I did buy a new igintion switch. I will see about the voltage thing. How do you check it? It's cold and a heater would be nice.

I replaced my igintion switch and it fixed it for months and now it's back to not working. So, what should I do now?

#141 of 148 99 Intrigue no heat, no cruise, no auto headlight by car4dit

My 1999 Intrigue had the automatic headlights stop working a few weeks ago one evening, then a few days later I noticed no more cruise control, then the heater control unit would go dark and sometimes just stop working completely after traveling a few miles, but never staying on for more than 5 miles or so. I called the dealer maintenance shop, said they would charge $98 just to look at it! So I read the posts on this forum. I bought a new ignition switch for $87.99 and today my neighbor (a Honda mechanic) spent 2 hours replacing the switch (he charged me only $80). I've since taken 2 drives for > 10 miles after dark... the headlights come on all by themselves, the cruise control works again, and the heater stayed on, and even responded to the buttons I pushed. I am so thrilled! Thanks so much to those of you that posted your issues here for people like me to read and TOTALLY solve my problem. You guys are great! My mechanic neighbor was skeptical, but admits that it worked.

I replaced my ignition switch, too. I still have the same problem. It only worked for 4 months then it went back to crazy again. Now one size is cold while the other is hot. I hot wire the ground wire and I get hot and cold. I don't see replacing the switch again.

I don't know how to tell you that. My comes out cold on one side and hot on the other side. So I can't run my ac cause it blows hot air on the driver side but cold on passenger. I'm out $1000.00 already. My brother, that's a mechanic in Texas said he has never seen that problem before. That's why I have hot wire the ground. It's on but cold and hot. My quit coming on after I paid $1000.00 to fix it. I wish I knew. Sorry!

#146 of 148 A/C light will not come on by gpardue

Jun 02, 2012 (10:10 am)

I have a 99 Intrigue GLS, 3.8 liter, I love my car other than the a/c dont work. The light for the a/c will not come on when pressed, neither does the light to pull in air from the outside. When you press the button to recicurlate air from inside the cabin, it will come on. When you adjust the the temp on the drivers, it will show the temp going up or down, but the passager will not. The heat works GREAT!!! Both the defrosters work, and the lights come on when pressed. Can someone please help!!!

Woohoo! I'm happy for you that the ignition switch fixed the A/C problem, especially now that it's getting hot. Thanks for coming back to share the solution.
