#857 of 864 Fan running by wco81 Feb 19, 2009 (11:17 pm)
Have a 2007 EX Sedan, about 7000 miles on it.   It's been running fine for the over 2 years I've had it. Short commute.   I've been running the heat more than usual (Northern Calif. winters are usually mild).   I notice when I have the fan on the ventilation system slightly up and the temperature set to a couple of bars into the red portion of the dial, the cooling fan (not the ventilation fan) always runs when I start the car.   It goes on and off all the time but every time I start, whether from a cold start in the morning or later after it's been warmed up, that fan is running.   Not all the time but on and off.   Seems odd that using the heater would cause this fan, which seems to be for cooling down the engine, would run.   Anyone else observed this?   Is it something I should have checked out?

#858 of 864 MIL Back again.. by colleena Mar 08, 2009 (8:55 pm)
I posted awhile back about my '96 Civic Ex that was having what appeared to be a MAP sensor issue. The new part seemed to do the trick for the past few months, but unfortunately the MIL is back on again and the car is stalling like before. I have not had the chance to get the codes read again yet, but in the meantime is there anything else that you can suggest as a possible issue?   Thanks!

#860 of 864 Fuel Door Cable by heart2 Mar 31, 2009 (7:21 am)
Have a 2005 2Dr. and release for fuel door does not work. Have to release it each time from trunk. Is this difficult to repair myself? Any links to instructions or parts?

#862 of 864 Re: Fan running [wco81] by bearcrkrd Apr 15, 2009 (4:43 pm)
Replying to: wco81 (Feb 19, 2009 11:17 pm) I have an '08 LX Sedan. If it's running and I turn on the heater fan, a fan instantly comes on in the engine compartment. If the heater is left on when I tun off the car, when I start it, that fan or motor in the engine bay is on, too. I understand it is the same little belt/motor or whatever the heck it is, that runs the air conditioner. I haven't got out and poped the hood and looked when it's running, but it does kinda sound like the fans that blow on the radiator when you idle for a long time, or in hot weather. I'll try to remember to check that out next time I visit a friend when it's sunny! It is normal, I'm 99.99% sure.
#863 of 864 Oh those power windows... by colleena Jul 28, 2009 (1:55 pm)
During a particularly hot spell I left the two back power windows cracked about 2 inches. Unfortunately for me, my '96 Civic window regulator decided to kick the can and now I can't get the windows back up. Is there a way to manually raise the windows, at least temporarily, until I can get the problem fixed properly? Replies to this message: pat (Jul 30, 2009 1:18 am)

Replying to: colleena (Jul 28, 2009 1:55 pm) I don't know if this would work for your car, but I had a window regulator go out on my Acura TL. I was able to pull the window up with one hand on each side of it while standing outside the car and it stayed up until I could get it fixed.   Hope this helps!
