#133 of 136 2003 Sunfire - maybe electrical? by mssunfire Apr 09, 2009 (11:02 am)
When you turn the key the dash board lights flicker but won't turn over. When you take the key out it makes a clicking noise through the dash. Any suggestions, my dad will try. I have no job or money. Trying to get by. Sometimes the car would not start in the past. Also there is a constant buzz over my radio so I turn it up to drown it out, maybe it's related or not? Please HELP!

Replying to: naddynad86 (Feb 24, 2009 9:50 am) trouble shooting a drain can be a real pain. but if you are willing to try something then this might help. electrical issues can be cause by starters, alternators, radios etc most things that have coils windings etc. try unplugging them one at a time and leave them overnight and see if it makes a difference. if not then try disconnecting the negative terminal hook a test light to the cable and then the neg terminal of the battery if there is a draw the test light should light up dim to bright depending on the draw. if it lights the start pulling fuses until the light goes out. and if all else fails just install a battery shut off switch on the neg or pos battery cable and shut if off every night. hope this helps. good luck.
#135 of 136 Lamps on Reminder (& key in ignition) warning chime not working by karenrc Jul 14, 2009 (12:58 pm)
Hi All,   A few months ago, my 2004 Sunfire started acting up. I'd turn it off, open the door and the radio would stay on. When I wiggled the little toggle on the door frame, it would shut off. Not any more. Nor is there a warning chime if I leave the key in the ignition and open the driver's door and I found out the hard way today that there's no chime when I leave the headlights on. I've sprayed the toggle with WD-40 and Jig-a-loo...no change.   Any suggestions? I could do without another dead battery!   TIA, Karen in Keswick :o)
