Chime associated with blinker?

From : david

Q: if you leave your blinker on for an extended period of time yes your chime will sound to let you know that its on. ive done it numerous times and after a while the chime will start. wondered what it was at first but turned the blinker off and it stopped.... aha! i have 97 grand caravan. -s on 6/18/05 106 am david wrote i exited the freeway the other day on a long gradual curve of an exit. i straightened out and stayed in my lane then noticed the blinker was still on. at the same time that i was reaching for the lever i heard a chime same as when the keys are in the ignition the door is open etc... i quickly looked at my overhead console and the instrument panel to see if there were any visabale indicators there wasnt... so im wondering if theres some sort of audible notification that the blinker has been on for an excessive length of time ram 2500 2005 cummins 4x4. thanks david... -- timpani! take your drums to brooklyn play the same volume youll be fine. -otto werner mueller on my piannissimo entrance in a juilliard orchestra rehearsal c. 1997 remove spamoff from email address to reply. .

hi allmy abs/brake light stays on.at first it would only be on awhile and when you turned off the engine and started it back up it would stay off. now it stays on.i also noticed the speedometer doesnt work untill you hit about 30 miles per hr.i took it to a shop and they used a hand held checker to test it. it shows 2 errors7271 ecu rom checksum error and 71 is ecv ram rod wright error. the guys didnt know what this means. anyone got any ideas thanks! .

the owners manual does have a way to disable it i dont have the manual in front of me but i recall that its a trick procedure. it took me nearly a dozen attempts. i spoke with a service tech and they have problems also but it can be done and still leave all other chimes intact. david... i exited the freeway the other day on a long gradual curve of an exit. i straightened out and stayed in my lane then noticed the blinker was still on. at the same time that i was reaching for the lever i heard a chime same as when the keys are in the ignition the door is open etc... i quickly looked at my overhead console and the instrument panel to see if there were any visabale indicators there wasnt... so im wondering if theres some sort of audible notification that the blinker has been on for an excessive length of time ram 2500 2005 cummins 4x4. thanks david... mine chimes when im not wearing my seat belt. drives me nut. free beer to anyone who can tell me how to successfully disable it. -- moparman---remove clothes to reply! --scud coordinates 32.61204 north 96.92993 west-- .

jmc nogroupsspam@nojodibody.homeus wrote turns out i shoulda paid attention to the normal octane level of uk petrol - just got back from a 6-day trip and turns out ive been putting 95 octane in my tank every time we take a trip. did you see my reply there are two ways that octane is measured and three ways that the result of this measurement can be expressed. in the us we express it in the average of the two measurements while continental europe and ill bet the uk express it as the higher of the two measurements. the odds are better than even that the 95 octane youre buying in the uk is about the same stuff as 89 octane in the us. matt roberds .

langerhans wrote jeff mayner wrote langerhans wrote snip what is the accelerator fly-by-wire throttle reset. since there is no physical connection like a cable from pedal to throttle i call it a fly-by-wire system. similar to the new aircraft which use electronic servo systems to control hydraulic valves instead of cables and pushrods. to do it to your truck with engine off turn key to first position. wait for idiot lights to extinguish. press pedal down to the floor then let it up. turn key back to off position. you just taught the pcm the limits of travel of your pedal. there are probably others here who are better equipped to explain the hows and whys. thanks. i had never heard of this. i am aware of the by wire and how it works well sorta but had never heard of the fix. .

i just finished a 9k+ trip to alaska and back hauling my 25 arctic fox 5th wheel with my 03 2500 ho 6sp. went as far north as coldfoot alaska diesel @ $3/gal. not one problem with the truck or fuel other than my upcomming cc bill. my question is about the alignment of the trailer axles on the fox. i did have two flats on it. it seems the rear axle has inner tire wear on one tire and outter wear on the other. seemed to be a cocked axle to me so underneath i crawled and measured the distance between the axles at the same point on both sides. the differance between the two measurements is 5/16. the trailer seems to track straight the wear on the front axles tires seem normal with 20k miles wear. it seems the springs are pinned to the axle mount so it wouldnt be as simple as loosening the axle from the springs and moving the axle along the spring. these are dexter axles with double eye leaf springs. now thinking about all the pivot points of the center hanger with the bracket shackle link and the spring i guess the axle distance floats depending on load. is that right is there any adjustment on this system next question is on the no-name shocks. one pissed its contents front left and with the hundreds of miles of dirt gravel and poor asphalt roads im suprised its only one. i want to replace them all. im looking for reccommendations for trailer shocks. fmb .
