What is the easiest way to cancel a route once you've entered the address? I like to enter some addresses ahead of time, but not necessarily want to go right away? Is it 'postpone route'?
View 5 RepliesI accidently press on the suspend route and not it doesn't navigate for me. I know its just as simple as pressing the option but its "frozen". So lost without the navigation system.
View 2 RepliesI had my wallet and key stolen and my spare has somehow gone missing too. A dealership has quoted me half hour to program and an hour and half to reseed.
One of the things I was told is I need the reseed to cancel any previous fobs the car was programmed to. I don't care if the old fob is out there and could be used for my car. If this is the only reason for reseed I don't want it.
I am confused. Somewhere I think I read that if you don't have any keys then you'll need a reseed no matter what.
I had the black logo fob, not a proximity one.
Why a reseed needs to be done when you have no key to go off, or why you don't.
So the other day, I noted the OFF was lit up on the sensor cancel button. I can't do anything to get it to quit, and the sensors don't react to objects with a beep. I looked around but couldn't find anything with the terms I used.
View 5 RepliesJust serviced an '03 F150 (4.6/4R70/4x4, 129,000 miles) where the shifter had come clean off. I replaced it with the Dorman replacement and had the battery disconnected during replacement just in case.
Once it was all hooked up I put the neg batt cable back on and turned on the key. If I hit the OD button it would only illuminate momentarily, ie so long as I was holding the button. I thought that odd so I started the truck and then hit the button again at which point it blew fuse 29.
I replaced Fuse 29 and now the OD cancel button is illuminated constantly - PRND21, doesn't matter. It will not toggle off. I thought maybe it was the switch itself at the end of the shifter and I just happened to have a new-in-the-sealed-bag Ford OEM switch that I swapped in, but no change. I also pulled the Dorman part again and checked for a short between the three wires that run in the shifter, but they're all good.
Then I pulled Fuse 29 and it still won't shift into OD while driving on the highway.
Oh, I will say it appears to be overfilled, I'm gonna see if I can suck some out of the dipstick tube but I'm not confident an overfill would cause this.
OD cancel light always on (does NOT flash). Will not shift into OD at any speed. No codes.
Basically I think something is wrong mechanically and the truck is trying to say so with the constant OD light.
I use a vent mount for my phone and my old car had the aux-in by the radio so I used a little retractable cable to my phone. Now in the prius the aux-in jack is way in the back of the arm rest what is the best way to route the cable there?
No nav, so no bluetooth streaming for me.
Since my daughter has been complaining for lack of entertainment in the rear-seat while traveling, so rather than purchase a mobile DVD, headrest monitors seemed to make a better investment.
Today I took the headrest out of the drivers side to take some measurements and see if I can route wires through them, to under the seat. Didn't look likely. I also did not see any seat opening at the rear of the front seats.
I have heated seats so I don't wanna mess-up that aspect of these seats. Is there any way to route the wires without tearing up the seats. How this can be done. I want to get this info before ordering the monitors.
I'm going to be tapping into my water supply for the Turbo and WG cooling. Where do I run the water back into? Or, what have others done?
View 1 RepliesI am installing a wiring harness in my 2007 Camry SE so that I can tow a small flatbed utility trailer I have to carry my kayak on trips. I have the wiring harness all installed except for I now have to route the power cable for the harness from the trunk to the battery in the front of the car. The instructions give no suggestions on how to get the wire to the battery other than to avoid hot parts and suspension parts.
What would be the best and easiest way to get the wire to the front? I'm not well versed in car mechanics or how to take things apart so I would prefer the easiest, most direct way if there is one.
I have already found a grommet in the trunk with a factory wire harness going through it to the bottom of the car so I can route my wire through there, but after that where to go next. The only thing I can think of is there is several brackets holding the 2 fuel lines and the 2 rear brake lines, there is a open spot between the 2 fuel lines so I could use the empty spot in those brackets to hold the wire for most of the way to the front, do fuel lines get hot at all? Do you think it would be safe to route the wire that way?
As for getting into the engine compartment, how to do that without getting in the way of the front suspension while keeping the wire away from the transmission and axles.
If this is too complicated to do myself, my dad has a friend who is a electrician and likes to restore cars that could do it for me but he is almost always busy, thus hard to get a hold of and I like to try and learn some things about my car and do as much as I can on my own.
This is the trailer light wiring harness I have, there is a link for the instruction manual there too

Is there a way to determine the distance to a city on the NAV route that occurs before the final set destination city?
View 5 RepliesGetting used to my new-to-me 2012 Prius, and my nav does something weird and hoping the experts here can tell me if this is an antenna issue or a nav system issue. So I know where to focus.
Sometimes I'll be on the freeway and the nav suddenly thinks I've moved off the freeway to a parallel location just off the freeway and starts reroute me all over the place. Similarly I might be on the freeway and it suddenly tells me to get off the freeway when I'm miles from my destination and there's no reason to be getting off.
Thoughts on how I can fix this?
I bought 2000 Ranger with rear half of the frame cut and welded.
The mechanics who did this did terrible job of putting things where they belong. I rerouted wiring harness and rebuilt EVAP lines, but cannot figure out what is the correct route for parking brake cable.
Currently some part of the parking brake cable is sitting on the leaf spring. It may also be missing some mounting brackets or clips. Looking for a picture or diagram showing parking brake cable routing?
I don't have ready access to my truck and I'm trying to buy new cooling parts when I rip out/replace my transmission. I searched the forum but can't find the simple answer I'm looking for regarding the route of the transmission fluid for cooling.
In my 2001, I thought the fluid comes out of the transmission to the radiator, then back to the transmission from last time I was looking at it underneath. But in the forum, it sounds the fluid would come out of the radiator and then into the air cooler in front of the radiator before back to the transmission.
I cannot find the TPMS reset button. My car is GS350 f sport 2013 model.
View 3 Replies2006 6.0l ... I've read all over for tips on routing this belt and everyone plays it off as being some simple '20-minute' task. I'm on my 4th hour on this now.
I can't figure out how to route the belt around the tensioner pulley, circled in the picture (from another thread). Everyone glosses over how to do this and I can't figure it out.
It seems like the only way to get it on is to bend the belt and slide it between the pulley and the block, but that I just can't reach the blasted thing.

About, 2013 GS 350 AWD, I know the cd drive takes mp3 format and I am planning to burn a cd mp3. Can I burn a DVD mp3 since it holds more songs? Does it accept 4.7gb or 8.5gb dvd mp3 data format? Also, I have the ipod classic 140gb and have plenty of songs, i am planning to give it to her. Is the connection easy as plugging in the usb port?

I tried putting the key in a couple metal foil bags, with no luck. My last resort will be to pull the battery out of the smart key...
I just had 10,000 mile service performed on my 2014 ES300H. I mentioned to the service manager that my mileage has come down to 36-38 mpg from 39-41 earlier. He advised me not to rely on the car display reading but do it manually for more accuracy. He said that many owners have found that they get better mileage than shown by the display.
