  1. I fully get the concept. During nighttime conditions, it is advisable to make modifications to the brightness settings of the instrument cluster. Please attempt to do the task.
  2. Please verify the dash lighting setting. Uncertain as to whether it pertains to the traditional pin in the cluster design or a more contemporary one.
  3. I am pleased that you have successfully identified the issue with the connection, which was previously experiencing difficulties.
  4. Typically, these systems are equipped with two wires: one wire is responsible for energizing the field coils, while the other wire is connected to the dashboard light. Although I have seen instances when a single wire is used, I have not yet engaged in the diagnostic process for such a configuration.
  5. Upon careful consideration, I have contemplated the notion of acquiring a new gasket. However, I agree with your assertion that the felpro gasket I previously installed had a striking resemblance to a sheet of grey construction paper.I am planning to remove the intake manifold. Does anybody have suggestions for ensuring a proper seal, such as using an improved gasket or a suitable sealant? I am interested in acquiring a novel and innovative concept at this juncture.
  6. The transmission fluid seems to be in acceptable condition, and it is worth noting that there is no transmission cooler integrated with the radiator. Although the vehicle is older, it has accumulated a relatively low mileage of 111,000 kilometers. The radiator seems to be in a pristine condition.
  7. I am in possession of an 89 Mazda 626 with an automatic transmission and a 2.2L engine, which does not possess a turbocharger. Upon purchasing the vehicle, I made the disconcerting observation of oil presence inside the radiator system.Based on my assumption that the issue lay with the head gasket, I proceeded to replace the gasket, conduct a pressure test on the cylinder head, and afterwards reassemble the components. It is worth noting that despite the absence of any indications of water or coolant contamination in the oil, the engine exhibited satisfactory compression levels and operated rather smoothly. At now, I own a very functional automobile that has undergone repairs, namely the replacement of the head gasket, which has resulted in the presence of oil inside the coolant system. It is important to highlight that the vehicle is functioning well, with a stable temperature and no presence of coolant in the oil. Furthermore, this observation was made two days after the completion of repairs. The oil in the overflow container is not mixed or frothy, and the liquid being discharged from the radiator overflow seems to be rather clean. The auditory perception of fluid being drawn back into the radiator via the top hose suggests the possibility of oil being entrained with the coolant during the cooling process. Assistance in this matter would be highly appreciated.
