#4104 of 4283 Re: Power Steering Issues [d_stenulson] by e_net_rider Feb 03, 2009 (2:00 am)
Replying to: d_stenulson (Jan 25, 2009 1:32 pm) Knowing which bolts broke will let you know if it was the previous mechanic's fault. From what I remember of the way the unit is connected, I'd guess it was the bolts holding the rack in place. Did they break or did they back out? Either way, I'd bet the bolts were not properly torqued. Replies to this message: d_stenulson (Feb 23, 2009 8:40 pm)
#4105 of 4283 Temp gage/ heater problem by 1oldude Feb 15, 2009 (6:03 pm)
Outside air temp (OAT) reads 125F and heater hot air available only at 90F setting. Without manuals my guess is that bad OAT gage is causing a/c control to limit hot air mix and not provide desired cabin temp. Does anyone agree? How do I confirm my guess and fix the problem?
#4106 of 4283 Headlight bulb Replacement by coreyg1 Feb 16, 2009 (4:52 am)
TO those who have tackled this job of replacing a headlight bulb (passenger side). I first looked at my manual then here. Between the two sources it sounded like a project that might be troublesome. I must say that getting to the bulbs was quite the task. Unless you have child size hands. I couldn't get the assembly to move forward until I removed 4 or was it 6 bolts. Either way it was a pain!!!! Is there any one out there that wants to jump in on this. Was I missing something? I find it hard to believe that this task really is that difficult. I have done this on all my previous vehicles in a matter of minutes. Whats the deal olds? Replies to this message: spiders1 (Apr 04, 2009 10:07 pm)

Replying to: tylutki (Feb 17, 2009 5:23 pm) It could be the multi-function switch on the turn signal arm. Search for my blog about fixing troubles with the switch..

Replying to: tylutki (Feb 17, 2009 5:23 pm) Could be that both low-beam filaments are toast.   Les Replies to this message: e_net_rider (Feb 24, 2009 5:03 am)
#4110 of 4283 Re: when turn key on nothing happens Car WONT Start [gsapp] by 01aurora1 Feb 17, 2009 (10:47 pm)
Replying to: gsapp (Jun 16, 2007 7:05 pm) I also have an 01 with 122k/ miles. Just replaced the ignition relay.... located underneath the back seat... $20.00 part. I was also told that there can be a problem in the actual ignition where you insert the key... that plastic bits can disrupt contact, requiring replacement. So far, I haven't needed that replaced. Have you had any probs with the headlamps 'flickering' while driving?????

Replying to: tylutki (Feb 17, 2009 5:23 pm) The contacts for the light switch may be gunked up. pull the rubber housing back from the headlight handle on your steering wheel and spray some contact cleaner over the contacts. If you can get a q-tip inside to wipe it down and clean it up and then spray another shot in there. Check to see if this fixes your problem. This is the simple fix first. If it doesnt I would look at my sentinel switch and then the light switch itself. Those are going to get expensive.

Replying to: e_net_rider (Feb 03, 2009 2:00 am) i would agree... and the fact that the guy that fixed it before is refusing to fix it again plus is saying that there was no warranty on the parts makes me think that it is his fault and he does not want to own up to his own mistakes...
#4113 of 4283 2001 aurora 4.0 by mike1256 Feb 23, 2009 (11:43 pm)
car is running rough only at operating temp so changed the plugs and wires but still rough....in reading through this forum i am getting all sorts of advice about egr valves, o2sensors, and fuel relays could be causing the problem. I had a mechanic look at it and he says its a leaking seal at the back of the intake manifold??? The cars surges at idle and park and at 50kpm it feels like its accellerating and then decellerating but goes away past that. I also hear a strange noise like air whenever I step on the gas pedal... Has anyone else had these problems thanks MIke Replies to this message: e_net_rider (Feb 24, 2009 5:52 am) mike1256 (Feb 24, 2009 7:55 pm)
