Replacing Gas Struts 101 (Any lift gate, hood, or topper glass's) done on a 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan
The rules for replacing any gas struts on any vehicle is the same, measure the struts for your application, remove old struts by uncliping the ball socket ends of th struts, then snap the new struts in place. This job is super easy and wouldn't take 5 minutes with someone holding the hood, topper glass, or liftgate up!
For anyone else with a similar vehicle to mine for the liftgate struts, here is the link for them on Amazon!

Upgrading to an Auxito H4 L.E.D. H/L Bulb, Install/Comparison to OEM (Install on my 2012 Yamaha FZ1)

Toyota Avalon Fuel Door Won't Open Spring Hinge Replacement (Maybe a different P/N on other models!)
zhlédnutí 1,9KPřed 10 měsíci
After way longer than I care to admit I finally realized that the door itself didn't need to be replaced just the spring hinge. They're all over Ebay and local Toyota dealership sites and Sparksparts, but the best price I found actually came from a local dealership which I'll share the link for below but what you really need is just the part number. For my 2007 Toyota Avalon the part number is ...

Yamaha FZ1 Soundbomb Denali Full Install Includes Stock vs Soundbomb dB Results (Universal Fitment)!

Even though this horn has universal fitment for all vehicles and motorcycles, I install it specifically on my 2012 Yamaha FZ1 (Direct application for any 2006-2015 FZ1) and do a stock vs Soundbomb dB drag to see where they line up.

Hey hi brother In the 05 Toyota sequía I have to do it in the same pins?
2015 Camry it didn’t work for me. I have the push button to start so not sure if that matters
@jlk63 not sure but try it without pushing the brake pedal. My 07 Avalon is push start too and I'd guess it would need to be in the same "position" as the key on my Tacoma would (off-acc-on) mode ad in the video to compare.
WHY??? these motors are bullet proff... 55k on my 2012 and I ride the shit outa it seriously!! never an issue 12 years an this bike will do another 50k.. change the oil and ride it like you stole it !
@Rgb360-w4t apparently you're not part of any forums or FZ1 Facebook groups. The posts of detonated rotors in the FZ1 is constant. I ran polls in 2 FZ1 FB groups I admin and the results were inconsistent, meaning some rotors blew at 6k, 10k, 20k, 45k, even 60k+. Riding style didn't affect the numbers either, highway touring only or burnouts and wheelies. For peace of mine and the cost risk of replacing an engine vs the $150-200 it costs to replace the rotor, is up to each individual. You know why Yamaha redesigned the rotor in the 2015 FZ1? Cause they knew it was a problem. But I agree, other than the rotor, they're bulletproof. That's why I own an FZ1!!
Did you have to get that grille painted or did you find one that was actually the right color?
@blake.24 all "Sport" trims come with a painted to match grill. The 2011 Sport grill is the only one with the single horizontal bar and honeycomb pattern. Mine is a silver 2011 Sport. 😉
Hello can you tell me or share the link you purchased your part I ordered one but it doesn’t quite fit right. Ugh please help.

