Broken hood realease...how do i open the hood?
Without having worked on particular model of the car it makes it rather difficult however almost all vehicles have a grill in the front. Get some long needle nose pliers and a flashlight, you may be able to see the wire that goes to the hood release. It may be broken in the cab near the release handle or near the latch itself...either way if you can grip the wire with the needle nose pliers and pull it near the hood latch it should open the hood. Keep in mind you only want to pull the wire itself and not the plastic covering around it. It's kind of like the brakes on a bicycle. Look at your bicycle brakes and it should be a similar wire. You just want to pull the center strand of wire to pop the hood latch. Make sure you pull it in the direction it was meant to travel by the way. (most likely toward the driver side fender). Sometimes if you have a friend who can pound on the hood slightly with his fist while you are pulling the wire it will help pop the hood latch. This isnt always necessary but quite a few times they tend to stick and I've always found it helps pop the hood easier. Also it may be a good idea to lubricate the hood latch and wire with some WD-40 before trying this...there is a good chance the wire may have broke because it was rusted or corroded in the first place and if that's true the hood latch may need some lubrication to unlatch. Good luck.
Starter wires on a 98 chevy prisam what dose the colors constist of
Unsure of th colours.
But you should have 2 cables.
He starter takes earth from the casing and engine mount.
You will have a heavy 'red' cable going to one side of the solenoid 12v+
Then you will have a little lighter (smaller gauge) cable that triggers the solenoid.
Daytime running lights stay on constantly
if you don't care to have the daytime running lights on at all. look for a fuse that is in your owner manual for the daytime running lights and remove it and see if your lights turn off .... but every thing else works in your car .... there are many things that could cause this problem to happen like faulty daylight running lights module is bad or your parking brake switch is not work proper to with the daytime running light circuit one thing you can try when the emergency brake is pushed the daytime running lights always in all cars should turn off ... to be honest you need to get a wiring diagram from the chevy dealer and follow the diagram to find out which part is bad and cause this issue cause there are fuses and relay and modules that make this system work right ..... if you dont understand the wiring diagram you will have to take your car to a electrical person who fixes only electrical problems not a mechanic ..... if you find the fuse that turns off the daytime running lights and everything else works leave it cause you still will have headlights and parking lights and dash lights by turning on the light switch at night
