Q: no spark

It is very possible you may have a vacuum leak causing a rough idle and too much air on acceleration causing sputtering and rough running issues. A smoke check of the induction system would be a good idea. Reading the...

The anti-theft system may be experiencing a fault, and in most cases, will store a code pointing to the problem component. Your symptoms are also close to those of a failing starter assembly. In this case, the vehicle may start...

Many drivers with your same truck have had issues with the transfer case encoder motor. There will be a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) that can be retrieved with a scan tool to indicate a problem in this system. There is...

Hello. It sounds like it may have a failing alternator (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/alternator-replacement). If the alternator is failing or if the belt is loose due to a bad belt tensioner (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/drive-belt-tensioner-replacement) then this will occur. I would check and see if the...

Yes, this is a safety issue. This means the parking brake may be broken, installed incorrectly, or out of alignment. This also means the brake may not be working to its full potential, or at all. The parking brake lever...

Hello. The symptoms you describe are typical of a faulty starter or starter solenoid. If the starter motor or solenoid wear out internally they may no longer be able to start the engine properly. A common trick is to tap...

Hello - this recommend seems unusual.

Off-roading or trailer...

Hi there. It is very rare for an ECU to fail completely, unless something dramatic happens to cause this to occur; such as attaching battery cables backwards or flood damage / excessive exposure to water. Unfortunately, the best way to...

Hi there. With the CVT system, there could be multiple internal transmission components or sensors that are causing this type of problem. However, it's also possible that simply flushing the transmission fluid and changing the filter would resolve this problem....
