SOURCE: finding the thermostat in a 1987 suzuki swift

Hi again,

Pls allow me to correct the use of the term "thermostat". The thermostat is a temperature sensitive mechanical switch/valve that prevents water flow below a prescribed temperature. It is normally located inside a catch basin like receptacle where the upper radiator hose enters going into the engine. Soon as the engine reaches heats up and over operating temperature, this valve opens allowing the water inside the engine to flow towards the radiator to be cooled. In tropical regions and to prevent overheating, some mechanics have been known to remove this mechanical thermostat to allow constant coolant flow and therefore not restrict the cooling system in anyway.

Your concern is that the fan is not turning; the radiator fan is controlled/switched by a thermal switch. This switch electrically provides the negative flow of the power from the fan. Often, the switch would be located somewhere plugged/screwed into the radiator. The idea is that the switch will monitor the coolant temperature inside the radiator and upon reaching a prescribed temp switches on the fan. Some mechanics have been known to:
1. wire a manual override wherein the driver could switch on the fan even if the coolant has not reached the prescribed temperature;
2. there are some who have modified the switch system by installing a similar thermal fan switch but with a lower temperature threshold;
3. still others have simply bypassed the switch and wired the fan in such a way as that the fan turns soon as the key is turned in the ignition.

Additional ideas (some have reported positive results with) that could be tried to help minimize if not prevent overheating:
a. removing the pain of the entire radiator;
b. switched to Synthetic Oil for the engine;
c. adding " Water Wetter" or a "A Heat fighter kit" or liquid additive that help radiator work better;
d. replace the stock fan with higher RPM, more blades, bigger after market model.

SOURCE: Removing interior door trim '93 suzuki swift

Assume you have been able to remove window winder.
The surround of the the door handle (interior) is clip on at four points. Tabs are about an inch in from each corner and slide over a plastic nub to lock in place. . Start at top right corner. Get a small flat blade screwdriver with blade horizontal and gently - repeat gently, prise tab upwards while applying gentle pressure away from door and pushing slightly upwards. Tab should just slide off nub holing it in place. Do same for other side on top tab. Gently wriggle downwards so bottom tabs disengage. Installation is reverse.

SOURCE: why does the malfunction indicator light and how

There are many reasons why this light comes on, you will need to have the computer scanned for codes, these codes will tell you what the problem is and with a little testing you can repair it, many auto parts store will scan it at no charge for you, just get a printout with the codes if you need more help just let me know what the codes are they will have letters and numbers for example code could be po300, hope this helps.

Leak in boot of Suzuki swift.. Hole where boot lid comes down

That's the air vent. If you look carefully water should be coming from the plastic frame that holds the vent with rubber flap. Just make the frame leakproof with mseal or some other compound. Question was asked 2 years before but might be helpful for others. I had the same problem and this how I fixed it.
