  1. Too Cool
    Paully got a reaction from OhareFred in Bad reception from RF HUB causing all our problems ?   
    As we all know . , there are many posts regarding the lack of response with the remote key fobs etc.
    Many dashboard info. cues. saying low remote batteries etc. etc.
    I for one do not believe that low batteries are happening here because you can replace the fob batteries 
    until the cows come home and still get the same message next week .?
    Here is what i believe is going on ...
    The radio antenna is mounted on the roof at the rear of the vehicle as is done across the pond .
    The " RF Hub " which is the little black box that receives radio signals from many sources etc. and which we are interested in is mounted just inches away from 
    the antenna in the rear upper headliner area !
    Surprise !
    I spent 15 years as a car stereo installer and i know how antennas act .
    Here is what im gonna do ...
    Pull off the headliner at the area of the ant., check for water intrusion , check for good ant. ground to body , check for corrosion 
    or bad contacts at the plugs on the RF Hub modual .
    Best o luck to all .
     
      
     
  2. LOL
    Paully got a reaction from jkeaton in Battery shelf   
    This has got to be the strangest and most dangerous way to mount a battery , that i for one have ever seen.
    In reply to imoore1436 .
    Are you kidding ... this vehicle was purchased by my wife and came with all the dealership hooks including all oil changes , check ups ,etc. It was in for other recall work also .
    After all that , not one person advised anything about a battery pan .
    As stated , i found this rotted out mess while changing out the battery myself .
    If anyone disagrees that a battery falling down in front of a front wheel will not cause an out of control condition ,
    i suggest you try it by running over a friggen battery at 60 mph.?!
    As for the battery cables holding the battery up because they have no slack ... are you kidding ???
    The 50 cent stamped pan cost me $200.00 because its not available in aftermarket !
    I just dont get this .
