Replying to: maxxind (Jun 18, 2006 3:40 pm) Thank you for the help. I'm in my 60's so I will look for a set of ramps that will work with my MAXX. Just a lot easier and more comfortable, and I still know the job will be done right. Peter
#177 of 245 Tail and brake lights '98 Malibu by clay94 Jun 22, 2006 (5:59 pm)
Brake lights weren't working on either side (just the center light), but found that the parking lights work on the passenger side. Checked brake fuses, no problem. Disassembled the rear light assembly, two bad bulbs in the left one, two good ones in the right one. Tried the good bulbs in the left assembly, no luck for parking or brake. Before I did all this the backing and blinker worked on the left, now they don't. Will check the swith on the brake pedal tonight, but still need to get the blinker and backing lights working.

Replying to: clay94 (Jun 22, 2006 5:59 pm) If your center high-mounted stop lamp (CHMSL) works then the problem with the brake lights likely isn't with the stop lamp switch because that switch feeds all those lamps.   Do the turn and back-up lamps work on the right side (just the brake lamp didn't work)? You might want to try just temporarily plugging right lamp into left connector and visa versa and see what problems move with the lamp assembly. The turn and back-up functions will be reversed but you can still check all functions. Replies to this message: clay94 (Jun 23, 2006 11:11 am) e2helper (Jun 23, 2006 1:09 pm)

Replying to: e2helper (Jun 23, 2006 3:18 am) You're right, the brake switch works just fine, a bit of a pain to get to though.   Yes,the turn and back-up lamps work on the right side, and now the brake lamp does as well, and I don't know why that works now. I noticed that the licence plate lamp wiring runs right along with the driver-side tail lamp wiring, and the licence plate bulb does not work either. Does that provide more of a clue? Could it be something to do with where the wiring comes out the back of the fuse panel?   I will switch the assemblies this evening and see what that shows. I thought of doing that, but wasn't sure if they were interchangable like that.   Thanks for the tips. Replies to this message: e2helper (Jun 23, 2006 1:09 pm)

Replying to: clay94 (Jun 23, 2006 11:11 am) OK - did you say that the tail lamps on right side are working now also?? Basically the problem is only with the left lamp (where nothing is working) and the licence lamp?   The stop lamp on right side may have started working again because you played with the bulbs.

#183 of 245 Tire pressure by lcw1 Jun 26, 2006 (6:10 am)
Can some one tell me the tire pressure front and rear for the bridgestone tires on a 2005 Maxx? I purchased my car used but the tire label was removed. Thanks.

Replying to: lcw1 (Jun 26, 2006 6:10 am) 30 lbs psi front and rear, check on a monthly basis and inflate if required, my bridgestones would lose approx: 3 lbs per month! Replies to this message: csandste (Jun 26, 2006 8:20 pm)
