ahjay: There is not much we can do remotely. You will need an automotive electrician to confirm and restore connections. The AC computer should control the operations of AC . |

Hello Oga Gazzuzz. Am seeing this light on the dash board of my Nissan Almera. And sometimes the parking light refuses to off after parking the car. I will have to remove the battery head. What could be the issue.

Good evening Gazzuzz, the battery of my 2007 hyundai sonata always drains whenever I don't use the car for more than 48hrs. My electrician has told me that it's because the odometer is always on,and that I should also change the alternator. I've just changed the alternator. A little scan we did indicated we change the wheel speed sensor to take care of the odometer light. Is it normal for the odometer to always stay on? Immense thanks for your time |

Car Model: Honda Accord 2004 Car was taken in for routine 6 monthly service. There was a leak which I noticed since about two months ago from the tiny plastic outlet which takes coolant from the radiator to the reservoir. I had to sometime top up the coolant due to the leak. Patching it up wouldn't work well, so, decision was made to change the radiator Following change, it was noticed that radiator fan comes on on ignition (II) and stays on like that (this was not the case before the radiator change). If the radiator fan switch is removed, it goes off and vice versa. The relays and fuse was checked also, no solution. Coolant temperature on OBD II app reads 87°C at all time, in traffic or on highway (it usually reads around 90-95°C prior to this). The car soft copy manual I have says fan is supposed to turn on at 91°C No CEL Any possible solution? In case I have to live with that, what's the cons? (I hate the noise of the fan running continuously though) Thanks |

Phobos19:Wrong radiator installed, fan thermistor bridged. Sadly no one imports the right radiator for this model, and the harness to the thermistor that controls the fan operation has been bridged to make the fan work permanently . 2 Likes |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Phobos19: 6:38am On Oct 18, 2021 |
GAZZUZZ: Thank you. By thermistor, I'm guessing it's the same with the temperature sensor attached to the radiator on the lower right corner. The one the radiator fan switch is connected to. If yes, can the one in the old radiator swapped to the new one? Also, I asked in my op the downside of leaving it like that. Thanks |

@gazzuzz boss good morning, please I noticed that while driving my Honda Jazz 2005, the P on the selected gear indicator blinks. It blinks and goes off. I got the car from my uncle and when I asked him, he said it's been like that for a while, that it's probably a sensor. Please advise. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 10:22am On Oct 18, 2021 |
Oleez: Just a scan required |

Please my car stopped engaging since last Sunday. At first it would drive and stop after a while and would need to turn off the engine for a while then it picks again so I went to scan and it was saying P1768 problem in torque converter clutch solenoid valve b circuit in crv 2004. Please what can I do to fix this? I await a quick response, thank you! |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by winningp: 9:58pm On Oct 19, 2021 |
Pls, for a first time car owner, between Corolla 2007 and 2012 models, which is better in terms of cost of maintenance and durability given that they both have same engine. Thanks |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by seanfer(m): 5:38am On Oct 20, 2021 |
winningp: If you have the money get the 2012. It’s more recent. Get a good one and have peace of mind. 1 Like |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by Grupo(m): 7:43am On Oct 20, 2021 |
winningp: This is not a fair comparison. Cost of maintenance is same for the two cars. Just buy the 2012 if you have the money. 1 Like |
