Through Outlets On Instrument Panel

There’s a problem with my climate-control system. When I turn the fan on, there is no air blowing through the outlets on the instrument-panel. (There is air blowing thru the 2 vents immediately above the floor, and some air blowing at the base of the windshield). This problem exists regardless of what speed I turn the fan on, and regardless of which climate-control setting I choose (or whether I turn on the A/C).

This problem WAS occurring on an intermittent basis, and seemed to develop in RESPONSE TO my turning the knob to “defrost.” Now, however, the problem seems to be permanent. I wonder whether the basic problem is with the round knob that controls the various climate-control settings, as this knob seems somewhat hard to turn.

I have a 2004 Buick Century sedan, with automatic transmission (4speed) w/overdrive, V-6 engine 3.1 L.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 F250 - No Power To Climate Control Panel

First off my vents stopped blowing completely. At this time the thermostat was still functioning. Fuse 28 was blown. I replaced the fuse and it blew again shortly after turning the heater on. I replaced the relay and resistor and still blowing fuses. For some reason I tried a 30A fuse and it didn't blow but a few minutes after turning on the heater there was a burning smell. I immediately turned it off and pulled the fuse back out, which was hot. I then replaced the blower motor and at this point there is no power at all to the control panel. The fuses are all fine as well as the relay and resistor. There's power to the fuses. So it seems like somewhere between the fuse box and the control panel I'm losing power.

Passat (B7) :: 2012 - Reprogramming Climate Control High Temperature

Is it possible to change/reprogram the "HIGH" temperature on the 2012 Passat SEL climate control? I generally like to keep the temperature a bit warmer during the summer than the climate control is able. The selected temperature changes to "HI" above 80 degrees and turns on the heater. What I would like is to change the point that the climate control rolls to "HI" by several degrees, say 85 degrees.

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: Way To Avoid ICE While Turning On Climate Control?

I've found it difficult trying to turn on the climate control in EV mode without engaging the ICE, especially on sunny mornings where it might be relatively cool outside (about 16-18 C/60-65 F) but the cabin is heating up quickly. I usually have it set to around 20-23 C (68-73 F) but usually in these conditions the ICE will start immediately after turning on the fans (AC off). How to avoid this? Or do I just need to set the climate control to "Lo" at the end of my previous journey? I've never been able to turn down the temperature quickly enough after turning it on without the ICE starting.

Camry :: 2008 - Climate Control Reset When Car Started

The automatic climate control of my 2008 Camry is on the blink. When I start the car, the "front defrost" light blinks and I cannot control the climate control. Is it resetting? Or is it downloading something from the central processor? After it stops blinking, I can turn the climate control on "Auto" but it goes to 75 degrees not the temperature it was at when I shut the car off (is this the factory setting?). I can change temperature and modes just fine from that point.

When I turn the car off for a few minutes and then back on the climate control works normal. It retains the temperature I set before I turned the car off and starts up like normal. But if the car is off for an extended period, the climate control goes through its "reset" routine before I can set it. How does the climate control retain the previous setting while the car is off? Is it connected to the main battery or does it have its own that needs to be replaced? Is there some logic that tells a controller to take the climate control off the circuit after being off for an extended period?

Camry :: 2007 Gen 6 LE - Climate Control Bulb Replacement

I own a 2007 Camry LE and one bulb behind the temperature dial is burned out. It is the bulb for the indicator on the outside edge of the dial. I am curious how to remove the panel and rotary dial to access and replace the bulb. I've searched the forums but cannot find a description with pictures (hope I didn't miss it somewhere).

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2012 - Remote Start Climate Control?

I can't seem to get my heated seats to come on when I use the remote start. Is this possible? I assume the supplemental heater comes on behind the scenes. Is there a temperature differential between the climate setting and the outside temperature? If so what is the delta? If it's 40 degrees outside and my climate is set at 60 degrees...will the supplemental heater come on? How about the rear window defroster and heated seats, can I make them come on when remote started? Same question for the seat cooling...in a few months.

My truck is a 2012 Ultimate Lariat 6.7L ......

Camry :: 2005 XLE - Auto Climate Control Defrost Indicator

My '05 XLE has a small problem (I think). Had the car for just over a year and yesterday noticed that when I choose the defrost mode there is no indicator on the control panel to show it's in that mode. All the other function positions have indicator icons to show what mode is selected.

I don't use the defrost only mode very often and now wonder if it never worked since I've owned it or if there isn't an indicator for defrost mode. Isn't there an indicator for that mode?

Camry :: 2011 - Climate Control Fault / AC Not Initializing Properly On Engine Startup

I have a 2011 Camry. The last few weeks, I've had an intermittent issue with the AC not initializing properly on engine startup and I get no AC. The AC light will be on, the blower works normally, but changing the AC/heat blend dial has no effect, I get full heat no matter what the setting.

The only way to make the AC come back on is turn the car off and restart. On ignition, instead of the climate control cluster lights and the blower coming on immediately, the rear defrost light will blink amber for about 10 seconds before the climate control system initializes and usually, the AC will come on at that point.

I had it into the shop and they could not figure out what was going on. No computer codes. They finally said the compressor current was spiking over spec and replaced it. However, two days later and it's happening again, worse than ever in that it took like six restarts for the system to initialize properly this morning after I pulled over because I was getting roasted.

Ford F-150 (2009-2014) :: 2012 XLT - Control Panel / Audio / Blower And Key Fob Failure

So I have a 2012 xlt 5.0l single cab. Standard heat/ac with the non-navigation sync system. The blower and heat dosent work. The radio doesn't work on fm or Bluetooth. For the most part the screek doesn't say anything but if I hit the power button on the stereo the time pops up for a second. The key fob also doesn't work. When I click on the font the center console will light up but nothing will happen. The key doesn't work in the door but I'm not sure if it ever did. Intermittently it all comes back on and works just fine but cuts out again. A few times hitting the dash has made it all come back on. When it all isn't working and I press the eject button on the stereo the deck tries to spit something out and it says eject on the screen so I know the screen and the cd part of the stereo are getting power all the time. The Bluetooth doesn't work and the USB port doesn't work or charge my phone. The lights on the center console are all working but it doesn't dim when I dim the dash. I am baffled on what it could be and the harness is impossible to follow.
