#2036 of 2457 Re: Power window on passager side stop working [murphygirl] by ts60423 Dec 02, 2005 (9:35 am)
Replying to: murphygirl (Nov 26, 2005 5:10 pm) It depends on what you are capable of in the way of repairs. Check fuses and check the power switches - they pop out of the arm console easily without taking apart the door. If one has a bad connection, niether the driver or passenger side switches will work. If that does not help, then use a repair manual (if you feel comfortable with it) and take the door apart and take a look.

Replying to: eeyore1 (Dec 02, 2005 5:29 pm) If it is humming a Looney Toone don't complain. Seriously, it probably is the tires. The tires tend to cup on these vans if not rotated very often. When they are cupped they hum.

#2041 of 2457 Re: I've replaced my alternator 3 times in the last month! Help!!!! [ts60423] by crackchecker Dec 05, 2005 (9:02 am)
Replying to: ts60423 (Dec 02, 2005 9:27 am) Another thing to look at would be a battery with a internal short. Load test it!!!   My 88 Escort just recently lost the alternator and it was related to the battery going out.
#2043 of 2457 2000 Venture Fuel guage/dome lights/hesitation by 123venture Dec 05, 2005 (12:11 pm)
I'm having problems with my fuel guage moving from empty to full. This normally happens when I'm down to a quarter tank of gas.   Also have no interior lights at all. If I open my doors or use the switch on the dash board there are no lights at all. (Dome light) all other are fine. JUST MY DOME LIGHTS DON'T WORK.   I also have hesitation when I acellerate and can't figure out what it is. Wires have been changed but not the plugs to hard to get at. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.   thanks Replies to this message: byker220 (Dec 14, 2005 5:54 am) 123venture (Dec 14, 2005 6:46 am) just4fun2 (Dec 14, 2005 1:10 pm) and 1 more...
#2044 of 2457 Chugging/Hesitation 2000 Venture by 123venture Dec 07, 2005 (5:42 am)
Please read below this is from a previous member and this was how they fixed his problem. I like to find out where I can check for corrosion on the pins where the cable is plugged in that goes to the guage readings on the dash.   Do not let them put in a new sensing guage inside of the fuel tank before they check for corrosion on the pins where a cable is plugged in that goes to the guage readings on the dash. after they cleaned the pins I didnt have any more problems. I learned the hard way because that sensing unit they put in the gas tank cost me about $400 Dollars and I dont think that I needed it.
#2045 of 2457 Re: Aluminum Corrosion [agt_cooper] by rustbucket Dec 07, 2005 (2:38 pm)
Replying to: agt_cooper (May 26, 2005 11:05 am) I'm an automotive corrosion engineer. You're right about galvanic corrosion occurring where you mix steel and aluminum, but that's not what's happening with the hood in this case. The problem on the hood is just corrosion of the aluminum. When steel rusts, it is red. When aluminum rust, it's white/milky. The problem is 'filiform corrosion.' This happens with aluminum that's covered with a paint or other similar coating. When aluminum is exposed to air, it forms a protective alumunium oxide film on the surface (about 1nm thick), which protects the aluminum underneath. When you get a chip in the paint on your aluminum hood, water gets under the chip. The salt/water starts to attack the aluminum. Because it's held in by the paint, it doesn't dry out and have a chance to reform the aluminum oxide.
