Thank you all. Yes I am using LED's. Have a lot of them in use. Yes, polarity check. Yes, believe I have a bad (-) wire, measures full v when I ground to chassis.

I have an 06 base Vibe. My license plate bulbs burned out. I used my map light bulbs as I needed license plate illumination right now! Anyway, later I got bulbs and put them in my map light - no light. The map light previously did work, I turned them on to make sure the bulbs were good before I put ...

in forums.genvibe.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=9745 ragingfish said its a #192. I haven't replaced mine for a long time, but I remember that they just pull out. I had to use needlenose pliers to get a bad one out, and yes, I think I broke the bad bulb glass before I got it out. Just looked at mi...

Suggestion: Take off the motor. With it removed, plug it back in. Run the motor 180 degrees. This may bypass broken teeth. Add a "momentary contact push-button switch" inline. I just let mine hang loose inside the glove box. If you can, find a nice place to put it in the dash or an empty switch cove...

Resolution! Sorry to waste your time. :oops: I had 3 dead lock motors and apparently that was confusing the computer! I replaced both front locks & now have consistent NON-automatic operation. All is good for now even with one back door motor still dead. 8-) Thanks for the input. Really like the lit...

Did not lose any radio pre-sets. No one is around to disconnect the battery, out in the country. Post clamps are clean & tight. Just a few minutes ago, doors are already unlocked, got in, started and put it in "D" & the locks cycled to "lock & unlock". Drove the car, put in "P", turned it off, locks...

Just purchased a 2006 "base" Vibe. I did the power door lock "dance" to set mine to #2- "OFF" mode - no locking or unlocking. The problem is after about 2 or 3 drives the doors will be in a mode that every time the key is inserted or removed the locks go thru a lock & unlock cycle. I do the dance an...

I wish I thought of this BEFORE I replaced my bulbs - Don't unsolder the old bulbs! Just nip the wire legs next to the glass bulb body... Then you wont make a mess of the circuit board like I did! :oops: Just solder the new bulb legs to the old ones! So much neater, cleaner, and easier... Now to fin...

Got me another Vibe. An 06 & the radio lights were out. Found "joatman" on the forum, followed his EXCELLENT directions, now I have radio lights!!! Thank you so much!!! I did have a lot of trouble re-soldering the new bulbs, I have never been any good at soldering electronics :x . All 3 tested & lit...

I know this is a year late, but my 05 vibe does the same and I don't worry as I had the same issue with my 85 Saab after I replaced a caliper. The shims/spacers wouldn't ever seat tight enough not to fall out. The whole caliper unit would move and cause a clunk. I put 50,000 miles on the rebuilt cal...

sorry, the post got to the wrong person....

Glad your problem is fixed. My comment is be sure you check the heater/ac blower housing for rodent stored food or droppings. My limited experience with just 3 vibes, and ALL 3 had acorns stored in the blower box AND the engine air filter box!!!!! 2 of the vibes had been GARAGE kept!... cover all th...
