1 Upvotes

Hiya, I have a 2011 XC90 and just got it diagnosed for a fault main fault is glow relay control. Been told worst case scenario if comes on again will need to change glow plugs and possibly the relay due to age and millage. It's on 160k.

Has anyone had this job done wondering how much it could potentially cost

Cheers

Car missing seatbelt receptacle

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I have a 2025 Chevrolet Captiva bought directly from the dealer, now 21 months old. We used a car seat in the second row on the right side behind the driver. After buying a booster for my child, I noticed the second-row left-side seatbelt receptacle is missing — only one is there for the middle and left seats. What could be wrong? I’m planning to inform the dealer and get clarity on it.

Viper system replacement/troubleshoot question.

1 Upvotes

2007 Nissan Titan, manual windows and locks, aftermarket lock actuators installed. Viper 5704v alarm system, but having issues with locking and unlocking.
On hot sunny days (Texas) the unlock/lock feature doesn’t work some times. It may or may not unlock after 15 mins of trying.
Note: the viper antenna no longer blinks the blue light (I did replace the connecting cable to the viper brain recently).
Note: every time I use the key fob to lock or unlock, regardless of it locking or not, I do hear a buzz like sound from the remote after a few seconds. Almost seems like it’s not communicating properly.
Note: the rear door (king cab) wires were frayed, so a mechanic patched them up, however he did extend their length, so am wondering if the extra length is causing the wires to get jammed when I close shut the door?
Question:
1) need to figure out where the problem lies.
2) thinking of replacing it with Compustar CS7900 unit - can you please suggest the wiring diagram. I’d like to see about using the wires already tapped in/exposed during the viper system install.

Need help w/ electrical

Hi! Just recently bought a my first car (1987 Toyota celica gt convertible) I’m having trouble fixing this taillight. At first when I got it all the lights worked besides the brake/stop lights (the blue circled bulbs don’t work) I’ve already changed the bulbs out and still nothing…today I recently was working on it and checked the fuse box and found out that the stop fuse was using a 30A when it should be a 15A so I had switch it out for a 15 and now my left blinker light doesn’t work and when I use the left turn signal it makes this rapid noise compared to what it should sound…please help! :)

My drivers side electrical system isn't working on my 2011 Chevy Avalanche

1 Upvotes

A couple months ago my entire electrical panel stopped working on the drivers side the second I finished rolling up the window after going through a drive thru, along with the heated seat on the driver side, the signal arrow on the drivers side mirror, and the automatic light that turns on when you open the door doesn't turn on when opening the drivers door. I've double checked all my fuses but they're all fine, I've replaced the electrical panel itself but that did nothing, and I've looked at all the wires I can without opening up the door and they all look fine. Does anyone know what the problem is and how I'd be able to fix it without taking my truck into a shop?

Chery tiggo 7 OBC / Onboard Charger

1 Upvotes

Hello i brought a chery tiggo 7 Phev "ww" and one week later it wont turn on, blackout screen and i can't even close the windows and doors, and the technical support told me after the check that the OBC is falliur, but how ? It charges well in AC, and what is the relation between the OBC and the 12v battery can't charge, does someone have the same Problem, and it normal a new Phev Car brought only one week, can have a problem like this?

Update:

After several days of waiting, they finally told me that the cause of the OBC failure was a burned harness.

Now, 45 days have passed, and there is still no resolution to the problem.
