Well the fuse was fine. What should I check next?

Vibe Rater

Excellent posts all. I got it now. Hopefully I don't have to change a washer pump, but if I do, there's a great pictorial on this board. Thanks everyone.

Vibe Rater

I'll check again. Thanks.

Vibe Rater

I need to check the fuse for the front washer sprayer. The manual says the washer fuse is in the interior fuse block. Under the instrument panel on the driver's side. I looked there and could not find it. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Vibe Rater

Looks like I may need to do this.

Vibe Rater

Alright then. The bulb is rare indeed. Canadian Tire has never seen it before, can't get it. They claim to have the biggest selection anywhere. The GM Pontiac dealer doesn't have them, not even sure if they can even order it. Said it would be very expensive - about 15 bones a bulb - if they can get ...

Vibe Rater

No no! I'll rip mine apart and let everyone know. Just wondering that if anyone had already done this and knew what bulb is in there. No problem, just trying to save myself driving to the store with my dash apart. Thanks folks.

Vibe Rater

Nobody knows what bulb is in there?

Vibe Rater

Vibe Rater

Anyone know what bulb goes in there so I can purchase it before I take the old one out to look at it? Thanks.

Vibe Rater

That is quite helpfull, thanks. Gives me an idea how to get to it and I'll be able to figure it out once I start pulling parts off. BTW, anyone know what bulb goes in there so I can purchase it before I take the old one out to look at it? Thanks.

Vibe Rater

Where can I get a left rear seatbelt for the vibe (03)? My dog ate it. Used would be fine. Any links? Thanks.

Vibe Rater

How much of a job is it to replace the HVAC backlight. One of the 2 bulbs is burned out. Can someone provide a step by step? Thanks.

True that.Get some Michellin Hydroedge

Recording industry loses file-swapping appealLast Updated Thu, 19 May 2005 16:14:38 EDT TORONTO - The recording industry has failed again in its attempt to force internet service providers to reveal the names of file-sharers but it may be able to try again. In a unanimous decision Thursday, the Fede...

Nice of you to offer Simon. I'll start calling around here to get prices, and if it's cheaper to pay the postage on yours. I'll take you up on that offer. Love this place.

Excellent. Thanks

Review of the Matrix in the National Post

Vibe Rater

The 1.8-litre engine begs to be revved to within a whisker of its eyebrow-raising 9,000-rpm redline. The need for the elevated redline is down to the variable valve lift. At low speeds, the intake valves follow a cam profile that is designed to maximize low-end pull. Above 6,000 rpm, which is where ...

Vibe Rater

Yeah, but is there a nut or metal bracket behind the bumper to thread into, or does it just thread in the plastic? All I can see through the enlarged hole in the plastic is styrofoam. Anyone had their front facia off and seen what is behind it? Thanks.

Vibe Rater

Can anyone tell me what exactly holds on the front license plate bracket to the front bumper? The bracket is screwed to the bumper and then the license plate is bolted to the bracket. I recently had mine ripped off the bumper by a crazy pizza delivery guy in a snowstorm. His van was going way to fas...

How often does some assmunch flick a (removed) out his window and it, or the sparks bounce up on your hood. Flicking is a classless, selfish, bonehead, stinking greaseball act.

I can tell you that factory installed radios have to be 'initialized', or they don't work. If it was me, I would take the vehicle to a reputable aftermarket stereo shoppe and ask them if they can help you. They must know how to install new radios in the newer models with theft lock, cuz if they didn...

Well, by February, I wouldn't bother putting on snows till next year. Youy definitely will need them before december next winter.As for rust proofing, DO NOT waste your time or money on anything but KROWN rust control. No, I don't own the company, but I have a 10 year old Nissan pickup that has been...

Vibe Rater

Anybody wanna buy em'?

Vibe Rater

Winter tires are a huge business opportunity around here. All tire shops and large stores actively market winter tires. The tires i bought for the Vibe would be less than a hundred bucks each in America.

Vibe Rater

I ended up buying a set of 16" Hercules Polar Trax (made by Cooper). They're really good in snow, ok on ice, but not as tacky as Blizzaks or Michelins.

Vibe Rater

Damn, they didn't fit

Vibe Rater

BTW, the wheels are the Miglia 1000 Action Sport.

Vibe Rater

i have no idea which model and year the lexus was. i just assumed lexus is a toyota and so is the vibe, so they would fit. looks like i figured wrong. i'm going to the tire shop today to have snows put on, so i'll ask them to try to bolt on one of the rims. i'll let ya know. where did you get the in...

Vibe Rater

Does anyone know if a set of aftermarket 16" aluminum wheels that came off a Lexus will fit on the Vibe (base)?

Vibe Rater

Carefull, this guy has some nasty feedback

Vibe Rater

I went into Costco and inquired about buying a set of Michelin winter tires. I asked for 15" tires and get this, they would NOT sell them too me. They said the book calls for 16" tires, so they would not sell me 15's. Business must be very good at Costco these days.

DO NOT undercoat your car. Use Krown.

Yes I did. I wasn't expecting that at all, but the service guy called with good news and bad news. He said the bad news is we didn't change your oil. The good news is you're getting a new engine. 3 or 4 days with a nice loaner car, I get my truck back with a spanking new engine.

Vibe Rater

Goo Gone?

Vibe Rater

Yes, recalls are always well publicized and comminicated to the owners. Its TSB's that you have to dig for. For example, my Nissan truck was in for an oil change a few years back, and I inquired about TSB's for engine tick. There was an outstanding TSB to REPLACE the engine in my truck. If I hadn't ...

It all sounds very convenient that his parents said he just moved out a week ago and just started doing crack again a week ago. To your 'friend' who violated your life, in case he is reading this forum, you are a piece of garbage, human filth. Have a nice day.

Just some quick suggestions from an expert on squeaks and rattles.Often, they aren't coming from where they sound like they're coming from. That's why they are so difficult to diagnose. Someone else sitting in the car, in a different location than you (the driver), may not hear it at all or hear it ...

Vibe Rater

Waste of money. The radiator that comes with the car should be more than sufficient, for any climate. They are tested to death. The Vibe is built and tested in Calyfornia. Save your money and buy a chocolate bar instead.

Rented 'The Singing Detective' starring Robert Downey jr, last night. Very highly recommended. Downey is absolutelt brilliant in it. He does some crooning in it too. The title sounds goofy, but don't let that fool you. It's a great show. Saw F 911 last week (yawn). Moore is a *******. Anyone who wat...
