Hello ptprice,
I have a 2004 PT Turbo, I have to change the water pump. I will be changing everything while doing this job. (timing belt, ect.) I got it all apart but in doing so, my cam sprockets moved after the timing belt was off. They have moved in both directions a number of times. Also my timing belt gear (at the bottom of the timing belt) has moved, 1/4 turn clockwise and then back to the timing marks on the gear. (I may have turned it clockwise a turn or two as well) I am wondering will there be any damage done due to the cam sprockets moving and that gear moving counterclockwise? (and or clockwise a few turns) Im also having difficulties trying to get the darn timing belt back on as the tension pully seems to not want to move enough for me to get the belt over. Any answers would be very appreciate

Hey there! I noticed you added a back-up camera to your PT. I want to add one to a 2003 GT, but the license plate light is right above where the camera sits.

Did you run into any problems with the light blowing out your picture at night? Thanks!

Hey Price, will look and see tomorrow if I have a dash piece or not. Sounds like a great project and something I might want for sure.

ptprice - Busted_PT responded to my post on being unable to open the rear hatch on my 2009 PT Gen2 (bad touchpad) [http://www.ptcruiserlinks.com/forum/...snt-open.html] He suggested that I might contact you, he believed you have recently had a similar situation and maybe some pointers for me.

I recently purchased a 2009 and the touch sensor is completely unresponsive. There is no key unlock cylinder and I do not see mounting hardware on the inside of the hatch to remove the finish panel to access the lock mechanism to manually open the hatch. Any help is greatly appreciated. Happy New Year.
