Bbudwich replied to the thread PCV hose removal / cleaning - CV side.yes.... the amount of vacuum being pulled thru the "metered orifice" on the other side may not be enough to over come the "fresh air intake" at the resonator. I probably need to cap the barb...

Bbudwich replied to the thread PCV hose removal / cleaning - CV side.Thanks for the hints. As suggested, removing the brake vac line helped get better leverage and hand access... plus I was then able to see what I was up against in terms of the length of the...

Like.
Moving the brake booster vacuum hose out of the way gives you a bit more room to work and is easy to do. The plastic barb is, hopefully, tougher than you think. I say hopefully because you never... -
BOn my 2008 TB 4.2l with 240kkm plus, I thought that perhaps its a good time to pay some attention the the PCV path.... especially since it appears that perhaps the system is not working "well"...

OK, update. I tested the continuity between the female slots 71 & 72 on the ECM connector and the female slots on the knock sensor harness connector. Both had continuity and no resistance. I had...

Bbudwich replied to the thread SOLVED! AC not working. General question, please?.why are you asking for the forum to "guess" what you can easily find out by using the equipment that you got?
-
Bbudwich replied to the thread NEED HELP CEL with P0332 rear knock sensor - how to test wire?.Actually, I think this code (and related sister code) means that the system will not being doing its job as the system disregards the output from the sensor and thus there is NO compensation done...

Bbudwich reacted to Mooseman's post in the thread NEED HELP CEL with P0332 rear knock sensor - how to test wire? with Like.
Here's the schematic for the knock sensors. You'll want to check the wires for sensor #2. Be sure to check resistance/continuity from the sensor wires to the PCM and also to ground on both...

Bbudwich replied to the thread NEED HELP CEL with P0332 rear knock sensor - how to test wire?.Reply Have you actually looked at your misfire counts? There are likely other things associated with actual firing issues that would show up if you look at fuel trims.
-
Bbudwich replied to the thread No power after stereo pulled out..why did you pull the radio? Maybe there was some "back feeding" happening for voltages and when its gone, so is the "back feeding".... maybe check fuses.
-
Bbudwich replied to the thread Engine Dies at 40mph 1500rpm and 140 degrees....I think you have an electrical issue... potentially powering of the PCM. The "check engine" should be coming on. As tjbaker57 has stated, check powering and grounds going to the pcm.... maybe...

Bbudwich replied to the thread Engine Dies at 40mph 1500rpm and 140 degrees....what does this mean? no dash lights at all or no specific lights associated with some system (ie. fuel level, brake, battery...etc).

Bbudwich replied to the thread NEED HELP CEL with P0332 rear knock sensor - how to test wire?.Now you getting into the "dirt".... both readings are "too conveniently low".... yet only one "complains". Its quite possible that your meter / leads might be "uncalibrated" such that a "small...

Bbudwich replied to the thread NEED HELP CEL with P0332 rear knock sensor - how to test wire?.Yes... that is the "simple test".... its basically used to "thumb check" the system side of things.... looking for some sort of "draw" (less then infinite). Of course, the results don't take...
-
Bbudwich replied to the thread NEED HELP CEL with P0332 rear knock sensor - how to test wire?.The SM "suggests" a "simple" impedance test of the wiring. Basically, disconnect the sensor. With an ohm meter, measure at the connector, each pin back to a known good ground. The reading...

Bbudwich replied to the thread Headlight Lens Cleaning.After another ugly winter, I thought I would add my "effort" to this nice thread. My 2008 has been "hazed" for a while (240kkm). I decided to give some elbow effort along with some "DIY" (ie...

Bbudwich replied to the thread SOLVED! Washer and wipers turn on when truck started.I think so... I don't have the feature on my 2008..... but the feature does appear to have potential input in the motor module..... BUT there are some "strange things" that happen with respect...

Bbudwich replied to the thread SOLVED! Washer and wipers turn on when truck started.There are three connection coming from the turn stock. One is for high and one to produce the variable speed indication / mist. That control line is somewhat "resistive intense"... meaning...

Bbudwich reacted to krunal88's post in the thread SOLVED! Washer and wipers turn on when truck started with Like.
I didn’t do a lot of diagnosing on my end. Thought the multifunction switch would be the easiest attempt and for $22 off Amazon it was worth a shot. My old switch had all the lettering on it rub...
-
Bbudwich replied to the thread SOLVED! Washer and wipers turn on when truck started.How did you do this? My guess is that you have a dodgy wash relay and not a motor issue... maybe although it looks like the motor module does have a big part and the washer would likely run...
