Keyless Entry stopped working.

I've only got one fob. I thought the battery was dead so I changed the battery in the fob but it still will not lock / unlock the car. It is a 2010. I thought I had to re program it. I can get into programming mode but whenever I hit the lock or unlock button it will cycle the locks twice indicating...

VSS Wire

I installed a wireless Apple Carplay unit in my car and in order to use the GPS with the radio I have to tap into the VSS wire but I can't find any information other that I can get to it under the glove box.

I have the 2010 with the 1.8L.

Thank you for your help.

Bought this for my wife's birthday, for installation in her new '09 AWD Vibe, back in August. Finally finished the installation today...wasn't tough, I just have commitment issues.

I got the part #19205390 from Ebay but I can't find a DIY anywhere. I read that you have to take the alternator off ? Is there a DIY? Thanks

Changed Serpentine Belt on 2010 Vibe. Thought This would help

The 2010 vibe 1.8L doesn't have the tensioner like the other tutorials I saw. This is what I used to get it done. All I needed was a 14mm socket and a 12mm socket. The tensioner is the alternator. http://www.originalmechanic.com/2015/10/how-to-replace-serpentine-belt-on-18l.html The belt I used was ...

Re: replacing tires

No i'm using the factory steel rims. I remember reading that TPMS sensors should last around 5 years so I didn't know if people were changing the sensors every new set of tires or not. I didn't want to have to spend two days at the tire place if I didn't need ot.

Thanks

replacing tires

So I've got a 2010 base vibe and i'm planning on finally replacing the tires I have on it. Any thing I should do / worry about the TPMS sensors and stems ? It seems like they bolt on but i'm assuming i'd have to at least replace the stems?

Any help?

Thanks

Re: 2009 Aftermarket Radio Harness

I ended up not being able to move the wire, so I ended up using the loose red wire.

I tapped into the cigarette lighter by removing the cupholder, which then allowed the change tray to pop out.

I hope this helps.

Adding Cruise in 2009 Base Model

I'm looking at a Vibe with no cruise. I was doing some research and I saw that you can get just the stalk and install it while other ones say you'll need the harness also.

Anyone know for sure?

I did just get my 2010 stolen and, yes they did take the radio. To do it they removed the center trim and took the hazard button with it. I would still like the diagram or at least know which colors go left to right because I can't get it inspected without the hazards button working. Thanks for all ...

Hazard Lights Switch

Someone was kind enough to remove the radio out of my vibe and in the process ripped out the hazard button. Does anyone know how to wire it back up? It has four wires and I do not know how they need to go back into the switch. Thanks.

The 2.4L Engine

I had a 2010 1.8L and it got stolen so I was going to replace it with another Vibe and I wanted to see if there are any known issues or gotchas with the 2.4l and the 5 speed auto. That seems to be the only ones I can find at a decent price.

Any help would be appreciated.
