Re: Ground Locations

Well, did that, and there was no change. The change (yes there was one) was when I killed a spider crawling across the top of my gauge cluster. I smashed it with malice (I hate spiders) and the lights went away. So, to check it... I smacked the top of the dash again, lights back on. Another smack, l...

Re: Ground Locations

Luckily I think it will be pretty easy, I should be able to pull the wires and the connectors from the body of the housing, separate the wires from the connectors, cut the wires above the crimped sections, and then insert the ends into the connectors, and then put those back into the body of the hou...

Re: Ground Locations

So... Ya, there's a fan in that compartment at the bottom of up pointing up towards the modules. Hey, at least I know it works. The TCM however... I pulled it out and in nice black sharpie it says "original". At that very moment... I thought to myself "F*@k"! I had two wires in t...

It was coming from the enclosed compartment on the passenger side just in front of the seco...

P1747 and P0600 With Trans Fail Safe

So, something weird with my Z3. I love my car... but today, and a few others...... I want to bury it. I don't know what the hell the problem is with it, but it will pull a P01747 and a P0600 code when the day is hot and the car has been left in the sun...
