#36 of 46 1997 Saturn SL1 serive light comes on by downstigger Nov 08, 2008 (5:52 pm)
My stepson and myself installed an after factory stereo and now when I start the car within seconds the service light comes on and stays on. We have tried disconnecting the positive post on the battery and waiting as long as 15 minutes. Is there something I am missing? Everything works and I have had no problems with the car since I purchased it 2 weeks ago. Any suggestions, before I spend the money to have it hooked up to the computer code reading machine.

Replying to: downstigger (Nov 08, 2008 5:52 pm) Go to Autozone or another auto parts store - they will read the codes for free.   Make sure you get the actual codes and then post them here. I'll keep an eye out...

The service light stays on but not the service engine soon light. Oil change, plugs O2 sensor new. Had it scanned at Auto Zone came up with no codes. Any ideas how to clear this? Replies to this message: 442dude (Dec 14, 2008 11:01 am) wyelbill (Dec 23, 2008 2:52 am)

Replying to: wyelbill (Dec 11, 2008 2:52 am) At the Dealer...they're Saturn specific codes and not every reader will read them. Its trying to tell you that something is wrong but its not emissions related. Sometimes its as simple as a burned out bulb somewhere. Replies to this message: wyelbill (Dec 23, 2008 2:52 am)

Replying to: 442dude (Dec 14, 2008 11:01 am) Come to find out, the tailpipe/muffler bracket was broken completely off. Made a new one myself. After about 10 minutes on the road and another engine start the light was out and has not come back on. Cost: 2 hours of my time.
#41 of 46 1996 Saturn SL2: Horn stuck on by gnutbuster Apr 20, 2009 (9:52 am)
I have a 1996 Saturn SL2 with power doorlocks and windows (including a non-functional moon roof due to leaks it has been sealed shut ... that's another story). The car suddenly started honking all by itself and I had to remove the fuse to quiet the noise. This happened around the same time that the power doorlocks started clicking, I had to remove the fuses to prevent this from draining the battery. Doing w/o the power door locks is something that we can deal with but, not having a honk is a safety issue. This is my daughter's primary mode of transportation and I need to know that she and the other occupants will not be in danger of possibly being unable to warn another vehicle of a pending accident because of not being able to toot the horn. I know that somewhere amongst yards of wires in the electrical system these two items are connected, when they both functioned properly the horn would sound when the doors were locked using the remote. Has anyone run into a similar set of troubles? Not sure where to start with tracing the troubles.
#42 of 46 Alternator problem by argus462 May 17, 2009 (6:21 am)
Hi, Bought a 96 SL1 SOHC 3.5 years ago with 261,000 km (now over 362,000) on it. It's a plain jane with minimal electricals on it- lights, heater, rear defog, and radio.   The first year it was fine, but has gone through 6 replacement alternators since (just put on #7). The battery has been changed twice with the alts. Some of those alts have failed in as little as a week, others lasting 6 months. Some of the alts were making a low volume med-high pitched whistle, after failure.    Both my mechanic and I are stumped. We both have never seen or heard of such an occurence before.   Anybody have ideas on what is causing these failures?   Thanks, Argus462
