Honestly, as a 1998 GST owner, I think they have much more value than the current market will pay.
I think these are some of the sleekest, sexiest, quickest, best handling (with upgrades), fastest braking (with upgrades), excellent MPG (with proper tune), easiest cars to modify and repair, with...
Excellent! thank you for clarifying! That is a clear picture and it is helpful.
I'll take out the panel next weekend and clean the lock switches on the door also.
I bought an aftermarket key fob that is supposed to work with this receiver. I'll see if that works also...
My GSX came without...
Thanks for the tip!
But this is a very confusing sentence for me... could you clarify it by using 'driver side' and 'passenger side' instead of 'right' and 'left' side?
I'm lost... "left rear passenger side panel"???
Where is the keyless receiver located?:confused:
Please clarify,
thanks!
Ok, so after some research, and a little testing, I figured out the passenger window does not go UP because the master switch on the driver's side is not good. I took out the driver side switch, took it apart, cleaned all the copper connectors and relays, and put it back together. Now it works...
Can't get the headlights, power sun roof, power windows, or power door locks to work. Can't get the engine to crank over with the ignition switch.
All normal dash lights come on when key is turned 'on'.
Makes a single click noise when key is turned to start. One time, one click, then silence...
WOW! That looks terrible! I'm glad I opted for the 6 puck sprung disc instead...when technology is combined together for a 'best of both worlds' type of scenario, sometimes both things become lesser when combined together. Kinda like marriage. The end result is worse than before when they...
Wow that looks amazing!!! That transfer looks billet!
HOw much do I gotta fork over to get one of those Volk tube front ends...? NVM...I"ll look it up online...I don't even wanna ask what you paid for that transfer case...
I am having the same issue, and its also eating coolant now, and obvious signs like steam train exhaust...but I am going to try the method of gassing the pedal while the coolant cap is off just for kicks...to see if it pressurizes and sprays all over the engine compartment. Its only full of...
You know, I just don't really like the front bumper and OEM headlight design of the 1995/1996 Eclipses...I had one, I bought one brand new in 1995, but I saw the later years 2GB and I always thought they looked much better... so now, I have two 2GBs, and I want to use the front 2GA foglights as...
Adding the FINAL LINK to my custom FMIC that allows me to keep the OEM foglights, on an AUTOMATIC GSX!!! The charge pipe runs just between the auto trans dipstick and the thermostat housing!! YAAY!! Can't find this ONLINE anywhere...gotta make it yourself!
OK, I SEE IT!!! Definitely not OEM LOL....I'll trace it back into the dash and see where it goes...I already have a factory service manual for this car, I just don't know how to read it very well...I will spend some time checking wire colors and see where the black and green ones go...maybe...
Sure, I'll try it, but I won't be able to until next weekend...and I think I need to trace those wires up by the front ABS box and see what they are connected to...the black/red wires I don't think are OEM...its strange...
OK, well I didn't make much progress this weekend. I messed with the car Saturday, and I think I discovered the little black box ABS in front of the driver side wheel, but I can't figure out why it still won't start or even headlights, door locks, windows don't work.I tried the jumper thing...
It's in my profile, 1997 GSX Auto.Not sure about these dangling wires but there's a little box right behind the driver's side headlights and in front of the driver side front wheel and I don't know if it's part of the alarm system or what. They come from under the fender. I really think this...
Well, the truth be told, I don't really know how long it was sitting. It might have been a couple months or a couple years I really don't know. However I am trying to get it back to life and if you have any suggestions about this little box in front of the driver side front wheel, cuz it seems...
The ignition switch worked fine before and I'm not sure how it would just go bad in a few months without driving it. I also see on the driver side in front of the wheel this box with all these wires that are disconnected...see photo
I'm working on the car today. I did the jumper thing behind the stereo with the red and black to the yellow black wire and still nothing. No start. Also, the headlights don't work, and the fan does not come on with the key in the run position. I have checked resistance from the disconnected...
Thanks, but my hair is already gone. It fell out years ago LOL
I am sure my battery is NOT the issue. I have tried 3 different batteries that all work fine in my other cars. There is NO continuous clicking sound.I only hear ONE click under the dash somewhere. The engine just won't turn...
I have changed the window switches with some known good ones from my other DSM, and still the windows don't work. I always turn the ignition switch to ON when I test the windows. Is there a relay somewhere in the center console for the doors and windows?? Security system lockout or something??
