I have read almost every thread on priuschat and I cannot seem to figure out how to install the HID relay on a 2011. The fusebox is different from the 2010 to 2011 model and that little cover that has the white wire (coming from what I believe is the battery) does not provide useable power?

View 3 RepliesI want to install a set of upfitter switches but my truck didn't come with them...so I bought the switches and the relay/wire harness as well...I cannot find any good information on where to mount the relay and where an extra plug on that harness goes too. I have found the wires that attach and go through the firewall but I am not sure where the rest of this mess goes...my truck did not come with the wire harness already installed...
View 4 RepliesI have a 2011 Camry, and I would like to install a wired backup camera. What's the best way of running it from the license plate area to the center dash?
I would like to replace the original radio with a new radio that has a built-in display, so ideally the camera cable would end up somewhere behind the radio. And I would like the cable to not be visible, if possible.
This is the item I'm considering buying: [URL] ....
I got the aftermarket lights through Yefeng, with quad HIDS. So after a while, Cluster lights, Vanity mirror lights, tail lights, cabin roof lights all started to flicker or strobe faintly. Very noticeable either when lights are on or off, drive or park.
Car has less than 12k miles.
I've been driving it like that with no problems. Except one morning before I left to work, car wouldn't start. (Happened randomly) Battery is good, alternator is good. Could something be pulling power from the alternator? I have no clue.
I just installed an Injen intake to my Sonata 2.0T, but now it doesn't feel as quick off the line. It sounds incredible but idk.. just feels a little sluggish now..
View 6 RepliesMy wife cracked in half the gas fill door on our 2012 SE. I ordered a new one online and painted it to match our car. I cannot figure out how to get the old one out and install the new one. I removed the 4 screws around the gas filler tube but how do I access the back to get out the old hinge?

View 2 RepliesWhere the magnetic clutch relay on a 2011 Camry is. I recently tried to refill the Freon in this car but after vacuuming the system and trying to add the Freon thorough a manifold set it does not appear to be getting added. I assumed this was a problem with the magnetic clutch relay. (also how I could get the part number for said relay).
View 2 RepliesI just purchased a 2011 Sonata. The low beams are not working and I am trying to diagnose the problem before I take it to the dealer in case it's just a blown fuse or bad relay. I have read through the owners manual and looked at both fuse compartments for the fuse and relays and to no avail. So, looking for the location of the low beam fuse and relay? I know there has to be a fuse for the headlights somewhere lol. Maybe I am missing it because of an abbreviation or something. What is the fuse name and I can go from there.

View 5 RepliesI have recently upgraded the factory sync system in my 2011 f350 lariat to a factory sync with NAV. I am looking for tha way to redirect the fideo feed to the rear view mirror to the nav system, I have found the wire coors and pin locations for the radio end, just need the info if there is a way to move it in the a pillar harness on the passenger side to the radi harness.
Did ford really put 2 different harnesses in the cab if you had nav or not? Factory nav unit and factory camera (camera was in the vehicle to begin with). the radio side is pin 1 and 6 on the 10 pin radio harness.
Can install a push button start feature on lower models of the Prius C? Example: I've been looking at C's but cost is a big issue. I figure I should wait to get a higher model with push start to get the whole Prius experience. The PC 2 is more in my price range, though.
View 3 RepliesMy wife and I have had a 2005 Prius for a little over a year now. When we bought it, the previous owner said the A/C system was new. Once the spring/summer hit, we realised that wasn't true- apparently the blower motor was replaced, but the compressor was bad (dealer confirmed). We just lived with it last summer, but I am wanting to replace it now before it warms up.
I am home mechanic- no professional, but I have done everything from engine rebuilds to engine swaps at my house before. There are very few jobs that my cars have needed that I haven't done myself. The Prius is one thing I haven't done much to, and am not completely familiar with. I looked at a diagram, and the compressor seems easy to access from below the car. I have ordered a service manual for the Prius, and will use that.
i am going to install built in DVD headrest monitors into my 2007 touring prius. I have posted questions about this before, but looking fopr detailed info on how to install these myself. Ive been told there is an amp under my drivers seat where i can do all the wiring, but I am not sure & don't want to screw things up. How to do this or has a wiring guide or anything like for this, that be real useful. Also, how to get the seat back off to feed the wires down, let me know that as well. I have the leather interior & the seat backs seem seamless. Its the power acoustik HDVD-9 model twin monitors.
View 2 RepliesRecently had HV battery replaced by dealer in my 2005 with 129k.
2 days later the 12v went dead. I removed and replaced it, no problem except when I tried to go to my nav the screen said "please install correct map dvd".
I have never had a problem with my nav since buying the car new in 2005. I assume the problem is connected to the loss of 12v power. The player is under the pass seat.
I have recently purchased Prius 2012 JDM. It s L edition (Base edition). I want to install fog lights and drl. But couldn't find any space.

View 4 Replieshad a couple questions about installing the front license plate. I currently do not have any holes drilled in the front bumper (though I can see the places where they are supposed to go). I have the black plastic attachment. What is the best way to drill those holes? Can it be done if I don't have a drill (i.e., just with a screwdriver and force)? Is this something the dealer might do for free (I don't have a warranty, bought my car used)?

View 1 RepliesFor a project I started, I need to remove the plastic cover from the inside of the hatch. I think many people did that to install a rear view camera. Looking for pictures, simple instructions set, or a reference to a repair manual that would clearly explain how to do that.
