    Need Advice on Price

    OD light on, limp mode, think the wiring is burnt

    I had a similar issue with no tach and dim light. My fuse kept blowing. Found out the fuel heater in the fur filter was shorting it out. On the 94 the fuel heater is on the trans sensor, EEC/tcm, tach circuit go figure. Unplugged the fuel heater and have not had a blown fuse since. Hope thus...

    Thanks that was quite helpful and those look just like mine. However I do not know how he was able to compress one piston at a time with a c-clamp. For me I push one in, the other comes out. I took me doing that a couple of times before I put a piece a wood in there to do both at the same time.

    NO START, NO CRANKING CONDITION- seeking diagnostic avice!

    For me at least, a no start is a bad connection between the battery and cables, if not then between the the connectors and the cables. Before you go short circuiting anything.

I have the rubber/metal push pins that hold the caliper to the bracket. The only thing that has a bolt it is the break line to the caliper. Unless I am missing...
