SOURCE: how do you change a front turnsignal lightbulb on

IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY YOU HAVE TO REMOVE THE WHOLE LIGHT TO REPLACE THEM. ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE LIGHTS ARE 2 RODS THAT CAN BE PULLED UP TO RELEASE THE LENS. THERE ARE SLOTS ON THESE RODS AND TABS ON THE LENSES. LINE THEM UP AND THE LIGHT SHOULD COME FORWARD. HOPE THIS HELPS. LET ME KNOW. GOOD LUCK.

SOURCE: 5 engine light came on took it and hooked it up to a tester it read po 300 random misfire also po660 intake manifold tuning valves control circuit

Hi there:

A P0300 diagnostic code indicates a random or multiple misfire. If the last digit is a number other than zero, it corresponds to the cylinder number that is misfiring. A P0302 code, for example, would tell you cylinder number two is misfiring. Unfortunately, a P0300 doesn't tell you specifically which cylinder(s) is/are mis-firing, nor why.


A code P0300 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:
Faulty spark plugs or wires
Faulty coil (pack)
Faulty oxygen sensor(s)
Faulty fuel injector(s)
Burned exhaust valve
Faulty catalytic converter(s)
Stuck/blocked EGR valve / passages
Faulty camshaft position sensor
Defective computer


Possible Solutions: If there are no symptoms, the simplest thing to do is to reset the code and see if it comes back.


If there are symptoms such as the engine is stumbling or hesitating, check all wiring and connectors that lead to the cylinders (i.e. spark plugs). Depending on how long the ignition components have been in the car, it may be a good idea to replace them as part of your regular maintenance schedule. I would suggest spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor cap, and rotor (if applicable). Otherwise, check the coils (a.k.a. coil packs). In some cases, the catalytic converter has gone bad. If you smell rotten eggs in the exhaust, your cat converter needs to be replaced. I've also heard in other cases the problems were faulty fuel injectors.


Random misfires that jump around from one cylinder to another (read: P030x codes) also will set a P0300 code. The underlying cause is often a lean fuel condition, which may be due to a vacuum leak in the intake manifold or unmetered air getting past the airflow sensor, or an EGR valve that is stuck open.




Now, about P0660, check diagnostic test HERE.


Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using FixYa, have a nice day.

I have a Pontiac G6 v6 3.9 .. I have a code p2078 twice.. do I have to change the intake manifold tuning valve sensor or what?

What year is it ?
DTC P2078: Intake Manifold Tuning (IMT) Valve Position Sensor Circuit High Voltage
Associated with this code or any coded is a diagnostic flow chart ,for testing of the electrical circuit's for the position sensor . If you don't know that ,an know how to test electrical circuit's ,your best bet , take it to a qualified repair . Rather then guessing an just replacing parts .

Circuit/System Description
An intake manifold tuning (IMT) valve is used to change the intake manifold plenum configuration. When the IMT valve is open, the intake manifold is configured to one large plenum. When the IMT valve is closed, the intake manifold is configured to 2 smaller plenums. The IMT valve improves engine performance at low and high engine speeds depending on the engine load. The IMT valve assembly consists of the following:
• A tuning valve
• A microprocessor
• An electric motor
• A hall-effect sensor
• An ignition voltage circuit
• A ground circuit
• An IMT valve control circuit
• An IMT valve signal circuit

P2078
The engine control module detects an open in the IMT valve ground or a continuous short to voltage in either the IMT valve signal circuit or the sensor. This diagnostic runs continuous when the conditions for running are met.
Test the electrical circuit's !!!!!!! you would need a wiring diagram

Circuit/System Testing
Ignition OFF, disconnect the IMT valve harness connector at the IMT valve.
Test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between the IMT valve ground circuit terminal B and ground.
? If greater than the specified value, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the IMT valve ignition 1 voltage circuit terminal A and ground.
? If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the IMT valve ignition 1 voltage circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the fuse for the IMT valve ignition 1 voltage circuit is open, test or replace the IMT valve.
Connect a test lamp between the IMT valve control circuit terminal C and the IMT valve ignition 1 voltage circuit terminal A.
Command the IMT valve ON and OFF with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
? If the test lamp is always ON, test the IMT valve control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the engine control module.
? If the test lamp is always OFF, test the IMT valve control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the engine control module.
Ignition ON, test for 4-6 volts between the IMT valve signal circuit terminal D and ground.
? If less than the specified range, test the IMT valve signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the engine control module.
? If greater than the specified range, test the IMT valve signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the engine control module.
Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the IMT valve signal circuit terminal D and ground. Verify the scan tool IMT valve Feedback parameter transitions from 0-100 percent.
? If parameter does not change, test the IMT valve signal circuit for short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the engine control module.
If all circuits test normal, test or replace the IMT valve.

Code PO660 has come up. How do you fix it

code p 0660 refers to intake manifold tuning valve ,bank 1--circuit open===causes --wiring--intake manifold tuning valve
The fix will be a replace valve
the problem is to find it's location but if you talk with Mazda spares or service department , they should show you where it is located
a workshop manual would be a help as well

How do you correct for error code on 2003 Lincoln Aviator with code P2071, intake Manifold Tuning (IMT) valve stuck closed Bank 1

This has a double intake manifold with control actuators at the base of the manifold most are vacuum controlled the computer monitors these actuators positions. #1 locate passenger actuator and lever position with engine off put a vacuum hose on it and suck on hose and watch arm lever it should move then place tongue against hose it should hold that position if it does not actuator is bad if it does the the control solenoid is at fault or no engine vacuum to solenoid.

Cylinder one on monte carlo 2003

If the code is 301 it means there is no power from that cylinder. It could be a problem with the ignition, fuel injector, or something mechanical.

Have a 2003 monty carlo ss. I have had to get system completely flushed 5 times keeps getting gunked up. It's only been six months and I have to get it flushed again.Service engine light also stays...

If you are talking about the coolant system there are a few things that cause them to get gunked up. I have found most of the time with the 3.8 liter and 3.4 liter motors that the intake gasket is leaking and allowing oil to mix with the antifreeze and I have also run across people mixing Dexcool and regular green antifreeze and that will cause the cooling system to gel up also.
