Is there a siphon pump you recommend? I bought two to do this job and ended up trashing both of them last year. They did not have enough suction power to pull any fluid out. I ended up taking a clear length of hose and sucking on the end of it and let gravity do the rest.
I need to change my...
Congrats.
1 - Possibly a nagging exhaust leak that was remedied with welding rather than trying another clamp. Have you verified stock components in place? If aftermarket, many will weld rather than use clamps to avoid leaks.

The wiring harness in the door probably pulled the wire. The 'click click' noise is probably the wire mometarily making a connection. I would pull all the electrical tape off and go through the connections. You will probably see a few other wires that are starting to pull apart as well.
A little unclear what you have done, but it sounds like you are replacing the defective pad with one that does not have an attached shim?If so, I think the shim serves mainly to stop brake squeal. If you want an interim solution until your new pads get sent back, just throw a little anti squeal...
I just changed mine and can tell you the fluid is THICK. If possible, try to warm it up a bit with a short jaunt arount town before trying to extract. It will make things a lot easier.
Were model year 2000 vehicles not subject to the steering rack and pinion recall that required the gussets to be welded to the frame? I could be mistaken. Not a real difference I suppose, but I would certainly inspect for proper work to have been completed with some degree of competence if...
OK, thanks. Was not sure if the cracks were developing as a result of age or mileage, or perhaps a combination of the two. This is something I have thought about looking into during the down months.
The diaphragm is supposed to act as a barrier to moisture from the air. Remove the diaphragm and per the Wizard's instructions, suction out the fluid, refill, pump clutch 20 or so times, suction out once more, and refill and reinstall diaphragm.
