Q: How do I turn on the headlights?

The automatic headlights require the sun sensor on the dash and rear view mirror to work correctly. The issue could also stem from a faulty automatic headlight switch module. I recommend having a mechanic, such as one from YourMechanic, run...

Yes, it's a good cleaner and additive (https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/a-guide-to-motor-oil-additives_2). I know people who have used it. It's very good on old junkers that have lots of problems and they clean them out. It's not a miracle. A lot of times, people...

The relays are turned on by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) by grounding the control wire of the relays. The PCM needs input from the engine coolant sensor above the water pump to sense whether the engine is overheating before...

Hello - the P0335 (https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/p0335-obd-ii-trouble-code-crankshaft-position-sensor-a-circuit-malfunction-by-spencer-clayton) problem code you extracted indicates a crank position was not detected. This usually means the crankshaft position sensor has failed, which will cause the sudden stall you experienced, but can also mean the electrical system...

This is often a sign of low transmission fluid (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/transmission-fluid-service) or a faulty transmission control solenoid. As you know, automatic transmissions use pressurized hydraulic fluid to change gears. Every time a gear change is required, the car's computer activates a...

Hello, thank you for writing in. The fact the solenoid continuously fails may indicate that electrical side or mechanical side behind it is not working properly. You can do two things to start off diagnostics. First, considering the interaction with...

The starter is above the oil filter and opposite the A/C compressor (on the same "side" of the engine as the A/C compressor). The starter may be obscured by a splash shield that indeed must be removed to replace the...

Hi Gridpa1. Thanks for submitting your question tonight. There are several things that could be causing this type of noise. Most common is that a rear stabilizer bar bushing is starting to wear, but with only 50,000 miles on a...

You can use a universal hanger to support the exhaust to keep it from hanging down. You may need to use a clamp and hanger to attach the pipe to the frame support mount.
