2003 Diamante LS windows fogging up by brianc702

We have a 2003 Diamante LS and the windows have started fogging up. I've read a little about heater cores possibly being the culprit. Can someone give a definitive answer? We're trying to sell it (less than 40k miles) and I'd like to put this issue to bed. Thanks!

1993 Diamante Wag - 'no start' by bowfan

I've got a '93 waggy that hasn't run for a couple years, originally stopped when the 4th/OD clutches went out. Just never made time to work on it, but I've decided it needs to go. V6-3.0L
 
This weekened I jump started it and don't think it's getting fuel. The engine does turn over. If I spray ether into plenum I can get it to fire momentarily, so I believe it's got spark.
 
Disconnected the fuel line which runs from fuel filter at the front fuel rail and cranked, but don't see any fuel coming out. I'd like to jumper the fuel pump and make sure the pump is good and not clogged up. I've got a 92-96 factory service manual but it seems to deal with the dohc engines, and I can't correlate the pics it shows with my engine compartment.
 
I believe there is supposed to be a connector in the engine compartment that you can hook +12v to test the pump, but can't seem to find it.
 
On a possibly related note, the fuel gauge is registering empty, even though I've added 10 gallons of fuel to it. I've been trying to read up and think that there is a relay that may power both the fuel pump and fuel gauge, but again, I'm not sure where this would be located.
 
Does anyone have any pointers on location of the FP relay, FP test connection or good advice?
 
Thanks!!!

not quite that easy. The multiport Fuel Injection Relay is located behind the glove box, and while it very well could be the cause of your problem, it requires a series of tests with a voltmeter, and a diagram of the various pins on the relay. One wrong move and you fry the whole thing.
 
I would suggest that you take out a subscription to www.alldatadiy.com for your car as it has all the diagrams and test procedures you need. I think it's $29 bucks for everything.
 
Or if you can find a used relay on eBay you can try to fix it that way.
 
There is indeed a "Fuel Pump Drive Terminal" to which you can apply battery voltage but the diagrams to not locate it, just show a picture of it (that's useless!).
 
I think a scan tool can easily power the pump as well. The pump appears to be in the fuel tank.
 
That's all I got for you at this time.
