It's easy! Just take a part off your Vibe, and set it on the front. It is the picture CHALLENGE thread, after all.

i got the whole interior out of the rally vibe, does that count

dgekiere

That looks freakin' amazing. Any plans to paint the roll cage or are you going to leave it like that? And have you decided on the paint job for the rally Vibe yet? yup the roll cage will be painted, possibly a grey color. the cars paint hasn't been finalized yet, only that it will be a 2 tone since...

That's pretty cool, I've never seen this done to one of these, that's going to be sweet when you're finished. Do you have a weight goal in mind? i think minimum weight is around 3100 with driver and codrive. so with stock weight about 2750 and approx 400 lbs. of driver and codriver weight and some ...

well i finally got some pictures of the roll cage progress. he called the other day and said it would be done in about a week. here are the pics he sent... enjoy http://i858.photobucket.com/albums/ab144/dgekiere/2003%20rally%20vibe%20prodject/Racecraft_137.jpg http://i858.photobucket.com/albums/ab14...

dgekiere

yup its another resistor rip off item

dgekiere

sounds more like a battery issue to me, or a bad connection at the battery. i have seen a lot of corroted terminals on the vibe batteries and they have the same issues. i would try taking off the battery terminals and clean them and reinstall them first to see what happens.

good luck

dgekiere

first thing i would do is get the code pulled from the module and see what it is. it is almost imposible to guess whats wrong without the code. there might even be the posibility it was wrecked at one time and not fixed right.by the way welcome to genvibe

dgekiere

did you have the pcm recall done yet. my dads 2005 was shifting hard before the recal was done.

dgekiere

Made it to zeeland mi with no problems. Vibe pulled the vibe great. I was actually able to carry 6th gear at 70 the whole way. Got fuel on the way back and averaged 22 mpg. Its better than pulling it with my buddys truck and getting 15 mpg. Now just have to wait for it to get done.

great!!! thanks alot

dgekiere

here is gm'x wire diagram for a/c system. there looks like there is no relay for the compressor only power from the module. so if no power is at compressor then one of the input for the module is not allowing the module to power the compressor.
