    Ac partially not working

    My 2008 TB A/C wouldn’t kick on due to low engine temperature. The tech said a bad thermostat that doesn’t get the engine up to temp quick enough, makes it think it doesn’t have any water in the block, thus shutting down compressor. A fault reset would let it run once. A new engine thermostat...

    How to get rid of smoke from vehicle

    I know this is an old thread, but for the uninformed, an ozone generator is an electronic device, about the size of a shoebox. Plug it in and set the timer for a couple of hours. I got mine at Home Depot for just over $100. It will also remove pet odors from the home, leaving everything fresh...

    Motorcycle enthusiasts? Lots of pics.

    Rainy day, and can't ride. Might as well show off the bikes on the internet. 2006 Honda ST1300 sport touring. 2008 Goldwing during 1000 mile round trip to FL. The Wing has a few miles on it! This pic is when I got home from PA a couple of years ago. Nashcat

    Identify This Bose System w/Pictures & RPO Code

    Have you removed and tested your speakers. I was going to pull my head unit to start looking for reason that both rear speakers had quit working in my '08 TB. Then I read how cheap the factory speakers are. Yep, both speakers had blown coils, and wouldn't make a sound. New speakers solved...

    Options for installing Sirius in 2007 Trailblazer

    Do you have XM on your factory radio? If so, you can use your existing XM antenna and there are several threads about taping into the XM feed to get the audio to your factory radio instead of using the Sirius FM transmitters. Nashcat

    Netflix - Making a Murder

    On one of the TV news channels, they interviewed the prosecutor. He stated that the movie left out a lot of information about physical evidence, which made the movie seem biased. I haven't watched it yet, but I have to remind myself that it's a movie, from the directors point of view. Nashcat

    Where to look coolant gauge

    Well the problem is solved. The thermostat was causing the problems. I found that after driving about 5 miles, or so, the temperature gauge would stop working and drop to the 100 degree mark. Also, at the same time, the A/C compressor would quit running. When this would happen, there was no CEL...

    Where to look coolant gauge

    I started looking for the OEM parts and found them at Amazon for a good price. With my Prime account, I get free 2 day shipping, so I'll let the mailman drop them off Tuesday or Wednesday. That gives me time to fabricate a sensor socket and figure out how to get these old bones far enough under...

    Where to look coolant gauge

    Well, I'm going to look for the specialty socket, or see if I have one to make it out of. Another quick question, for the thermostat and sensor, do you recommend OEM or aftermarket? If OEM, I'll have to wait until Tuesday to get it. (Monday's my birthday). I'm retired and have other rides, so...

    Where to look coolant gauge

    Thanks for the help, guys. If the sensor is intermitant and throwing a code, would the gauge remain at 100F until the code was cleared? As soon as the code is cleared, the gauge starts working. I guess I'll go ahead and change thermostat and sensor (123,000 mi), but I hate throwing parts at...

    Where to look coolant gauge

    I've searched the forums for several days and can't find the info, so I'm asking for a little help. My 2008 TB, with I6 has been having this problem for several weeks, and I've narrowed it down, but don't know where to start looking. I thought I had 2 separate problems, but they are related. The...
