eRex: both fans start up when commanded either by the engine ECU or the a/c ecu . |
| Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by eRex(m): 1:40pm On Aug 20, 2019 |
GAZZUZZ:so i guess it is fine right...? Both fan runs consistently from start to stop.. (non stop) |
| Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 4:44pm On Aug 20, 2019 |
eRex: in some instances i would leave it like that. Depends on the state of your engine and accessories. Factory state is fan that is powered on intermittently and not consistently |

GAZZUZZ:Camry Tiny light 6 plug. one fan was not working while the engine was on so i got my mechanic to change it with a tokunbo. it worked but after 2 days i noticed the same thing. he brought another one and connected it NOT from the same line. but after a while i noticed the same thing. then i read from a write up that some car engines get to a particular temperature before the second fan switch on automatically and then off when the engine get cooled to a particular temp. |

GAZZUZZ:Thanks although I guess it not factory state. The temperature only gets to 1/2 if I'm on AC or o top speed.... On slow cruise, it's not up to 1/2 |

Honda city 2007 Auto with cvt gear. Issue. Car has been parked for over a month. Prior to parking, car had no issue. Tried to start car two days ago but realised the battery was flat. Tried to jump-start. Car started, ran for about 10 seconds and went off. All efforts to restart proved abortive. Bought another battery and tried again but car won't start. No check engine light. Replaced all coils and plugs. There is spark on all plugs when tested. Fuel pump hums as should and fuel flowed out of the fuel line when opened. Fuel pressure okay as per what I saw. The replacement plugs got wet after periods of cranking and were dried and brushed clean and reinstalled. Hand held scanner showed the rpm to be about 200rpm during cranking. I don't know what else to do. I have called a mechanic who said that there may be low compression. This engine has 95000km on the odo. Is this possible at this mileage? What should I look out for? |

9icetoo: check all fuses. Especially IGN1 and IGN 2 fuses. |
| Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by MotorGuru: 12:55pm On Aug 21, 2019 |
9icetoo: Check all fuses at engine bay area. Especially IGN1 and IGN 2 fuses. |

olenyi: I need some rims. Where is your shop? |
| Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by magikalz(m): 5:20pm On Aug 21, 2019 |
GAZZUZZ: Boss, I didnt hear from you again concerning the attached image. This component is detached from somewhere. What is the implication?

| Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 5:38pm On Aug 21, 2019 |
magikalz: poor fuel economy |
| Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by magikalz(m): 9:37pm On Aug 21, 2019 |
GAZZUZZ: Thanks |
| Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by olenyi: 12:28am On Aug 22, 2019 |
Johnsonkeyz2019: Meaning getting a replacement wouldn't break the bank. You should change it. Regards. |
| Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by 9icetoo(m): 4:13am On Aug 22, 2019 |
MotorGuru:Fuses checked out okay. Poured oil into the plug hole and fried turning over the engine. Engine refused to turn over meaning its got good compression. Poured fuel into air filter, connected battery to jump starter and cranked engine. Well after ten minutes of cranking with breaks in between, engjne finally sputtered to life. The smoke from the exhaust was hilarious. I tot for a second that the car was on fire.  All is well now. Just couldn't understand why it refused to start in the first place. |

The radiator fan of my 2007 Honda Accord i4 stopped working, making the car to overheat. But when the AC is turned on, both fans come on. A fuse was changed and it seemed the car was okay, but the issue came up again the next day. the rewire is asking that I change the thermostat. Does the thermostat affect the working of the radiator fan? I was thinking it would be the Coolant temperature sensor. Would appreciate if anyone could help me out. |

Hello. I drive a Toyota Camry 2010 model (Muscle). I recently filled my AC after about a month of not using it. On the day it was filled, while driving back home, i noticed that my car's idle was rough. On Monday on my home from work, the car went off in traffic and took a while before coming back on. I've called my mechanic but i don't trust him anymore, he seems to always be interested in 'eating' my money. Please what could be the problem. Please note that the car runs normally when i don't use the AC. Also i noticed my headlights now shake slightly. I noticed this lastnight on my way home. When i rev, they get brighter. and the tire pressure light won't go off even after ensuring my tires are well inflated. |

All guru in d house i great u all (almighty gazzuz, oga kingrein, baba motoguru, and other i cnt mention). My almera tino recently just refused to move as b4. I was told by a mechanic that its either d fuel pump (which i doubt), or the air flow sensor. Wen i got to where to by them, d ibo guy open my bonet &disconnected some cables. Asked me to start d car bt d car refused to start. He said, its air flow sensor. He reconnected d cable and ask me to start. B4 i started d car, he said d car wont raise &it doesnt raise as said. He eventually did it &it raise. I went for scanning and these code came up p0605-internal control module read only memory error p1121-manufacturer control p0221-throttle/pedal position sensor/switch B circuit range/performance |

My 2001 V6 highlander check engine light is on. After scanning I got these error codes; P0141, P0325, P0330 and P1155. Hope it doesn't have much effects on the performance of the car. I just bought it Nigerian used |
