Re: 850 heater fan quit again
Today I tried to remove the burnt female contact from the connector with no luck. The green plastic was crumbling and the contact getting bent. I forced the newest relay back on and got high fan speed again. Then I tried the next oldest relay but still no high fan speed. Now the working relay is sec...

Re: 850 heater fan quit again
Replaced the relay again over the weekend. It lasted less than 24 hours. It lost highest speed again.

Re: 850 heater fan quit again
Just finished replacing the heater fan relay again and have all 4 speeds once again. The relay I removed had a bubble on the side (nearest the engine). This is the same terminal that was toasted last year. Still would like a permanent fix. Any ideas? Thanks. Scott

Re: 850 heater fan quit again
I apologize for the awkwardly-worded rant which I should have checked before submitting. As it turned out, fan speeds 1,2, & 3 started working the next day leaving 4 the only dead one. I ordered 2 (1 spare) relays for the manual control but haven't installed them yet. Any ideas on what could be ...

850 heater fan quit again
See my posts from last Feb for backround. Replaced fan relay a few days ago because no high speed o the blower. Finished a/c shim wire tie fix and was testing it out for about 20 minutes only to find out that the fan had quit on all speeds! I'm getting pretty good at getting to and replacing the rel...

Re: Refurbish/rechrome the t-5r emblem?
Peanut butter helps remove adhesive residue from paint. Rub it on with your finger instead of eating it off a spoon. I combined it with WD-40.

Re: Broken 850 Seatbelt Release Buttons
Found a simple and cheap solution on ebay for $3.08 with free shipping. They are called 2PC Black Universal Car Safety Seat Belt Buckle Clip Adjust Extender (192045081830). If this hadn't been found, I would have tried the "land o lakes" route. Again, thanks for all the creative ideas. Hop...

Re: Broken 850 Seatbelt Release Buttons
Germs aren't a problem but stretched or decayed belts would be. Thinking about maybe gluing something on top of the red buttons before it's too far gone.

Broken 850 Seatbelt Release Buttons
Both front seatbelt release buttons on my 1994 850 wagon (9/93 build date) have 1/4 inch holes in the middle. It just turned 117K but the red plastic buttons are thin and brittle. Any suggestions on a fix other than swapping out from a P&P which leaves me a little squeamish? I'm afraid if I wait...
