    it is the rear-left wheel speed sensor output of the ABS. VSS generates a pulsing voltage every time the vehicle speed is beyond 3 mph, supplies vehicle speed information to the ECU, ECU supplies the requisite signal to the cluster,,,,might want to reset the DME. Have you touched the stereo wiring rescently? I've seen VSS/GAL signal shorting out too

    my ignition I was referring to. Yes, monster system.

    I also chose the cell PH ready connection. It is the easiest way+ switched power is nice to have.

    This will explain it all,,, http://www.986online.com/cgi-bin/ASI_Store...ptioncodes.html

    I haven't seen any1 done this yet, using an after market amp with CDR220,,,

    U mean the shut off valve ? I would check the triger wire+ground to B+, if the purge valve is operting fine. possibility is U got a faulty tank pressure sensor or shutoff valve,,, have a feeling most likely it's the sensor? Stefan's pic What happens for this system to work is the EVAP canister's shut off valve is closed and the purge valve is opened. This in turn allows vacuum to build up in the system and is measured by the pressure sensor. When a specified vacuum is reached the purge valve is closed. Now the pressure sensor measures the given vacuum over a set time. Should there be a leak the vacuum will drop accordingly. When the shut off valve is faulty no vacuum is built up at all. The purge valve when faulty allows the vacuum to be built up , however it doesn't close so the sensor never has that constant base reading to start by(PCA)

    I have no experience with Redmond. But Im just curious that after AOS wasreplaced if someone actually did perform a leak down test? or they are just assuming cause it's still smoking? There are many causes for the type of white smoke. "If it is a very dense white smoke with an acrid odor, then it is due to coolant burning in a cylinder when the engine is first started. The cause could be a seeping head gasket which allows coolant to accumulate in a cylinder when the engine sits unused for a couple of hours. Diagnosis is usually done by a combination of cooling system pressure testing and cylinder leakdown testing. Another cause would be worn valve guides and seals. If the valve guides in the engine are worn, it will allow a tiny amount of engine oil to seep down the guides and pool below the heads of the valves when the enigne is not operated for several hours. Upon startup, the accumulated oil will be drawn into the cylinders and burned. The amount of oil involved is very small, typically with worn valve guides you do not notice any measureable oil consumption on the dipstick; a couple drops of burning oil makes a LOT of smoke. Oil smoke is not bright white, but is more of a grayish-white color and smells somewhat like burned oil."

    Yes, they need to perform a coolant pressure test!

    Yup I keep it simple & light

    As Glyn mentioned Porsche will say this can't be done + whole latch unit is needed. I think, U can get something similar at maplin.co.uk. Thanks for the replies, can you buy just the micro switch, still waiting for my service manual to arrive.

    Barrier in Bellevue & Larson in Tacoma. it is rare to see a cracked cylinder liner for those models after 2000 but sounds a lot like it. Yes, u can get to the head with engine still in the car. Approximately 23 hrs for both head gaskets with standard tranny, a bit more with an auto trans A good indy should be able to do it for about $2000 +machine shop cost+parts, if it is a blown head gasket.

    time to take the battery out to a local part store(auto zone?),let them test it. your wiring looks Ok.
  14. juniinc
    not every H7 is 55watts,make sure they are 55watters. At this point the easiest solution would be applying some sort of headlight cover film.
  15. juniinc
    This might be able to help U,,, http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...p;hl=shift+knob

    U will need to replace the micro switch in the latch unit.
  17. juniinc
    check the wiring on your alternator

    hey Adam glad that she is back on the road again.
  19. juniinc
    I'm running almost 11" wide on the rear.
  20. juniinc
    talking about that magic drop when entering?
  21. juniinc
    how old is the battery? possibly clogged fuel filter, pressure regulator?
  22. juniinc
    Fahrenheit
  23. juniinc
    u could check the resistors but sounds normal to me.
  24. juniinc
    FM should be ok The Boxster's electronics is generating a signal in the frequency range of the AM radio,,,
  25. juniinc
    need to replace the whole latch mechanism, unless U can rigg it at home
