Well its been really cold here the last couple of days.. so i havent been able to take a look at it yet, but the fuses are ok.. (at a glance). the wierd thing is that the stop lights work (same bulb).
But i will get in there with a volt meter hopefully today or tmrw and update.
Thanks for the input everyone!

Hey guys it's been awile since ive been here, But i havent had too many issues with the truck in some time.
But that has changed. Just the other day the taillights on my pathy decided they didnt want to come on any more. The brake lights still fire up, but no tail lights when the switch is on. Is this just a fuse issue, or do i have to start digging through the wiring to fix??
-
I have 3" wheel spacers on mine, and wheeled with them more than a few times. No problems as of yet.
-
Aint it great when you can "fix" a car with a hammer!!!
Bigger problems, bigger hammer!!! i wonder what weight of sledgehammer would be required for a tranny replacement... LOL
And it still seems to be running strong, so i wont be doing any starter changing until i really need to. Which will be soon probably, but if it aint broke (that bad), dont fix it (unless its just with a hammer )
-
Well the rain let up a little, and i got all ready to pull the damn thing out... when low and behold the hammer tapping got it goin. Three times in a row with no problem. I will definitely check all that you posted for me k9sar, but for now its off to the tire shop!!!!!! Thanks again for all the input guys, this site is awesome!!!
-
are you sure the other battery is FULLY charged?
pita
Yes... i just bought it to replace the other battery that i tried to charge, but wouldn't hold any voltage. So i guess that means yes, in a lot more words.
Is it a manual? If so just push the stupid thing and compression start it.Unfortunately it is an auto
-
Ok well like I said... it's raining like a muther fukker, so i will get to it tomorrow and let you guys know whats up. It seems like the starter is definitely the problem from what i read in the How to thread.
This is such a pain in the ass, all i wanted to do is take my truck to the tire shop so they could swap on my new BFG MT's, and now i have to get all greasy just to drive it a couple blocks. Thanks for all the info guys, i really appreciate it, and like i said before i will update after at stops raining.
-
..yes check your starter and see if you don't have one of the bolts broken which would make your starter crooked and jammed...Happen to me once...i put a new bolt on it...otherwise you can always bang it gently with a hammer...sometimes they jam... to start with !!
Ok well its pissing rain right now... so i will try giving it a "gentle" beating and see what happens. Never had to change a starter before, it can't be that difficult right?

starter is fawked
really? @!*%. This happened once before, a few years back... but it just fixed itself after a few minutes. Goddammit i hate fixing things. Could it maybe be a fusible link somewhere along the line???
-
No... i thought so at first, so i threw a new battery in and it just clicks louder.
-
Hey all... its been a real long time since i had a question about my pathy that i havent been able to read about and find the correct answer. My problem is now when i turn the Key, the engine doesn't turn, it just makes a bunch of really fast clicks, sounds like they are coming from the fuse panel, but i could be mistaken. I pulled the codes and they read 55-no malfunction. Maybe the starter??? I don't know... this is all very new to a truck that has always started just fine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
-
Definetly check your codes.... could be something as simple as a bad o2 sensor. Your describing similar symptoms that my truck was showing for a while. Turns out it was the o2 sensor. Check your codes firstly... it's easy and it will save you a ton of headaches.
-
No i don't still have the stock uca's-- I have the Rancho ones.... and my tie-rods seem to be fine, how long a job is it to replace my ball joints? is there any special tools i might need? And how long should it take? thanks for the input... its appreciated
-
Recently i noticed that my frond end sits like this- /---\ I know I need a new center link, but there has to be more to it. Possibly ball joints? Thanks
-
haha... well keep me posted and let me know if its possible.... Thanks bro
-
I like the thought of putting in another auto... just for labours sake. i like the price on yours... what's your location? Im in Calgary, Canada. let me know...
-
well... i still have to make sure that the tranny that i got a line on isn't burned..... (guy kinda likes to bag on his vehicles), and I have to figure whether or not it will be worth all the effort. Haven't got a lot of free time these days. I appreciate the feedback though, nice to know that it is possible.......
Just curious sammyb... what do want for your auto???? let me know
-
readin ya loud and clear big buddy

Hey all... been a while. i was wondering, how much work would it be to swap a manual tranny into my auto 91' xe? My trans wont shift into second or OD anymore, and i got a line on a donor truck... only prob is it's 5 speed. Anyone tried this?? If so, any major problems??? Hopefully this can work... cuz i luv my pathy......
-
hells ya mo fo!!!

I dunno, my pathy has a great turning radius as far as im concerned. I rarely have to back it up and try again in tight spots. Also, I can navigate parking lots almost as easily as my '01 civic... better actually, cuz with 6" of lift and 33's, I can see parking spots from a mile away
-
Don't worry, I think there are a lot of us out there who seem to be fixing our pathy's all the time. I feel like it's my full time job
I thoought about selling mine about 2 weeks ago, and after a lot of thought I decided that i don't need payments, and my insurance is only 70 bucks a month, so I kept it. I think that if i want to stop fixing it, i should stop wheelin it.......
but that's jus tthe stupidest thing i've ever come up with
-
That sticker is DEFINITLY making it's way onto my back window. I don't know why i like it so much... maybe im an idiot..... who cares, it's awesome.

My 91 has it, So illegal you should be laughing....
