[QUOTE="Tombstones81, post: 1038232, member: 74875"] Well, it happened.... just like every single other vehicle ive ever bought... Within a week... something breaks to make it inoperable. Getting parts for the 01 & the 05 no longer wants to start. Stupid Theft light wont stop blinking everytime I try to crank it. No matter what I did or tried, it always came back on when trying to crank it. & I tried them all~!!! $110 towing cost later... back home Now to clean up the birds nest under the steering wheel~! Remote starter with 10X more wires then usual. Along with a stupid additional box & wiring to it to link your phone up to it~!! Removal videos showed usually less then 10 wires.... Im lucky if this thing is below 60 wires! Then....... GPS tracking device under there too but behind the driver side fuse panel~! The kind the buy here pay here places use to shut ur sh!t off remotely. So now I have to remove ALL of those wires & inspect & repair all the stock wiring. Then hope the Theft stops. If not, remove & inspect the ignition. If thats a problem... Replace that with a new one, new keys, & a programmer & be fucking Done with it!!! Got a sweet Steering knuckle & axle from the yard tho! Just waiting on the lower ball joint & tie rods from rockauto. Then the 01 gets fixed & see if the Reverse is still a problem. [/QUOTE]
