      My 2002 without any rain sense option also suffered that same stuttering behaviour. Same solutuon, opening up the works and cleaning those rings/contacts.

      The original hood struts thread got off the rails with this hazards issue so moved all the related posts to its own thread.

      They are hosting on 3 different domains in 3 different countries I presume. Laos, Ukraine, and Guyana.

      Not sure where this might belong so posting it here. Went to CHARM.LI just now and became aware of this..... new website up for manuals. https://lemon-manuals.org.ua/

      This is where Apps like Torque Pro and Car Scanner can help by long term recording of data. Easier to do with Car Scanner than Torque Pro but either can do it. A recording might catch a momentary...

      Posting this just to enable people searching on this topic. In trying to buy the correct end links for my AWD 2003 Bravada, I found that there were various tie rod ends depending on...

      I removed the actuator top cover first. This allowed me to remove the actuator without ever having to cut anything at all. Naturally this only works if the replacement actuator is of the same...

      I just replaced my CV boots and the axle seal on the divers side. I was able to stick a flat head pry bar "the kind with a plastic handle" through the a arm mount and behind the axle and put...

      This is likely a circuit protection Schottky diode based on the lead count, markings & package size. A Google search on "43s" three pin smd component "44" gives the following (AI) summary: Based...

      Well, sort of. The early years do have have a secondary circuit that bypasses the SP205 splice pack and runs between the PCM and BCM. However, I have traced the two different circuits on a BCM...

      Well it sort of was... I think 2004 was the first year for that system. My 2002 does not have it.

      That is a relay. Cannot say what it is for. It likely came loose from where it has lived up to now.

      BTDT Also traced the circuitry and tested the various resistances and such.

      Relays and circuit breakers are completely different devices. They cannot replace each other. A relay will have no less than 4 connections. A circuit breaker will have just 2.

      Are you perhaps looking at the relay number upside down? I have checked like 5 or 6 references and they all say device 6 is NOT USED. Guessing you are looking at device 9? And it is not a relay...

      FWIW, the BCM cannot see anything from the rear wiper. The rear wiper is wired to the LGM in the hatch. The switch is wired to the BCM and the BCM sends an appropriate serial data message to...

      I have had another gear lose a tooth. So while it is less common I would say it is possible that future troubles may arise with the other old gears. Personally I wouldn't worry about it with...

      Here is a short video showing the voltages as displayed by a DMM. Naturally you cannot get accurate voltage readings of microsecond pulses using a DMM but you can see the activity. In addition to...

      OK then... When testing for voltages there will be none unless the module under test is actually broadcasting. Most modules have a fair quantity of responsibilities that may keep them active for...

      How exactly did you do these tests?? Were any wires disconnected during your tests? If you did not disturb or otherwise disconnect anything while testing then probing all the various 'pins' is...

      First I want to thank you all for taking your time to help me with this issue. I ended up going through a seller on eBay and bought the right front door sensor and harness. It was almost plug...

      As far as the ABS and Brake warning light the C0265 would be the first DTC to be addressed. That DTC is independent of serial data, it looks to be saying there is an issue with the power or ground...
