when you turn on your emergency flashers, do the lights light?
 
i'm thinking it is your steering wheel mounted switch that may be broken / not working.

92 saturn locked out by jam1126
Dec 29, 2006 (6:27 pm)
My son just brought a used saturn and he used it once and locked it and when he returned the key would not open the door. I went to assist with my 24 year old son and we tried everything...the key opened the trunk but we could not get the seat to release to get in from the trunk...we finally had to leave it till tomorrow...any suggestions on how to get in the car short of calling for a lock service...don't know why the keys don't work on the doors.

94 saturn wont start sometimes by jbalcerak
Jan 05, 2007 (9:13 am)
I have a 94 saturn that doesn't always want to start. I thought it was the fuel pump. Because it was not turning on when I put the key into start position. So I put a live switch that turns on the pump. So now the pump turns on but the car still wont start. Is there something else electronic that controls both the fuel pump and something else. If I put fuel in the air intake and the car will start till fuel is gone but it wont stay running......One more thing. it seems to be not working only when its cold outside.

Re: Hard Shifting Problems With 2003 Saturn L200 [hdgt93] by nougat

Try changing the air filter. I went to the dealer for an oil change on my 2002 L200. They checked the air filter. It was old, but I declined, opting to change it myself. After I left, I had all those symptoms - hard shift, cooling fan always on high, strange idle speeds. After I got home, I checked the air filter. The rubber seal around the edge was dryrotten and split, and I don't think they or I had gotten the cover back on tight enough. I bought a new filter, removed the air intake tube from the cover in order to get it seated right, and put it all back together. Problem solved.

2000 SATURN SL-1 ELECTIRICAL PROBLEM?? by jbermudez
Jan 08, 2007 (3:53 pm)
Hello all,
here my problem in detail. my girlfriend owns the car. she has complained to me that on occasion (5 times in the last month) she needs to get jump started at work when she is going home. *** note I bought her a new battery about 2 months ago.***
 
Everytime when she gets home I check the car and everything seems fine??? but this morning We woke up and her car was dead. I tryed to jump it but the battery would not hold a charge.
So I tried to charge the battery. I've got a fancy battery charger that had a diagnostic code that said the battrey was bad. no prob, I have seen this before. So I went to NAPA and bought a new battery.
 
Here the current prob. I hooked up the new battery. went to crank the car over and the was a click and everything went out. no power, no accessory, no headlights, nothing.. (however the time was on the stock stereo!). I took the neg off the battery to see if it would reset anything and reconnected it nothing, same problem totally dead.
 
I check all the 30 & 50 amp fuses all look good. it is my suspesion possible a relay is bad???? when I reconnect the battery I hear no clicking from any relays.
 
Any suggestions are very appreciated.

2000 SATURN SL-1 ELECTIRICAL PROBLEM 2 ?? by jbermudez
Jan 09, 2007 (12:11 pm)
Ok here it is. I went out last night in the dark to see if I could see anything diffrent on the car. and this is what's up.
 
I connected a brand new battery and waited 15 min
I turned the key and nothing, no power to anything,no accessory, no dash lights, no lights nothing. in the dark when I turn the key. I do see a very faint light for the heater come on of a half of second then gets dim(this is so faint I cannot see in the day). the stereo clock LCD is on????
 
I pulled ever single fuse and check and reseated them. all is good. I pulled and reseated all the relays.
 
Can someone tell me what could cause a no power problem like this??? bad ignition switch???
  
thanks,
john b

Do you have headlights? If you don't, you have a battery cable problem I'd guess.
