Accent LC (2000-05) :: 2002 - Hazards / Dash Lights / Radio And Clock All Constantly Flashing On And Off Repeatedly
I'm having an electrical problem that's resulting in the hazards, dash lights, radio and clock all constantly flashing on and off repeatedly. The car starts fine.
When investigating under the hood, I found a wire (pictures below) that wasn't connected to anything. I'm not sure if this is what's causing the problem, but I figured this was a good place to start.
What this wire is supposed to be attached to, and if it has anything to do with the flashing lights I'm experiencing?
What this wire is or possible causes of these flashing lights.
Accord :: 2000 - AC / Heater Control Panel Flashing On And Off Randomly
I have a 2000 accord and the control panel for the AC/heater keeps flashing on and off. When it is off (no lights lit up) it doesn't respond when you push the buttons and semi warm air comes out when I turn the AC on. Randomly, the lights will come back on and it will again be responsive. It usually happens (going on and off randomly) for the first few minutes of turning the car on, but will then stay on.
View 5 RepliesGmc - Sierra :: 2003 - No Cranks Or Clicks / Just Complete Silence
I own a 2003 Sierra 1500 SLT Extended (4-Door) Cab which I bought brand new. It currently has 120k+/- miles on it, but the problem I'm about to describe started about 5 years ago. Here's the issue: Whenever I first attempt to start my truck, I know the odds are 50/50 that it will actually start. When I turn the key, it will either crank right up like it's brand new or it will do nothing at all--no cranks, no clicks, just complete silence. When the weather is colder, the chances it will start are slightly better.
Those chances go downhill as the weather improves--the frequency of "non-starts" increases. I have had a whole lot of mechanics--both physical and virtual--try to diagnose this problem. I even left my truck at a GMC dealership for 4 days so they could replicate the problem and diagnose it. Unfortunately, my truck started on every attempt they made which was 2 or 3 times per day. The only hint of where the problem my lie came from an automotive electronics technician. He said he can't be sure unless he replicates the scenario, but he said the factory installed alarm system is most likely the cause.
Sierra :: 2000 5.3 Sierra Suddenly Overheated In Cold Weather Then Fine
A friend of mine has had this 2000 Sierra since new. It has just over 100K and never had any cooling issues before. Last week when it was about 10 below zero she drove it home and it overheated and pumped a couple quarts of antifreeze overboard.
She refilled it the next day and it was fine but got it looked at by a local independent mechanic. I had told her that it was likely a sticky thermostat and it ought to be changed out anyways due to its age. The mechanic thought I was wrong and that she had driven it off to quickly in the super cold weather.

View 1 RepliesCamry :: Part Of The Shifter Panel Gets Hot Warm
I have a 2007 camry xle and I just noticed that part of the shifter panel, you know where it says P, R, D, etc, gets hot warm to the touch whenever I turn on my headlights instrument lights. Its the back left corner of the shifter panel where the wood trim and the brush aluminum cover meets. I don't drive to much at night so I didn't notice this before.
After about 20 minutes of having the lights on, it start feeling warm. There must be some kind of transistor there that powers the illuminated light of the P, R, D, etc.. Does your panel feel warm after your headlights instrument lights have been on.

I just got my car back from a smashed bumper replacement and it looks like my electrical systems were disconnected and reconnected during repairs. My radio presets were default and the clock was also reset. There is a red blinking light on the lower left panel, below the steering wheel, left side. Next to the VSC/TRAC on/off button. The manual has no indication what this light is. It blinks even when the car is turned off. I have attached a picture also.....

View 5 RepliesSierra :: 2002 - Alternator Started To Make Some Noise And Battery Light Flashing
I have a 2002 with a 4.8 ... My alternator started to make some noise, and my battery wasn't holding a charge very well so i decided to change the alternator today before it went some were out in the boonies. After i put the new alternator in, the battery light started flashing in the "message center" but everything seems to be running fine. The voltage gauge in the dash is reading about 15. So from there I turned everything on in the truck and the gauge barely dropped. At this point I'm not sure what to do, I'm going to put the old one back on and see if it goes out, oh I also put some tension on the belt to make sure it wasn't slipping.

View 1 RepliesFord Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Gear Shifter Jammed In Park After Startup
I've been having an ongoing problem with the gear shifter jammed in park after startup. I changed the brake switch and installed a new ignition switch to try fix the problem. Later, I noticed the battery indicator gauge was flat lined even though the truck was running. Out of sheer frustration, I banged the bottom of the steering wheel and suddenly the battery indicator jumped to life and the truck went into gear again.
I took off the panel beneath the steering wheel off to look for any obvious loose wires but found none. This sounds strange but at first, the problem occurred more in the mornings when the weather was cold outside. No, it seems that the battery indicator will flat line while I'm driving in all weather conditions but jumps back up when I tap the steering wheel. I've included a video on youtube to illustrate the problem.

When ever I park my 2001 Toyota Prius for a long time in a sunny weather it gets hot inside and outside. When I want to start the car all the front panel lights and alarms will go ON. I still can drive the car without any problem. I could not get any code with the OBD2 sensor. All I can do is to delete the code. Again it just happens when the weather is HOT.
View 4 RepliesFord Aerostar :: Transmission Code P1744 - No Flashing Overdrive Light On Shifter
I got this code and symptoms of 1-2 hard shift and no torque converter lockup. No flashing overdrive light on shifter. If I switch off engine all shifts are smooth until I pass 45mph. I would feel the TCC lockup. This doesn't happen the as i come to a stop I get a harsh 2-1 shift. Key off restart then shifts smoothly up and down provided I dont exceed the TCC lockup speed. This leads me to the TCC solenoid I think. Fluid has been changed regularly.
Had to drive 300 miles to get home. Only for the plate trans cooler the fluid would have overheated as on inclines on cruise control the engine would rev to 3k to keep the speed at 70mph and I could see the fluid temp increasing. Fuel consumption was very bad almost a full tank (with no ac). Doing some research there is talk about valve gasket blowout Epc solenoids etc, though these were for Rangers and Explorers, no real mention of Aerostar.
