Which was repaired for 400 dollars. All interior accessories are broken; cosmetic mirror, ashtray, center console, passenger windshield wiper stripped motor, 1 window working. You should have a lifetime warranty on your odometer reading and knowing what gear you are in. When you are finished, you can use a multimeter to check your work. Apr 22, 2011 Check the taillight fuse, too 15 amp fuse next to the 7. I made this repair recently to my 2002 Buick Century Custom.
With the case completely removed, you should be able to see the complete circuit board. The approximate failure mileage was 200,000. I am sorry to say it has to be dash insert out to access behind where the lamps are located. The dealer stated that the parts were to be ordered, but were not yet available for them to provide a specific date of when the part would be available to complete the repair. Without me able to physically inspect things, there isn't much else I can do for you.
In my opinion, this wire is not connected to the right thing, so when your dash lights kick on, the stereo is shutting off as a safety precaution. You may notice that one or more of these resistors is crumbling or has come off of the board completely - this is the reason the circuit isn't working correctly. The approximate failure mileage was 110,000. I have 2 dash warning lights that will not go off, i have made all the needed adjustments that should have reset both warning lights, but they r still on. After it goes down you must wait 10 seconds or so and you can put window up. The gauges and warning lights were inoperable and the contact was unable to determine fuel levels or speeds traveled. Now my headlights will not turn on when the they are suppose to.
If the car is running okay, get it fixed in a reasonable amount of time such as within the month. The dash light that indicates the mileage and also the gear the car is in has gone out. There may be two of them. Plus it isn't just the lights in the dashboard. I checked the fuses inside and under the hood. The next step then is to find out why the taillight fuse blows. Hope this helps or at least, head you in the right direction to solve the issue.
With both hands grasping the steering wheel while the car jerked violently, I was unable to shift into neutral, as I was attempting to avoid other parked vehicles. Thanks so much for putting this together! Twist them together and tape over them I've seen people do this enough to warrant me asking. In my opinion, either the stereo is installed incorrectly, or you have some other short in a wiring harness. I did a little research online about these symptoms, all said the body control module was bad. This is an extremely dangerous situation, and there should be a recall on this. Don't freak out if you see or hear a few sparks as the cable is disconnected. Anything that caused combustion to fail, commonly called a misfire will set the light.
You don't reset the light. The odometer must be sent out of state for over a week. The scanner works on other vehicles. Hi, sorry for the late reply. Only when the lamp is checked can you determine if thats the problem or if the fault is else where. You have four wheel speed sensors, one in each wheel.
Same thing happened to me. I didn't put the mileage down when these incidents happened because the symptoms are ongoing!!! I suspect it's a common flaw with that year and model. This is the exact same issue my 2007 chevy trailblazer is being recalled for. My brakes have failed to brake and I went out into traffic - luckily no accident and there was a median I could steer into! Don't forget to reconnect the battery cable! I have a 1999 buick century and the same three lights come on together and go off together randomly. The easiest way is by removing the negative terminal - the black one that connects the battery to the car chassis.
With the engine off, turn the ignition key to run. You might be able to take it to an auto parts store and see if they would it up to a scanner that scans for abs codes. Have the dash lights always turned on a while after you start the car? This is an needed in-depth understanding for the public. They will only run under certain criteria. Be careful not to break off the tabs! Wish you would have included that part, but I got them soldered and hope I did a good enough job.
You also have to reset the system when you buy new tires or when you disconnect the vehicle's battery. The odometer reading disappeared, and the gear indicator disappeared on instrument cluster. Amy L, I just fixed this in my Century yesterday, it is a product defect in the '97. The vehicle has not been repaired. However, when lights are manually turned on the panel lights go out.
Why has this issue not been a recall! The contact also sensed a burning smell. When my buick sits for a while while running, the radiator fan comes on, you know? The purchase date was unavailable. Checked around and five other Buick all had the same issue. Then a year after, the lights starting coming on again, not all the time, just like the first time, either when turning a corner and hitting a bump, etc. It was a dark stretch of road. The light is on because the Traction Control is turned off.
