    SOURCE: diagram bypass heater cord on 2001 ford expedition eddie bauer

    the heater bypass is quite simple, if you look at the firewall you will see two medium sized coolant lines, remove them from the firewall and link them together using a proper sized tube, you can purchase a kit at a parts store quite cheaply

    this is always caused by a failed/worn out reverse clutch pack, you must remove the trans and have it overhauled to correct this failure.

    Side View Mirror Installation instructions needed

    For a 2005 Honda Pilot, I am a complete Amateur and I had no problem installing this mirror.

    1) Lower the window, and only remove the Interior MIRROR panel, NOT the entire DOOR Panel, as some sites my recommend.
    2) Once the Interior Panel is removed, the power cable is attached to the mirror, remove this cable.
    3) There are 3 Bolts that are BLACK (atleast in my vehicle) that need to be removed.
    3) Once the bolts are removed, the mirror should come off easily.
    4) Place the new mirror in place of the old one and secure all three bolts, and then secure the power cable.
    5) Then place the interior panel back.

    That is it!

    2. Pry off power window switch panel and remove door panel screw at this area.
    3.Remove interior door light cover and remove screw at this area.

    7. Disconnect mirror power at coupler.
    8 Loosen three mirror mounting screws with 7/16 socket. DO NOT unscrew completely.. the will fall down the door cavity. Use a round magnet on holder to remove the screws completely.
