Did ya get the problem fixed? We are having same problem(read my post) it seems to be the alarm, because it ran fine the 1st week we had it, then one nite, someone tried to break in it & set the alarm off- it didn't come with a remote key lock, but I turned the alarm off when I unlocked the truck with the key. But the next morning when I got in it to leave, it kept dying. So we put battery cables on it to jump it, it drove about 1/2 block then died. Now, it won't crank at all! Been to about 5 different shops, dealership included. No one seems to know how to shut the alarm off, bypass it or whatever need to be done to fix it. I am so upset & running out of money! So if ya have any ideas, please let me know! I hate for it to be a total loss because I don't have the money to buy anything else, now that I've put all this money into this truck. It's a 2001 isuzu rodeo 2wd-thank you for any help

I keep reading about these problems with the Passport...I had a Jetta that had similar problems and it was a fuel mix sensor that was bad. Good luck.

came across your problem. I have the same situation too with a 2002 rodeo I just purchased, however the radio I just installed professionally works. My dashboard lights and rear tail lights are out. Breaklights and headlights still ok.
In my case it was not the bulbs. And its baffled the technicians so far, as they check for shorts in all the wires and lights.
In my case I think the previous owner was doing some off-roading with it which is what the rodeo was designed to do, however it can really jar-up the electronics on the inside.

Popping in the rear end 99 Passport 4x4

I just bought this Honda with 81,000 miles on it and after driving it for a bit I've noticed a popping coming from the rear (what seems to be). when I'm rolling forward at a light I notice it more than coming to a stop but it happens wither or not my front wheels are turned which leads me to forget the bearings, CV joints, or front axle. Sometimes it will even cause the cab to bounce a little bit. I took it in to my mechanic and he checked out the front end and the bearings needed to be greased but were not terrible. He checked the rear fluid and seems to be fine, but other than that nothing out of the ordinary. I didn't have the time to have him drive it around to see if he could feel it so I thought I would try to find out if anyone had an idea of what it could be. thanks guys..

brendt: you said you had the same problem w/ your 2002 Rodeo? Do you mean you couldn't bypass or turn the alarm system off? And that yours wouldn't crank? If so, how did ya fix it? Ours not cranking started w/ the alarm being set off. Now the truck won't start at all- when trying to crank it it shuts everything down as if someone is trying to steal it. And no one-professionals, dealerships, etc, know how to fix it! I can't believe this! Don't know what else to do!

rickiesue: your truck is not cranking after the alarm was set off! try pushing a button under the fuse box ( to your left under your fuse box there's a small button that you have to push when you crank your truck) it happened to me and nobody know when I call the dealer so just tried this and it worked.

Were you able to fix your problem? just concern coz it happened to me too and the dealership dint help me at all so I just keep researching and there is this 1 button where (under the fuse box below the steering wheel ) that you have to push when you start the car. I think thats the switch to stop the alarm.

No, it's been sitting at another mechanics house for about a month now! They have tried everything. From what I remember, there's no button like you're describing, only a little light under there that lights up to show that the alarm was activated or working or whatever but nothing to push! I can not believe that no one can figure out how to fix it! I talked to the service manager at the dealershikp- he guaranteed me he could fix it, but that we need to put a new fuel pump (they said about $700) in it-when all this started not a thing was wrong with fuel pump, so why now?! I just feel they are trying to get us to spend all this money! I don't know what else to do! We actually bought a little Kia Sportage 2 weeks ago-got a good deal on it, but I hate we have spent all this
money on the rodeo! I hate to take a loss we really can't afford on it!
