2003 Chevy Astro - Passenger van, with factory roof rails - Base Rack System - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
Thumping coming from rear end of chevy astro van
This could be a few things but always start with the basics (and cheapest). Check the tires for broken belts. If the tires are worn smooth, don't run your hand on them, you could get a sliver of steel belt in them (it hurts, trust me). If they aren't worn that much, run your hand over the tread and see if you feel any bumps.
If the tires seem ok, crawl under and grab the drive shaft. Make sure the van is parked on the level with no load on it (no weight on the parking pin...). If you can move it from side to side or there is play in it, it's probably the carrier bearing. It's not that expensive to fix by a mechanic ($150 roughly) or you could do it yourself with a basic socket set.

Be sure to use suitable materials 3/16th inch wall mild steel and that proper prep work and proper welding procedures are observed and you will have the box serve you well for years to come.
Peugeot expert central locking not working
A faulty central locking system might be due to several reasons, such as a blown fuse, faulty solenoid, or electrical wiring issues. Also, it's good to remember the fault might not be with the central car locking system but the key fob instead; over time, fobs require battery changes.
2001 Cadillac Deville Northstar Engine thermostat location
4.6 Northstar V8. It is located on the rear of engine (driver side) in front. It is in the the water pump housing cover. Remove air box and intake tube and bottom radiator hose. 2 bolts(believe 10mm) on thermostat housing. These systems are a little finicky about air pockets....so fill slowly and let run at idle until operating temp and let cool and check level.....fill as needed and repeat if needed.
1944c Furuno radar array won't spin 7 years old. Just beeping
It seems like you're dealing with a technical issue related to a Furuno radar array. If the radar array is not spinning and is emitting a beeping sound, there could be several possible reasons for this problem. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:
- Check Power Supply: Ensure that the radar array is receiving proper power. Check the power cables, connections, and any fuses that might be relevant. Make sure the power source is functional and providing the correct voltage.
- Inspect Mechanical Components: If the radar array won't spin, there could be a mechanical issue with the rotating mechanism. Check for any obstructions or debris that might be preventing the rotation. Lubricate any moving parts if necessary.
- Connection and Wiring: Examine the connections between the radar array and its control/display unit. Loose or damaged cables could cause communication problems and result in the array not spinning. Ensure all connections are secure and undamaged.
- Software and Configuration: Sometimes, software settings or configuration options can affect the operation of the radar array. Check the user manual or documentation to ensure that the radar is properly configured. Try resetting the settings to default and see if that resolves the issue.
- Error Codes or Messages: If the radar is emitting beeping sounds, it might be indicating an error condition. Refer to the user manual or any accompanying documentation for a list of error codes or messages and their meanings. This could help pinpoint the problem.
- Contact Support: If you've tried the above steps and the issue persists, it might be best to contact Furuno's customer support or a qualified technician for further assistance. They can provide more specific guidance based on the model of your radar array and the symptoms you're experiencing.
Remember, working with electronic equipment requires caution to avoid electrical hazards. If you're not comfortable troubleshooting the issue yourself, it's always a good idea to seek professional help.
