My backup lights go on when the brake pedal is depressed, but not when the A/T is in R.
To make things worse, whenever have some time to look at it, the backup lights won't go on at all!
HAs anyone reloved this kind of problem. I woiuld appreciate it, would stop everyone from bringing it to my attention at red lights!

You most likely need a new window regulator or possibly the drive motor & gears. The only way to know for sure is to take the door panel off and look into it. I would think the regulator is the most likely problem, it usually is on small cars since it's small and somewhat weak. If you can get the door panel off you may be able to push on the bottom of the window and get it to move up when operating the switch. If you do remember there's moving parts in there.
I was at my house in LHC last weekend. I think Saturday was the busiest non-holiday weekend on the lake I've can remember. We went out but came in after a few hours. It was just to rough with all the boat traffic.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have pulled the center console off and it looks like all the connections are good. but I am having a problem finding the fuse panel .
Its not where the owners manual says it should be. I realize its not a fuse issue but I should know where it is for future reference.
It sounds like I should take it to a shop here in LHC. My auto repair skills are not up to par! Do you have any suggestions?
Small world hu? I work on the Island. Been living here almost 5 years! Fun town!!!
Thanks for your help....Can we keep in touch, for future advice?

The only place out there I have ever had any work done is at Brake Masters over next to Scotty's Broasted Chicken on El Camino Way. They repaired the A/C on the old Suburban I used to keep out there. That was some time ago though. This type of power window is the same as most other cars though so I don't think you need a special shop.
I think the closest Mazda dealer is Yuma or Las Vegas.
I had a trailer at Islander for years before building a house in 1998. Things sure have changed out there. I don't think they will be happy until it's just like Southern California. Early fall and early spring are still the best times out there.
Feel free to ask for help anytime.

1997 Chevrolet Silverado by boognishlovin

I've got a problem with the radio resetting itself in my truck. It will be fine for a few days and then reset itself when I start it up. Then the clock is set to 1:00 and all my presets are gone. I don't know if it is a interuption when I turn the truck off or it is when I start it. I can't find any consistancy so far, I've tried driving with the lights on all the time to use more power in case it's a low battery or alternator, but it still is random. It's not going to kill me but I like to keep it running nice so any help would be appreciated. Thanx.

Hyundia Accent heater blower problem by gmoberg

I am unable to locate the "interior relay block" for my 1995 Hyundai Accent Hatchback. Fuses, resistor and the blower motor itself check OK.
Only thing left is the blower relay and I am unable to locate it.

92 toyota pick-up v6 power and mileage loss by althepal30
Sep 20, 2006 (4:24 pm)

Hello fellow toyota lovers/haters. My 92 4x4 v6 pick-up hass poor mileage and low power. i believe it is the smaller of the v6's but it should have more power than it has. When i am accelerating in any gear, i have low power and when i reach about 2700 rpm, my power suddenly increases by about 30% like a switch being turned on, this does not always occur but is obvious when it does, especially in 1st gear.There are no codes, i have replaced the throttle position sensor and tested the mass air box-serviceable. I have considered that the cold start mechanism is faulty. I sure would appreciate any help on this topic. Thanks for reading my question. Al
