Anyone have clue which fuse position to check?
Thanks,
Bucketdad
Check out this link too. Maybe a circuit board has a cold solder joint or fried part?

I though I read something about this in a post a few years back.
h those units cost.
Any ideas on what I might look at as a possible cause of this problem?
It seems to me that if you are getting OK mileage on the road but poor mileage in town that the problem is more likely related to driving style than to a mechanical problem.
FWIW, I have a '99 and get about 16 mpg in town and fight to get over 20 on the highway.
Any info you have would be helpful.
That's the best justification for changing the timing belt I've seen and a good way to avoid the interference/non-interference debate entirely. :shades:
I'm saving up to do the belt and plugs on my '99 at the same time. I don't want to tackle the plugs since I'm afraid they may be frozen a bit.
Dunno about the motor mounts, but if half are bad (again!), changing all four may be good insurance.

Any ideas?
I don't believe it's the thermostat, since the temperature gauge is working properly.
Can someone help?

Just when i spent $380 on new brakes and water pump. now A/C compresssor stopped working on my 96 villager. Initially i thought I may have low refrigerant level so checked the pressure on the "recharge valve" with engine running and it shows 75psi, which is too high. Does it mean I have a clogged line? Is there anythign obvious i can check before taking it to the mechanic? (mechanic will charge $40 just to look at it and then the "other" charges will start..) Thanks for help in advance
I checked everything I could find through the owners manual and instrument layout.

Thanks

The caliper bolts are Torx bits. Sorry, I don't remember the size. When I did my brakes I bought an assorted set that fits a socket wrench. Some folks have had trouble getting these bolts out & have broken the bits, so beware. Other than that these brakes are pretty easy to work on. You might want to pick up some bolts to thread in the holes in the rotors to get those off.

PS Hosts - can we get Torx in the spellcheck dictionary? I'll have to remember that word next time I play Scrabble...
My factory manual irritates me on fasteners; it gives torque requirements for every one, but it never tells you the bolt or nut size required.
