Where is the power steering cap to top up fluid on a Skoda fabia 2002 model?
AnswerThe power steering top up tank is unbelieveably located under the battery. You have to take the battery out and the battery compartment and disconnect some ducting to get at it, which probably why some servicers don't bother to check it, resulting in expensive problems later.

How do you reset service and clock controller?
pre 1996 just hold the battery cables together (disconnect BOTH from battery first!!!) for a few seconds. 1996 or later varies. DONT slap the battery cables, message me the make and model and i will see if there is a easy way or if you need a controller.

Can you turn off the service engine soon light after you bypass a cadalitic converter?
disconnect the battery for 30 seconds to reset the light. It will come back on later when it figures out the catalyst is missing.
Why would the check engine light be on in a Ford Focus 2004?
Because you have an engine problem. Take it to AutoZone, or NAPA, and they will check it for free. To reset the computer, disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal and turn the headlight switch on, then back off, and reconnect the battery about 30 minutes later. If there is no problem, the light will stay off. If there IS a problem, it will come back on.
How do you change the battery in a 2003 Honda motorcycle?
In most later Honda models the battery is located under the driver's seat. The first step is to remove this. The seat is usually fastened with two bolts, often of the Allen type, one on each side of the rear of the seat. Then the seat is pulled back a bit and it is loose. In some bikes the CDI ignition unit is on top of the battery, pull this aside so it does not hinder access to the battery. Now you can remove the battery cables from their terminals. Disconnect the negative (black) cable first and then disconnect the positive (red) cable. Lift the old battery out and put the new battery in place. Be careful that the new battery turns the same way as the old battery, so the negative and positive cables will readily be connected to their respective terminals. Now, connect the positive cable and then the negative cable. Make sure the small bolts on the battery terminals are well fastened to the cables. Put the seat again in place and tighten the nuts on either side. Now you are ready to go.
If you disconnect the battery will the airbag stay intact when you open the steering wheel of a 98 Cherokee Sport to test the horn switch?
Once you disconnect the negative battery cable for at least two minutes, the air bag system will disarm on 1997 and later XJ models. You can then open up the steering wheel components and test them. The horn lead is the single spade connected wire that travels into the airbag module. Power to the horn, air bag and cruise control is passed from the harness via the clock spring.
Where is the auxiliary battery on 2006 Dodge sprinter van?
From the factory it only had 1 battery. So if you have more than 1 it was installed later and could be mounted anywhere.From the factory it only had 1 battery. So if you have more than 1 it was installed later and could be mounted anywhere.

My Acura CL 3.0 barely started.It just made a clicking noise. It then started.It happened again later in the day Any ideas?
battery is weak or connections loose or corroded. Be prepared. When you disconnect the battery your factory radio will lock. You have to have a code for it to work again. I am currently having this problem and everywhere wants to charge a ridiculous amount of money for the code. (from Sotec)--\/ This is exactly what the problem is. The battery is most likely 'bad' as can be reported by a parts store. This happened to me. Replaced the battery. Golden. :) Oh, make sure you get the short battery. They'll try and sell you the long one...hint: it doesn't fit.
How do you make your engine light go off?
If it's the "check engine" light you can do two things. One, take it to Auto Zone and they will clear the codes from the computer or disconnect the negative battery terminal for at least 10 seconds. Note, if you still have a problem, the light will come back on sooner or later.
