What code reader to use on a 95 Villager? by sjs58
Dec 23, 2005 (7:45 pm)
I'm a little stumped on what OBDI code reader will work with my wife's 95 Villager. Should it be the Ford or Nissan reader? The local auto parts guy says it's the Ford reader, but I'm doubtful that it would hook up. Looks to me that the data plug is by the fusebox while he says it's under the hood like my wife's old Ford Tempo. Which of course can't be found.
 
Thanks in advance.

Re: 94 Villager Lock Cylinder Replacement - How to? [ebuss] by 1hipmom

I have a 99 Nissan Quest (automatic) which has been pretty much a driveway ornament for the past few weeks as I cannot get the key to turn in the ignition. The key goes in and out of the ignition cylinder just fine - it just won't turn. Car is parked on flat driveway with no obstructions or potholes causing interference with wheels. I have tried the following:
 
1) removing the key from the key chain. (working on the heavy key chain theory) RESULT=nada
 
2) jiggling the key and turning the steering wheel as I tried to turn the key in the ignition. RESULT=worse than nada; all this did was lock the steering wheel, and now I cannot unlock it!
 
3) checked the shift lever to be sure I was in park (the shift lever is on the steering column). RESULT=nada again, and I should note that I cannot move the shift lever at all.
 
4) bought graphite powder and graphite spray, sprayed into ignition cylinder, on key, all over self, etc. RESULT=key still will not turn, out of pocket $5, hands are covered in black stain and have black smudges on face from rubbing forehead trying to figure out what to try next. feel minor headache coming on.
 
5) drove to auto parts store with black stained hands and face and bought Haynes manual and 'universal ignition cylinder assembly' thinking maybe I could just replace the ignition cylinder. RESULT=customers at auto parts store look at me strangely and guy behind counter who sold me graphite stuff tries hard to stifle laughter.
 
6)I was further tortured into thinking relief is in sight since Haynes manual makes changing ignition cylinder look very easy, until I get to the part where it says that I have to turn the key to the ON position in order to slide the cylinder out. RESULT=Headache is getting worse. Out of pocket another $30 for manual and ignition cylinder assembly.
 
I should add that this vehicle has been cursed since day one, but mostly with electrical type gremlins. You can imagine how thrilled I am to have a new challenge...
 
While here in Vermont it is fairly common to have at least one if not several non-functioning vehicles in one's front yard, I would prefer to use this piece o junk to get to work as originally intended. Any suggestions on what the problem is and what to try next would be most appreciated.

My 96 Villager has the same problem. I have traced the problem to a ground not coming out of the front control panel. I have decided to just add a ground wire to the rear blower control switch that is located on the front control panel. Much cheaper than replacing the front panel.

I just had my water pump and timing chain replaced on my '96 Villager. It ran fine for a little over a week, but is now running hot again and leaking like it was prior to replacing the water pump!
 
Of course its headed back to the mechanic, but I fear he'll say it's something else!!! Wadaya think?
