    Be sure to check for clogged sunroof drains

    This is a follow-up to a post that I made in the drivetrain forum. In September, my 2007 CX-9 went through two BCMs (Body Control Module) in a month. The BCM controls the turn signals, door locks, dash warning lights and a lot more. The root cause of the problem was a clogged sunroof drain...

    The dash indicators for TCS Off, TCS/DCS, Brake and Low Oil still light up when I start the CX9. Now the power door locks have stopped working. However, the engine runs fine. Oil looks good on the dipstick. Brake feel fine. Obviously something is up with the electrics. alan

    TCS Off and Low Oil Pressure lit suddenly, dipstick shows oil OK

    I have a 2007 CX9 with 67000 more-or-less trouble-free miles on it. Today, the Low Oil Pressure light, Brake light, the TCS Off light and the TSC/DSC Indicator light all lit up (and now stay lit) after driving the CX9 about a mile or so. Drove it back to the house where it has sit. I checked...
