How do you replace the headlight bulb located on a 2002 Plymouth Voyager?

Ok just done it (well mine is a 2003 Chrysler Voyager - but I guess its the same vehicle).These are the instructions for the LH lamp.

# Open up the bonnet, and look at the areas above the headlamp and in front of the battery. # You should be able to locate 3 hex headed bolts, with screw slots (so you can turn them with a spanner or a flat blade screw driver). They are about 8mm in diameter. Oh 8mm is about 1/4 inch.

# Undo all three completely and place somewhere safe, the headlamp unit will become loose. # Prise it out gently so as not to damage it. # On the back of the headlamp you'll see a number of plastic push fit "Tupperware" covers. Pull the one of behind the bulb that you need to replace and the back of the bulb is revealed. # Easy! # Reassembly is he reverse process. Now if anyone can tell me how to get my lamps to point to the opposite side of the road (my car is set up for right hand driving in the UK but I drive on the continent allot)...

Adding coolant to your 99 vw golf gti?

ONLY GET VW COOLANT or be dumb and put cheap stuff in and pay for it later. NEVER put green coolant in. Will destroy all coolant parts. It will rot them. Happened to me. I had to replace it all.

as with most cars you should almost always follow vehicle manufactures recommendations. I'm lucky, I have a 20 years plus VW dealer tech in the family and he warned me of this when I bought my 1998 2.0 GTI. The same is true when adding power steering fluid. In high school auto shop I was taught that regular ATF fluid was acceptable to use in place of power steering fluid. not the case any longer.

1990 mk2 golf gti 16v I cant seem to find where the relay is located for my ecu i have checked behind the panel to the right under the stearing column where the other fuses relays are. Any ideas?

16v GTI Mk2 Golfs/Jettas do not have an ECU as they use the Bosch K-Jetronic mechanical injection system. Apart from the electric fuel pumps and associated relay, the only electronics fitted to the 16v 'KR' engine are...

  • Electronic ignition control (TCI-H module)
  • Supplementary fifth 'cold-start' injector
  • Electronic idle stabilisation control (ISV control module)

The TCI-H module is located under a plastic shield next to the weather shield covering the windscreen wiper motor. This is also where the ECU is located on later 8v Golfs fitted with the Digifant electronic fuel injection system.

The ISV control module is located behind the centre console, behind the ashtray and electric window switches (where fitted).

How do you replace the headlight bulb located on a 1990 Chevy Silverado 2500?

You can't. You'll have to buy the headlamp. The bulbs are not replaceable and that's simple just 4 hex screws on the corners.

Not sure about the answer above, but I have a 1990 1500 and it does have bulbs in plastic lenses instead of the whole square bulb assembly. On mine, pop the hood look down the back of the grill wall and on each side of the radiator and you should be able to see the bulb retainers they either twist and pull out or have a lock collar that twist and unlocks, you may have to yank the battery for the passenger side. This applies to only the bulb type in the plastic lenses, if its the old whole square glass bulb then the answer above is correct.........either way, not real difficult.

Why does your 2004 Volkwagen golf overheat?

These engines have plastic impelers on water pump which fails / breaks and therefore coolant doesn,t flow - and engine overheats .
