I have put in over $1k into this truck....full-on tune-up (replacing wires...everything), then just replaced BOTH heads, and the 'check engine' light is illuminating...took it back to mechanic, he checked it, the code referall was all simple things, like...'check air filter', he checked...

Hi, hoping you can offer some insight....My Front/Left Indicator Lens (the whole plastic, amber, housing) is Missing! Including the bulb! I do not know what happened. One minute, my truck is in Primo condition, the next, I see no light! There is no evidence of impact anywhere, there is no...

Need key Why I have to have '2 keys' to make the elusive duplicate key? If I had 2 friggin keys, I would'nt need a third one! Isn't there anyway around giving the 'stealer' $100? I have read most of these threads, and understand the procedure, sort of.:p:

Thanks! Want to come out and install it? ha! Thank you so much for taking the time to send me that link! I figured as much by simply looking at it, but then again, nothing is ever simple!

The 'chrome' part (on top) and the black/plastic part on the bottom? Because, the chrome part is scratched, and pushed in at points, yet the lower part, the black plastic is fine. Can I just replace the chrome part?:salute:

I cannot remove this stupid thing! I am so frustrated right now! It appears to be just your regular run of the mill screw thing, but on the inside of the plate (the back) I can feel its got some housing/covering thing on it. I know, if I was a guy, my strong hand could probably just pull it...

I feel kinda silly, as it was no biggie, I just made sure the rear sliding window was closed and shut properly!

Thanks! 2 replies... AAA. I live in L.A., I cannot just hop out on the side of the freeway and change a tire!ha! Wearing a skirt, people yelling, police don't even help you.

Thanks! 2 replies... So, the lug 'lock' looks essentially the same as the lug nuts, then? I mean, obviously I will never change a tire, but I just want to know if I have them already. OMG, what if I do, I don't have any 'key'. What 'kind' of rims do I have....silver ones! Ha, I don't...

What about 'jet nitro' fuel? This gas station sells this super-duper high-octane gas (Ostensibly for racing, I guess). Its expensive. Can I do like 1/2 and 1/2?

Is that what they're called? So no one will steal my nice rims? If not, do I just buy them at Pep Boys? Are there different ones for different types? Are they easy to put on? Then I have to carry around another 'key'?

I want to buy a bike (bicycle) and place it in the bed to drive it somewhere to ride. Is there a certain way to do it? Can I just throw it in there? People say I should get a 'bike rack'. I say, what for, thats why I bought a truck so I could just throw things in there.

What do you guys think of these products? I mean, are they really useful? I guess I could see the 'Divider be it a 'bar' or box might be helpful for storing small 'loads' such as groceries. I'm not crazy about 'Extender' but a friend has one in his truck and it like retracts, I like it. What...

Thank you Edog, you rock. Thanks for taking the time to send me all those 'threads'. It was the sliding back window! I didn't know that was hooked up with the doors. I would've never figured it out...thanks!

Sorry, thanks (she's '03 with 115k)

Hi, my truck's dash light is now intermittitenly telling me that the 'door is ajar'. It is NOT. I don't know why it thinks that, but its driving me nuts. I open the door, I shut the door, I lock the door. She also starts chirping wildly, to tell me that the key is in the ignition, after I...

Thanks for the info. I did check all of those fuses and they are fine! My radio still does not want to turn on! Now, what should I do? Check to see if its disconnected from the 'amp'?

Thanks so much for all your replies! My mechanic says, he cannot check it unless the light is on when I bring it to him. Well, of course, the light only goes on when I'm no where near him! My commute is 40m one way. It started flashing again this morning, on an incline as she is positively...

My new (to me) '03 Ranger feels like its 'struggling'. She hesitates and slips, on deep acceleration (I couldn't 'race' anybody, if I even wanted to), especially on an incline. I have a long commute, and today the check engine light started flashing. I checked all dash gauges, all good, all...

Dash fuse panel? You mean, under the hood right, the fuse-box? Thank you guys soooo much. I have a long commute and the silence is deafening!

Hey Fellas, my '03 Ranger the radio will not work. I do not have an owner's manual and the Haynes book I purchased does not say....does anyone know which fuse is for the radio? I do not have the time, patience, torque, strength, eye-sight, to pull out each and every fuse to check them out...

Yes, I know, as a last resort, I've got the junkyard, yuk(if you can't tell already, I'm a GIRL), or the dealer (they just want to sell me a new car). I was just hoping someone had some 'secret' quick-fix or something! Its like one of the main things, and aside from driving me crazy, its...

Mirror won't move So, are you suggesting I 'squirt it ' at the car wash? What about WD-40-ing it somewhere?

Mirror no MOVE Hi Brian and thanks for the answer, now, I may be Blonde, but c'mon! If it was that easy.......Of course I've 'pushed it'. It seems like its either stuck on something or perhaps, its just the opposite, that it can't 'hold' where I want it???:rolleyes:

what do you guys suggest?
