check battery connection if is loose?_______________-vcm ids

If every thing set correctly you might forgot to plug the wire to the coilor fuse and relay.Mai Lor

Someone would need to troubleshoot the circuit to find the short to ground.

It could be the thermostat or the water pump. Even if your heater core were plugged, the engine would not overheat from it, you would just have no heat. And if the thermostat were stuck closed, but the heater core was good, you would still get heat from heater while the engine was overheating. So it kind of points toward the water pump, unless neglect had allowed both the heater core to plug and the thermostat to stick closed. I mean neglect from not regularly changing the coolant every two years about.Overheating can be as simple as a low coolant level, so you should check that, and check for leaks.Before you go for the cost to replace the water pump, you should first have the system pressure tested, or have a compression test done to check the internal condition of the engine and to make sure you don't have a blown head gasket. Good luck.

The P2422 means Evaporative Emission System Vent Valve Stuck Colsed. I just know that, hope it can help you!______________OBDII code reader

Look to see if it have a color line on it some plug have color line on it to match them up ..if not look in a Hayes book for the year of your car there my be a wireing picture of it..

What's the problem?

Remove and replace them one at a time is the only suggestion.

Sounds like a miss - is the check engine light on too ?

Hi there:Check the brake fluid level in the master cylinder. This is the only other thing that will turn that light on. There is a float inside the master and if it is low, the light will come on. Be sure to check and make sure the float comes up when you top it off.Hope helps.

3. Install the timing belt in the following order:
   1. Crankshaft sprocket
   2. Idler pulley
   3. Left bank exhaust camshaft sprocket
   4. Left bank intake camshaft sprocket
   5. Water pump pulley
   6. Right bank intake camshaft sprocket
   7. Right bank exhaust camshaft sprocket
   8. Tensioner pulley
4. Install the auto tensioner. Do not remove the retaining pin at this time.
5. Check that the crankshaft and camshaft timing marks are aligned correctly.
6. Rotate the crankshaft 1 / 4 turn Counterclockwise .
7. Rotate the crankshaft 1 / 4 turn Clockwise to return the engine to TDC.
8. Loosen the tensioner pulley center bolt.
9. Apply 44 inch lbs. (5 Nm) torque to the tensioner pulley as shown and tighten the center bolt to 32-41 ft. lbs. (43-55 Nm).
