I'm going this weekend to check on a few things.

 

although I havent looked exactly at this new trans yet, it probably wont have a VSS. Mitsu deleted them about 4 years ago, and instead uses the output speed sensor on the trans, calculated inside the PCM (or in this case, the TCM) and communicated with the CAN BUS to all other needed control units (the instrument cluster control unit, the ECM, ABS, etc.etc). you cannot unhook the output speed sensor, as it is of primary importance for the correct function of the trans. Even if you could disable a VSS, you would have warning lights coming on all over.

if you have the NAV unit, it may be the CAN communication box for it. The Navigation needs a "translator" to speak to the CAN BUS.

if I remember, no problem. However, im absent minded about things like that at work. Ill try my best to remember, but no garantees.


Im sure a bean counter somewhere decided it wasnt worth it to import some of the goofier accesories. Its not like someone in cypress is secretly preventing people from buying their merchandise!

I THINK they'll stay off if you start the car with the parking brake on, then will come on when its released. I dont think it will shut back off if you re-engage the brake, though.

Is it really that annoying to have lights on? I drive motorcycles, and would feel quite a bit less safe if headlight use wasnt manditory.

 

What's up with the little input jack you see when the Navi screen is open?

 

hey dudes!!! any info. about the clank-clank noise??? this thing is weird, everytime i, pull out of my garage in reverse.....wow.[:'(](dont tell me this thing is a re-call??? shoot!!!)

 

Nothing yet....but I have not had that noise in about a week now, weird huh?

great....i, went to work this morning, when i pulled out, there is no noise. and i, racked over 500 miles already.could be you know....vehicle still brand new?? (i, hope!!) but navi. system all normal, no new info. or what so ever. whats up w/ the navi. anyway?? causing a problem too?? so, far mine is all normal, w/ the exception of the driveengagementnoise.

 

When you flip the Navi screen down there is a little aux input jammie on the bottom of the screen on the left side. My dealer told me that was for loading music from yr iPod...which I thought was just crazy. Anybody look into this? Also......how is everybody putting music on the HD? What format are you burning cd's?

 

wow...something new to me. i, remeber my dealer mentioned about dl music, but dont know how to accomplish it. and yeah the button sez "load" i, think thats the one for i-pod. but again, dont know shizzznits yet.

 

Ok, we need to find out what the hell this little input hole is under the navi screen...my dealer has no clue...blaaaaa.
Manybrews...any light you can shine on this one?

 

bump.......
