#86 of 6383 Heres a new one by figmoman Dec 08, 2000 (3:28 am)
The other morning while driving the kids to school i noticed the temp-direction display on the windshield mirror had every flourescent segment lit at the same time. Turning it off and on did not change it. When the kids got out 20 miles later, it started operating correctly and has been fine since. Last summer driving through Utah, the direction indicator went nuts for a couple of hours giving eronious direction and then fixed itself. Last month while near the Mexican boarder the word "rec" came on for a while. Im assuming this stands for recalibrate. Anyone else have these strange things happening with their inside mirrors?

#87 of 6383 Auto Start #75 & 90 by rdg1 Dec 08, 2000 (3:51 am)
I concur with #90, I too have experienced several times, the radio turns off after 15 minutes, when ignition is off and no doors have been opened. So, it should not run the battery down.
#88 of 6383 RE:Post 89 Fog Lamp/Rear Wiper by don434 Dec 08, 2000 (4:01 am)
Clifford: The fuse is located in the Engine Wiring Junction Block - not the Instrument Panel Block. It is fuse #59 and is rated at 25 amperes on the fuse block page but on the wiring diagram it said 15 amp. Go figure. Another item for me to feed back to the service manual troops. I noticed that the fog lamp relay is just above and slightly to the left of this fuse. I thought that maybe the relay coil is inducing a pulse into the Wiper Fuse Wire but then I remembered that the open wiper switch blocks a conduction path. If a volt meter doesn`t find a improper voltage level I bet they will end up using a scope to look for the triggering pulse. Dam - I wish you lived in Maryland I would love to drop over and take some measurements with a scope. Don434
#89 of 6383 don434 - re: Rear View Mirror Adjustment by fcornay Dec 08, 2000 (4:45 am)
Don:    Reference your post # 86. Tomorrow, when it is light outside, I will center the mirror and then try to move the mirror manually to see if the rearward view can be shifted farther to the left.     Must go to Tacoma tomorrow morning so it will be a while before I can report back.     Thanks again for your assistance.     I did not realize that you were recuperating until I read your message to Clifford. May you regain your strength and health soon.     Regards,       fcornay
#90 of 6383 axle ratio chart by dspangenberg Dec 08, 2000 (5:01 am)
I saw a link on one of the boards here that referred to an axle ratio chart that outlined the effect of different axle sizes, RPM's etc. I thought I bookmarked it, but can't find it now... Anyone? Dan

#93 of 6383 Reverse sensors by pep4 Dec 08, 2000 (1:10 pm)
I have recently installed the Poron reverse sensing system on my 2000 Tahoe. Took me about an hour. Threaded everything hidden into the interior. Works as described above with the voice indidcating the distance, also has a beep that increases in frequency. Works very well. I was more worried about hitting a child that would be hard to see behind the vehicle. Cost me$180 including shippping. Was delivered in 2 days. Note there is a more expensive one that has a digital readout that mounts on the rearview mirror but that didn't make any sense to me.
#94 of 6383 Retained Accessory Power (RAP) by onalaska Dec 08, 2000 (1:34 pm)
Ron and Joseph. Your comments about the radio staying on after the ignition is shut off is a feature called RAP or retained accessory power. This feature also turns off the dome lights if you leave a door or the tailgate open for an extended period of time. The delay is approx. 20 minutes and then all accessory power is cut to avoid running down the battery. The radio should turn itself off, this is normal. Steven

Thanks for the info... I guess I can quit walking half way across the parking lot after I hit the wrong button to reset the radio.
