inside transmision

you should at least add enough to get it to the full line on the dip stick. Depending on the mileage on the transmission, sometimes if you actually have the transmission serviced it will cause more problems than you had before. High Mileage - top it off and drive it.

This can get expensive! There are a few visible screws that need to be taken out first. Next you will have to get a trim removal tool - looks like a flat prybar. Around the front, rear and bottom of the door panel there are door panel retainers on the back side of the panel. These have to be pried out to get the door panel loose. On my 2002 Caravan these were $10 each to replace so be careful when removing them. Once the panel is loose push up on it to release it from the top part of the door frame. The pic is a little different style and much cheaper but you get the idea.

Yes the light will go back off. However it will take some time. The average vehicle will rerun the monitor checks every 10 key starts. The other thing you can do is disconnect the battery for a minute. But if no rush for an echeck then just be patient and it will go out.

Sell it?????

First drain the oil from the supply tank . A good time to inspect and clean out any dirt. Next clean around the fittings of the line you are removing ,we don't want any dirt to enter the system. Then remove the line, it will be held in place by clips that have to be undone be sure to fit them to the new line. If there is a inline oil filter replace it now. Fill the supply tank with new power steering oil to the full mark . jack the front up till the wheels are off the ground, fit safety jacks. Start engine ,turn steering from lock to lock to bleed out air and top up supply tank.

You can see the fittings on the end of the new hose

Failed Transaxle--- has to be rebuilt The differential in it is whinning & also maybe the torque converter Fluid Level okey? Engine Howl-no idea Alternator Bracket---take it off & weld (braze) on a nut, where the threads are gone 1999 vehicle---15 years old or more Just maybe time to put it to sleep & move on to a non van type & much safer vehicle,anything but a van

Have to diagnose the problem,like all vehicle issues Without a wiring diagram, you can't do much,where would you start your testing Have to use a volt meter & do a parasitic current drain test,to find the circuit that fails to go to sleep That test is on You Tube Video If your doors are locking, why would you not go to your owners manual & pull the fuse to that circuit,then get a diagram, to see what is in the circuit,learn that,then test to find the problem

Check fuses.

Best guess :Check the speed sensor on the transmission, these fail.

This is normal and there should even be a warning label near the fan shroud. It is cooling the radiator and as long as it eventually does go off there is nothing to worry about.

some air con systems have a pollin filter in the ac system . I would recommend changing that as well as check the condensation out let pipe to the out side off the vehicle . some time that drain may be blocked , a dust gun can help un block in short bursts of air . hope this is of some help
