Horn continuously beeping when switched off
OhareFred replied to Grippo's topic in Electrical, Battery & Charging
I agree. Look into the clock spring recall. There was also a recal for a wire loom, but I think that's was to the drivers door. If you try to fix it yourself, be careful of the airbag! Good luck! -

There was a recall for the clock spring on some models. When you buy used, you take your chances. Could have been in a wreck.... -

Lights turn on with wipers?
OhareFred replied to Maritimer1577's topic in Glass, Lighting, Mirrors, Sun Roofs & Wipers
My 09 dimmer has a "parade" setting that turns the dash up to full brightness. When night comes and the headlights turn on, I twist the dimmer and they go down. Not really an issue for me... -

OhareFred replied to Maritimer1577's topic in Glass, Lighting, Mirrors, Sun Roofs & Wipers
Some states require lights on with wipers, such asIllinois. D R L's don't count. When the headlights are on auto and u turn the wipers on, they come on. You can adjust the dash lights to full on by adjusting the dimmer. -
My thinking when I said remove the positive cable was that the radio has its own ground wire. if the positive is still attached, the radio may not reset because it may ground itself, UNLESS you disconnect at the battery. I said disconnect at the jumping post. I also assumed that it he poster would know not to let the cable touch metal, which was poor judgment on my part! Although, I think just about everyone who's turned a wrench has had the exciting experience of shorting the positive cable/wrench and seeing sparks and didn't blow up the car...lol

DJ won't start! New redtop battery too,
OhareFred replied to Jon Mac's topic in Electrical, Battery & Charging
I don't think the flashlight (torch) cause the battery drain. Mine pops half way out all the time. I'll go in the rear and find it that way. If it's not all the way locked in, it won't charge. Nice diagnosis on the bad cable! -
Try resetting radio dis disconnecting positive battery cable for 30 mins. Worked for others. You can disconnect it at the jump point.

Vehicle lamp failures
OhareFred replied to Bruce Lindsay's topic in Glass, Lighting, Mirrors, Sun Roofs & Wipers
How many miles? Who installed the started? Did u buy new? Did you check the electrical system? What is your battery voltage while the car is running? Do you drive a lot at night? If you want answers, we need more information. -

Air Bag light comes on ...
OhareFred replied to jaymista's topic in Audio, Infotainment Navigation, MyGig, UConnect, etc.
Wasn't there a recall on the clock spring? That could be causing the issue. Never ignor the airbag light! If on your airbags don't work! -
Shouldn't be any issue. All the voltages are 12 v to the bulbs. The bulb assembly does all the converting if necessary. Also, now there are 12 volt led bulbs.

Engine Oil Change Indication, Premature?
OhareFred replied to quarterwave's topic in Engine & Transmission
On my 09 it comes on exactly at 2500 miles. It has from day one. I just reset it and when it comes on again, in exactly 2500 miles,I know it's time for my Mobil 1 oil change. I think it's bs. At 2500 miles the oil isn't even dirty. But that's just me...l -
