  1. This might be a stupid question, but is there any wa I can repair the clear coat peeling on the roof. hood, and trunk lid wthout having it repainted, by the way the car has 269,000 miles and purrs like a kitten. Lou
  2. OK< so just HOW DO I remove the REAR DOOR PANEL on a 93 ls400? It is way different than the pictures floating around of a 95 front door. All I want to do is replace the rear speakers.
  3. I got a set of 4 inch speakers and I was going to cut the speaker cover, (CAREFULLY) and install the new speakers that way as I have NO PATIENCE for clips and aligning door panels etc (YES I SAW THE PICTURES ON HOW DO REMOVE A DOOR PANEL) so If I cut the cover can I get to the speaker screws and r&r the speakers that way? And I was going to doit on the rear ones only so I would have at least some music as all 4 are blown. Yes, the woofer is ok.Thanks, Lou and I KNOW I made some of you cringe!
  4. THANKS PYTHON!. My mechsanic just left. I did the alternator. $156.00 at Kragen, and $100 labor. YES, I know he is cheap but good! I jst got back and ran AC full blast and now ALL symptoms are gone. Thank GOD! PS, my PS pump does leak but when I looked at the old ALT it was dry as a bone. Also, my baby has 188,000 miles so it must have been time. Thanks agian guys!
  5. ThaNKS. oN A SCALE OF 1-10 HOW HARD WOULD IT BE TI INSTALL AN alternator. How much is one and can I get one at autozone etc?
  6. [font="Comic Sans MS"]MY 1993 LS 400 story. 6 months ago I went to the car wash. It was hot so I was running AC with no problems. When I left the car wash I stopped at a store and the Battery was dead, and it was 5 mint. utes later.AAA had no clue and had to jump it. I drove a half mile and stopped and same thing. wouldnt start. I decide to turn the AC off and then it started fine from then on. Then after a few months when it got cold out my wife turned on the heater. Same thing as the AC.Battery dead. So I stopped using the heater. Started fine. a month later I accidentally pushed the seat heater on and sme problem. Now when I step on brake while IDLING ONLY, the radio crakles so I turned off radio and now the clock (at night) flashes. 1. I checked the trunk wires an I peeled away the black tape and all the wires are stilled sealed together (do I undo the sealed connetions) . 2. I know some of you will say alternator, BUT the car NEVER shuts down while driving so how can it be the alternator? PLEASE give me some help. I am not patient enough to tear the car apart. Th last car I worked on was a 1964 Pontiac when I was 18! THANKS! I love this forum. You are all so helpfull. Lou
  7. Radio crackles and goes out when Brake pedal is depressed ONLY while idleing! Goes back on when I step on gas! This happens only occasionally. HELP! :(
  8. Did not wash engine. It has been over a month, so I think everything is dry. If I use ac then when I park battery is dead. Radio is ok now so I am stumped? I will check for the sparks/arcing. What are the odds of it being the trunk wires?
  9. Thanks AL! It all started after I had it washed at a carwash and the first thing I noticed was the radio crackling after I drove off, then after I went to a store after the carwash the battery was dead, it was hot that day and I had the air on. everything was fine until the carwash!
  10. My 93 will DIE if I turn the ac on! iT RUNS fine while I drive with the ac on BUT battery goes dead and needs to be charged. IS this th compressor, the alternator or a short or?? Thanks
