my hubby did check everything he could think of which is why he had that Trenton Auto Shop to check it out. He has another shop in the work to get it hauled to there since they are more "smarter and dedicated" but not cheap to fix the problem. But he is hoping that the Trenton Auto Shop will fix the spring shock BEFORE having it transferred to the other shop. I have told him if money is an issue we should have someone we know who can fix cars and wouldn't mind working on our van to get the stuff working. no one i know locally in family n friends wise to help out yet they always drop everything to help my other family members in need of help. You guys only know what I have been told and what I can remember that happened. My memory is a little shady from those days cause I was having a lot of heart problems and allergic reaction to heart meds during those months
Turned key no clicking, dashboard lights off, no power for windows, he lifted some small thing near the gear shift and stuck something in there to see if anything different, i don't know what the results were suppose to be(sorry), He replaced the battery several times cause one battery had bad cells, other one was dead and he got a new one again a few days later. the new alt. got us going and he spent hours to make sure it was good to go, bolts, cords and all in proper places just so we could go to a family thanksgiving dinner. he did check that T like shape thing like in that one video and that was replaced, he has pulled every single fuses and replaced every single one of em. Shop told him its either wires or computer but they don't know how to fix it. let alone they haven't even replaced the spring shock on the car that we have sent them the part for. we were promised that they would have it fixed over the weekend, never happened.
I feel like we are right back where we were when our toyota broke down really bad where we mad rushed for a rental so we could go to the nashville fest. ever since we have moved to TN we have had nothing but bad luck with cars here in TN. Water in gas station gas and they refused to help pay for the shop repairs so it ended been reclaimed by the dealer ship. the other car, timing belt, spark plugs got stuck in and hood went flying off on it, cant remember what triggered that chain of event but it all happened real fast. another car was in the process of going to be worked on but other stuff came up and it got repo'd. and now we are back to 1 car which is our van.
