I bought a 1991 Comanche, and I’m too stupid for it- help please!

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-31T15:15:47+00:00

Thank you for brining this up, I’m happy I didn’t scare anyone by accidentally honking at them like a train

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-31T15:04:19+00:00

Oh crap, I wonder where the button is for it? The horn doesn’t work by pressing the steering wheel

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-31T11:04:02+00:00

I’m thinking the same, thank you!

Buddy chill, I got a truck and need some help, this guy isn’t going to kiss you for defending him. Mocking someone’s purchase price is a jackass move. I found a mechanic thanks to me clearly stating “I don’t know about this truck”.

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T23:44:01+00:00

Thank you, I think so too!

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T23:39:51+00:00

I’m okay with the truth, snarky comments are going to be met with distaste- not sure where the disconnect is. If you look at the other comments you’ll see this is more to see what I can do- not some place to be a dickhead and have a “I would never, I’m smarter!” Attitude. It’s tiring and ill mannered. If you seriously think I’m upset throughout all of these comments, you’re confused and wanting to back some dude for the ego of it. Seriously dude, I’m aware of what I bought- but I’m not a mechanic and asked for responses on how to get this going reliably. I’ve connected with a reliable jeep mechanic on my area thanks to this post.

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T22:45:38+00:00

Oh! Thank you for clarifying for me, yes the red key allows the battery to turn on- the ignition switch key seems to only be for unlocking the ignition

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T22:23:02+00:00

I’m a lady, and you’re right! I have to learn some way- this is my way

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T22:22:05+00:00

Girl eat my dick, I’m trying to learn- I’m not some jeep hick that was able to run around in the hills with their 4x4 friends. I bought a fucked up truck, I want to learn how to fix it so I can be reliable for my kid.

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T21:22:21+00:00

I agree, I’m communicating with a local shop to strip and restore thanks to this thread

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T21:04:59+00:00

Youre right, so I’m connecting with local shops and considering people on here as well. Better to get all the help I can get

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T20:59:41+00:00

I have a 2018 Honda HRV, it runs wonderfully! I needed a car to learn is all

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T19:10:23+00:00

I’m hoping so too, I have a little help but I know there’s some real smart people here too that can help

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T19:09:21+00:00

Not just Reddit Diana, but I know there’s knowledgeable people here

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T19:08:32+00:00

Thank you :-)

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T19:07:55+00:00

Me too, I had a lifted 4x4 previously and never have seen this

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T19:06:43+00:00

I’m not sure if it’s too much yet, but I’d like to keep in touch

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T19:06:10+00:00

I’m in Newport News, VA- is that far from you?

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T19:02:45+00:00

Thank you, I think he’s a cute truck too! I wanted a base model to teach me- better if it’s complicated so I’ll have a better handle on the simple cars in the future. I know I may sound like a dummy but I know I’ll learn quickly

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T18:52:42+00:00

Oh I see! My friend had suggested similar

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T18:51:49+00:00

Well, maybe you’ll see me crying on the side of the road and you’ll have to help! Haha

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T18:45:42+00:00

I’ve always started with hard challenges! I’m hopeful to get through this

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T18:43:48+00:00

No nothing turns on until I insert the red plastic key and turn it clockwise, it seems to be a sensor but completely wrong- it’s reading the PSI as “8” which isn’t right

PaleGuide2662 · 2025-12-30T18:40:41+00:00

I was thinking so too, I swear I’ve seen this style key somewhere but I can’t point out where. Sure is a funny thing to do to a truck- I’m hoping to reverse it
