You may be better off selling the car and picking yourself up a less complicated more reliable car. This is too complicated and way too expensive your your young pocket book. Just being honest and trying to cut your losses. If you can dodge a ball you can dodge a wrench. You just got hit by a wrench and a wench.

I recently had the message appear "Gas Cap Off" message appear. I double checked the gas cap and it clicked for me I made sure it was on tight cleaned out dirt then the engine light came on. I read that the engine light will come on if the DIC shows "Gas Cap Off". I also read to replace the gas cap because the rubber lining in the gas cap get old and needs to be replaced. Sure enough all was true. I replaced the Gas cap with a new at $9.00 at NAPA Auto Store and they also let me borrow a machine for free that you hook up to the car and gives you the codes for the "check engine" light. Sure enough the code read some "emissions" and some other code I reset the codes and I was good to go, no more "check engine light" and no more DIC code..........I did it all by myself at a cost of $9.00 YAY!!

Having the battery in the back seat away from the thermal variations of the engine increase the battery life by two fold. Problem is these suckers run 150-200 bucks depending on your local dealers price. It's AC DElphi (Delco) or nothing. RT

Replying to: pscheid (Jan 16, 2009 1:02 pm) That being said, 10 years is pretty incredible! However, I think your pushing it by letting your battery levels go so low . Warning this is a GM, very very sensitive to electrical bugs/problems. Your quite a risk taker. Me... I dont like to ride the fence, too hard on the back side. |
