AUTOFIX AUTO INFO IN PLAIN ENGLISH

THANK YOU FOR VISITING MY PAGE. IF YOU ARE HERE YOU PROBABLY OWN AN OLDER USED VEHICLE, AND YOU ARE ASKING YOURSELF, HOW DO I FIND OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY CAR?....... WELL MAYBE I CAN HELP.


ALTHOUGH I ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANYTHING, YOU OR SOMEONE ELSE MAY DO TO YOUR AUTOMOBILE AFTER READING FROM MY WEB PAGE. I WILL ATTEMPT TO EXPLAIN IN PLAIN ENGLISH, MOST OF THE DEVICES AND THEIR FUNCTION ON AN AUTOMOBILE.

AS MY SITE AND THE POPULARITY OF MY SITE GROWS.... I MAY LATER CREATE A WAY FOR DIRECT QUESTIONS TO BE ASKED.FOR INSTANCE YOU MIGHT ASK BY EMAIL.
I AM AN AUTO TECH. (OR A MECHANIC) WHICHEVER YOU PREFER WITH NEARLY TWENTY YEARS EXPERIENCE. I WORK A FORTY HOUR A WEEK JOB. IT MIGHT BE TOUGH TO ANSWER QUESTIONS. ALL WOULD NEED TO BE PATIENT FOR ANSWERS, AS I AM ALREADY A BUSY PERSON.
I HOPE MY SITE CAN HELP SOMEONE. IF YOU HAVE SOME MECHANICAL ABILITY, YOU MIGHT DO WELL. GOOD LUCK
REMEMBER THAT TRYING TO FIX YOUR CAR YOURSELF CAN BE AN EXPENSIVE UNDERTAKING. IF YOU DO SOMETHING WRONG, YOU COULD DAMAGE MORE THAN YOU CAN FIX. BE SURE YOU'R RIGHT BEFORE YOU BUY A PART YOU CAN'T TAKE BACK. ALWAYS SAVE RECIEPTS, AND IF YOU BUY YOUR PART FROM THE DEALER TELL THEM THAT YOU WORK FOR A LOCAL GARAGE.(BE PREPARED WITH THE NAME AND PHONE OF ONE ACROSS TOWN) THE DISCOUNT IS 10%-15%.
IF YOU DO BUY A PART AND YOU KNOW THE PART'S STORE WON'T TAKE IT BACK. JUST TELL THEM IT'S DEFECTIVE. YOU HAVE PURCHASED ANOTHER ONE ELSEWARE AND IT WORKED FINE.
MOST PART'S STORES OFFER THIRTY DAYS WITH RECIEPT ON ANYTHING BUT ELECTRICAL PARTS.

WHEN WORKING ON AN AUTOMOBILE ALWAYS REMEMBER SAFTEY FIRST. NO LOOSE JEWELRY OR CLOTHING. PULL BACK LONG HAIR. WHEN WORKING WITH JACKS SUPPORT THE AUTO WITH JACK STANDS APPROVED FOR THE WEIGHT. WEAR SAFETY GLASSES WHEN NECESSARY. WORKING ON AN AUTOMOBILE CAN BE DANGEROUS. BE CAREFUL. THE LIFE YOU SAVE COULD BE YOUR OWN.

A WIRING DIAGRAM FOR THE SPECIFIC AUTOMOBILE WILL ALWAYS BE HELPFUL IN DIAGNOSING ELECTRICAL PROBLEM.

WIRING DIAGRAMS FOR MOST CARS ARE AVAILABLE AT YOUR LOCAL LIBRARY
