Easy Ford C-Max LED Headlight and High-Beam Replacement
Thank you for your video. The High LED Beams that I bought did not have that adaptor for me.
Thanks for this video! However, on my 2014 Yaris, the old brake shoe with the emergency brake connection does not have a pin with a cotter pin but a rivet instead. Any idea of where I can buy the pin which is not included in the kit? Or any idea to work around that encounter?
What “somebody” needs to do is build a powerful lint-vacuum with multiple hose attachments for all types of dry vents . I have a flat hose that is supposed to be universal but doesn’t work with my powerful shop-vac because my shop-vac connection is much larger than the universal connection. I’m too old to be rummaging inside a dryer and my fingers are not as dextrous as they used to be. 😢 I love this machine, but manufacturers really need to rethink dryer vents and cleaning.
Thanks, Dan! This review is very helpful and very true. After i saw this video, i bought 3 of these bikes. They are perfect! It helps me get to work quicker, and its very fun to ride. Thanks for the 10% Coupon too! I paid around 350-360 dollars for a bike! At the end, me and my friends love our new bikes. Once again thanks!
Great video. Will be replacing my Yaris brakes very soon thanks to your video.
Thank You🌸
Have a question, I bought led lights, but it's a bit longer and wider therefore I cannot put the cap back on, what do I do in that situation?
That’s a tough one. You could cut out the back just enough to allow it to stick out, but you don’t want dust/debris/bugs getting into the lense body showing up inside.
I unscrewed everything and it still wouldn’t budge. Then I was too afraid I’d mess something up and gave up & put it back together 😕
Must be really stuck! You also don’t wanna go breaking plastic tabs off either, I get it. Perhaps you could try one of the lint removal brushes that are long and skinny. Be sure to check out the exhaust tube and outdoor vent to make sure those are clear. Those are what will clog up first and pose the biggest risk.
buy a drill ding ding it will save you alot of time
Agreed, but I like to demonstrate things with the simplest too possible for those who don’t have better ones. Same reason I don’t use air tools on camera working on cars.
why'd i try and scroll up when he stuck his head in the dryer????
That’s so funny! I was thinking that at one point myself. Wish the camera could have been a bit wider, but it was already in the back of the drum…. Thanks for the fun comment! 😊
Thank you for your video, I was having trouble finding the bulbs; The Local Auto Parts Store wasn't very helpful either.
How did you removed door panel ?? Chrome I’ve been trying but it’s hard lol I did w the front but missing my door 😢
Pull out from the bottom to release button clips. There is a screw in the Dior handle and one behind the door pull as well. You have to remove a life of trim. Watch my video on installing speakers in the front to see how to get in there.
We need a comparison of before and after!
Yah, sorry about not getting a proper ‘before’ shot but trust me the color clarity difference and increase in brightness make it totally worth it.
@@DansWay I'll take your word for it. How much did you spend on the LED lights?
What is the make and model of your vacuum cleaner? It looks good, compact and easy to clean. Thanks!
Yah, we really like ours. The description above includes the link to the one we have.
I just put cheese cloth over my lint screen and then shake it when I'm done drying. A lot easier 👍🏼
Wow Thanx
Don’t fool yourself. These led will only fix the appearance! And you barely will see anything on the dark road
I hear you, but that is most definitely not my experience with multiple vehicles I’ve installed these LEDs into. They substantially improve the clarity by being a whiter light, and the high beams shine substantially further down the road than the standard incandescent bulbs.
@@DansWay not telling about these bulbs , but my friend got not cheap leds from amazon with good reviews for his fusion 2015 and failed a simple test. we just put the cars against the wall after the sundown and in comparison to even c-max 2013 factory bulbs his leds were nothing. and comparing to BMW 528 2009 the c max headlights were nothing. as u get it we can compare that BMW headlights to a modern car and the result will be even better. briefly, those leds change were the worst bulbs I've ever seen :)
@@Alex-gn6xb Gotcha. Yah, there are a lot of options out there. That is why I have stuck with Auxito because they warantee their parts to last, and the quality has been excellent. I haven't had problems with the 5+ sets of headlights I've installed.
Bullshit
Not sure I understand your comment...?
This was super helpful. I noticed that you didn't hook up the blue (brake) wire. How would you handle that one?
The blue wire would go to a wired under-dash brake controller. The Prodigy controller handles that directly on the trailer. The trailer harness plugs into the frame-mounted Prodigy, then a separate connector goes to the tow vehicle. So for this wireless installation the blue wire doesn't go anywhere. Make sense?
I have media 7.5 electric dryer my clean filter light came on help
Sooo helpful! Thank you!!
Thanks for the comment! Did you get this done?
No safety glasses when removing springs?
Thank you. I just saw this in another video but you go in greater detail. So, thank you.
Used this approach today on my mother-in-law's Maytag 3000 series dryer that is over 10 years old and suddenly had a burning smell which I figured for a belt or motor. Nope. 2 cubic feet of lint later, and it is working like a champ. Thanks!
Wow, 2ft? Where else did you find that much material?
Thank you for making this video! Never deep cleaned a lint trap before, and now feeling confident I can go clean mine.
