About my GWM bakkie doesn't start but the lights are on

OK, more information please. What year is this Bakkie? What engine is in it? What Exactly does it do when you try to start it? Nothing at all at the key, just a 'Clunk' or a very lazy turn over suggests a flat or weak battery. Batteries do get old and weak especially if they're over 5 years old or on a bigger size engine. Try putting it on charge overnight and see if that helps. Does it just spin and not try to start? This could be a 'No Spark' issue. Does it turn over, try to start then immediately stall? This might be a fuel supply problem. Dash lights only use a small amount of voltage so they are often the last thing to stop working.

2003 Ford Taurus after market stereo installation

Adding aftermarket radios seldom works like you expect because the radio head and amplifier are connected to, and monitored by the BCM. Safety warnings and door chimes are played by the BCM via the radio system. It was all designed as a seamless unit on a computer network. Phone Crutchfield, they do all the harness kits and will give you good free advice. Or go to a car audio installer, as they have the programming equipment.https://www.google.com/search?q=2003+ford+taurus+wiring+kit+for+the+amplifier..

Getting code C0292 lost communication with Engine Control System any ideas on a fix! 2004 GMC Yukon Denali XL

The C0292 code in your 2004 GMC Yukon Denali XL indicates a communication issue between the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) and the Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM). Here are some steps to diagnose and potentially fix the problem: Check Ground Connections: Inspect the ground connections related to the PCM and EBCM. Follow the ECM ground and ABS module ground. Check the ground on the firewall (driver's side) and the frame rail under the driver's seat. Also, verify the engine ground on the driver's side. Inspect Wiring and Connectors: Visually examine the wiring harness and connectors associated with the EBCM. Look for any signs of damage, such as broken wires or corroded pins. Ensure that the connector pins are not bent or pushed out. Pay attention to any loose or poor electrical connections. Consider the Tune: If you've recently modified the vehicle's tuning, consider reverting to a different tune. Sometimes, a specific tune can cause communication issues. If you suspect the tune, contact the tuner for further guidance1. Professional Diagnosis: If the above steps don't resolve the issue, it's advisable to seek professional help. A qualified mechanic can perform a thorough diagnosis using specialized tools. Keep in mind that diagnostic costs typically range from $75 to $150 per hour.

Cooling fan relay 98 plymouth voyager

If you're experiencing issues with the cooling fan relay in your 1998 Plymouth Voyager, there could be several reasons behind it. The cooling fan relay is responsible for controlling the operation of the cooling fan, which helps regulate the engine temperature by dissipating heat. Here are some common reasons why the cooling fan relay might be causing problems:
  1. Relay Failure: Over time, relays can wear out or become damaged due to electrical faults or excessive heat. If the cooling fan relay has failed, it may not properly engage the cooling fan when needed, leading to overheating.
  2. Electrical Issues: Faulty wiring or connections can disrupt the flow of electricity to the cooling fan relay, preventing it from functioning correctly. Inspect the wiring harness and connections for any signs of damage or corrosion.
  3. Temperature Sensor Malfunction: The cooling fan relay is often triggered by signals from the engine's temperature sensor. If the sensor is faulty or sending incorrect signals, it may not activate the cooling fan relay when necessary.
  4. Faulty Cooling Fan Motor: If the cooling fan motor itself is defective or worn out, it may not respond to signals from the relay, even if the relay is functioning correctly. Check the cooling fan motor for any signs of damage or wear.
  5. Blown Fuse: In some cases, a blown fuse can cause the cooling fan relay to malfunction. Check the fuse box for any blown fuses related to the cooling fan system and replace them if necessary.
To diagnose the exact cause of the issue, you may need to perform some electrical tests or consult a mechanic with experience in automotive electrical systems. They can use diagnostic tools to pinpoint the problem and recommend the appropriate repairs or replacements.

I have a 2002 Dodge Durango 4.7 l with the coil pack spark plugs but I'm not getting spark what do I do

Start with the silly, obvious things first. Check the coils packs are the correct ones and are seated correctly. Check the wiring connectors are also seated correctly. Have you checked for spark on all of the coils? This will test to see if it is the coils themselves or further back in the ignition system. Have you had the vehicle scanned for OBD trouble codes? This will help find out if it's a sensor causing the issue. Next you need to check for voltage going to the coil packs. Check them all to make sure it isn't just one or two causing the issue. After this I would suggest getting a good Auto electrician to look at it as it could be an issue inside the vehicle's electronics.

2011 Hyundai Sonata. It was stolen. When I got it back it wouldn't crank? Anyone have any clue what the problem may be? They drove the car completely out of gas so I got gas. Still no luck.

Question edited for clarity. Question moved to model category. 'wouldn't crank' means it doesn't turn over, you turn the key and nothing happens, no click, no starter, the engine doesn't move. or Do you means it does crank and turn over but it doesn't fire or start? If it ran out of fuel it will have burnt out the fuel pump. The gas provides cooling and lubrication for the pump and they burn themselves out in less than 5 minutes. The people that took it will have been trying to start it when it stopped. Get a garage to check fuel pump pressure. ..
