Q: Help

Hi. Looking at the wiring diagram for your vehicle, I see that the daytime running lights (DRL) were only available in Canada. So, I'm not sure if you mean the DRL or the headlights and tail lamps. Regardless, the factory...

Confirm the basics first: Does it have spark at the plugs (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/spark-plugs-replacement)? Does it have compression?

Hello, thanks for writing in. Both the battery and the alternator may be at fault. The light turns on any time low voltage is detected. That being said, both are easy enough to test. Most automotive parts stores will test...

You should have the fuel checked to see if there is water in the fuel. This will cause misfires. If fuel is not the issue and you already replaced ignition components then suspect clogged injectors. For the transmission slip this...
