I guess it was just a case of low fluid, because I added some and the problem has gone away. I had always been told that with any sensored brake system, as the pads wore down, the fluid would drop an equal level. This meant that when the pads where ready to be changed, the light would go on. I was assuming this was true in all cases. Apparently it is not, or the shop that did my brakes last did not reset the level to the proper level. It was a Chevy dealer after all. (I bought it used, obviously) Thanks for the advise. Rick ------------------------------ From: 88biixlt fncool.com Date: Mon, 26 Jun 2000 15:31:19 GMT Subject: Urethane vs Rubber Its time to replace the body mount bushings on my '88 BII. What would be the Pros/Cons of switching from rubber to urethane? Also, while I'm at it, I'm probably going to stack an extra bushing on the tops of all of the mounts to lift the truck an inch or so... Does anyone see any problems with this? Thanks!!

Date: Mon, 26 Jun 2000 20:51:03 -0500 do we REALLY have to have them? ------------------------------ From: "Bobby Herring" Subject: 97 Explorer Window Motor Date: Mon, 26 Jun 2000 21:02:56 -0500 I have a 97 Explorer XLT with power windows and the one on the front passenger side has decided to stop working. I pulled the inside panel off and looked around but can't see any way to get the motor out. I removed a nut and one bolt but it still seemed to be very solid. There are two bolts that look like they are attached to the motor and I loosened these but still no luck. What is the trick to getting it out? Any chance of a loose wire? It wouldn't work from the passenger door controls about a week ago. I tried the driver side control and it started working from both controls. That was ok for a week and then it did it again. This time, it won't work from either control. No noise or grinding. Just the clicking of the switch. Any help or pointers to a web site with diagrams would be greatly appreciated.

If worse comes to worse we could always rob a bank :) But on a serious note, would it be possible to set a filter to remove 'old' advertisements that you find in replies? No matter how many times you ask it seems as though many people will not snip the junk. When you have a slow connection like mine, it's aggravating to download 10K of text to find a reply of "OK" in the message.

If you don't have or can't borrow a meter, you could make a simple test light from a 12 volt light bulb, such as a tail or marker light and two pieces of wire. You can even use the unburnt half of an old stop/tail light for this.
