My airbag light started flashing yesterday.
When I first bought the car it happened too.
It would flash 6 times, stop, flash 6 more times stop....... it would do about 3 or 4 sequences of six flashes and stop.
The first time it happened was a few days after I bought my car, in like
August 2001 it happened for a few days, stopped and it never happened since then. Until yesterday, when the same damn thing happened once in the morning and once later on in the day. Same ****, 3-4 sequences of six flashes. It hasn't happened today so far. but I haven't driven that far.
Any ideas or suggestions??
Next we have my windshield washer pump.
For the last few months, when I would pull the lever it would spray like normal and then steadily get weaker. A few weeks ago, it stopped working completely.
I figured at first the connections could have been loose and/or dirty so I pulled the inner fender ****, unplugged the pump and cleaned the terminals both on the plug and on the pump itself, goddam there was alot of **** in there. I plugged it back in, nothing. The wipers would still work when I pulled the lever so I figured the pump was ****ed. JUst for the **** of it I got some wires and ran power from the battery straight to the pump, nothing. Reinforcing my theory that the pump was the most likely culprit. I put everything back together and was planning on getting a new pump during the week. One day on the way to work, without thinking I pulled the lever, lo and behold the pump worked. and it worked good too, I kept it spraying for a good 10-15 seconds and it was still pumping as strong as ever. When it was going downhill before it would start to get weak after a few seconds.
So its been a few days since I've used used the thing, but the last couple times I used it the same **** was happening again, the stream would get weak after a few seconds.......... again, making me think that the pump is the problem.
Any comments??