The wind noise is SOOO wonderful in my headphones.
Isn’t the screw head 8mm metric? Wobble socket for the angle
Can you help please, my right side mirror isn't folding automaticly, only the right one?
Are you saying you replaced your broke one, or that your mirror stopped folding and you need help to get it moving again?
@@DansWay Stopped working and need help to get it moving again. Thanks
Brand new trailer ac defective.
Considering the amount of lint you vacuumed out of the trap alone, I would think that there was MORE inside the machine itself. That being said, I think removing the bulkhead and vacuuming the inside of the dryer as well as the exhaust tube would be worth the extra effort. 😎
Good thought, but the lint found inside the houseing (the intake of the air blower) would only be from the environment. So for me it would be more like dusty debris...
Great video, thank you!
Other ways painting the back side of the panel with a rubber or plastic paint with squares of weather proof batting … using a little RF tape to block wire noise is always a plus
Thanks for making this video!
Danke für das Video, gut erklärt👍 morgen werde ich auch an mein Yaris (2009) die Bremsbacken erneuern. 😊
Great, let me know how it turns out.
i need one of these scanners.. what stores sells it
The description includes the following link: geni.us/ODB_Scanner_WIFI
@@DansWay thanks
Good job sir
Does the miles change or stay the same
The LEDs I’m replacing here don’t change the mileage. Changing the whole cluster will definitely change mileage however.
Everything is fine, but the fact that you didn't clean the system base well, that for me is unacceptable......😢😢😢😢
Hi Dan, thanks for making this video! I am ready to buy the LED Auxito bulbs for my 2016 Civic. Can you confirm that you used the Y19 series bulb for the high beams?
So the trailer get's power from the car battery whether the car is ON of OFF? That doesn't seem right? Thanks for the video. We have a 2008 Highlander with the towing package and I'm trying to figure all this out.
My friend gave me his Jet filtration just like yours. Had it in the garage for couple years and finally took it for a run.... Mine does nothing no lights or anything. The capacitor is bulging slightly like you showed yours. I had just shown my son that same bulging just priort to finding your gem of a video. Thanks for posting! If I am not getting any lights whatsoever but do have 120 power past the fuse then I have another issue than just the capacitor right? Power supply too maybe? Well I ordered the parts and will see.. thanks so much for posting... amazing how i watched this after doing the exact same disassembly of mine! Internet is amazing. Will let you know the outcome! Thanks again!
Thanks for the comments. Let me know how it turns out. If that cap is totally gone, perhaps you will get no lights, but it could be a bad power supply as well. Will be interesting to find out what you find.
@@DansWay- well Dan kinda like I expected replacing the one barrel capacitor didn’t do anything. The old one was definitely bad. Now I’m trying to source the more rectangular orange capacitor that’s next to the barrel capacitor. I think that’s another thing that can go bad. I hope the motor up directly and it runs fine, so it’s definitely the circuit board. Any ideas? I feel like since there’s no lights whatsoever on the LEDs. There’s some issue with the power supply. Validated power is past the in-line fuse so the board is getting power. Other than the capacitors, I’m not really sure what else could’ve failed on the board. The motor capacitor is good as well any ideas would be appreciated
Next up would be the controller IC would be my next guess...
@@DansWay - not sure what that is. Is that a replaceable item but much more difficult than a capacitor?
@@DansWay- well bought a standard 3 position rotary switch for 10 bucks. Wired directly and mount just to the left of the control board. Works great! Did your unit have 4 styrofoam squares in the interior? Mine did. Inside of sealed plastic covers. Guess it’s trying to reduce the volume inside the box?? Thought it was a little strange
I guess on a 2013 the caliper doesn't rotate to give access to change the pads when you only remove the top 14mm pin. I have to remove the whole caliper via the 19mm pins.
Good job Dad for teaching your girl how to do this! And MeeToo!
Thanks for watching and teaching your Daughter as well!
I love my C-Max but it's just the most difficult car ever to work on.
The right turn started to blink very fast, didn't pay much attention to it but now, had to jumpstart the car twice now. Is it possible the fast blinking is what is causing the car not to start? Could it be affecting the battery?
There really shouldn't be a link between these two things unless you are leaving the hazards on long-term. The light and wires only get power when you activate the turn signal.
Thank you 👍 now I need to find a video of the 2013 KIA Sportage.
Sure! Let me know what the differences are... I haven't worked on one of those yet.
I have a 2015, your sportage having jumpiness on acceleration that comes and goes?
Quite possibly a fire hazard, that the majority of us are living with , and not being aware of . Think it would be a good idea if when you pay appliance insurance this should be part of a service agreement, or made easier to be able to get to yourself . Heath and safety in your home , and especially if you live in high rise apartments, doesn’t bare thinking about . I thank you that I am now very aware of this hazard so grateful.
Great video. Really helped me out. ❤
Glad it was helpful! Did you replace all the caps?
Yes I did
Thank you so much
You are very welcome!
Sucked for me because I had to slightly move the alternator to give me enough space to come out with the fuel rail
Ah man, bummer.
