  1. Are you referring to the PCB(s) contained within the enclosure? I question whether you will locate that elsewhere, likely confined to Ford and the original producer. Regardless, I doubt it would consist of anything more than a microcontroller chip and several peripherals to manage the I/O tasks. A more informative approach would be to disassemble it, examine the chip for any markings, and locate a reference manual for that chip; however, without comprehending the source code operating on it, I anticipate it would be of limited utility.
  2. I have attempted using a different fully charged battery. However, it remains unchanged. I am uncertain whether using the small Skoda to jump it will be beneficial, but it may be worth attempting. Merely concerned about investing in a new battery if it is indicative of a more significant problem.
  3. Greetings, everyone. My vehicle has been inoperable for approximately two years because of a significant fissure in the turbo housing. I have finally managed to replace the turbo as I desire to have it operational again. I removed the battery and performed a complete repair and recharge since it was depleted. The engine was reassembled and tightened, yet when the ignition was activated, there was no cranking, and the dashboard lights went dark. I opted to examine the starter since it resembled a short circuit and was nonfunctional (tested outside the vehicle with the battery). Consequently, I purchased a new one. The same occurrence persists. Considering the vehicle was operated approximately a year ago to relocate it to a more suitable location. I am unable to comprehend the potential causes of this electrical failure when I attempt to initiate it. It reverts to its standard state when the key is restored to the ignition on position. Any assistance would be immensely valued as I am presently operating a rather uninspiring Skoda Roomster diesel.

  5. I don't think it's anyone on this forum (unless I've missed the topic), but if anyone is searching for a high-mileage, seemingly well-maintained SLK55, I have one. SLK55 is It has the same two-tone inside as mine, but I can't say anything about the grill. The full service is about to be finished. However, after reading the description, the seller's retaliatory actions really stuck out to me. This is unfortunate, but it seems like a group of people who aren't British almost roasted him. A reasonable cost, although
  6. In my opinion, the simplest option would be to install an aftermarket TPMS system. It definitely wouldn't be that easy to equip a Latin American CX-90 with TPMS sensors in the tires. The capability would also typically have to be enabled on the car, possibly using Mazda Diagnostic and Repair Software (MDARS) or a comparable program. That will only function if the device is not locked to a specific region and if it is compatible with the software and hardware of the car. Adding or replacing parts generally won't help if the vehicle's software or hardware doesn't support TPMS. If my memory serves me well, the TPMS and keyless entry wireless receivers are housed in the same module. Whether or not your keys function, among other things, may depend on whether or not the Latin American module supports TPMS. If it doesn't, then you may need to replace it with one that does. While researching this topic, I came across some online discussions pertaining to the Philippine market, where Mazda also chose not to include TPMS. No one in those discussions managed to activate TPMS on their Mazda. You might have to locate a helpful Mazda technician who is willing to fiddle with the MDARS settings if you want an authoritative response, though. Unlike the Volkswagens sold in the US, which used indirect TPMS, I don't think this is very likely. These could be configured to use TPMS sensors through ODIS, which is VW's version of MDARS.
  7. Just the other week, I had a little twig (or branch, slightly bigger) stuck in my back wheel. Sounds pretty much the same to me. I managed to extract it by squeezing my palm narrowly between the spokes. While you're driving, a little branch inside your wheel or spoke could break off, leaving the remainder stuck behind. If I hadn't been on the lookout for it, I probably wouldn't have noticed it right away. I would look under your vehicle from the side opposite the source of the noise or, if you think it's related to speed, inside the wheels to see if there's anything there. It could be anything else, but that's a good place to start. Also, make sure the tyre isn't being scraped by any loose trim pieces (or ones that don't have a push-pin).
  8. It's fucking killing me. This wasn't the case when I first got it, and I only started using it about three weeks ago. My 2025 cx70 has three thousand miles on it. Whenever I come up behind another car at a stop light, the front camera and continuous beeping start acting as if I'm extremely close to the car in front of me, but this crap happens whether I'm two feet or six feet away. I've attempted to alter the security parameters, but to no avail. Do I need to schedule an appointment and bring it in, or is there something I can do? I'm curious if anyone else has experienced this or if it's happening to anyone else.
  9. In Canada, our warranty includes three years of roadside assistance with unlimited mileage. We receive a comprehensive warranty for three years with unlimited mileage, and a powertrain warranty for five years with unlimited mileage. The roadside assistance, included in our warranty, provides complimentary towing to the nearest Mazda dealership, and if a breakdown occurs more than 100 km from home, it also covers hotel accommodations and meals.

  11. I recently discovered that someone else reported the identical issue almost one year ago. I do not remember who initiated the discussion or the precise subject line, but the final contributor proposed incorporating an inline PCV while retaining the existing one. I seek further information regarding this matter. Advantages and disadvantages
  12. It appears that I was meant to introduce myself in the initial post. It is hoped that the moderator can relocate it to a more visible position.
