#16 of 69 Interior lights by biningerta Apr 20, 2006 (7:13 am)
My interior lights stay on while driving. When the car is turned off the lights go off after about 40 minutes. I could not find anything in the manual about this. Also My airbag light flashes all the time too? How often do you have to replace the cabin filter? I changed mine after 3 years and now the dealership wants to change it again. It's not cheap!!

Replying to: biningerta (Apr 20, 2006 7:13 am) Are you sure you don't have the interior lights turned on? The battery save will turn them off if you accidentally leave them on.   The airbag light is probably the wiring harness under the driver's seat.   You should replace the cabin filter once a year. You can buy the filters yourself from Autozone - it only takes 5 minutes to change it. Replies to this message: biningerta (Apr 21, 2006 5:30 am) akirby (Apr 21, 2006 6:11 am)

Replying to: akirby (Apr 20, 2006 9:05 am) The interior lights are not turned on. I tried everything I could think of and the book was no help. It started when I opened my trunk with the remote. How easy is it to put a cabin filter in? Thanks, Replies to this message: akirby (Apr 21, 2006 6:11 am)

Replying to: biningerta (Apr 21, 2006 5:30 am) You unfasten a few plastic rivet type connectors to remove the trim panel at the base of the windshield on the passenger side. Then you unhook the old filter, pull it out, push in the new one, hook the tabs and reinstall the trim panel. To remove the rivet type connectors, push down on the center pin until they click. To reinstall them, push the center pin up so that it sticks up above the head, put them in and push down on the center pin to lock them.   Seriously - 5 minutes. 2 minutes if you've done it before.
#20 of 69 2000 LS; airbag light on by jodar96 Oct 19, 2006 (3:20 am)
Our LS has 103K miles. Yesterday, the airbag light came on. After some stop and restart, I noticed that the light is blinking with this pattern; It flashes 3 times, followed by a pause, and then 2 flashes. It does this five (5) times before the light stays on constantly.   Does anyone know what this code means?   Thanks, Joe Replies to this message: akirby (Oct 19, 2006 6:10 am) heyjewel (Oct 22, 2006 2:11 pm)

Replying to: jodar96 (Oct 19, 2006 3:20 am) Not sure about the code but it's typically the wiring harness under the front seat. Don't remember any other details. Replies to this message: heyjewel (Oct 22, 2006 2:11 pm)

Replying to: akirby (Oct 19, 2006 6:10 am) I concur. Same or similar thing happened with my light. But at about 51,000 miles. Dealer fixed it by repairing or replacing the harness under the driver seat.
#23 of 69 Overheating 2000 Linc LS by acalar Oct 23, 2006 (7:53 am)
Car overheats when in traffic jams. Checked everything. Needs Hydraulic fan Solenoid on Hyd pump. Will not allow fan to kick into hi speed when hot. How hard or expensive is it to convert to electric? What EXACT parts do I use to do this? Is it hard to change the hyd sol? Thanks for any help.

Replying to: acalar (Oct 23, 2006 7:53 am) Just remember that the whole reason they went with the hydraulic fan in 2000 was that there wasn't enough juice in the electrical system to reliably support an electric fan. They fixed that in 2003. All you need for an electric fan is a power source and a thermostat - usually comes as a kit. Not sure how you'd disable the old one though.

Replying to: trey2000 (Mar 17, 2006 1:38 pm) The dealer is quoting me $1,350 to replace the passenger side side airbag. Anybody have an idea if this is an acceptable price? Replies to this message: akirby (Nov 17, 2006 1:29 pm)
