Hi everyone, I've been a vibe owner for three years now. I've always been a big audio nut in my town for years beyond my vibe! I change stereo systems out of my car every 6 months when I get bored with the current setup, and I have had predominately Pheonix Gold, Audiobahn, Lanzar, Kicker, and just ...

Also, can anyone tell me why my tweeters aren't working with my new headunit?

Hi all.I have a nice system set up and need to perform the big three upgrade on my 03 vibe base moon and tune car here's what I got:Pioneer avh p4200 DVD w/ iPod cable2 jl audio 13.5 inch w3 v3 2 ohm subs1 jl audio slash 1000.1 v1 ampSealed enclosure box built to jl's specs 4 guage wire running to o...

Don't know why but I can't post a pic from my iPhone 4

Here is the pic of the headunit

the engine had a 90 day warranty on it...but it's been past 90 days now...the mechanic was a retired GM mechanic that offered to do it for 200 bucks...his son works for my mom... I know what you're thinking, but I don't have the money to take it to a Pontiac garage.

yeah...pulled the negative wire from the battery...that does it, right? if not, i'm sure auto zone can do it for me...but just for extra info...go to my other topic I have titled "I've just about had it with this car..." and listen to my issues...maybe you can help me with that too...

wow...very, VERY good info...that I didn't want to hear lol...the engine I have is a 1.8 DOHC and I have the moon and tunes package car. I will most definitely go and get all three of those tests done as soon as possible...do you know how much each one of those tests will run me?

i have an 03 vibe with the same problem with my pioneer headunit...is there a tan wire with mine? I don't recall there being one...

Hi all...I installed a system in my car a few months back...a Pioneer AVHP4200, with all new pioneer 6.5 inch speakers in all doors, 2 audiobahn aw1000q 10inch subs and a pioneer gm5300t amp...honestly it all sounds real nice, especially for 10's...it knocks loud and surpises everyone who hears it.....

well, I went to autozone yesterday for ANOTHER code readout, CEL goes on for a few days, then goes off for a few days...P0420...so I'm thinking bad cat...but as I said before, I changed the cat LAST summer...and about the smoke/head gasket connection...I hope it's not true...but last time I had head...

i threw the 420 code also...but I just replaced the damn cat with an OEM one last summer!!! Didn't replace the o2 sensors though...just replaced the top sensor yesterday and cleaned the MAF sensor, but still showing the code...

Okay...yesterday I replaced the top O2 sensor behind the engine, and cleaned the mass air flow sensor with the recommended spray fluid...when I did this I had to take off the neg. battery terminal, and of course the engine light went out...took it for a test drive on the highway and up the mountains...

It worked! I can't believe I did that...I was wondering though if there was a way I could hook up both the L and the H together...when I got the horns, they were connected with a Y wire, clips like the Vibes on each of them, but the wire that runs down to wherever that wire goes was severed without ...

damn...you're right! I DID only hook up the wires and let it hang, then tested the horn with no sound...DUH!!! I'm going to do it the right way this time now...feel so stupid...I'll let you know how it goes

Hi...very simple instructions...now I have a 2003 vibe base...and I went to the junkyard and got a horn from a 2003 toyota camry...it had two horns instead of one: one labeled L and one labeled H...I hooked up both individually to the wiring harness from the old horn and neither worked at all...can ...

I'm going to list all my problems and following repairs in order from purchase to current. I think this is the most detailed I've put the problems into words. Here goes:Jan. 10: Probem - Temp goes to max, heater doesn't work. Solution - take to used dealership to have head resurfaced. May 10: Proble...

if it is a rear main seal leak...is it a costly repair? Or is it something I can get fixed for relatively cheap? About the white smoke issue, that happens very intermittently...last time was two weeks ago after I parked the car at an incline that had my passenger side elevated a tad bit. When it doe...

also, I replaced the oil pan last month...pulled too close to a railroad tie and bent the bolt inwards...and it's dry all around the pan...now since the engine got replaced, some items came up missing after the replacement such as: the heat shield that goes over the top O2 sensor, and the plastic co...

well, the old registration card was in the car...and I googled their phone number...they were actually real nice about me calling them and told me that the car was in a flood, and that the car was ran from florida to west virginia and hit a deer on the way up, and she basically ran the engine bad mo...

I don't know where to start but at the beginning...bare with me please:I bought this car last year in January as an R title for 3000. Original miles was 150,000. Day 2 of owning it the temp. went up and heater died. After resurfacing the head and replacing the head gasket all was well until August w...

thanks for the pic man! I have it finished up and working nice in the car...have to say it looks beautiful at night. This tv let's me upload a picture to save as the background during music play...just like a playstation 3! I've got to get a pic up soon so everyone can see how nice this unit looks!

hey thanks for the link on this topic! It does seem a bit tedious, but that is a great step by step how to and I'll be sure to follow through with the project soon...

true, the majority of the wires match up (obvious red=power, black = ground and all the speaker wires are matched up), and I soddered those wires up and black taped them...but there are some other ones that are confusing me...such as:On the pioneer wiring harness1. I have an all yellow 'mute' wire t...

nope! After hearing all the suggestions, I think I'm going to keep the factory colors... thanks anyway everybody!

I don't like the red color behind the steering wheel where you see your MPH, gas guage and RPMs. I want to make them blue. How do I do this?

Hi all...I just purchased a New Double Din Pioneer Headunit for my 2003 Vibe base package. My car is going to be in the shop for a min., and wanted to get all the wiring ready in the meantime. I have a wiring harness adaptor for the Vibe from a previous install, and the wiring harness that goes into...

ok, now for an update:I just bit the bullet a week back and replaced the cat (or should I say double cat???) with an OEM part. Car runs great. However,another engine light came on. Two codes popped up, one indicating the O2 sensor, the other the coolant temp sensor. I just took out both O2 sensors a...

if it was the Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve, is it something that I could replace fairly easy? If it's not obvious enough, I don't have a lot of money to take to the shops anymore (I already spent close to 2 grand in repairs already). I don't mind spending another 100-200 bucks on a needed part if...

OK, quick update:Yesterday I checked the oil level and it was a half quart low, so after putting it in I noticed the Engine Oil Light was off, power was back to normal, hell even the gas consumption slowed down to new car standards...I thought "Oh hell yes!!!"....until I noticed smoke comi...

Also, if anyone has a picture diagram of the location of the catalytic converter, as well as a picture of all vaccum hoses that could effect the car's performance, please send me. Thanks again.

Hi all! I've looked over this site for weeks now and I know you all are the ones to talk to. So......I recently purchased an R Title 03 Vibe Base w/moon and tunes. (I already know that I'm dumb for buying an R Title. But I digress..)Mileage was at 154000. Test drove that thing for 30 miles, and was ...
