So yeah, I'm new to this forum, So.. hi everyone.
I have only two problems I was curious about, one of them occurring within the last few hours.
1: I replaced the brake pads on the front of my truck today. Install was fine, bled from the bleeder screw on the calipers.. everything went as normal. Got in to test the truck out, brakes worked without fail (aside from needing to bleed further), but there is now an awful scratching noise that comes from my driver front. Obviously the answer is: Take the tire back off and check it out... it got too dark out before I could get back underneath it, I'm just asking to see if anyone has any ideas of what I should look for when I get under there tomorrow.
2: Is there a common electrical problem with these trucks? Half my door speakers don't work, electric mirrors don't work, and the keypad to unlock/lock doors doesn't work. I've checked fuses and changed batteries, still nothing. As a DYI'er, what else should I check?
