    So going back to the AC "engineering" does anyone have some ideas on what could be going on? I can't hear the actuators move or switch at all. Hot and Cold do switch the actual temp. They have come back a lot lower than we initially talked over the weekend. I am pretty much sold on it, still...

    So checked it out today. Outside, clean but covered in Bernie Sanders stickers on the back and NRA stickers on the doors. Told them that was a bit down sell and no telling what it did to the paint under it. Would like to meet the Sanders supporter who is also very pro 2nd. AC has a manual cut...

    I just got this in on the Liberty: "The main reason was that the car had an aftermarket switch installed to turn off the air conditioner" I hope to run by and check it out by Friday.

    I have an 02 and other than the known things about the Liberty such as gas mileage I totally love it for my daily driver. That said I may have a lead on a super low mileage 07 Sport and wondering about any opinions on that model year. Not crazy about the Sport's crappy wheels and seats but if I...

    Blend Doors

    So I keep going over and over my heat problems and really don't feel the heater core is the actual problem. I have always got far to much outside air in the vehicle when the A/C is on recirculate and suspect this is also causing my heat problem now, to much cold air in the mix. On the 02 it...

    Tire time again - suggestions

    Well I'll be putting on tires sometime in the next three or so months so was looking at the options and wondering what others had experienced with their Liberty. Current set is the Hankook Dynapro AT/m and generally I have liked these tires. As they aged I did find their wet traction...

    Bad Starter?

    Well I took it in last month and told them when I dropped it off what it was doing and that I had pretty much isolated it out to be the starter so go ahead and replace it. Called them three hours later and they said, "we couldn't reproduce the problem so we have not done any work on it." I was...

    Bad Starter?

    I should not hear the fuel pump if it's the actuator, pretty sure I did. Of course today it turned over as expected. It has done this a couple of times since the rebuilt engine went in, last time was a month ago. Again if it was the actuator it should be more consistent with it failing more and...

    Bad Starter?

    I don't recall hearing anything but normal startup beeps and fuel pump which pretty much negates it being the interlock. Of course this morning it started right up. It's at the shop. I told them to check it out but I'd prefer to error on just replacing a 17 year old starter. I don't have the...

    Bad Starter?

    Several times now I have had real problems getting my engine to crank as turning the key does nothing. Lights come on and so forth but no starter noise/crank. Today when it happened I went ahead and help the key in the full start position and eventually the starter turned over and started the...

    Heater Core Revisited.

    Engine Coolant Temps 195 Degrees at highway speed, air temp low 40's to mid 30's 200 Degrees at city speeds, air temp low 40's to mid 30's Heater Selection on Vent, full hot, low fan speed Vent temps at highway, 125-130 Vent temps at city, 130 Vent temps parked, 135-140 New...

    Heater Core Revisited.

    I am referring to the inside filter under the dash which if clogged will kill your recirculating air speed. Under the glove box.

    Heater Core Revisited.

    Good thought. I have one but generally looking at my phone to read it while driving isn't a good idea. I'll see if the app has logging built in. Considering I have a new, rebuilt engine and all new cooling system (radiator, water pump, therm, and some other crap) I should not be having any...

    Heater Core Revisited.

    Somewhat and yes it needs cleaned. I had really horrible airflow when recirculating air was selected, I assumed a bad actuator. Pulled the glove box and in the upper right area you will see a "filter" or mesh and if you have never cleaned it out it will be pretty much clogged. Just stuff a shop...

    Heater Core Revisited.

    So flushed again this past weekend. Again I had a snail size tube of jelly come out along with some minor scale. I then did a closed loop running CLR through the system, backwards and forwards for about 15 mins. I would have gone longer but the drill pump from Harbor Freight started...

    Heater Core Revisited.

    So I am back at the beginning asking the same question. Can a backflush of the HEAT CORE ONLY bypass the heater core tubes? and pass from one side to the other? When flushing and you get no restriction in the water flow can the core still be clogged, can water just flow across the top of the...

    Heater Core Revisited.

    I think so as A/C was great this year after cleaning the filter under the dash. I'd like to get the dealer to do a check but I keep getting mixed answers for this model (02). I asked if they didn't have a diag tool which told them the positions the door was opening to and closing to as the 02...

    LED interior lighting issue

    Holy crap that's a huge cargo light. Get calls from the airport tower to turn them off? I'd be worried about heat with that many LEDs in the cargo light box.

    LED interior lighting issue

    Might be a Limited upgrade but willing to bet the wiring is there on all models. Passenger side is recessed in a round hole about 2 inches from the front of the glove box. Driver side is centered and recessed as well, more so though thus part of the reason a brighter light doesn't help. Can't...

    No Cruise Control

    So here is the cable end. As you can see the plastic lip is broken off the lower right, I am sure this happened during my engine replacement. I don't see why I would be able to just build up a little shelf with some high temp epoxy and if needed I can go back in and dremel out any excess and...
