... Answer - 29 days. The second Silverstar went out a couple days ago; OEM bulb back in. If I get real energetic, I might try the "modified 9005 bulb" trick...
Hi everyone, can someone help me with my problem? I own a 2003 Matrix XRS 6-speed. Well, because it's a 6-speed, the reverse is located by the 1st Gear. It's...
The XRS has a back up beeper? Interesting. Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where Jerry is test driving the van and looks around to see who is backing up. ...
It is probably a switch that is located on your transmission. I know that automatic transmissions have such a switch, but I am not sure about the Trix. You can...
I'm new to the group and I have a question. I'm going on a cross country road trip from San Diego, CA to the northeast coast and back in my 2005 Matrix RX....
... The 115V converter in the Matrix is rated at 100W which should deal with most any laptop, which typically are in the 75 to 100W range. There will be a...
I originally thought it might be the fuse. But when a fuse blows, it stops any device from working until you replace the fuse. However, the reverse "beeping"...
haha.. yeah sounds funny.. but you could only hear the beeping from inside the car... it's a safety feature coz the XRS is a 6-speed and the reverse is right...

Changing out the fuse takes less then 5 minutes. I'd go for it, so it can be ruled out of the equation. Also, change out the reverse light bulbs. If they are...
Looking at the wiring manual, everything is in parallel except the fuse and the backup light switch. So a bad fuse or bad backup switch would cause your...
I guess the fact the car is moving backwards is not enough of a clue! Man, talk about lawyers designing cars to protect people from themselves. ... inside the...
I accidentally put a car in reverse instead of 1st one time. It had a loose linkage that sometimes allowed it to appear to be in 1st but it was really in...
Not close at all, it takes significantly more effort to shove the stick into reverse than it is into 1st. In fact, if you do it wrong, you will not engage any...
Thanks to all that replied. I'm leaving next Sunday and I'll be reading your emails along the way. ... From: A. G. Casebeer To: Toyota_Matrix@yahoogroups.com ...
Yeah Karl, Your senario is precisely the reason I need to get this fixed. I take my car out to places where valet parkers might mistake reverse gear for first...
Yeah the beeping can get annoying, it's just something you get used to. But yeah, it's true, if you have someone in your car that hasn't been in a Trix then...
Good point, in other cars when changing/regapping at between 10k and 20k they used to be hard to remove, wonder how 'stuck' they will be at 120k or 5 to 8...
That’s what we do with our laptop. We use MS streets and trips 2006, and then I use my phone as the GPS unit. It’s a Motorola iDEN phone - you guys in the...
With plug changes every 120K I'll let the dealership do it, if its that much a PITA. If this change rate is true, then at worse its pretty much in the same...
It's actually very easy. Toys, generally, aren't bad to work on. They are normally sensibly laid out and designed. My Matrix and my wife's Celica are very easy...
... Depends. The best way to screw things up in an aluminum head is to pull the plugs out of a hot engine. ALWAYS pull them when the engine is cold and you ...
Exactly Badam............. Always put plugs in and take them out with a cold engine. Lots of peeps will take a cold plug and wind it very tight into a hot...
