    Lighting questions-IPF 930 relay and 4 pin switch pinouts

    I am finally getting around to wiring the IPF Super Rally 930s that have been on my LX450 forever. I've looked everywhere for a diagram for the 930s and their relay but have come up with nothing--is there any chance someone might have a PDF of how that relay is supposed to be wired? Also (in my...

    What caused our LX's 'senior moment' last night?

    Last night our son was driving our 1996 LX450 (stock) home from work, and the engine turned off while he was driving. He was able to safely pull off of the road, fortunately. I arrived at his location about 10 minutes later. Battery appeared to be fine, CEL lit up when key in Run position...

    why do people part out non-totaled vehicles?

    is it just because the parts are worth more than they could sell it for complete? example https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/parting-out-rust-free-white-gray-1997-80-series.850837/ seems like a shame, just my opinion.

    one possible cause of severe lack of power...

    A couple months ago my LX developed an occasional rattle underneath, it seemed to be more noticeable while warming up then would go away.

    reputable AC shop in N. or S. Charlotte?

    just over a year ago i had the engine rebuilt in my 80 series. When we put the engine back in, my engine guy noticed that the compressor made an awful noise just spinning the pulley. I bought a new AC compressor, dryer, etc. and vacuumed it out before putting it back into service. The AC...
