Ford - Econoline :: 1997 - How To Open Hood With A Broken Hood Latch
I have a 1997 Ford Econoline conversion campervan that I don't use very often. I need to open the hood to jump start the battery. Last time I opened the hood I did not notice anything wrong with the hood or the hood release latch inside the cab. Now when I pulled the hood release latch inside the cab, nothing happens to the hood at all (the hood does not open at all).
Is there a way I can open the hood or do I need to tow it to my mechanic?
Celica :: 1989 Celica GT - When Pressing On Gas / Idle Drops And Then Car Dies
My brother was the original owner then passed it on to me. I then passed it on to my younger cousin about two years ago. The car is completely stock and has never been modified. Everything is OEM.Just a couple of weeks ago I was called by my cousin saying the car broke down on her .The problem is that we took it to a few mechanic shops but they still haven't fixed it ...
Problem with car: When pressing on the gas, the idle drops and then the car dies (a scary event that happened to us and on a main road). I do not wish to bring it to another fail mechanic shop.What the shops did: changed all fluids, distributor cap and plugs, new spark plugs, and replaced air intake piping with oem piping.

My 2002 Camry CEL came on as well as the VSC Trac Off lamps. I checked the codes and fixed a loose fuel cap, cleared the code the CEL lamp went off as did the VSC Trac Off lamps . . . until I restarted the car and went a few feet - they came back on. Checked for codes but none reported. The VSC Trac Off go off after starting engine and will not reappear until car is moving. Checked most of the reported remedies, brake fluid, tire pressure, etc. but to no avail.

I've got an 01 Tundra with 170k and no trouble. And a 01 Highlander 4 cylinder with 330K and no trouble. We just added a 04 RX330 with 170k on it. It had an impeccable 15 page Lexus dealer history.
That said, I had the check engine, Trac off, and VSC light come on about a month after we bought it. I used my acton scanner cleared it out. Then I noticed the gas cap was loose so I attributed the issue to that.
Yesterday, the lights came back on again. I have not cleared the code this time. My scanner is showing a "P0420 Catalyst Efficiency Below Threshold Bank 1" error. This car has a brand new cat installed by the Lexus dealer about 6 months ago.
I saw the buttons below the dash that say Trac off on them.
Camry :: VSC And TRAC OFF Light Won't Go Away - CEL Code
I recently had a CEL code for bank 2 cat converter.. I drove the car with the CEL for 8 months and one day the VSC and TRAC OFF light popped on and wouldn't go away. I took it to toyota and they told me that it is because the check engine light is on and once the CEL goes off the others should as well. Well i recently replaced the bank 2 cat and cleared the CEL and iv driven over 300 miles already the CEL has not come back on but the VSC and TRAC OFF light remain ON....

I've had this 2003 XLE v6 for several days. Just got new rear tires, to match the almost new fronts.
Drove fine for about 100 miles. Then my conscience told me to get an alignment. I got in the car after the alignment and the VSC and TRAC OFF lights were on. I went back in and got the "they were on when we drove it in" song.
After pressing the trac button several times, the VSC went off, then the TRAC OFF when out. "Oh well" maybe he was not BSing me, so I drive off. Came back on within a couple hundred feet.
Now, it seems they go off right after starting the engine, with all the others, but will come on almost as soon as I drive off. If I just sit there idling, does not seem to come back on.
I should add they also told me the cabin air filter was filthy and had to wait while the put it back in when I declined. After all, I can get it way cheaper, etc. I mention because I have seen some comments about this happening in some models after changing that filter.
So, what did the do? Or what can I do?

2003 Camry XLE V6.. As soon as I drive the VSC an TRAC OFF lights go on.
This happened recently: Had low air pressure on rear driver's side tire. Gave it air and it's good now.
The lights still won't turn off. I took it to a mechanic, he checked on the computer, but found no codes. I told him about the deal with the tire and he said that the system might need to be reset or re-calibrated because the stability control probably detected one of the tires had some abnormal movement by hitting a bump or maybe because of the low tire pressure, etc.
How do I reset/re-calibrate or do whatever to turn these lights off?
Camry :: 2003 - VSC And TRAC OFF Lights Came On
2003 Camry xle 3.0 auto. VSC and trac off lights came on after I plugged in an obdc II checker. A 30 dollar red one.
This happened once before when I had a wheel alignment done but kept pestering the shop till they fixed it.
This time, I had the rr jacked up to look for source of noise and plugged this in, just for chuckles. No chuckles now.
I did find a write up on how to turn it off with some paper clips and fancy finger work and will give it a go.
But, is this going to happen every time I plug in a tester?

View 2 RepliesScion - XB :: 2006 - ABS Along With TRAC And VSC Lights Came On
I have recently purchased a low mileage 2006 Scion XB and have had to have a faulty front ABS senor replaced at a local repair shop. The mechanic used a "genuine Toyota" replacement sensor. After a couple of miles my ABS light along with the TRAC and VSC lights came on. He reset the computer and they came on almost immediately. His computer read faulty ABS sensor, he said that he checked the new sensor and it worked. He sent me to Toyota, who also diagnosed it as faulty sensor and when they checked the sensor it was fine.
They said the problem was rust, cleaned the sensor and hub and everything was fine for about 50 miles, then the lights came on again. The service manager said that if the problem came back that they would have to replace the front hub. Can I again clean the sensor and hub myself? I have a bead blaster would that likely clean it enough? Would coating the cleaned metal with something like a really light oil (like WD 40) to stop the rusting? And lastly, if I am successful in cleaning it all does the computer need to be reset or will it reset itself? I have some skills, have done brakes, replaced engines and stuff like that.
Camry :: VSC And TRAC OFF Light Stays On

View 1 RepliesLS / MKZ :: Advance Trac Light Flashing On And Off Intermittently
My 2005 Lincoln LS V8 has 126,000 miles on it. The advance trac light (the little car with the skid marks trailing it) has been on and off intermittently for the past 15,000 miles.
Today, the light began flashing constantly after my mechanic plugged the code machine into the car to diagnose the Check Advance Trac message. From this, I know that I need a $900 sensor or module for the permanent repair. The "Check Advance Trac" message still is intermittent, but the little car is flashing now constantly.
Is there a way to have the light stop flashing and return to being on intermittently or on solidly all the time-without replacing the unit? Did the mechanic do something or not reset something correctly?
Also, can a used unit be used to replace mine? My goal is to get another 14 months and 30,000 miles out of my car so I can replace it with a CPO 2013 MKZ.

Vehicle is a 2003 SLE 3.0 L 1MZ-FE V6 Automatic. Problem: Check Engine Light on & TRAC Off Light on. AutoZone diagnostic produced three codes, P0155, all referring to Bank 2 Sensor 1. Was told downstream however after ordering matching DENSO part and then taking said part to a mechanic to install, mechanic tells me AutoZone diagnostic was incorrect. His diagnostic was telling him the malfunctioning O2 sensor was upstream, not downstream. Yet he did not tell me if it was left or right bank. He told me to find out from AutoZone or Advance Auto Parts?.I just want to make sure I get the right 02 sensor so I don't have to go through having the incorrect part installed again then removed just so I can return it to get the correct part. I've been told my car has three sensors, two up front, one underneath. I am aware it is best to get DENSO over Bosch.

This is a new phenomenon for me and from what I have read it could be the emissions system, gas cap or Catalytic. Clearing the codes only brings the lights back on when I put the car in drive or reverse. I know I can replace the gas cap (cheap) Replace the catalytic ( more expensive - since the exhaust has a rupture in the braid) and have the emissions sensor replaced (marginal cost)....
