Why does airbag light stay on Dodge Intrepid 1994?
There is a problem with the SRS. Due to the inherent danger of working on the system, I recommend you take it to a professional for repair.

When the low fuel light comes on on a 1998 dodge caravan how far can you go?
You can go until you run out of gas. There is probably two gallons left when the light comes on. The ability of the fuel pump to pick it all up varies. You could have 10 miles or 50 miles, hard to say.

The emergency brake is engaged and wont release help?
With the car in Park, block the wheels on a level surface, and go under the car, lifting it off the ground with a jack if you have to. Follow the parking brake cables to the back brake calipers at each rear wheel. The parking brake pulls a small lever on the caliper. This often can rust or corrode on the inside, or even freeze. The brake cables themselves can also have moisture in them causing them to corrode and seize up or freeze in lower temperatures (often during winter) As a temporary fix, take a hammer and lightly tap the parking brake calilper on each brake back in the opposite direction the cable pulls - most often this is back toward the wheel. Once you have tapped it all the way back to it's return state, you can drive. But before you use the parking/emergency brake again, take the housing & cables off the caliper and inspect for corrosion, rust or a snagged cable. You may need a new brake caliper, a rebuilt caliper with new seals, or new parking cables, but you can often PB Blast or WD-40 the cables and clean them up and reuse them. Also, make sure there are no splits, cracks or tears in any rubber housings or boots that would allow moisture in. Good Luck!

