Isuzu Trooper

The Isuzu Trooper was a midsize SUV manufactured from 1981 to 2005. The Trooper had three generations: 1981-1991, 1992-1997 and 1998-2005. The first generation was basic and underpowered on- and off-road vehicle, while the succeeding generations were more refined and were available in two or four-wheel drive.

98 Isuzu trooper the fan blower motor stopped working you replaced the fan still not working?

Ok, you need to check firstly that the motor is ok - probably is fine. Make up two long ish wires with female insulated spade terminals on. The wire needs to be able to carry 20A, so at least 2mm core. Remove plastic connector and replace with the spade terminals. Connect two wire ends to 12v source (cigarette socket or 12v battery) either way round. If you get spark and then the blower starts, its fine.

If not, dead motor. The motor assy is held in with 4 screws, upwards. Its very easy to see and remove if you lie on the passenger footwell facing upwards with a torch. NO PANELS NEED REMOVING!

If motor ok, then unlikely to be feed or switch. Most likely is the resistor pack. Remove the glove box (two screws at the bottom, visible just by looking at bottom with door open.) then remove the plastic panel. Its held by one plastic clip down the side, four screws visible, and pain in the backside, one or two screws behind the centre dash plastic. You will need to remove the radio, then the two screws upwards in the black plastic centre pannel (above the radio fascia) and one at the bottom between ashtray and socket. Then the panel will pull firmly forward (four plastic hidden spring clips)

Now you can see the screw holding the panel.

Remove the panel, and you will see a five way multiconnector dissapearing into the blower/heater housing. This is the resistor panel. Its held in with two screws. Remove it. If you are brave you can open it up, but you can make things worse - though if your only other option is a new one, cant hurt!

These are sometimes resolderable, with good soldering kit, but not always.

I can repair these if needed...email me

What would cause the right turn signal not to work on a 1994 Isuzu Trooper V6?

burnt bulbs?

Check ground wires.

Same problem in my 93. I disassembled the blinker switch and cleaned all the contacts. The fun part was the bright switch which has the spring loaded ball bearing in a rocker assembly trick going on. I ended up replacing the ball with a small nail head and about 1/4 inch of the shank; of course I found the ball bearing after I put it all back in, but it works great! The slider for the blinker switch must be put back in the way it was oriented ( like north south not turned about), if not you will figure it out pretty quick. This is for the more advanced tinkers amongst us. No way I'm putting out $300 or so for a new switch!

Where is the temperature sensor found on a 1996 Isuzu Trooper?

I found it on 91 V6 under air cleaner on front of the intake manifold. look around the upper radiator hose

What oil for a Isuzu trooper?

Check the Isuzu site and you'll need the year. Check either for "oil" under parts or look for the user manual online.

Note that the oil viscosity (10-30, 20-40,...) changes according to the how hot or cold the average weather is.

As for what brand, regular or synthetic,... That's personal opinion.

As for additives, I've used Slick 50 in 3 cars, 1 pickup, 1 SUV, and 1 motorcycle and they all ran smoother, but no noticeable change in MPG.

Where can you find a wiring diagram for a 1997 Isuzu trooper?

You can find a wiring diagram for your 1997 Isuzu Trooper in mechanical service manuals. The mechanical service manuals can be found at most local libraries.

Items that use pulleys?

tape, flagpoles, those things you use for rock climbing, and the pulleys the construction people use! :)

What might be the problem if a 1997 Isuzu Trooper's low beams are out but the high beams still work?

Answer

Hi, there. This is exactly what happened to my '99 Trooper. Believe it or not, both the low beam filaments went out at the same time. I replaced on bulb and, bingo, low beams worked. Then, I replaced the other bulb and got the same result. Good luck. Hope this works for you.


-------- Hello, this is Lee adding a bit more to the answer.


Burned out bulbs suggest "high vehicle voltage levels".. High voltage levels are caused by a battery developing high internal resistance or a high resistance in the battery ground cable.


Automobiles typically use an alternator that charges the battery at a constant current. If the battery or the wire connecting the battery's negative terminal to the engine block develops a high resistance, then the voltage of the entire vehicle climbs a half a volt or maybe even a whole volt above normal. It turns out high intensity headlight bulbs quickly start blowing out when they are fed a little too much voltage.


So here is a checklist.

  1. Check the voltage drop for the battery to engine block ground connection. Check the battery connections. Remake as indicated.
  2. Does the battery need water? Not a very common problem these days, but small battery vehicles like motorcycles will develop a cell with low water.
  3. Is the vehicle battery at it's age limit? Aging car batteries sometimes develop higher internal resistance.

Where is the fuse for the tail lights on a 2002 Isuzu trooper?

Typically there are two fuse boxes: One under the hood normally near the battery and one under the dash. The fastest and easiest way to locate and identify fuses is to consult your owner's manual - always the best place to start. After checking your fuses you may find out that it's a bad bulb that's braking the circuit. If it ends up being a burnt out bulb, see sources and related links below and then consult your owner's manual for installation info.

