I replaced the front passenger wheel bearing and removed the brake pads to clean up the sliding plates and lubricate them. I made sure to reinstall the wishbone type springs. After completing the job and putting my tools away, I saw this on the driveway right next to where I was working. Did this clip come from the brakes or anything else that I may have worked on to replace the wheel bearing? Here's the photo of this clip, or whatever it is. Anybody recognize this?:
Thanks for responding, Kev. I'm looking at a Honda diagram, and don't see that clip in the photo above for the brake pipe where it connects to the flex hose. That clip looks different than this one and I didn't mess with the brake pipe anyway. I only removed the flexible hose from the strut so I could move the caliper/bracket out of the way to remove the axle out of the hub to do the bearing replacement. I'm thinking this is just some radom clip from something else that got swept up on the driveway and it's not even from this car? Unless someone knows this is a Honda part (or even a car part at all)? I dunno.
This below is part #31 and it is called a brake hose clip:
Another copy of the diagram for part #31 (I wish they had photos instead):
This part #31 above (which is not the part I posted in my first post on this thread) slides in the groove at the end of the flexible hose as it attaches to the bracket from which the brake pipe comes. The pipe and hose are connected with a flare nut. This clip #31 keeps the flexible hose in the bracket.
Brake pipe clips are usually plastic and are shaped like this:
The wheel sensor is bolted to the knuckle and has two plastic clips that secure its wire to the strut. It doesn't have a metal clip like I posted in my first post.
I'll have to take a look at the other side tonight.
What? No need at all for that mea culpa. You're trying to help and it is very appreciated. I can only think this little clip is from some other thing in my garage and it somehow landed right where I was working. It's gonna bug me forever until I discover or remember what it is.
Anyway, if you have time I have another thread about my dumb mishap I caused. Any insight would be great (besides reminding me that I'm an idiot). The thread is titled "What did I mess up.....?"
2006 CR-V 2WD Japan built. The brake warning light is now illuminated. I'm pretty sure it's because I did a no-no when trying to diagnose a scraping sound at the front passenger side which is where the impact was when my daughter wrecked her CR-V with no collision insurance. I'm fixing it for...
I've searched other threads and didn't find a good answer.
I often move my car and don't put on the seatbelt for a quick move. And beepers really annoy me.
I looked under the dash and heard it loud and clear but I could not find the actual beeper.
Has anyone found it and disabled it?
Thanks
2006 Honda CR-V. At some point the rear hatch door lock striker was removed. I've installed the replacement electronic door lock switch assembly in the tailgate, and I have the striker, but there is nothing in the holes in the body for which the screws to fasten. I won't be able to make it to...
I'm looking to replace my OEM 2005 radio system with an aftermarket unit that has Bluetooth and a large touch screen interface (don't want/need CD or DVD). There's lots of double DIN options on crutchfeld / Amazon - does anyone have any recommendations for a unit that will fit well in the 05...
Hey! I have a 02 Honda crv. So I went to change my tire yesterday and saw that I had about 3 inches of water in the spare tire well. Any suggestions on how to stop this leak?
