How do you change a fan belt on a 2000 Isuzu rodeo?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I believe that you have the VG30 engine, if this is true you have to remove all of the belts and to do that you must find all of the adjuster screws for the accessories that are attached to the appropiate belts and lossen the pivot bolts. once all other belts are removed you can begin replacing. my advice is to replace all the belts while you are there and save your self from the hassle of this again.

How do you change the brake light to a 2002 Isuzu Rodeo?

Asked by Wiki User

I had the same problem with my 2001 I looked closer and found there are screws that are hidden real well that have to be removed first,then the light just pops out. Good Luck There were two screws on the outside of the light hidden in the trim, and one screw underneath. After that the light came off and simply tightening the bulb made it burn again.

How do you replace the headlamps on a 2000 Isuzu Rodeo?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

First pull the wiring connector from the back of the headlamp assembly. Then remove the gasket around the back of the headlamp out using the two pull tabs on the top and bottom. After that, you have to push down a thin metal clip to unhook the lamp. Once unhooked just replace the lamp and reassemble!

There is no overdrive, per se, but a mode switch called "Power Mode" that doubles as an overdrive, allowing more RPMs per gear.

Where is the fuel pump in a 1995 Isuzu Rodeo?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I just recently changed my fuel filter by myself in about 20 minutes. The filter is located right in front of the gas tank under the driver's side doors. First clamp a vise grip tight enough to pinch the lines on both sides of the filter. Then use a pliers to compress the hose clamps then slide the clamps about 3 inches away from filter. If your replacing the factory filter it will take a little effort to break it loose. Pull the rubber lines off the old filter - gas will leak from the filter. Put in new filter then move the clamps back onto the filter, then remove your vise grips. Start your Rodeo up and let it run for a minute then check for leaks. Do not over tighten the vise grips on the fuel lines cause you may cut the line.

How do you add freon to 2000 Isuzu Rodeo?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Buy a kit at Wal-Mart or auto parts comes with instructions You shouldn't...freon in your car is under high pressure and takes special equipment to do properly. In addition, today's cars require a very specific quantity of freon to work properly. Too much will result in high internal pressures and heat, too little will prevent proper lubrication...both of these conditions will lead to an early death of the compressor and a very expensive repair. There is an organization where you can get more info, and I have help in locating good mechanics on my site. See the related links for more info. Hope this helps!

Why would the check engine light come on after filling the gas tank on a 2000 Isuzu Rodeo?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

First, reset the computer by disconnecting the negative battery cable for a couple of minutes then reconnect. If the CHECK ENGINE light still comes on, check the gas cap and make sure it is tight. Due to emission rules (OBDII), the computer checks to make sure the gas cap seals the gas tank. You might have to replace the gas cap.

How do you fold down the back seats in a 2000 Isuzu Rodeo?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I have a 95 blazer and the passenger side back seat has more than once refused to go down.

There is a thin cable inside the back of the seat and is supposed to hook and secure by means of a small ball at the end of the cable into a slot on the back of the seat located under the latch that you pull on to lower the seat. The cable slips down inside of the back - but unfortunately I haven't figured out how to get to it - except to take it to a dealer - which I don't do anymore.

You will probably have to remove the seat back cover. It is close at the bottom with a "J and arrow" or two j-straps. I would begin by taking those apart (use a screwdriver to help). See if you can feel around and figure out the problem. It you have to take the trim completely off you will need to remove the headrests. Good luck.

In some cases the seat will get jammed and you have to push the seat back then pull the handle

How do you replace dashboard lights in a 1995 Isuzu Rodeo?

1996 GL, yes. Over by the headlight switch, you can pop the plate out and move right. take out screws in the dash, most located in the vents. pop the fount of the dash out and then above the gauges you will see the lights, remove by turning the bulbs. have fun getting the dash apart!!

How do you check engine codes on a 1995 Isuzu Rodeo?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You need to either possess a code reader and plug it into the port under the dash on the drivers side, or take it to the dealer who will read it for a fee, or a parts store who will read it for free. Then using that information you can cross the numerical code to a fault reason and figure out what needs to be repaired from there.

Why would a car make a gurgling sound like water sloshing around when accelerating?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Check the condenser drain line. You will find that it is stopped up and water cannot drain out. Look under the car, usually on the passenger side near the firewall. Use a blunt tool like a pencil to unclog the line.

In my case, the coolant overflow line was clogged. It is in manifold underneath the radiator cap, where thin tube is connected. As secondary problem to it, the coolant was leaking from the cap because of over-pressure.

How do you replace the brake light - tail light bulb in a 1989-2002 Isuzu Rodeo or Honda Passport?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Some help

there is a screw located between the bumper and the vehicle you must use a long Phillips to get to it, most likely the plug is loose that is the problem I had.

How to remove a tail light

There are actually 3 screws you need to loosen on a 1999 Isuzu Rodeo. At least there are on the LSE model. One of them is located between the bumper the tail light, and as stated before you will need a long Phillips head screwdriver to remove the screw. The other two are located along the side of the taillight inside the little black things that look like air vents. Once you remove all of the screws, slide the taillight straight back. Try not to shake it out of place or a small black plastic rod will break. If the plastic rod does break it will not harm the vehicle or affect the operation of the taillight. Then remove the corresponding bulb by turning the bracket counter clockwise and pulling the bulb out. The correct bulb number for a 1999 Isuzu Rodeo LSE is 1157.

On the 1989-1997 models all is the same except you need to remove the screws from the backside of the unit to remove the lens and the bulbs are pushed in and turned counter clockwise to remove.

Why does it sound like water is inside 1996 Isuzu Rodeo?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

More Info:

It sounds like there is water rushing back and forth under the drivers seat to under the gas pedal. The floor board is wet under the pedals. I can't see where there might be water stored. We just had a good amount of rain and this problem started right afterwards.

---

The water may be trapped inside the driver's door. All vehicles have drain holes at the bottom of the doors to drain water. These holes in most cases are very small. An accumulation of crud can plug those drain holes. You can drill a few 1/4" holes at the lowest point under the door to let it drain or you can disassemble the door panel and clean it out.

---

There's no water in the door. I just checked. It sounds like it's in the frame of the vehicle running underneath the drivers seat from behind it to almost the front left wheel well. I can hear it slosh around if I'm moving and I hit the brakes. Or when I'm stopped and I accelerate. Very weird.. It's been 4 days since it's rained and I can still hear it inside the floor pretty much.

The way to check the transmission fluid level is you run the vehicle in park until operating temp. When operating temperature is reached then there is a plug in the transmission pan pull out just the middle of it to check fluid.

Where do you fill transmission fluid on a 2001 Isuzu rodeo?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

On the back corner of the transmission pan towards the passenger side a little higher up on the pan is the fill plug. There are two plugs so do not open the one on the bottom because that is the drain plug. You'll need something like a siphon pump to fill into the plug hole. You can get one at walmart for under $10.