Where is tcm on 93 Isuzu trooper?

On my 1995 it is under the the dash where the clutch would be located. It is chrome colored and has plugin visible. I am certain the 1992 is identical.

When do you replace the timing belt on a 2000 Isuzu trooper?

The timing belt on a 2000 Isuzu Trooper is replaced by removing the engine accessories, taking off the timing cover and loosening the tensioner. The belt can then be slipped off the sprockets and a new timing belt put in place.

How do you change the timing chain on a 2001 Isuzu trooper?

to change timing chain is pretty involved if you are not mechanically inclined take it to a mechanic. you need to remove radiator, water pump and anything else like alternator a/c pump etc to give you access to front of engine. then remove timing case cover remove timing gears and chain. replace with new ones at correct settings put engine back to ther now if your engine is an over head cam there are more instructions

Where can you find a diagram to help you replace the rear disc brake pads on a 1988 Isuzu Trooper II?

There isn't really a diagram that is all that good I've found. I just did mine. Remove the wheel. Remove the bolt (I think it's a 10mm) on the caliper and remove. Pull out old pads and replace with new pads. You will need to compress the rear piston to fit the new pads around the rotor. DO NOT USE A C-CLAMP. There will be 4 notches around the outside edge of the piston. I used a pair of needle nosed pliers that spanned to 2 of those notches across from one another. Once spanned, rotate the piston. Clockwise and counterclockwise it will turn. Just rotate it so that it is just above flush with the surrounding rubber seal (Not past it). Be sure to clean all of the surfaces that the brake pad travels on "slides". Chiltons or haynes manuels are great for step by step automotive

Isuzu Trooper Runs rough check engine light reduced power?

Check Engine and Reduced Power

P0401, P1125, P1295, P1515

I had this problem. It drove me crazy for a while. My father previously owned the car and a professional mechanic serviced the car several times. He replaced the accelerator position sensor and whatever else he did I don't know. I don't blame the guy for not being able to fix it, as they only have so much time to figure car troubles out because they have other people to service. However, I am just someone who began to read a significant amount of information on the automobile: the engine, the brakes, the suspension, the sensors, ...the overall functioning. I did two gasket overhauls, with changing various parts to update the functioning (timing belt, plugs, several sensors, cooling system parts, charging system, pulleys, dented oil pan, oil pump, seals, valves on one of the cars, ...whatever I thought "hey, after 200,000 miles, it probably makes sense", I think it does; mind you, I did do specification checks on what needed checking with the cylinder heads). I still drive one of them (3000GT, may as well be a car you like), and a 2000 Eclipse (bought it brand new, and constantly kept up on the oil), which is now deceased (I won't go into the details), but I still pulled the engine (which still ran awesome, when I checked to see if it still ran <thank God, that would have been a total waste> and to replace this car....ta da >>> my old man gave me the 2000 Trooper. (I apologize for the long story, just want you to get an idea of what where I'm coming from)

With 168,000 miles, and no timing belt change, sparks pugs, literally nothing... I went ahead and did all that plus some other stuff merely because I was deep enough into the area, or had access, rather. When I pulled off the "common chamber" which is the intake manifold I began to clean it and was surprised by a large blot of built up crap in the port for the "MAP SENSOR!!!". It ruined the sensor itself which I did not rule out right away because I just wanted to see what would happen. I left the old one in but purchased another one just in case. Low and behold a few days went by, there were no mil or reduced power for those few days but bam they did come back on. I REPLACED THE OLD MAP WITH THE NEW AND NOW IT RUNS BEAUTIFULLY, NO PROBLEMOS. It's been a couple of months now, I can take it anywhere and not worry about the limp home mode preventing me from controlling the throttle and making me feel like the only idiot being able to reach that 10 MPH limit on the way back home.

I did purchase an ISUZU electronic copy of the manual (from HELM INC.) and it mentions so faintly about the correlation between the MAP reading and the throttle position. They mostly point to the TPS or Accelerator sensor predicament, so who'd of thought (I can only imagine that you can only publish a limited number of scenarios, not every possible one). The MAP reading also affects the EGR reading which was the initial check engine light cause. This was definitely what fixed mine.

ON A FINAL THOUGHT:

The automotive engine and the whole car itself is really really really a crazy marvel of invention. And though this world doesn't push people to realize this in its most direct way. after all, who has time right? people should make time to try and follow how it works and what keeps it working. It would save a lot of misery and aggravation.

Where is the camshaft position sensor for 1997 Isuzu Trooper 3.2l?

The camshaft position sensor for the 1997 Isuzu Trooper 3.2L is located on the front of the engine, near the timing belt cover. You may need to remove the engine covers or other components for better access. It's typically mounted on the cylinder head or engine block, depending on the specific configuration. Always consult a repair manual for precise instructions and diagrams.

How do you replace a throttle sensor on a 2002 Isuzu trooper?
