How to change the headlight bulb in an Infiniti qx56?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you are just trying to replace the headlight bulb; 1. Turn on your lights to see which bulb is out.

2. Purchase bulb

3. unscrew the cap on the back of the bulb that is out.

4. Unplug the wires connect to the bad bulb.

5. Release the metal holder that holds the bulb in place, this involves pushing the holder in then down, sort of like opening a safety pin, you might want to use a long screwdriver to help you push the holder in and down as it is a cramped space. Once the holder pops open (it will not fall off, just open) remove the old bulb and replace with the new bulb.

6. You can use your long screwdriver to position the bulb but do noit put too much pressure on the bulb.

7. Once the bulb is in position, you can use your screwdriver to refasten the metal holder back to the closed positon.

8. Reconnect the wires.

9. Test the light.

10. if all is well, put the cap back on.

Why doesn't the heater in my Ford Ranger put out warm air.?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

check the fluid level in the tank or radiator. Check the top radiator hose when the car is warming up, is it hot? If not it might just be your thermostat that needs to be replaced. Or it could be that your heater core is plugged up. You don't say how old a car this is in, some times you can take off the heater hoses and connect a garden hose to it and back flush it and get some of the junk out of it, just don't turn the hose all the way or out can blow a hole in the heater core, then you have a mess. If you are not handy, you can go to some place that power flushes the cooling system and that may fix it also. Just hope you don't have to get a new heater core as they are a pain to put in in most cars and costs a lot to have some else do it. The core doesn't cost much but the labor is a lot.

How do you repair a 1995 Ford Ranger's door locks that are sticking will not unlock from the outside?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If it won't unlock with the key, this means that the rod from the key tumbler to the door latch has become disconnected or is broken. If you can get the door open, you will need to remove the inside door panel and look in through the holes to see what the problem is.

usually you have to press, or pound with a hammer...if the joints are riveted in you need to break the rivets, perhaps with a chisel...on rare occasion the joints are not servicable and the whole control arm need to be replaced

Which is the fuse for the radio and lighter in a 1996 Geo Metro?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Look under the dash between steering column and driver's side door, you may have to lay on your back to see under the dash and take a flashlight, the fuses are marked around the outside of the box to tell you what they are for, and under the hood up next to the firewall on the driver's side is another set of important fuses, different type than under the dash, but take a look, they are also marked as to what they control.

What could be wrong if a 1997 Ford Ranger with manual transmission will start and shift into gear but won't move?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It sounds like it may be low on fluid, or maybe a dirty filter. Depending on how the vehicle is operated (Hot Roddded, Lead Foot, etc.) it could even be the clutches. The best way to find out is to pull the dipstick and check the fluid. This is while the engine is running, the vehicle is warmed up, and in park, on level ground. Pull the dipstick out, and wipe it off on white paper towels. Does it look brown? If so, this would be a danger sign letting you know that the transmission needs to be rebuilt, or replaced. If the fluid is red, almost a candy color red, then the transmission is probably ok, but the fluid is probably low. Put the stick back in, and pull it back out again. See where the fluid level is on the stick. There are two marks, and it should fall somewhere in between, if not, closer to the upper mark. If that is ok, then you need to find a trustworthy shop, or a friend that knows how to change transmission filters, because this would be your next step. If the fluid is low, have some put in to see if that fixes your problem. Then find the leak.

It us under the hood to the right of the battery (labeled) once you remove the fuse box cover and yes there is a fuse puller under the dash.

Why would a 1983 Honda Civic keep overheating?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I think that either your radiator is plugged up, not allowing your coolant to use the full volume and/ or surface area of the radiator. Also, your thermostat might be stuck closed not letting your coolant to circulate through the block. And last thing, make sure that your electric cooling fan comes on when the car gets above 180 degrees. My answer is to replace your thermostat, flush and clean your cooling system (by a professional radiator shop)with a strong cleaner, and make sure there are no leaks in your cooling system, your car has a closed system, a leak will make it over heat too.

Can you plug a 220V lamp into a 110V outlet?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A higher voltage incandescent (not transformer powered) lamp will work on a lower voltage system but, as has been mentioned in the answer below, it won't be as bright.

Often 130 Volt lamps are used on a 120 Volt system to make a so called "long life bulb".

A 240 Volt lamp would barely glow on a 120 Volt supply and it would use only a quarter of the energy (Watts) that it would normally use at 240 Volts (because of the way voltage and current are related to energy) but it could still be used as a heat source in a small enclosure without having the brightness of a normally-used lamp.

<><><>

There is some very "muddled thinking" going on in the suggested answers below this one...

So let's get some things clear in our minds...

1. Light bulbs have "bases" on them, not "plugs".

2. You never "plug" a bulb into an "outlet", you "screw" it into a "lamp holder".

3. The idea of running a 220-240 Volt bulb from a 110-120 Volt circuit is about as sensible as asking if you can drive a car around all day in first gear... Sure you can do it, but it just doesn't make sense! The lamp will glow so weakly as to be useless as a practical source of light so it would be a waste of a perfectly good bulb!

4. If you want to have a low light output, all you need to do is to use a low wattage 110-120 Volt bulb!

<><><>

Probably not. The plugs should be different and not compatible with the socket.

<><><>

Correction: Yes, you can if you just rewire with a standard UL approved plug which you can get at your local hardware store. The lights will be very dim, but will last a long time. Most regular 220v bulbs have Edison bases and you can simply change them out with 120v bulbs and you're good to go.

Im not sure what the correct name is for it but it is for sure located on side of distributor

What size breaker to use on a 4500 watt water heater?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Divide your wattage by your voltage to get your amperage.

4500/240=18.75 Amps

12ga. wire "can" handle 20amps, however, You should only load a wire to 75% it's max. You are beyond 15amps, so 10ga. would be a good idea, and may be required by your local building codes. Remember, in a brownout (voltage drop) the amp draw will go up. You want to keep below 75% load to allow for this.

On 12ga. wire you would be at 93.75% of it's 20amp rating. (Dangerous)

On 10ga. wire you would be at 62.5% of it's 30amp rating. (Safe)

On 8ga. wire you would be at 46.875% of it's 40amp rating. (Overkill)

If you use 8ga., make sure the conductors will actually fit into the terminals on your breaker.

If you house doesn't have true 120v/240v power, the amperage will be higher. For example, if you power is actuall comming in at 110v/220v, the ater heater will draw 20.45amps. This would exceed the rating of the 12ga. wire, and raise the load on the 10ga. and 8ga. to 68.16% and 51.12% respectively.

Regardless of the wire size you choose, use a 20amp breaker (25amp if you voltage is less than 240). If the water heater draws more than 20amps, you could have a problem. The wire is not the only thing that can burn your house down.


Correction to above. If voltage decreases in a resistive circuit, wattage will go down, as will current draw. Resistance stays the same.

Can you plug in a 120V appliance into a 110V outlet?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, they are functionally the same.

Not only are they functionally the same, but they are truly one and the same thing. That which some people call a 110 volt line and what some call a 120 volt line are provide by the same equipment.

The difference in the name is based on what was the standard voltage at the time the person speaking learned what to call it. Presently, it is not uncommon to find 125 volts and 130 volts [and more] at a receptacle outlet. The upward ratcheting line voltage is the answer power companies use to address ever-increasing demand. For more information see the answer to the Related Questionshown below.
