I took the car back to the dealer on 4/28 for the fifth time; they have replaced just about every module and relay in the car since they all are fried by the time I limp the car back to them with nothing electrical inside working.
 
After I threatened them with Lemon Law and called Volvo Customer Service, the mechanic was finally given permission by corporate to driving the car to and from work (50 miles each way). His quote was, " I was cruising along with the nav up listening to the radio, this XC is a really nice drive. Then, WHAM out of no where the car instantanously cut off and then came back up in a split second. It scared the beejesus out of me."
 
They are searching for wire diagrams, maybe now they will find the root cause or at give me a new car.

If I am in the wrong group I apologize. When I lock the doors the alarm sounds. It appears that the doors/trunk/gas cap locks. when I open the doors all components unlock and the alarm does not sound. I would like for the alarm system to operate properly but it is important for me to be able to lock the vehicle. Thank you

Need help with electrical... by kreuzer

Need help with my '99 SR5 4Runner. It's a V6/Auto. I'm trying to get my trailer lights to work and am not able to get the driver's side brake and/or turn single light to work on the trailer. Before I re-wired the trailer lights , I had the same problem with the trailer lights not working in the same way. All the lights/turn signals on my Runner work ok and when hooked up to my trailer both driver and passenger lights/turn signals work ok on the Runner. But, when I plug in the trailer, the driver's side part of the trailer doesn't work. The trailer package came with my Runner and I haven't used it until now - only owned my truck for about a year. Any suggestions on what to check and how to go about it? Thanks everyone.

I have an '01 montero LTD. The A/T temp light, brake light and battery lights are constantly lit. The turn signals do not work. I found a 10 amp fuse attached to the flashers burnt out. I replaced this fuse and it immediately blew again. Any ideas???

intermittent loss of power window function by sox_in_04

I have a power window on a 2001 Toyota minivan that will open but will only close about 1/3 of the way then stop working (unable to open or close). Then after about 30 minutes will close to about 2/3 of the way, and stop again. 30 minutes or so later, you can get the window fully closed.
Does this sound like the motor needs to be replaced, or a relay switch of some sort?

Got a 2001 Alero, ALL of the warning lights are on all the time, would be nice not to be seeing them, hard to know when something is really wrong!
Thanks

Q 45 cruise control by kskanna
May 29, 2006 (8:10 pm)
Reply
Hi, Of quite a few cars that I have had I love my 94 q the best. Just 2 things bugging me.
1. Cruise control: After I turn the main Cruise control switch the light in the instrument panel (near the tachometer) does not come on and the cruise never works. (the light on the switch itself comes on and changing the switch, fuses did not help)
2. Rear passenger door lock listens to the central lock control switch whenever it wants to! The remotes dont work anymore and the batteries are new and so are the remotes!
Scared to take it to infiniti. Am willing to spend money on it, but how much???
Hope someone can help.
Thanks
