Scan the car if the "service engine soon" light appears on the dashboard (could be the coolant temperature switch), otherwise it could be a malfunctioning water pump.

It could be a miss function of the temperature needle

No crank or start should entail you scan first.

Read this link and tell your technician to follow the procedure

I'd also advice you put your transmission thru the various gear then attempt to start the ignition. You may have had your PRND switch misaligned.

Whats your vehicle model and year of manufacture?

1. Get the first fuel pump and all other parts that have been changed back.
2. Employ the services of a mechanic that does proper scanning and diagnosis. (state your location if you need recommendations)

This is accidental but it was only the door side that was affected, they damaged the grill at Lagos because they stole the key so they now used forklift to offload it

Re: Car Talk Chat Room by MUTEAU(m): 5:41pm On May 11, 2018
Pls I want to ask every member in this forum, are there no Nigeria good fairly used cars for like 300k here in this forum?

All the cars I see here is either 1m, 3m ,5m

Atleast you should post cars that an average man could afford, abi this forum na for only big men?

We need cheap cars, I think that's why most of us are here on this thread, just take for instant I have N5m and I want to buy a car, I won't come to this forum, I will rather walk into any car link to make my choice

Pls we need cars ranging from 250k - 350k

Thanks