On a 2005 caravan does it have a washer with the oil drain plug?
You can go to any auto parts store and get a replacement oil plug for a couple of bucks. They should be replaced periodically anyway. Good Luck
Where is the fuel filter located on a 1993 Dodge Grand Caravan?
On my '93 dodge grand caravan se, it'll be near the sliding door, it's a small silver cilander connected to a black hose on each end it's a little ways under the van so get comfy and watch out for the fuel that will pour out of it and the hoses as you undo the clamps to change it
Slide the red part of connecter to the side, then squeeze release down and pull off.
Where is the low pressure port 2005 grand caravan?
Looking at the engine from the front, its down next to the left radiator fan shroud.
The 2000 version has the same problem. The cause is that there is a latching mechanism that corrodes over time, and eventually seizes up, causing the plastic "T" to remain locked although the cable is lowered. I was told it is a secondary locking system to assure that the spare does not come loose unexpectedly.
My van had to have the mechanism replaced.
If you have a long flat screw driver you can take of the wheel and spray some WD-40 on it and now it works fine. Hope this helps.
I had the same problem today here is what I did.
It is hard to see anything at all under there because the tire is in the way.
What I did was
1:) Let down the cable from the inside the car first. The problem was the cable went down but the plastic T stayed on the tire.
2:) Lying under the car I put a jack on the spare tire, and jacked the tire up as far as it could go (Without lifting the car). I maneuvered the tire in such a way that I could visibly see the top of the plastic T through the center holeof the tire. At the same time that took all the weight off the plastic T.
So now you have a freed up plastic tee, and can see the top of it and the tire is
kind of out of the way. You will see a square piece outside the hole it is the safety latch, it should be towards the rear end. The problem was figuring out how that worked. The entire square pulls down. Pull that square down and the T will fall. I didn't know how it worked so I got a screw driver and rammed it inside the
hole where the T was locked in and worked the T out. So I have no idea if it was
frozen or not, but once I got the tire out of the way, I liquid wrenched it and worked it a few times and it seems fine.
So before doing all this, the safety latch is accessible with the tire on, so just try and force the entire square piece down before doing all the unnecessary work.
(Before working the square down make sure the tire won't fall on you, put a jack under tire for safety reason in this case.)
good luck
What is an egr valve on 2007 Grand Caravan?
The EGR valve recirculates exhaust into the intake. Exhaust gases have already combusted, so they do not burn again when they are recirculated. These gases displace some of the normal intake charge. This chemically slows and cools the combustion process by several hundred degrees, thus reducing NOx formation.
The EGR system of today must precisely control the flow of recirculated exhaust. Too much flow will retard engine performance and cause a hesitation on acceleration. Too little flow will increase NOx and cause engine ping. A well-designed system will actually increase engine performance and economy. Why? As the combustion chamber temperature is reduced, engine detonation potential is also reduced. This factor enabled the software engineers to write a more aggressive timing advance curve into the spark timing program. If the EGR valve is not flowing, onboard diagnostics (OBD) systems will set a code and the power control module (PCM) will use a backup timing curve that has less advance to prevent engine ping. Less timing advance means less performance and economy.
How do you check the transmission oil in 2000 Dodge Grand Caravan with engine 3.3?
Engine idling in park.
What do you do when the windshield wipers are always running in the off position on a 1998 Civic EX?
You first pull the wiper motor fuse located on the drivers side under the dash. This will keep your blades from distracting you while you drive. The part that has to be changed is called the Wiper Switch Assembly. The part number is 35256-SR3-G21 and can be purchased around 65 bucks at your local auto parts store. It would be best to have a repair manual because the (SRS) needs to be disabled. The Haynes Manual gives you step by step instructions with detailed illustrations for a smoother removal and installation.
Egr location 3.8L on a 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan sxt?
It is on the passenger side of the front head, just above the alternator.
I have a 1996 Dodge Grand Caravan SE, the drivers side passenger door would not open, I removed the trim which is mostly pop joints and checked the linkage mechanism, which was all functional. After disassembling the lock from the inside and spending hours pondering the mechanical permutations of where and how this thing was stuck, I resorted to two levers placed above and below the lock line, and from the inside sprang the door! Eureka! The conclusion, this model has an interlock with the gas cap, cap open, can't open the door. It functions as the door lock mechanism, using a peg mounted on the door which uses a cam lock on the pillar. No the door was not open, but the clearance of the peg on the door was such that it rode over the cam instead of tripping it. Hence it jammed, and the only way of releasing it, was from the inside with two levers! I hope this saves you a few hours, as today was in the 70's with a cool northerly breeze and I could have been on the patio with a cool one!
Regards.
How do you remove the dash on a 2000 Chevy Impala to install a new stereo?
http://www.impalahq.com/ I would sugest to visit the FCSR site at www.carstereohelp.com, and you will find there instruction for any car Radio/dashboard removal, with nice pictures just for 6 dolars. Very Recomended.
Open both front doors, remove the fuse panel/relay cover panel at top by pulling straight off. There is a screw at the top which holds part of the dash panel, remove screw, do the same on the other side. Remove two screws at the center of drivers side of dash at top which screws in to the top of the dashboard. Remove small lower dash panel around steering column, it has two screws.You will have to unplug four electrical connectors, Two are on lower panel for floor light and trunk release. Two are on main dash panel, one for Traction control and one for hazard light. Start to pry from drivers side, the dash panel, it has snap clips and work across to pass. side. sash panel will lift off. This will leave acsess to radio.
How to replace window motor in 2000 dodge caravan?
Actually, Chrysler made this task pretty easy because the motor sits between the inner metal door skin and the door panel. The ardest thing is getting the door panel off with out breaking all of the door clips.
BUT, first before you order a new motor or regulator (BTW,the cheapest price I found is on eBay) , disconnect the motor's harness and see if you are not getting juice at the connector. Install a voltmeter or light bulb between one of the two slots and ground and try the switch (make sure the ignition is on) then try the other slot to ground. If you get juice, your motor isn't working. Now let's check a little further: Cut off the plastic tie on the motor and remove the two screws holding the magnetic field housing and remove the housing exposing the armature. With you fingers turn the armature to determine that it is free. Lift up the armature so the the commutator is just free of the brushes. Take a Q-tip in some solvent and clean the commutator till the copper color is showing. Make sure the brushes are free to move and press the brush lead away from the motor shaft to allow the brushes to move forward as much as the can. insert the armature back into its original position making sure that the brushes are pushed back with a small probe. Next slide the field housing back over the armature and replace the two screws and reconnect the wiring harness. Now try the motor! If it doesn't work, you only wasted five minutes. If it does work you may have saved a lot. It may last longer than you need especially if you lighten up on using that window. It will usually give you warning of future failing, which you probably ignored before.
Where is the PCM on a 1998 Buick regal?
It's in the (stock) air box. There are some clips on the back, undo those and then it should pull up, it will be in there. You may have to disconnect the box from the air hose that goes to the throttle body, I'm not sure, but either way the computer sits in the air box on some pegs.
