    p0715 sensor replacement / almost stalling at stop

    It looks like I've fixed the issue. One thing I didn't read in the threads about the sensor replacement is to do the idle learn procedure after disconnecting the battery. Maybe it's common knowledge and I just didn't think about it. But here's what I did at lunch yesterday and everything...

    p0715 sensor replacement / almost stalling at stop

    Van: 2006 Mazda5 Sport AT A few weeks ago I had the P0715 code come up and the van dropped down to 3rd gear until I stopped. After searching through the forums I found that the turbine speed sensor should be replaced to fix the issue. I replaced it this past weekend along with the rear...

    Replacement A/C Compressor sources.

    On our way up to North Carolina I had the A/C belt go on my Mazda 5 at 63K. It was either the belt cracked or the compressor seized up. I got to my mechanic today and he looked at it and sure enough it's got a flat spot in it where it's difficult to turn. He did some looking and couldn't...

    Passenger headlight not working.

    Disregard. Turns out I wasn't using the adapter from the old bulb to the new ones which is why I couldn't get anything working. I've since replaced both bulbs and everything is fine.

    Passenger headlight not working.

    So I was coming home from the YMCA last night and happened to pass a local county Sheriff who was sitting on the side of the road. Checked my speed and everything was cool.... or so I thought. The Sheriff pulls out behind me and fired up the lights and pulled me over. She lets me know that my...
