Doesn't work.only works if its permanently on like your signal icon. If it's switched off.it will show last location when turned on.dit be year ago. Just kiss the phone good bye
By now the phon would have fast been transported to the north
Where an immediate buyer has been located and notified. As soon as it gets sold
The thief would dash into a nearby bar to take some cold beer and pepersoup

FamilyRe: Hisense 215dr Fridge Worst Product Ever by 2cribz: 10:48am On Apr 04
I think its called overload and relay. Its like a plastic stuff like t shaped. Check near thw compressor.its usually white or cream colour..disconnect it. Ppl that sell such ate people that sell ac?ac compressor...split ac..not new o. Used ones and na igbo get the business. Its around 1500 to 2k. Make sure u disconnect the follow come. It happened to my samsung after the idiot replaced the compressor my gen blew.suddenly after 2 days e begin dey ice for the pipes begin dey shut down. I called a quack.that one said it was the compressor. I just laff compressor wey never do 1 week after replacement. I took it out and replaced the useless relay and all. It started working normal. To sav yourself the stress..snap it and upload it on temu or aliexpress they will bringout the exact model tho it might be a bit pricey but its brandnew..
osic:
My hisense freezer just stopped working. It powers on, attempts to work normally ( by starting the normal humming sound). Then it stops after a few seconds. I checked online and deducted that I have to get 1 piece of QP2-4R7 3-pin PTC starter relay and 1 refrigerator overload protector model 6750C-005P.

The issue is that I don't know where to get it from so I can fix it myself or the price in local shops in Lagos.
I am closer to Ojo.

Don rush and start explaining things. Forst tel him to loose all the plugs nd check for cracks on the ceramic or if the pkugs have expired or worn out. If pkuga are good..ruled out. Next tell him to guage the oil or you remove the dipstick?clean and insert then reove and check for imtbe level if its low or guaged. Thirdly he ahoyld check if the oil pump and oil pump mesh filter screen under the oil sump is blocked or dirty.... if after that he should check the timing belts?pulleys,adjuster where the fan belt sits on timing chain..if after every ..then the engine don knock be that. Some of these meko dey place one or half inch screw Inside your engine crankcase when you are not there. It will now hook the pistons or valves and bend them and hence engine knocked. He ahud check where I told u too. Don't go there and be doing big man o . Make sure u r there.mke no be say na spark plugs.them go tell u say engine don knock.cos every meko eyes dey red now and dem go chop anyone.

Hi, everyone.

I’m really grateful for how anytime we come for advise here someone is always ready to assist.

I have come once again as regards a colleagues car which is to be fixed. It is a Toyota matrix.

The mechanic sent the following bill to us.

I want to know if the price is fair in view of the current market prices.


I’m also skeptical about the steering rack: I always hear things like when steering rack is faulty, it cannot be fixed

Also, gear oil for 45,000 naira. Is that not a fake gear oil.

I’ll be grateful for a requote.


Thank you so much.

Stfu cat gpt. Some car issues are very logical.
RyanAutomotive:
😂 My brother, instead of focusing so much energy on me, it might be better to focus on giving accurate solutions to people who genuinely need help with their cars.

Everyone here is free to share opinions, but when it comes to vehicles, incorrect advice can actually cause people to damage their cars or spend unnecessary money. That’s why some of us prefer to approach things from a proper diagnostic and professional standpoint.

I actually find it interesting how you and a few others keep mentioning me. No hard feelings though — it’s all love. ❤️

Just remember that when people search online for vehicle problems, they’re looking for practical solutions, not confusion. The goal should be helping car owners, not misleading them.

So let’s keep the discussion productive and helpful for readers.

As for me, I’ll focus on my work and continue expanding the workshop side of things. Wishing you the best.

RyanAutomotive:
Good afternoon sir.

Thank you for sharing your concern. Excessive fuel consumption on a Lexus ES330 should always be investigated properly, especially when the Check Engine Light has been on for a long time. Let’s address this step by step so you avoid unnecessary expenses and guesswork.



