Hi,

Thank you for contacting fixya.com.

The problem is the Freon pressure is low. Get it recharged and the problem should disappear. Also check for stuck heater/water valve.

Please get back to us if you have further query else please accept the suggestion.

to get the rotor off you should even have to remove the 36mm bolt. the rotor should just come off after you remove the caliper. if its the entire spindle assmbly your taking off you will need a pickle fork to seperate it from the joints there are also 2 bolt with cotter pins on the back side.

LET ME GET BACK TO YOU HAVE TO STEP OUT.

When the transmission is in "tow" mode, the converter is unlocked. That causes the engine to run at a higher RPM but also since it's actually slipping internally (by design), it builds heat. If your radiator is the least bit internally obstructed or if you don't have a large enough transmission cooler (mounted externally), or, a combination of both items, everything will get hotter than it should be. Heat is especially bad for your transmission. The fluid chemically breaks down resulting in clutch slippage and burning.
If you do a lot of hauling, I'd get the largest trans cooler available making sure it's attached to the return side of the one inside the radiator and also change the fluid to a good grade of synthetic (resists heat damage far better than conventional fluid). Even if you think it's clean, I'd also flush out the radiator just to make sure.

Sounds like the pump maybe going out i would have it checked out so if the pump is going out it can be fixed and you want loose bands and clutches after it does.

You most likely locked the child lock. They usually have a release button located lower so that a child can't just slide it back.

its on the right side valve cover sitting on top

Usually a bad vent valve, unless your truck doesn't have one. If it does, the vent valve is near the tank attached to a hose from the tank or filler pipe. It has an electrical connector and another hose going to the canister. Sometimes it's mounted to the canister. The valve is usually default open and allows vapors to go from the tank to the canister. Take your off to see if it's open. If you need specific instructions, please reply with your model, year, and engine info. If not, replace it. Please let me know if you have questions, and thanks for using FixYa.

Not sure of your year or model but alot of times a code like that could just be a bad gas cap. That is cheap and easy place to start. You will probably need to have someone turn the light off with a scanner after repalcing the cap. Also depending upon the year and model you have there could be a pressure switch in the top of your fuel module that can fail and cause your code.

I would say that you have some bad bulbs. And not all of them are servicable. If you call the parts department at a dealer they could tell you which ones are. I have several of these trucks at work and I know that on ours the heater control unit light are not sevricable. But I have taken the control units apart and have gone down to Radio Shack an purchased bulbs. You will have to unsolder the old ones out of the circuit board and solder in the new ones. We had to replace the headlight switch because the bulb inside of it went out and was not servicable. Not sure about the instrument panel lights. The panels are easy to remove. I have had several out but not to fix lights so not sure if they are servicable. You can send the whole panel off to be serviced. I have had good luck with Instrument Sales and Service.

this is a "blend door" issue, you will need to take the dash aprt and see if this is due to a bad vacuum line or if the door itself is broken.

I recommend you have the person who installed it fix this. It sounds like when the installer spliced into the tach signal wire, and other wires that they may have broken the wires, preventing the instrument cluster from registering the tach, cruise, etc. If all worked fine before you had this system installed, and now you have these problems, the installer of this system should be responsible for repairing it. If you are experienced with electronics and automobile electrical systems, you could easily find and fix these problems with a multi-meter and some electrical tape. You might also want to check your fuses to see if any have blown that might prevent the operation of the glow plugs, engine, or lights.

look under your vehicles hood on the drivers side, and you should see 1 -2 black box's, these have fuses / and relays inside, remove the plastic covers, and there should be information / diagram explaining what they are and where they are located.

First make sure you didn't put the battery in upside down.

most pumps are in oil pan. remove oil pan and it is attached to under side of engine. remove the boltson oil pump, and thars it. be sure to clean mateing surfaces up good.

If this is an older rear wheel drive vehicle you should have the "U" joints checked is the drive shaft as one may be going bad.
