I purchased a 2005 405 CDI.
I have no owners manual or repair manual.
I changed oil/ filter
1. AC not working. Red dash AC lights "on" put some 134 in port and it seems to hold pressure at port. No cold, How do i diagnose?
2. I fumble with sequence to start the car. I expect there is a problem. What is normal?
3. Headlights motor noise and level control switch mystify me! I have no idea how to diagnose motor control. Passenger side stuck down. Driver side tracks switch setting but motor runs constantly. I need a manual. And wiring diagram
4. Intercooler fan was growling, followed by sacrificing itself with a cloud of smoke. Bearings felt smooth but DC windings were all but gone making a growling noise.
Denso DER16002 replacement fan was $30.
4. Speedo was km only, so I mounted a Scan Gauge II in speedo housing.
5. What is the goofy tubed three pin connector mounted on a flat plate flopping around in the front left bumper. It has a wiring loom looping down towards center of car.
6. Headlight housings have modified abandoned light fixtures with cut and terminated wires? Socket is odd offset pins as to confuse me as what style of bulb will fit? Not 180 degree two pin like 1156
7. This car came with blizzard snow tires on the rims. I would like to know what the original size should be and if anybody has any tires available?
Any help getting me on the right path is welcome.
I have been repairing my own cars for 35 years and expect Smart Cars are best for a DIY, as repair centers are distant.
