Replying to: omarr (Apr 29, 2009 5:06 am) As I understand the "code thing", it requires the engine to report a problem code. I may be no expert, but I'm pretty sure if the car's computer detected a severe problem and reported such an error code, the "check engine" light would come on, which hasn't happened, or I would be happy to look at the error code.   I had my friend's boyfriend check out the cooling system and it ended up being an 8 dollar fix. Guess that checklist thing would've worked after all if the man at the auto place had actually listened to me. I saved $92. I'm also moderately sure that there aren't 10,000 different things that could go wrong with the cooling system.   Pardon me if I don't fully believe you when you imply that the wheel will lock up if I keep driving on a bad CV joint when I consider the rest of your post, but I'm not going to spend money if it is unnecessary. I was ASKING if it was unnecessary. I define necessary to be life threatening, car totaling, or cost me a great deal more if I wait. If someone who doesn't belong to the Internet Hate Machine and actually read my question would enlighten me as to what can happen if someone were to drive on a bad CV joint, I would truly appreciate it.   I'm pretty sure most people who ask questions here are looking to save money or they would just hand the car over to a mechanic and say "have at it". I'm very sorry if my attempting to not waste my money horribly offends you. Replies to this message: elroy5 (Apr 29, 2009 2:23 pm) garie (Apr 29, 2009 6:29 pm)

Replying to: garie (Apr 29, 2009 8:02 am) I don't think the CV joint breaking would lock the wheel, but when it does break, you will not be going any further toward your destination. The clicking noise is a warning, and you are driving on borrowed time. It could last a year, or it could snap tomorrow. Replies to this message: garie (Apr 29, 2009 6:29 pm)

Replying to: tallman1 (Apr 28, 2009 8:11 pm) Neither of my fuse boxes match the diagrams on them, so I had to check every fuse. They appeared OK. Can a fuse appear OK but still be blown? Replies to this message: Mr_Shiftright (Apr 29, 2009 5:45 pm)

Replying to: aarcee (Apr 29, 2009 5:02 pm) Yes it can appear okay and still be bad. Best to check them with a continuity tester (ohmmeter)

#1399 of 1552 1996 LX 4-Door Blinkers by thegraduate May 17, 2009 (12:07 pm)
Hey all, quick question.   I have a '96 LX 4-cyl 4-door with 193k miles on it. Lately, I've noticed that my blinkers will hesitate from the time I push down the stalk to the time they start flashing. It is worse when temps are cooler, and when the car hasn't been driven for the day. As time goes on, the hesitation goes away.   I'll move to signal a turn, nothing will happen for about one second, then I hear the click but at double-time speed (no flashing on the instrument panel or outside) much like when a bulb is out, then it will pick up and blink like normal. Today was the longest time-period with no blinking (over 5 seconds) and it nearly got me rear-ended; I had to go to the next block and double back to make my turn.   Any thoughts or suggestions on what the problem could be? Any/all replies are most appreciated!   Thanks!   TheGraduate   PS: No bulbs are out, and the hazard flashers work immediately when you press the button.   Replies to this message: mrbill1957 (May 17, 2009 12:58 pm) thegraduate (May 17, 2009 1:29 pm) corkscrew (May 18, 2009 4:47 am) and 9 more...
