Replying to: ludedude (May 09, 2009 6:35 am) 1. Disconnect battery negative and positive terminals, then install short connector on airbags, 2. When replacing left hand side sensor, remove foot rest and door sill moulding, then pull back carpet. 3. When replacing right hand side sensor, remove foot rest and door sill moulding, then pull back carpet. Remove fuel injection ECU. 4. On either sensor, remove sensor mounting bolts, then the sensor. 5. Reverse procedure to install, torquing sensor mounting bolts to 16 ft. lbs. If you don't know what a short connector is, don't mess with your airbags.

Replying to: jamie28 (May 10, 2009 12:19 pm) I don't know, but you can certainly compare them against the others to see if one is significantly different.

Replying to: jamie28 (May 10, 2009 12:19 pm) primary -- (low scale) 0.2 - 0.5 ohms secondary (high scale) -- 5k - 25k ohms
#4820 of 4960 Re: Turn signal problem - can you help me? [euphonium] by alternator May 13, 2009 (6:06 am)
Replying to: euphonium (May 05, 2009 8:53 am) Although I told the service writer at the Chevrolet dealership that my turn signals did not blow out fuse sitting in driveway, but only when car was driven, the mechanic at first told me that they corrected my problem by changing the fuse. I had not noticed that my backup lamps are on same circuit as the turn signals. Apparently a backup "combination bulb and alarm" (the likes of which I have installed on my cars for many years) was drawing too much amperage and blowing the fuse. They charged me an unconscionable $83 to diagnose and change the bulb back to a standard type. Then they told me that transmission fluid was leaking at the half-shaft connection. What little oil/grease I saw there was not red and was not dripping. They insisted it was a serious matter they could correct for about $400 (or only $360 if they did the work right then), otherwise I might suddenly lose all my transmission fluid and totally wreck my transmission. I declined that service. And I'll not be returning to that dealer again. Replies to this message: alternator (May 13, 2009 6:35 am) richardson (May 14, 2009 5:58 pm)

Replying to: alternator (May 13, 2009 6:06 am) I forgot to mention that my 2005 Cavalier mileage is only 24,000

Replying to: alternator (May 13, 2009 6:06 am) Maybe that will be one of the dealers that goes out of business this year.
