Good morning great people,
Please, my car Toyota Camry 2007 XLE is acting up with incessant blast of its theft alarm system. The thing is becoming headache for me, it is just disturbing my environment.
How do I control this?

NB: It is not triggered by touch, vibration or noise. It will just start making noise on its own.

Do u know just like your engine, you AT has a cooling system. So just like u check ur engine cooling system if your engine overheats, do same for your transmission. Check if your transmission fluid is okay first of all.

The usual sir.
Getting a professional mechanic will be your best bet tho.
The car used to be a thief magnet, so review documents diligently.

Re: Car Talk Chat Room by dandollar1: 9:35am On Mar 28, 2018
Please, someone should explain to me how to get the radiator fan of my peugeot 206 back to factory settings.

I discovered that the fan was directly connected to power, so that once I put on the engine (ON ii position) the fan starts running and stays on permanently.

I took it to two electricians over the weekend and was told I should leave it that way, that I can't correct it. I'm thinking they didn't know how to go about it. The engine temperature hardly gets to 70degree, even after 20 mins of city driving.


Will be glad to get a step by step procedure, if possible, so I could guide someone to help me. Thank you all.

Hope its not a flood title if yes, check a box to regulate the alarm sensitivity and turn the dial down a bit.

In severe cases, bad ignition cables can make your engine stall. But scan your car first to confirm of it's truly the cables' fault

A 50naira fuse can cause stalling too, scaan the car and if the codes aren't related to ur issues then let the mechanic do his diagnosis and if he has been worthy before, then trust his opinion.

as for the brake issue, find a competent master brake individual to help check the leak whether the hose needs replacing or the whole system nd the sound seems like air in your brake system
Re: Car Talk Chat Room by etech: 10:45am On Apr 03, 2018
I have issues with my car AC( Nissan primeria 2003) after taking it to the AC tech, the guy checked said the compressor and dryer is bad, which he changed and did some services.

After that the AC worked well very, but the issue is that after a while it cuts off he checked the gas pressure said it is ok that i should check with a rewire that its electrical problem. the rewire checked and said we should connect the fan and ac direct instead of routing it through the thermostat which we did still my AC cuts of after a while and and too much touch touch will spoil the car.

something tells me that the compressor my AC tech got for me is the problem because the compressor in the car before the change is auto while the one he got is manual according to him it works better than auto compressor.

Please i need your help kindly advise me on what to do.

Many thanks.
