How do you replace the headlight on a 1997 Dodge Grand Caravan?
Asked by Wiki User
Open up the hood, Locate on top of headlight housing 3 flat head screws, place in a triangle patterned. remove all 3 and then using little flat handle slide out headlight housing. Some cars will have clips holding the socket in. Twist the socket a quarter turn counter clockwise, and pull out the socket. Grab the bulb, and pull it straight out. To replace the new bulb, never touch it with your bare fingers, as this will greatly shorten the bulb's life, if it even work's at all. Use a tissue or something else in that order to handle the new bulb. Push the new bulb into the socket, put the socket back into the housing, and twist a quarter turn clockwise to secure the socket into the fixture slide unit back into place, line up screw holes and replace screws tightly. I always like to test the bulb before I put everything back in securely.

How do you change the starter on a 1989 Pontiac Sunbird with a 2.0 L engine?
Asked by Wiki User
You remove the bolts, take off the old one and bolt on the new one.
My uncle had a 1992 sunbird and in order to change the starter on that one you had to take the front axle off and drop the starter out from the bottom because of the frame and cross over bars. Not sure if 89 would be exactly the same.
My daughter had one of those front drive cars. Rather than spend a lot of time on my back, I removed the head to get at it from above. I took the head in for service and wound up with a better car.
apparently the first person has no idea about the 89 turbos, the starter is under the multi port intake under the right side near the firewall, not a good take off bolt, replace job. I TOO would like to know from the gurus out here, do you take the passenger side wheel and axel off to get to the starter? Engine only has 52K Miles. Do not wish to remove anything i do not have to. Thanks!

Asked by Wiki User
- Unhook the negative battery terminal.
- Lift the car.
- Slide under the car.

- Unscrew the solenoid power supply from the post. Use pliers.
- Unplug the harness from the solenoid socket that comes from the battery. Use a screw driver.
- Unscrew the bolt #1 from the bottom of the engine that holds the starter. You will need a 6 inch or longer swivel angle joint. See photo.
- From the top of the engine, unscrew the ground wire bolt that runs from the battery to engine housing. It is also the bolt #2 that attaches the starter to the engine housing. You will need a socket extension. See photo.
- The starter comes off.
- Installation is the reverse of the removal process.

I have a 2001 Dodge Gran Caravan Sport and u encountered the trouble code P0303 which indicates a misfire in cylinder 3. You need to check your ignition wire on 3, your spark plug on 3 and if need be, replace it or try to replace the others too and lastly if the trouble code is still there then you might replace the coil pack as well.

Where is the air filter on a 1999 Dodge Caravan and how do you replace it?
Asked by Wiki User
If it the same as the 1998 model, there should be a black plastic box on the right side of the engine compartment that says "remove to service air filter element below", the filter is NOT in this box, it is in another plastic box below this one. You must remove the two screws on the box you see, romove the two hoses connected to it, one you just pull off, the other you must remove a clamp to remove. After you do this you can see the box containing the filter it is set vertically and has two metal clips keeping it closed, just reomve the clips, and change the filter, dont forget to replace both hoses and both screws.

What would cause missing when driving and at idle speed in a 1995 Suzuki Sidekick?
Asked by Wiki User
then evaluate
http://www.kick-fix.com/
Could be a timing issue. Timing may be off. Also check your spark plugs. If the engine has a timing belt, the timing sprocket may be wore out on the crankshaft. The timing will be off, loss of engine power and missing at idling speeds.
I have the same year and model as you.Same problem.I changed my spark plugs ,rotor cap and rotor.The problem still persisted, then I changed my spark plug wires and voila all was ok afterwards. Your gas filter may also cause that problem,so get it changed also. Good luck and merry Christmas
How do you fix the horn on a 99 SL1 where is the fuse located?
Asked by Wiki User
The horn is right under the left headlight assy two 10mm bolts..The fuse is in the underhood fuse block right beside the battery It is labeled on the cover of the fuse block....You probably need a horn if it's inop
+++
If the horn still works for your alarm, (when you lock or panic) the fault is most likely the slip ring/spring in your steering wheel. That provides the negative side of he circuit to make the relay honk the horn. If every now and then the horn works, until you turn a few times, this is most likely the problem. Could also be the horn relay (under the hood, clearly marked in a fuse panel there.)
When I followed instructions given previously for flashing lights on wiper panel in 97 Plymouth voyager pressing rear wiper button to exit makes all lights start flashing again?
Asked by Wiki User
== == I'll post the instructions again, in case my experience is similar to yours. This is what I did, and it worked.
Don't push the Exit Button (rear wiper) until everything stops or lights start flashing simultaneous. (Alternate flash means it is testing; Simultaneous means failure.)
If you finish the test and it shows success (only the rear wiper indicator is flashing), and you exit and THEN they start blinking again, the test will not help you. You have a short somewhere that keeps resetting your console.
Here is what I have done. I know you've already tried this. Follow these instructions, and just wade through what you have already done. I have tried to explain some common problems or errors with the tests (See italicized.)
Start the car.
Turn blowers on FULL, and open all A/C ports (Rear, front...). If you can tell, it is better to have the A/C compressor off. (Often you can't tell, or you wouldn't be concerned with the flashing lights, right?) Turn front air to PANEL.
Press simultaneously the Rear Wiper (not the intermittent) button and the wash button. Hold for 5 seconds until all lights are constant. Release buttons and allow the tests to run (two minutes or so.)
When the Rear Wiper and the Intermittent Rear Wiper indicators are flashing alternately, it is going through the Calibration Test. When the A/C (snowflake) and the Recirculation indicators are flashing alternately, it is going through the Cool Down Test. (In my case, both sets flashed alternately during the entire test.)
Tests are successful when only the Rear Wiper indicator is flashing slowly. Push it to exit the program, and you're done.
Often, after doing these tests for the first time, the Cool Down Test fails, and the A/C and the Recirculation indicators flash simultaneously (though, just these two instead of the four.) Simply run the Cool Down Test independently by pressing simultaneously the A/C and the Wash Buttons. Hold for 5 seconds, and allow the test to run.
This may take more than a few runs to finally set. Mine worked when I ran the test as soon as I started the car the next time (after the car had cooled off completely overnight). When all lights go out except for the Rear Wiper, push the Rear Wiper to exit. Success!
Some have suggested turning the compessor off and running the car for 15 minutes previous to the Cool Down Test. This did not work for me. But it is true that if the compressor is cold (with condensation), the Cool down test will usually fail. Try, try again. If your A/C compressor is in good condition, it will eventually set. If nothing seems to work, your A/C might be have a problem.
WHY don't the manuals come with this information??
Hope I have helped you.
