    Great video! Just echoing what so many have posted. FWIW, I unscrewed the green ground wire near the front during disassembly. This allowed me to more easily remove the wires connected to the element. I was able to pull element housing all the way out, and then disconnect wires.

    Your video got me to thinking about something that won't fall off over time and the first thing that popped into mind of a simple thumb tack placed in the middle of the piece of rubber. This works and doesn't depend on tape which eventually may unwrap and penny fall to the floor. Thanks for you video. Helped me find a better fix.

    Very helpful video. It was a little different on my 02 5.9L 4x4 1500. The starter is sort of cramped into a cubbyhole and just getting the bolts off (one bolt, one nut) was tough because the tight space, and then worming it out of it's cubby and back in again. Forget breaker bars and torque wrenches! All the same, couldn't have done it without you. Thanks!

    I’m having a similar problem in my ‘15 Accord 6MT, but it’s with my clutch pedal. There is a small (<1cm) amount of play in the pedal before resistance starts, and cruise only sets when it is slightly pushed in. The pushpin sensor is threaded, so it would make sense to me if it can just be tightened down ever so slightly. I’m worried doing so might cause wear on my clutch though. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Thank you!

    I just did this and it lasted about 20 minutes it was super hot on medium setting it turned off by itself and wouldn't go to any other settings. I had to manually turn it off, so i turned back on and left heat on a really low setting and still got hot and shut off after about 3 minutes. So i gotta check what i did wrong, but i know i put all wires back how tgey were with the old one and the heating element.

    • @DIYJeff
      @DIYJeff 15 днів тому

      Not sure if you solved the problem, but it could be your thermostat went bad and it's not regulating the heating element, or you could have a clogged vent which is causing it to overheat.

    I recommend that you do not remove the radiator cap before you begin to drain. This way, it will drain much slower until you are sure you have yourself out of the way of spilling liquid and the drain pan in place. Then, remove the radiator cap. Use this method on any vehicle. You’re welcome! lol

    Did this job yesterday on a '03 Ram 1500 2WD Automatic. Everything shown in this video was dead-on. I even decided to use the 5/8" socket rather than a 16mm as it was a tighter fit to the mounting bolts. I used a universal joint with the socket/ratchet, but I really didn't need to. I was able to use my 1/2" torque wrench to torque the mounting bolts to 50 ft-lb (as specified in the service manual) without using an extension for either bolt. The toughest thing for me was getting the electrical connector fully seated on the new starter (AutoZone Duralast) as the connector didn't want to insert far enough to "latch" the retaining clip. I eventually got it to hold.
