White/black + yellow + green On my rig, 2016 Trail Premium, the wasn't a blue wire ganged with the ground and green, it was yellow with silver. The other gang was green and white/black like OP said. I tapped the green that was ganged with the yellow and got the parking lights for my Roadshock...

Looks like it's called a detent spring and a detent spring cover? https://imgur.com/a/zvsz09r page 2563 of repair manual: (d) Install the detent spring and detent spring cover with the bolt. Torque: 10 N·m {102 kgf·cm, 7 ft·lbf}

hey guys, Doing a drain and fill on the transmission and, from the passenger side I started to loosen the filter - or I thought I was loosening the filter. Turns out, I loosened this little 10mm bolt. It pinches 2 pieces of flat steel that fit into some graduated steps. Question - how bad is...

Here's a vid of OBDII readouts on the frontage road. https://i.imgur.com/z1CDFZk.mp4

Last night I put the passenger side sensor back to factory (removed the simulator) and put 2 foulers on it (Dorman 42002 and 42009). So my setup now is your simulator on driver side and anti-foulers on passenger side. Here is a pic of Torque in my driveway after running for about 10 minutes...

Does this work for 4th gen? I'm reading through this and made an attempt for my 2003 4th gen. Texas is eliminating the need for inspections in about a year and I want to get rid of this code for my rig. I followed these instructions precisely, used solder and glue-tubed heat shrink but both...

I followed Chris Fix's instructions and pumped air into the tailpipe with my shop vac. Holy crap, both manifolds are leaking like crazy. The rear weld on both sides is cracked all the way around, one of the 02 sensors is leaking, most of the gaskets are leaking and, just to add insult to injury...

I think the headers are stock, they're rusty af if they're not. There is an aftermarket K&N cool air intake on it and I've always attributed the engine's sound - I'd say it sounds like a turbo-diesel when you rev it - to that cold-air intake (but it also kinda sounds like a vacuum leak to me if...

I'm getting a litany of codes from my 2003 v6 limited with ~220k. I haven't noticed anything wrong when driving the rig, fuel economy is a bit low (17mpg city, 21 hwy) but it's a 20yr old runner so... I'm getting 5 codes that'll show up after clearing within a few days. P0171 P0174 P0420...

anyone? Bueller? Bueller? I think I'm doing a bad job explaining where I found this, it had fallen out of the engine compartment on the passenger side and was hung up w/o fallign through to the ground. I'm not sure how long it'd been over there. Thanks guys and gals

It was coming out of the engine compartment on the passenger side. Seemed like it was a few rough roads from falling out completely. I don't think it has to do with the cat b/c that's farther down and back I believe. Good guess though. I think the only way to protect your cat now-a-days is by...

Hey guys, I've been hearing a rattling coming from the passenger side. I'd hear it if I was going slowly and hitting any sort of bump or minor chatter at all - I was imaging suspension parts falling apart or ball joints shearing - all sorts of horrors. I couldn't place it, heat shields were...

How I fixed mine Like the rest of the guys on this thread I noticed that my truck was hard to get into 3rd. I forced it, gorilla style and it worked, I went down to 2nd and when I tried to go back up it was stuck. I again forced it and something snapped and it got all sloppy. Took it apart...

You seem a bit confused with my setup. The DRL == DRL, no matter if they're the original yellow in bumper or if they're the strips in the headlight. Some specific examples. My DRL are on in the day (obviously, it'd be really dumb if they weren't). The DRL are off when the parking brake is...