🔎 Professional Diagnostic Insight

Vehicle: Lexus ES330
Primary Complaint: Very high fuel consumption
Observation: Check Engine Light constantly ON

One very important rule with modern vehicles is this:

If the Check Engine Light is on, the engine management system has already detected a fault.
Until that fault is properly diagnosed and corrected, the vehicle will not operate at optimal fuel efficiency.

So the first concern here is not the tyre size — it is the active engine fault stored in the ECU.



1️⃣ Check Engine Light Must Be Scanned Properly

When a technician says “nothing is wrong” while the Check Engine Light is still on, it usually means one of two things:

• The vehicle was not scanned with a proper diagnostic tool, or
• The stored fault codes were not interpreted correctly

A professional scan should retrieve the exact fault code, such as:

• Oxygen sensor faults
• Air–fuel ratio sensor problems
• Catalytic converter efficiency issues
• Mass airflow sensor inaccuracies
• EVAP system leaks

Any of these can significantly increase fuel consumption.



2️⃣ Oxygen Sensor / Air–Fuel Ratio Sensor

On the Lexus ES330, one of the most common causes of excessive fuel consumption is a failing oxygen sensor or air–fuel ratio sensor.

When this sensor sends incorrect readings:

• The ECU injects more fuel than necessary
• Fuel mixture becomes too rich
• Fuel economy drops drastically

The engine may still sound smooth and show no smoke, which is why the issue can easily be overlooked.



3️⃣ Mass Airflow Sensor (MAF) Contamination

Another frequent cause is a dirty or failing Mass Airflow Sensor.

This sensor measures the amount of air entering the engine. If the readings are inaccurate:

• The ECU miscalculates fuel delivery
• Fuel consumption increases significantly

This fault may also trigger the Check Engine Light.



4️⃣ Tyre Size Consideration

You mentioned the vehicle is running on 17-inch tyres.

While larger tyres can slightly affect fuel economy due to increased rolling resistance, they will not cause extreme fuel consumption on their own.

So the tyre size is not likely the primary cause of your problem.



⚠️ Important Observation

Since the Check Engine Light has been on since you got the vehicle, it is possible that the issue has simply been ignored for a long time.

Modern Lexus engines rely heavily on sensor feedback for fuel control, so any faulty sensor can easily cause the vehicle to consume far more fuel than normal.



📌 What Should Be Done First

Before replacing any parts, the correct approach is:

1️⃣ Perform a full engine diagnostic scan
2️⃣ Retrieve the exact fault codes stored in the ECU
3️⃣ Analyze live data from sensors (O2 sensors, MAF, fuel trims)
4️⃣ Confirm whether the engine is running too rich or too lean

Only after this process can the correct repair be determined.



🎯 Professional Take

Your situation strongly suggests a sensor-related engine management issue, which is one of the most common reasons for excessive fuel consumption on this model.

The good news is that many of these problems are relatively straightforward to fix once the correct fault code is identified.

Guesswork or random part replacement should be avoided.



🏢 Ryan Automotive Limited Recommendation

The most important step now is a proper computerized diagnostic scan to retrieve the exact reason the Check Engine Light is on.

Once the stored fault code is identified, the repair can be targeted and cost-effective, instead of replacing parts unnecessarily.

If you are able to bring the vehicle down, Ryan Automotive Limited performs professional engine diagnostics and fuel system analysis to accurately determine the cause of excessive fuel consumption and restore proper performance.

Let me give u update. When u get to the camry?tell the meko to loose 2 of the spark plugs
They should be tan brown or close to white.. go to the exhaust?after you have on the car for like 10mins shut it down.use a white handkerchief and clean the exhaust tip. It should be less black with carbon. If its pute black..run...
Thirdly check the oil .it should be golden colour or mix of gold and less black. If its pure black..run. its clean tho not first body but from what i can see in the engine bay.rewire wirh meko never do justice .so price am max 4m if AC dey work. If ac no work.compressor with radiator nd condenser go colleft like 150k. Gas with workamnship ?flushing?go collect like 50k.i truly the pics is recent then u o get wahala. Try do live video make u see the current co dition of the car and body make dem no go dey send u old pics of when dem buy and register the car 2months after tokunbo o.
