under dash behind glove box

Hello. Twist the headlamp socket counterclockwise (to the left) to remove it from the headlamp lens; clockwise to install. The headlamp 'capsule' 'pushes in' 'pulls out' socket. It's held in the socket with a 'lift up' clasp. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

Call any dealership, they have to tell you truthfully if so

put park brake on, turn ignition key to on position (no start) turn parklights off and on 4 times quickly (horn should sound twice). If you have or can get a TPMS activation reset tool great. Starting at drivers front, then passenger front, then passenger rear, then drivers rear. if you do not have a reset tool then you can try following method. Take valve caps off of all tires, start at drivers front tire (front left) let out 2 to 3 psi of air, about 5 seconds (TPS will detect this) wait about 10 to 15 seconds for horn to sound proceed to passenger front (front right) and repeat process, proceed to passenger rear and repeat process, proceed to drivers rear and repeat process. If horn does not sound than you will have to turn ignition key off and start over. You may have to re-inflate tires, it took me 2 days of @#$&^# around to get this method to work first time. God help you if a sensor is bad or missing.

Black smoke is usually unburnt fuel. I would check the lambda sensors in the exhaust.

Other possibilities:

• Repairing or replacing the wiring connection to the camshaft sensor or the OCV
• The oil control valve (OCV) has a restriction in the OCV filter
• The engine may need to be decarbonized after repairs are made (seafoam might not be enough)

I didn’t read all the way through. It sounds like you understand how a relay works. Are you getting a signal for the coil side of the relay? Should one from the ECM.

I got this free Pdf manual from reliable-store for free and I don't think Ive visited a mechanic or fixya for help for more than 3-4 times out of the 20 times I fixed the chipper in these 4 years

Usually a problem in the power steering system will cause that. If there is an issue in the system, The ps pump will put an excessive load on the engine, causing it to stall.

I would next go under the truck at the rear and visually check the bundle of wires there. The yellow and green will be the signals...check each with a test light. The white will be the ground. The brown will be the tail and brake...test each with the test light. If you cant find the power on each go toward the front end of the truck checking. If you have a trailor hitch wire test the plug. Sometimes the plug shorts. This is some of the problem areas. Sometimes it is real nasty finding the problem.

H there, from what i get.... When trouble code P0496 is set, it means that there is an issue with the purge flow in the EVAP system. also The EVAP system is a closed system that captures fuel tank vapors and prevents them from escaping into the atmosphere. When your engine light comes on because of a weakness or failure in this system, you most likely won't notice the car driving any differently Id suggest you see a mechanic and see if its safe to just reset the system or if the issue needs to be addressed but according to what I'm reading its more of an environmental hazard than anything not really any harm to you or the car. good luck To be sure and find exactly what to do consult and expert The EVAP system is a closed system that captures fuel tank vapors and prevents them from escaping into the atmosphere. When your engine light comes on because of a weakness or failure in this system, you most likely won't notice the car driving any differently

Security Lock ? What do you mean ? Anti-theft - car an padlock symbol or SECURITY light lit on instrument cluster ? If one of of these not you can do , need to take it to a qualified repair shop.
