Q:Hi all i had a 1999 EJ8 with MF816 vtec sohc engine my problem this morning is that my car fail to start the only clue that i notice is that my abs check light wont turn off but blinking instead anyone experience this?

The ABS blinking light usually means that there is a problem with your anti-lock break system. Did it quit blinking and go away after you started it and drove it around for a bit? If so, then the car not starting probably reset the system and there is nothing wrong with your ABS System. If it is still blinking, I would take it to a mechanic that could hook up the coder machine to pin point what specifically happened in the brakes for the light to come on. The ABS light should have nothing to do with the car not starting. Process of elimination would be to check the battery first. Make sure that the cables are secured tightly to the terminals and that there is no corrosion. If the corrosion is bad, it will cause you car not to start. You can clean it up with baking soda and water, or your local parts store (which I prefer) has a spray cleaner to get the corrosion off. Take a steel brush and clean any of the corrosion that is left. Have the auto parts store test your battery and alternator to make sure those parts are not going out on you. Then the next step would be to check the starter. If your check/service engine light is on, they can pull the codes for you and tell you specifically what is happening with your engine, (I know Advanced Auto and Auto Zone have code readers and it's a free service). I hope this helps, best of luck!

Q:I just got a piece of **** car, and whenever i brake, or when i turn the left side blinker on, the taillight dims instead of getting brighter. Also, the left turn signal blinks slower than the right turn signal. Even on the dash, the little arrow blinks slower than on the right. I compared the actual bulb with the other, and its dimmer when lit. I JUST bought new bulbs twenty minutes ago, even the old bulbs did this. So i don‘t know if i have a short in the wire or what, i already looked back by the light and all the wires are old, but look fine. I don‘t know if somewhere inside the car frame something happened or up where they go to the battery, but the whole left side lighting system is screwed up. Any help before i call the auto shop?

If there was a short, it would blink faster because of more current passing through the flasher relay. Sounds like you have corrosion somewhere in the system, causing increased resistance. No choice but to start at the bulbs, and grounds, and clean every connection along the way.

Q:had dead batt now it's gone crazy when i went to jump start it the alarm went bannanas but hear the problem bought the truck used and had no idea it ean had an alarm to get it to stop the noise i cut the horn/siren now the blue light flashes all the time never flashed b 4 ..and its makeing a quite clicking noise like every 30 seconds .....so with no remote what would you do .... btw its a 1999 burban

is it an after market alarm or is it factory fitted to the car? If it is factory fitted you should be able to get a remote from the manufacturer, if not, your gonna have to remove the alarm system. can be tricky because there are heaps of wires hooked up to the control module.

Q:now why do you suppose car manufacturers such as toyota,nissan basically all auto manufacturers integrate such system.i mean come on its DAYTIME it not like its dark or anything.and the fact that it also draining the life of your battery its just my opinion i think its useless

If Having lights on during the daytime helps to avoid even one accident, SAVE one life, because the car was more visible then I am all for them. The Fact is that they DO not drain the life from a battery as they only are on after the car is running and the Alt is actually running the entire Electrical makes you statement moot.

Q:I have looked behind the dash and there is no bulb, it passed the mot in feb but with the new vosa, will this mean my car will fail, or if I put a new bulb in and it flashes, dose anyone no away around this prob I have heard it can be very expensive
