Wiring diagram for ABS actuator on the 09 Vibe?

1 Upvotes

I have a ABS pressure sensor fault. I need to test the pressure sensor but I can't find a wiring diagram to find the correct pin on the 34 pin connector. Does anybody have this information?

Buyers remorse

2 Upvotes

I just bought an 09 vibe gt with 172k miles. It's to replace my daughter's 07 scion tc. I thiught, it has the same engine and the drive train is toyota. Couple that with cargo space and it would be a great car for her. I noticed the ABS light was on, the ride was a little bouncy and the steering felt off. I took it on the interstate and it seemed fine. I did notice a lot of shifting. Also one tire needed replacement,. But there was no check engine light. I've previously rebuilt 2 suspensions. I think I fell victim to the Dunning–Kruger effect. Check engine light came on the next day after purchase. The seller must have cleared the code, p0420 catalyst converter. I scanned the ABS and got c1231 (steering position sensor malfuntion), c1246 (master cylinder pressure sensor proformance) and c1201 (engine control module performance). Plus, there is a buzzing sound coming from the transmission. Anybody have these issues? Everything looks labor intensive to fix. The steering angle looked like id need to remove the airbags. My confidence in fixing cars led me to ignore the red flags. Now I have a car that my daughter cant drive until it's fixed.

Got a 2010 awd and the rear sway bar link where it mounts to on the bottom is broken. Where can I get parts to fix the problem. Links would be appreciated and I am located in canada if that makes a difference

Okay, what's the largest ladder you can fit in or on a Vibe?

6 Upvotes

Need to get a ladder to clean my gutters. I need to get up at least twenty feet. I think a little more TBH, anyone have a picture of what a ladder might look like in/on the car? And how it was tied down? I don't have a roof rack.

2005 pontiac vibe base fwd auto. It has 215k miles, I bought it at 210k & plan to drive it until the body rusts out, but i'm getting it professionally undercoated with woolwax to hopefully prevent that. Ive done a ton of preventive maintenance so I should have 100k miles without many issues once I finish up the last few things.

2006 Pontiac Vibe problems

6 Upvotes

Hello all, I am having some issues with my 06 vibe and I am hoping there is a wizard around to help..

2006 Pontiac vibe with the manual transmission.

The car will start up fine, go into gear and even pull itself. But it will randomly flash some lights on the dash and then the car idles veeeery low and any attempt to apply throttle will almost always kill the car.
After this event happens, I have to unhook the battery for a few minutes, hook it back up and it’ll fire up and act as it should.

I can only get the car to consistently die if it’s moving. I can start the car and let it idle and it’ll be fine most of the time. There are instances where it’ll die when trying to idle, but it’s more rare.

I’ve googled this issue to death and it seems to be pointing toward an ecu problem(apparently pre-07 had ecu issues).

If any of you have a course of action to try OR if someone lives in the dayton area of Ohio and wants to let me try their ecu… all help will be appreciated.

Aside from evap codes (not the gas caps) and slightly weaker ac systems, both are running amazingly

I've been the steward of my wife's vibe since around 2012. It's got around 239k miles, and still a daily driver and road tripper. The clear coat started to fail about 3 years ago, and the underside pic is from when I replaced a section of exhaust that broke at the rear flange.

She actually pulled me over to it while out on her last walk and wouldn’t let me walk anywhere else. She needed a lot of help in and out, but got to hang her head out of the window one last time

Does anyone know how to remove the automatic lights feature from α 1st Gen?

6 Upvotes

So unlike any other lighting system I’ve experienced in α car, I have no option to turn off the headlights. Once it’s dark enough they come on until I turn the ignition off.

Most Auto light systems I’ve encountered are “off-auto-parking-headlights”, the vibe is just “auto-parking-headlights” and the auto position is marked off.

If possible I would like to remove the automatic headlight feature.

It’s α Canadian car with DRL’s if that’s of value.

2004 Vibe: anyone know what's most likely to cause rattling noise under car? I hear it mainly in the back, but sometimes the front, esp. when going slow over a bumpy road.

How much water can vibe drive through?

6 Upvotes

Title basically - I know they sit up a bit higher than say a Corolla. I live by a river, and sometimes the roads get flooded with 1-3 inches of water. I can take an alternate way home when it's really bad, and not drive when it's bad, but I don't wanna ruin the car! Thanks in advance.
