All the fuses in the fuse panel are good. http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1357612&rss=1 Wed, 1 Jul 2009 16:41 GMT So, I got my brick running again. What I thought was an ignition problem turned out to be a slipped timing belt. Anyway, everything was working for a blissful day and a half; but after that my lo-beams, parking lights, fog lights and dash lights all went out. I've been all through the kick panels and console looking for a bad relay ("main light relay"?) but haven't found a bad one and I'm not sure what I'm looking for or where to find it. Does anyone know where it is or what could be the problem? http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1357584&rss=1 Wed, 1 Jul 2009 14:54 GMT So, one day I was getting ready for the morning commute when my 1985 245 DL died suddenly at the edge of the parking lot. I pushed it back into a spot and it hasn't moved since. That was a few months ago. There's no spark from the coil--due to the fact, I believe, that there is no pulse coming from the ICU. I checked the voltages at the coil. B+ on both low-tension leads while the key is in the ON position. I checked the voltages at the hall sensor: 12V 5V 0V. I simulated the function of the hall sensor by briefly jumpering the 5V and 0V leads. I checked for power and ground at the ICU connector. I cleaned and ensured a proper fit for the ICU connector. I replaced the ICU. In all cases, there was no pulse at the coil and no spark. Is there some component in this circuit that I'm missing? I've heard talk of a 'breaker unit' (whatever that is) feeding a pin on the ICU but I have no idea what it does or where it is on the car. I really don't know what else to try. http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1351240&rss=1 Sat, 30 May 2009 15:14 GMT I will be keeping one as a spare spare, as my current spare has never touched the road. I'm planning on using 185/75R14's, because that's what I've already got on the other wheels. http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=446665&rss=1 Mon, 18 Mar 2002 17:42 GMT Greetings fellow bricksters. I was just about to replace two of the tires on my wagon with brand new units, and I got to wondering which axle would make the best use of them. The two old tires that will be left on the wagon are still in fairly good condition. I'm leaning toward the front, on the basis that steering is of primary importance. What do you all think? http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=446643&rss=1 Mon, 18 Mar 2002 17:08 GMT I just ripped mine out, along with the whole cold start/warm up system. (Those air box thermostats are known to fail open and fry the AMM) If your climate will permit it, I suggest that you simply do the same. http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=423629&rss=1 Fri, 25 Jan 2002 03:51 GMT Use the text input below to search brickboard.com query http://www.brickboard.com/FIND/