My 2015 corolla is stuck in only park and is giving me the light with the car and lines what do I do man please help
@bestadjusters no check engine light?
No just traction control light and stuck in park unless I bypass with the button by the shifter. Airbag and traction control is on
@@ShawnMartinNCBIRDMAN help brother! Thanks for the reply
Nothing has been changed on the vehicle recently? Sounds like a wheel speed sensor isn't working so the PCM is putting it in a limp mode to keep you from driving til you fix the issue. I would honestly disconnect the battery and see if it was a stuck log 1st, then have the wheel speeds sensors checked and lastly it could be the neutral safety switch.
@@ShawnMartinNCBIRDMAN so what I did was try to install a CarPlay radio and didn’t disconnect the battery so some fuses went out my friend changed a couple but we don’t know where the abs fuse is or if it’s blown, he kept saying to reset it with a OBD scanning tool and it would come out of being stuck. What do you think?
It nice but you did show video which 🕳 you put in and how you put in that pin.in out in the bottom
Did this work well?
Will this work on a 2012 Prius?
@pdxxjjeep good question but I don't know, you'd have to cross reference. I have seen other models using this same method.
Hi my name is Paul I have a Toyota hiace 2010 model yeah. if the vehicle was 60kmph the slip light came on what can I do plc
@paulmburu503 you might want to have the wheel speed sensors checked.
Thank you so much! Been using a straw bent in half to open it since we got our Avalon two years ago. I’m going to replace this asap!
@amandasolis6184 here's to the creative ways we've been coping!!
Nice job. I am gonna try it on a tundra
Thank you so much!
@dragonfire3194 you're most welcome!! Ride On!!
I didnt hear if you said but do i need to drain the engine oil to perform this?
No you don’t, it’s way above where the oil sits. Literally just came in from installing the new rotor!
@zosin8970 sorry CZcams hasn't been giving me notification updates for some reason I didn't see your post but @austin_DRVN is right. I did not drain the oil before or in this video the video starts right where I started.
@Austin_DRVN thank you for replying to that comment I missed it somehow!!
@@ShawnMartinNCBIRDMAN Np! Your video was super helpful! After startup for you was there a metallic noise for a few seconds? I did do an oil change and the bike sat for a week aswell so I thought maybe that might be it too.
@@Austin_DRVN thanks! No, no new or irregular noises. Could just be the parts being dry before the got oil tossed on em! Or from sitting before the top of the motor got lubed.
Do these work with the FZ1-N?
@mortomano4202 that's a good question but I'm not for sure Yamaha used the same bulb on the N. You may be able to check your bulb wiring connector to the bulb base Ibshow in my video and see if they match?
Awesome and useful video! My truck was driving me nuts with it wanting to go into the other lane when turning with 35s. I just did the reset so hopefully it will work for me as well haha. Thanks!
@nickstavrakis I hope so too! Took me a few times going around sharper corners not to tense up even after this fixed it!! Lol!!
Did you make a part 2 video for this brake controller?
@chuckisoutside I haven't had a chance to use it to haul anything on a trailer with brakes, which is supposed to be part 2. Sorry!!
❤
I just ordered the part. What’s funny is mine is on a 1999 Avalon. Apparently they used the same part on many models for many years. Hopefully tomorrow I’ll have mine. I’ve been using a package of tissues to prop up the release handle so I can go back and open the door.
@christopherluce3294 I wonder how many different ways this broken hinge has been temporarily remedied!! I prefer the push button karate kick to the jammed paper method! Lol
Going to be installing this today, but i am going to cut out the so called cup holders and put real drop in cup holders.
@stacky512a that's a great idea!
Hey have this same problem with my 2006 Toyota 4 runner. Whenever I take a hard right or left or even on the same turn you took in the mountains it does the same thing where it brakes while I turn. We tried to replace the entire front and back abs wiring system and that didn’t work. Been trying to figure it out. Will try this out to see if it fixes my problem. Any suggestions?
@chrisavent8012 someone else replied and said this worked for their 4Runner. Even if you asked a dealership to do the VSC reset for you, it would be worth it. Sucks all the suspension work was done. I guess it's all new now but maybe not needed.
@@ShawnMartinNCBIRDMAN we had it zero calibrated bc I have a 3 in lift but it still makes that noise and brakes when turning.
I just installed the kit on my 2015 FZ1. your video helped a ton with the install and the set-up. thanks a bunch!
@paulcolberg6388 heck yeah! It's nice to have. Would be great if they just came stock!
I have a 2009 that is fully uncorked and dyno tuned. It's scary fast.
@motorcyclemayhem595 I agree 100%!! Mine still has the cork and no tune and will always be head and shoulders beyond more able to rip than I am as a rider!
@@ShawnMartinNCBIRDMAN I actually just recently acquired the bike it sat for 9 years in a garage unused. The thing is this bike has different shorter gearing than the R1 so they had to retard the ignition from the factoy in 1,2 3rd gears.
@@MotorcycleMayhem595 that's cool! Hopefully the rubber, gaskets and seals didn't go bad! I swapped my front sprocket to a 16T and put in a PCV, it likes to get up and go even more than before!!
Holy commercials batman
Thanks for the vid, saw your review on Amazon which led me here and pulled the trigger on em. I've heard of Shogun and I like that they are made in the USA.
@bladeofwar that's awesome! Glad you found the video!
What's the reason for not showing the actual PIN connections with the jumper wire?
@jascam1 are you saying while I'm inserting it in during my count while I'm showing the dash so you can see what happens when the lights change their flashing?
Those are great, I'm running the same ones.
@carllucci2974 how long have you had them? Do you get any flashing from vehicles coming the other direction?
What happened to the before and after pics?
@donfinkey692 did I miss that?
I thought the front sprocket nut was 36mm?
@germanshepherdlover2613 I think I added a note in the description, 2008 and older gen 2's had a different size nut than mine. Totally random but true.
Who makes the cruise control
@robertwachala should have links and names in video description for easy access.
I like the simplicity of the this mod. Just curious, with this setup you state the fog lights work without the key and won't this drain your battery if they aren't manually turned off? I know at night it's easy enough to see, but what if you bump the button while cleaning the car during the day, you wouldn't necessarily notice them being on.
@mikeberecochea2020 yes you run the risk of leaving it on and running down the battery. The other option is to run the power for them off an ignition-switched power source so you could still have fogs anytime you want as long as the ignition is turned on, and still not reliant on the headlights being turned on (and not canceled out when high beams are turned on as well). It's a mixed bag just depends on how you want to do it!
Привет.подскажи упала демферная резинка ротора в двигатель,это критично?
@user-pc9it4tq3x there are some people who have dropped them if you can get a little grabber tool and pull it out from the opening it fell through that is best, otherwise you need to remove the exhaust and drop the pan to take it out. A borescope would be a great tool for finding it 1st.

@giopirmisashvili5514 you're welcome!
Where are the magnets? And what makes this rotor better than original?
@jamescollins-fi3no the magnets on any upgraded rotor are inside a metal sleeve so that they can't come undone from the epoxy like the original rotors do.
THANK YOU!!!! I've seen this solution before, but NO ONE would talk about WHY they were doing it!!! My 2014 was definitely FIGHTING ME on LEFT TURNS at 35-40MPH.... THANK YOU!!!!!!
@gomez619 I saw what you saw...people chasing phantom issues looking at faulty ABS systems and wheel speed sensors. YOU'RE WELCOME!!
This is exactly what my 2012 Tundra is doing. Do you know if this works on Tundra as well?
@cliffordebel2977 I am not aware if it does or not.
Did anyone find a good link to the correct switch or a different site? I am not finding the switch with all four auto up and down.
@stevent7944 not sure why CZcams didn't share your comment but carpartstrim has them in different color illumination if I'm correct. I shared that info in the description.
