First check and confirm the fuses related to heater in your car.Fuse #12 (40A) in the under-hood box powers the blower motor. Fuse #14 (10A) in the under-dash box powers the blower motor relay as well as the A/C compressor clutch relay, A/C condenser fan relay, power mirrors, radiator fan relay, recirc. control motor, and rear defogger relay.If the fuses are blown then replace the fuse and check.But if the problem is still there then Its a heater relay problem,.The blower motor relay is in the under-hood fuse box. It's larger than the rest, on the back side, labeled RY6.Remove the relay. With the ignition off, use a 12V tester to locate the constant-power socket, which powers the motor via the relay. Then with the ignition on, locate the switched-power socket, which powers the relay. Verify that neither of the remaining two sockets is powered, then with the ignition off use a continuity light to determine which is ground. The last socket goes to the motor. (If the continuity tester lights on both, it's probably because the motor has fairly high resistance, and you'll need an ohmmeter to determine which socket is ground and which goes to the motor.)With a fused 12V power source, power the relay's coil contacts and check the other two contacts for continuity. If the relay doesn't work, replace. But if the relay is also checked ok.then in that case the blower motor is faulty causing this problem.Make sure it has power at the connector and that the connector is properly seated. If the power and ground connections are fine, then the motor is bad. ----------- This troubleshooting procedure will help you to confirm the possible problem.Thanks.Helpmech.

Need more information.

the starter should be located in the rear bottom of the motor where the transmission and motor connect together

make sure the vehicle is cold, and not running. then check the fluid level. otherwise you will overfill and cause shifting errors.

You don't change an O2 Sensor based on a code
The code only points to an area of a possible issue,such as an out of range sensor.
You then diagnose and test,in your case the O2 Sensor,and replace only if it fails to work correctly.
Why wouldn't you clear the code after replacing,if it was still on,when you started the engine
Buy a cheap code reader

Hi! Two things to look at... Yes it can be the brake switch but please have the neutral switch be checked too. These are the common problem why the shifter stucks. Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa!

it will take 24 hours before you can do it again

ELEMENT WINDOW REGULATOR'S HAS A CABLE THAT MOVES THE GLASS UP AND DOWN THOSE CABLE ARE KNOWN TO GO BAD... REPLACE THE WINDOW REGULATOR NO THE MOTOR

check fuse at back of radio.good look I hope this helps (Rate me answer please)

cable linkage has snapped you need to replace the door cover and replace the linkage good look I hope this helps (Rate me answer please)

do the brake lights work? the shift interlock will keep you from shifting out of park. you might have accidentally unplugged some wiring at the master cylinder when you swapped out the throttle body.

go to a discount parts place and hav it scanned-bad sensors r replaced not fixed

It's not going to take much.
If you know refrigerant theory,it will only go in, if the system is in a vacuum.
You will let air in using the small cans, if you don't purge the air out of the attachment hose.
You have no way of knowing how much is in the system,so leave A/C work to the pros.

My car did the same thing.The code my car gave me was P2646 which is the vtech oil sensor. The parts are about $112 to replace. My Dads a mechanic so I dont know the cost on labor.

The CEL will not turn off by itself. You have several options.

1. Take it to a dealer to clear the code, which will cost $50.00 to $100.00, depending on where you live.

2. Purchase a code reader (Actron makes a couple of nice models for about $150.00), and you'll have it for any future needs.

3. Find a friend who as a code reader and will let you use it.

4. Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery for about 5 minutes. This is a ****-shoot as you can't be certain that the CEL is on because of the O2 sensor. If it was on for some other reason, the light will just come back on after you've driven a few miles. Also when you disconnet the battery, you will need to reset your radio. You should find the reset code on a sticker in your glove box.

i JUST RESET MY THIS MORNING, 45615

Go to Autozone or a similar business to get a free scan of the computer. If no problem is detected, the scanner can extinguish the trouble light. Hope this helps!
