1996 aurora trip computer reseting by lonewolf501

I was wondering how you reset the computer to read miles and farenheit instead of kilometers and celcius? Also when starting you have to give it a little gas and crank for like 15 seconds tostart, and when it does start it surges slightly and has a miss at takeoff from dead stop. could it be plugs needing changing? I didnt hear any air leaks when i checked today

I bought a Aurora 95 as is with some problems.
 
First windows are not working not a single one and I already change the braker for a new one ( $ 10.45 from a GMC dealer) no change. I'm wondering if anybody knows how to check the main window switch.
 
Also the power mirror are not working braker fine.
 
AC was working but no more (?)
 
power sunroof not working either.
 
I love the car runs like rocket but I'm scare of the electrical, I would like to restore it already all the seats done and rug, any suggestions please to solve the mistery. Thank you.

try sliding back the rubber that hold the wire bundle going to the drivers door and look for broken wires. this is a common problem.

Multifunction Fix then Horn Issues by andser

So.. I just completed repairing the Multifunction switch. Unforturnately for me the "contact cleaner" solution didn't work so I had to take the switch out and clean out the grease. Switch works like a charm now but after reinstalling, and hooking everything back up I turned the key and the horn started blaring. Not the honk, honk, honk of the anit-theft but HHHOOOOOOOONNNNNKKKK until I pulled the relay under the hood. It seems to be related to the key chip because all was good after I inserted the key, all was good as I unlocked the steering column, all went south in a hurry as I turned the key to start the engine. BTW the engine started just fine but the horn would not shut off.
I'm starting to wonder if I screwed up the re-assembly but I checked everything against my 98 (I have two classics, a 96 with the horn issue and a 98) and all seems well.
 
Anyone have any ideas?

I discovered the issue. The "pin" on the front of the multifunction switch that is supposed to make contact with the metallic cam on the steering column was out of place. Without the electrical contact the circuit had a dead short causing the horn to blow. Small fix to correct a bent pin, re-install and all works.

Good stuff. Thanks for the problem, the fix, the new problem, and the fix of that one as well. Ghosts are not entirely responsible for these electrical gremlins after all!!!!!!
