Re: [BlindHandyMan] saving parts from a Dodge Caravan.
A friend of mine always says, if you can take it out with a screw driver, and it doesn't take more than 10 minutes to remove it, then go for it and salvage anything you can. Grin. Seriously, from what I hear, the first thing to go on one of those beasts is the transmission. If you can salvage it from the other one, and it works fine, I think this would be something worth removing, as replacing it could get very costly, as opposed to the time cost it would take to remove the old one. Just a thought.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Removing Splash Back Tiles
Okay! I am not handy at anything but had a thought. Before using a putty knife, what if you were to use a steamer...the kind one uses for steaming clothes...to loosen the tiles a bit. And then try the putty knife? I don't know if that would damage the sheet rock or not. I know that technique is used in removing wall paper.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] 2002 Buick Century TRAC OFF light?
Did you in any way bump or disturb the track sensor while changing the hub assembly? With respect to your scan tool, each manufacturer is different in their particular method of reading failure codes. For example the manufacturer's manual might call for you to turn the key onoff several times to activate the test and scan mode. Another thing you might try is with the battery connected remove the ECM fuse for 5 minutes and see if that clears the code. This is kind of a hale Marry shot but you might try alldata.com and see if they are giving any information away for free. I had kind of the same problem after installing a disk brake upgrade on an 04 Mustang. One ABS sensor ring inside the rotar hub was 0.010 smaller than the other three and it kept tripping the ABS warning light. That mother scratcher was a real party to find. Good luck guy.

Today I changed the front left hub assembly I.E. wheel bearing on a 2002 Buick Century. I wasn't sure which wheel bearing was bad so I jacked up the front of the car and blocked it so that both wheels were off the garage floor. I then had someone start the car and put it in drive, and accelerate to around 50 MPH . The left wheel was noisier than the right one, so I removed the old left side hub assembly containing the wheel bearing and replaced it with a new one. This did fix the wheel bearing noise, it is gone. However, now the TRAC OFF light on the dash is lit and stays on while the key is on and when the car is being driven down the road. How do I turn the light out? I double checked the wheel sensor and it is plugged in. I hooked up an OBD II scanner but for some reason it wouldn't communicate with the ECM so I couldn't pull any codes. I disconnected the positive cable from the battery for 10 minutes and reattached it. The light was out when I turned the key to the on position and stayed out when the car was started but came back on in 500 feet of travel down the street. The only thing I can think of to do is to try pulling the codes again. This OBD II code reader is fairly new to me. I only used it once before and that was on a 2000 F150 4x4. The truck had a miss. I plugged the scan tool into the port beneath the dash, turned the key to the on possession without starting the truck and then turned the scan tool on. The scan tool gave me a P0301 code. I changed the coil on plug and the miss was gone. When I plugged the scan tool into the Buick, I used the same procedure as for the F150 but for some reason, I got a message that the scanner could not communicate. Does anyone know if the procedure for pulling codes is different for a Ford verses a GM vehicle?

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Removing Splash Back Tiles
If memory serves me correctly it would seem to me that the moisture in the steam might damage the sheet rock. It's only called that but in reality it's a soft material that doesn't stand up to much abuse. I'm sure that there are others on here with more information than I have though.

I don't post very often at all. But on this topic, the luthier that Felix works with showed me how to fix a chip in the wood that was on a guitar neck-- a little boo boo where a small piece of wood had come out of the fretboard. Are you paying attention? He said to me very sternly and sort of upset me a bit. But it served its purpose-- to make me pay close attention. He had a glass jar full of rosewood 'sawdust' I guess you could call it. He had saved it from many many guitars he had worked on. He saved every last granual of rosewood sawdust-- he never threw any away, ever. The he took some superglue, yes, superglue and put a few drops into the hole, then some rosewood dust, then more superglue, then more rosewood dust, and so on until the hole was full. He then took some very fine sandpaper, 1500 grit, and buffed it smooth. And do you know what? When he was finished, you couldn't tell there was ever a hole there. Smooth as a baby's butt and visually too, there was no visual sign of the hole. (I am sighted.) I was very impressed. Then when we got home, Felix took some of the dust from the cardboard box he had his guitar sitting in while he was leveling the fretboard and had me put it into a baggie since we didn't have a nice big pickle jar handy like his luthier had, and then he asked me to fix a few smaller cacks that really only required one application of the superglue followed by one application of the saved dust, of which we didn't have much of anyway, and then I buffed it with 1500 grit sandpaper, and I too was able to smooth out some small nicks. Felix should have done it. Then he could describe it being done. But, it was me instead of him, this time. I'm only posting her today to describe my success in filling in holes in rosewood guitar fingerboards. Now, where does one find rosewood dust? The luthier saved his from leveling and cutting fretslots on many, many rosewood fingerboards. Felix and I think that if one knows where to get a piece of rosewood, it would be easy enough to make rosewood sawdust from that. Maybe even fun, too!

