Replying to: slackerman (May 04, 2009 3:32 pm) 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 amerage 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 ever again.

My 2000 cavalier has a problem with the left rear brake light/turn signal. When I turn on the signal it blinks very rapidly. I know that the turn signal works and the brake light doesnt. I have replaced bulbs thinking that it had just burnt out, but the last time I went to change it out I looked and both filimants were intact. I bought a Haynes repair manual to see if I could find something in there but all it showed was how to change the bulb. Any fresh ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I have a 2000 Cavalier, 4dr sedan with just under 120,000 kms on it. It's a great little car but I have a few issues that maybe are related. The odometer is weird most of the time I can't make out the mileage very well, there is no warning alarm when I leave the headlights on, the radio stays on when I turn off the ignition. This vehicle's dome light stays on and gradually turns itself off after you turn the ignition off and that's what the radio used to do too, but now I have to make sure I shut the radio off, however the dome still works properly. Also, when I open my driver's door, my interior light doesn't come on, that's a pain at night. Hope you can help me. Thanks in advance. Sherry