Very nice! I like how he says in the video, "these little bastards" haha...I'll check it out this weekend, see if it works. Still don't know why the windows and door locks won't work...
Ok, you are right, but I don't have that kind of battery tester. Can I do a load test with my multi-meter? I really suck at electrical but honestly, this same battery cranks my truck over really fast. Its a good battery, so I'm not thinking that's the issue.
I have tested all the fuses in this block with my continuity meter and they are all ok. The relays, however, I have not been able to check. Not sure how to do that...they are different than the fuses.When I try to start the car, all I hear is one single click, but not like a dead battery...
So I need to disconnect the negative terminal from the battery, and use that for my black multimeter lead touching to the negative battery terminal, and touch my red mulitmeter lead to various parts of the engine, and the resistance (ohms) should read 0?And if it reads higher, then it is a...
Ok, thanks for the replies!I know the ground from back on intake manifold to firewall is in place, and secure, not rusted.
I have checked all the fuses, and they are fine.
I will have to pull the starter in order to test it this weekend perhaps. I do have an electrical meter, can test...
I'm not good with electrical stuff. I'm having a couple issues trying to bring my GSX back to life.All the dash lights come on, but it won't crank over. I could knock on the starter and see if its frozen, been sitting a few years, but at least the power windows and door locks should work?Is...
Well I don't have factory remote for either of my 2G cars...I wonder if I got one of these if it would just work immediately from the package, or if it needs to be programmed specifically to my car thru a sync method like a garage door opener...any idea?
So this will work with any 2G Eclipse? I'm not sure I get it. Aren't the factory fobs all programmed on a different frequency like a garage door opener so you can't just open anyone's car with it??? Is this one programmable?
YES!!! I have the CX tubular manifold and the CX 16g on my GST and that tubular manifold gets hot and warps at high temp, and it kept pulling and loosening the nuts, and even stripped a stud off my head, now its got an exhaust leak and I have to take off the head to a machine shop to drill out...
Some necessary things in order to get her running...I changed the throttle body from a '97 to a '99 with the newer black ISP and replaced one long stud that was broken. I installed a new intake elbow also. Up next is fabrication of a custom intake pipe with a TIAL flange for an automatic...
UMMMM like a dumbass, I tried this once without a relay trying to use my A/C switch to turn on a manual fan on the radiator lol and it sparked and fried my A/C switch in about 1.5 seconds. So it didn't work, and now my A/C button is useless and dead.Make sure you know what you're doing...
Thanks for your votes, seems everyone agreed...it was a no brainer! I made the trade Saturday! Now I have to spend a few weekends getting the intercooler piping, radiator, and wiring harness completed... it is a fair trade because he also has to work on the motorcycle a little but he was...
Haha yep he was 72, had it for 12 years, and gave up trying to ride in that position lol ..I bought my GST in non running condition during the covid lockdowns and spent some time on it, replaced a lot of parts and got it running good...drove it to work and all around for two years but it...
I recently bought a really good condition K5 Suzuki GSXR600 that just needed a battery, chain and fuel system cleaning. It was owned by a 72 year old man who babied it. He finally gave up trying to ride in that cramped sportbike position and sold it after it sat for a few years. It has 20k...
I did nothing to my DSM today...!Its sitting on the street, being constantly ticketed by the parking enforcement and street sweepers... :( :idontknow:It needs a head gasket replaced, and rings are worn, and turbo seals are shot... :( OMGI will be replacing the motor soon! I have it...
Yeah, already 'invested' in a relationship...it lasted 4 years. Worst thing was, she told me to sell my original red GST and my motorcycle when we got married, and buy a family SUV... In retrospect, I should have kept my toys because they would have lasted much longer than our marriage lol...
I went to the local LKQ pick your parts auto wrecking yard, and actually found a couple 2g Eclipses there.... I spent a few hours, got sunburned, and picked a spare passenger windshield, door trim, electric window/door switch, both outer door handles, a brand new OEM water pump still in box...
All the money and time spent in rebuilding and restoring a 2G turbo is pure joy, much more than other things... the Eclipses are so much more meaningful to own when you've done all the work yourself, put your love into it, and the time spent working on it keeps you out of other things that can...
This kinda sh*t happens every night in Hawthorne Blvd in front of my apartment after midnight...they still think it's Fast & the Furious here...those a**hole street racers have wrecked two of my Civic EG hatchbacks and completely totaled my blue ultra modded Civic Ex turbo parked on the side of...
