TOP IS STUCK AND WILL NOT MOVE UP OR DOWN . WAS WORKING GOOD WHILE INSTALLING TOP BUT JUST SHUT DOWN

Take the drive motor for this window out. push the glass to the top. if it will not move, the window is stuck in the track or it is out of the track, if this is the problem, re-install the window inside the track. check both tracks to make sure one is not loose, causing a bind. if this is the case, tighten the track and retry the window, up and down. be sure to keep your hand under the window to avoid it slamming down causing a possible break. push the window to the top. it is best if you have someone hold it in place. re-install the motor and try the window out. if it works then you have fixed the problem, (try it several times to be sure it will stay fixed) if it jams again, i would say you have a bad motor. you might also check the switch to be sure it is operating properly. this is best checked with a multimeter if you have one, or know someone who does, and if you know how to use it. right now i am betting on the window being partially out of the track. good luck and i hope this solves your problem.

spray wd-40 or any good lube into hood latch. find the arm inside the hood latch the cable connects to and manually move it towards the cable (long flat tip screwdriver works well). Your hood should shut now. may have to move back and forth several time to free up

The float in the brake resevoir appears to be stuck at the low fluid level. Try taking off the cap and moving the float to seeit taht works

You are going to have to take the door panel off and see what is wrong.

Before anything you have to make sure the lever in the trunck is in the correct position. Assuming it is...

...does the top start to open or it doens't even move? Does the hatch where the top goes into start to open? If so, stop the top after you see that the hatch has completely opened, then manually push that piece down. Be carefull not to get stuck and make sure nobody is operating the top while you're attempting this so you don't get your arm stuck there for any reason.

You could also try to access it from the truck and pull it down manually. I may just snap back into place and the problem will go away. On my car, one of the sides was stuck UP and the other was working. Once it snapped back into place it works every time.

The water temp (coolant temp) is cold all the time? Thermostat stuck open. Replace, not good for car. Computer can't adjust well to that and will cause fuel economy issues, never allow car to warm up properly. Opposite of thermostat stuck shut causing overheating. If the water can't be restricted enought to heat up and then be maintained at the correct temperature your car is not operating efficiently, won't pass smog I'd assume, etc. Thermostat is at end of upper radiator hose in thermostat housing. Two bolts to remove. Pop out thermostat and see if its stuck open. It'll have a gap if it is and it will be shut if not. You can boil water vigorously and hang your thermostat in it with a wire or something and watch it. It should move open from closed at a noticeable rate. When removed after fully opening, it will close as it cools. If it doesn't move and is stuck or moves EXTREMELY slowly it's done. Replace gasket, replace thermostat, light coat of sealant on gasket if you wish and torque down evenly. Replace lost coolant. Hope this helps.

no. the drivers switch is the MASTER switch and not like the others. if the window goes up but not down, most likely the switch. get inside the car and open the door, as you are holing the window switch down, slam the door shut a few times, sometimes this will "jar" the window motor loose if it is stuck. if it works ok now, the window motor is jamming and will need replacement. another trick is to carefully watch the dome light as you are working the switch, if you push the switch down, and the dome light dims "slightly", the switch is good and the motor is stuck.

ck on top of the steering column where yje pedals are. The switch should be there. See if the control rod that actuates the switch is nit hung up or the swithch hasn't come loose.. good luck

How do you know it is stuck open your heat must move temp around a lot these usual jam shut! open is if you have installed one that made to jam open intentionally!!!!!!!sounds like you should pick up a service manual at part store good investment!
