problem seems like a bad IAC valve - When I start it, it runs at 2000 for 10 sec then starts varying between 1000 & 2000 rpm at idle. Over 2400 it is level. If I pull the connector it will vary quickly around 1500 rpm as soon as it is started. Cold or hot no difference. 10 sec delay will happen every time it is started.
I just replaced the air cleaner and cleaned the PCV valve, which seems to work about the same as a new one, then this started. Coincidence or something else wrong - like an air leak? How can I be sure it is the IAC??

I've pulled the air intake and plugged the bottom throttle port and it goes to idle. the only trouble code is 0505 unless of course I pull the connector. Pulling the throttle position sensor plug yields a constant 2000 rpm and an code indicating it is open.

thanks.

How do I unstick a sunroof on a 1988 Volvo 740? The sunroof motor died when it went back into the roof and now it's stuck open. I'm pretty good about trying to fix things on my own, yet I'm no mechanic. How tough is this job and is it possible to do in a couple hours?

Is the Ford Fusion really better than the Camry and Accord?

How does it compare to the new Maxima?

I need to know exactly. I want to duplicate that car for my own selfish reasons.

Make, year, and what modifications were most likely used to make him look the way he did.

That would be one sharp vehicle for cruising..

I have a 1999 Mercedes Benz 300E and when pressing the horn it does nothing.

I put a meter on the horn relay and it was putting out 12 volts whether I had the horn pressed in or out. I found this to be strange because I would think it would only put out the 12V when the horn was pressed, and should put out nothing if the horn was not pressed, but that was not the case.
I have replaced the horn relay and that did not solve the problem.

I have been trying to find a fuse for the horn and I have not found a fuse that directly relates to the horn. If anyone knows the location of the horn fuse, please advise.

Does anyone have any thoughts on how I might resolve this issue. Also, If anyone has any idea what other items I need to check to troubleshoot this problem, it would be greatly appreciated,

I have a 1996 Plymouth Grand Voyager. It hiccups. By this, I mean it loses all power for a fraction of a second. It is as if the battery and alternator had been removed for a fraction of a second. It may go a few hundred miles without doing this and it may do it several times in one mile. If this happens while stopped or going very slow, the motor will die and you will have no power steering. You can immediately shift to “neutral” and start the engine and it will run fine. When this happens while going fast, say 70 MPH on freeway in Cruise Control, the speedometer will head to zero, but before it gets there the engine will restart and everything will be back to normal except cruise control will be off. You cannot get back to cruise by pressing “resume”. You must first turn Cruise on, get to desired speed and press “Set”. Sometimes the “Check Engine” light will come on after one of these hiccups. It will go off after a start or two. It has a code 12 (Battery input to PCM disconnected during last 50 key starts) which stays stored. Sometimes, after the “Check Engine” light comes on , it will temporarily store either a code 13 or 54. I have had the Cam position sensor replaced, but I doubt the old one was defective. What could cause this? Thanks