Re: [BlindHandyMan] 2002 Buick Century TRAC OFF light?
Yes, I had to disconnect the sensor wire. On this vehicle, the sensor wires go into the hub assembly. I installed the new hub assembly and plugged the wire back together. I was looking at it again this morning. I unplugged and plugged back in the wire a half dozen times and then applied some dielectric grease to the electrical connector, still the light will come back on in just a short distance of driving. Again, this morning I hooked back up the OBD II scanner. I got it to work however, there were no trouble codes stored. Another thing I did today is take the vehicle for a ride. At around 50 MPH, had the driver slam on the brakes as if a deer jumped out in front of her and the ABS braking system definitely is not working. There was no pulsing in the pedal. I also loosened the spindle nut and retorqued it to 140 ft. lbs. thinking that maybe it was to tight. This also did not resolve the problem. I will try your suggestion of pulling the ECM fuse If that doesn't do it, I will have her drive it for a day or so (she will have brakes, just not ABS brakes). If the lights are still on, I will try replacing the hub assembly with another one. Working on cars can sure build one's vocabulary of four letter words!

Did you in any way bump or disturb the track sensor while changing the hub assembly? With respect to your scan tool, each manufacturer is different in their particular method of reading failure codes. For example the manufacturer's manual might call for you to turn the key onoff several times to activate the test and scan mode. Another thing you might try is with the battery connected remove the ECM fuse for 5 minutes and see if that clears the code. This is kind of a hale Marry shot but you might try alldata.com and see if they are giving any information away for free. I had kind of the same problem after installing a disk brake upgrade on an 04 Mustang. One ABS sensor ring inside the rotar hub was 0.010 smaller than the other three and it kept tripping the ABS warning light. That mother scratcher was a real party to find. Good luck guy.

Today I changed the front left hub assembly I.E. wheel bearing on a 2002 Buick Century. I wasn't sure which wheel bearing was bad so I jacked up the front of the car and blocked it so that both wheels were off the garage floor. I then had someone start the car and put it in drive, and accelerate to around 50 MPH . The left wheel was noisier than the right one, so I removed the old left side hub assembly containing the wheel bearing and replaced it with a new one. This did fix the wheel bearing noise, it is gone. However, now the TRAC OFF light on the dash is lit and stays on while the key is on and when the car is being driven down the road. How do I turn the light out? I double checked the wheel sensor and it is plugged in. I hooked up an OBD II scanner but for some reason it wouldn't communicate with the ECM so I couldn't pull any codes. I disconnected the positive cable from the battery for 10 minutes and reattached it. The light was out when I turned the key to the on position and stayed out when the car was started but came back on in 500 feet of travel down the street. The only thing I can think of to do is to try pulling the codes again. This OBD II code reader is fairly new to me. I only used it once before and that was on a 2000 F150 4x4. The truck had a miss. I plugged the scan tool into the port beneath the dash, turned the key to the on possession without starting the truck and then turned the scan tool on. The scan tool gave me a P0301 code. I changed the coil on plug and the miss was gone. When I plugged the scan tool into the Buick, I used the same procedure as for the F150 but for some reason, I got a message that the scanner could not communicate. Does anyone know if the procedure for pulling codes is different for a Ford verses a GM vehicle?
