    Brake and ABS warning lights

    Hi all, I have had this problem for a long time. When the engine is warm or the weather is warm the ABS/Brake lights come on. I replaced the speed sensor in the rear dif, but no effect. The speedometer functions normally. There are no warning lights when I startup and drive with a cold engine...

    Rear brake adjustment hole knockouts?

    I have a similar chisel and hammer that I will try. The jack stands were also in the way. I'll try with the wheels on the ground next time. Thanks, Barry

    Rear brake adjustment hole knockouts?

    These plates don't knock out that easily. Had to quit last night due to hammering noise. How big of a chisel and hammer did you use? Any chance of damaging the backing plates?

    Rear brake adjustment hole knockouts?

    Hi all, 1998 Ram 1500 4x4. The adjustment holes on the backing plates of the rear drums are sealed with metal on my truck. I'd like to open them to allow manual adjustment of the star wheel rather than relying on the automatic adjusters. It looks like it is possible to knock out the metal...

    Power window troubleshooting

    Sorry, disconnected and reconnected it. Then it worked one time only. It went up but would not go down. I will take panel off again and check switch and wiring with voltage/continuity tester. Not sure exactly what to test but I will do my best. The motor sounds fine when it runs (not laboring)...

    Recurring air in cooling system

    I checked the engine bay after the engine was warm, after about 5 min cool down. (Thanks for that tip!) I found a line of coolant along the junction between the timing chain cover and the engine block, passenger side. No other visible leaks. Can air also get into the system from here, rather...

    Recurring air in cooling system

    Thanks all for the help! No the engine does not overheat. I will check for leaks carefully and maybe have it pressure tested!

    Recurring air in cooling system

    Hi all, I have had recurring problems with a gurgling sound in heater core and poor heat which I solved by bleeding the air from the cooling system. I used a tall funnel with the truck parked on a hill to get the radiator higher than the engine, left engine running as I added coolant. Heat...

    Power window troubleshooting

    Hi all, I have a problem with the driver's side window. The window went all of the way down but would not move up at all. I took the door panel off, disconnected the harness from the switch. I turned on power and the window came all of the way up normally. Now it will not go down at all...
