SOURCE: hoist to lower spare tire does not work.

Same thing happened to me on my 2002 trailblazer. The last few wraps of the cable was corroded to the point that it wouldn't unwind with the tool supplied. First thing to do is cut the crimped end of the cable off with a grinder or cut off wheel but don't forget to support the spare. This will get the spare out of your way then simply take out the 3 mounting bolts for the cable hoist. At this point you could buy a new cable hoist from the dealer and install it yourself or you might be able to do what I did. I managed to pull and remove about a foot of the rusted cable, slide the rectangular metal piece, that actually holds the spare at the center of the wheel, back on the cable and attach a 1/4" cable clamp to the end of the cable which of course must be in good condition. There should still be enough cable to re-attach your spare to it and hoist it back up. Don't forget to lube things up so it won't happen again. Good luck. (buying a new one sounds better, doesn't it?)

SOURCE: Remove the steering wheel or airbag from a 2004 Volvo XC90?

You need a steering wheel puller. You may be able to rent this from your parts house. Disconnect the battery for no less than 1/2 hour before disconnecting the air bag or the air bag could deploy. Place air bag facing up or it could become a projectile if set off.

SOURCE: spare tire won't release.

This is the worst GM engineering i have ever seen !!!! The secondary locking mech. rust itself in the locked position on will NOT allow the tire to lower. After lowering the tire down approx. 2-4" the saftey lock is still engaged. I was able to reach above the tire and remove the bolt holding the hoist in place. {15 mm wrench}. Keep a floor jack under the tire to support it and as not to fall on your head. After removing the bolt the hoist is hooked on the frame member and must be lifted off to remove. Once you get it on the garage floor it is possible to disengage the locking mech. with a few tools and a big hammer. Good luck This should be a Recall

Does my 2007 Volvo XC90 have a keyhole for the tailgate? I cannot get the tailgate to open. This model has third row seat option.
Nope no key. Not sure how mechanical you are but the
inner panel has to be removed to get at the mechanism.
First though.... Try pushing in (forward) on the door at the same time you pull/hit the release lever. Give it a quick hard shove in. Some times that'll do it.
Best to you

I want to permanently remove the second row middle jump seat in my 2006 Volvo XC90 7 Passenger. What do I do to keep the seat belt and air bags working
You need to go to a Volvo dealer to plug their scanner to do that, or find a Volvo VIDA scanner and do it yourself, but if you've never done it before ( use VIDA Scanner) just go to a volvo dealer.

2005 Honda spare tire hoist cable lowers but tire doesn't. I'm thinking of removing the hoist to fix it or replace it. It appears that a metal plate between the top of the tire and mechanism is...
My experience is that the tire (being rubber) can stick to the underside of the vehicle. Try prying the tire with a piece of wood or broom handle to release it. Be careful as it may fall. Loosen the cable slightly to catch the spare and not fully drop. Good luck.

Can't get one of the third row seats will not go down. I have pushed in the Lower seat till I hear a click but the top will not go down. Any ideas
There is a small black plastic clip that proably broke off of the paret of the seat that you sit on. You can pull the release manually from the back of the cargo area. To get access you will have to remove the tire jack cover. The slide the "bottom" part of the seat partiallly in. Then there is a release device on each seat track. You have to pull each release at the same time, then push seat "back" forward slightly.

I have broker several of these, there are inexpensive to replace but break often.

I can't get the spare tire out of the rack? 2004 yukon
  • Rotate the hoist shaft counterclockwise in order to lower the spare tire to the ground. Continue to rotate the shaft until the spare tire can be pulled out from under the vehicle and removed. If the spare tire does not lower to the ground, the secondary latch is engaged causing the tire not to lower.
  • If the secondary latch is engaged and the cable end is visible, perform the following procedure: 3.1. Tighten the cable by rotating the hoist shaft clockwise until you hear 2 clicks or feel it skip twice. You cannot overtighten the cable. 3.2. Loosen the cable by rotating the hoist shaft counterclockwise 3 or 4 turns. 3.3. If the spare tire can be lowered, repeat steps 1 and 2 to see if the spare tire can be removed. 3.4. If the spare tire cannot be lowered, rotate the hoist shaft counterclockwise until approximately 15 cm (6 in) of cable is exposed. 3.5. Raise and support the vehicle. 3.6. Place a transmission jack, or equivalent, under the spare tire. 3.7. Position the center of the transmission jack under the secondary latch release button at the center of the spare tire. Arrange the arms of the transmission jack so they will support the tire after it has been released. 3.8. Raise the jack until the spare tire stops moving upward and is firmly held in place, releasing the secondary latch. 3.9. Lower the tire. If the spare tire is hanging by the cable, rotate the hoist shaft counterclockwise until the tire is low enough to remove.

    The cable for the spare tire on my 2006 1500 works fine (it's all the way down) but the retainer did not lower at all so I cannot pick up the spare tire. Can anyone help? Thanks
    1. Rotate the hoist shaft counterclockwise until approximately 15 cm (6 in) of cable (1) is exposed.
    2. While holding the latch pin (3), fully depress the latch button (2) and release the secondary latch from the hoist assembly. Some side-to-side and/or up-and-down movement may be necessary to disengage the latch mechanism.
    3. Continue rotating the hoist shaft counterclockwise in order to lower the hoist the rest of the way.
    4. If this does not release the secondary latch, the spare tire hoist will need to be replaced. See the following procedure.
    Important: If the spare tire hoist has been fully raised without a spare tire in place, the secondary latch mechanism may have become engaged. If this has occurred the hoist will not lower and the following steps will need to be followed:
