I didn't watch the video to see why he needed the IC or the capacitor, but when I added a trans temp gauge to my 2001, all I did was solder those mounts into place and add the correct air-core stepper motor. Works fine.
I won't ask how much he charged you.
Mine is an 05- it’s not the same. You have to reprogram EEPROM to tell it to be on also.

Replaced rear window washer motor. The old one has disintegrated somehow (battery or radiator proximity?)

Why so long?

To make a long sotry short : money. Lack of money to be precise.

We have a technical inspection every two years and it failed in 2018.
The amount of money I needed seemed so huge I parked the Thaoe and start commute with my '93 Mazda MX6 that did the job (and still does).

The company who installed the LPG system back in 2003 unsoldered the LED for the check engine warning light because they did not know how to turn it off once the LPG is running. It wasn't an issue before but they made this inspection more and more harder to pass every year. I knew I had to change the instrument cluster and could only do it this spring when I had extra money from my boss.
Plus I had to change rear brake shoes, front steering box with both steering box and idler arms, all O2 sensors, a rear missing fog light and check for a oil leak. Monday morning, if finally passes the inspection. It was my then 3rd rendez-vous. I'm quiet for 2 years now.

I bought parts on Rockauto only. Though shipping is around €100 each time (I always use FedEx as I don't see the point to lose 1 month just to save 10-15 bucks), and I don't get "core" money back as parts are so heavy it will cost me more to ship them back than to keep 'em.

I should thanks my mechanics who is very nice. He let me come with my parts. that is rare.

It's now 2 days I'm driving it 40mi per day and enjoying it.

when you do a core return thru rockauto they provide a shipping label (on there discounted account) then they just deduct it from your refund. so no way it would cost more than what they charged for shipping to do the return, you just use the same box they shipped it in.

He's in France. Lol.
Sadly yes. I'm in a socialist country that hates cars, especially with a V8 engine in it. I could say I'm a résistant. XD

Removed the 3rd row when back from work. Showed my wife what I'm planning.
Filled up the LPG tank. Purr like a charm. :D
