#7 of 12 BMO and Heater by margieb3 Nov 30, 2007 (9:17 am)
I have a 2002 Rendevous CX and I had a new transmittion put in in June 2006, when I collected the vehicle and paid the $2600 bill I noticed that the service light was on....after more 3 visits to the dealership I was told it was the BMO....my interior lights don't work or flash on and off, and periodically all the dashboard lights and indicators fail.....also my heater/blower only works now on high....are these things anyone else has had issues with? and are they things I can fix myself? I would appreciate any feedback.... Replies to this message: pertuset (Feb 22, 2009 1:09 pm)

Replying to: margieb3 (Nov 30, 2007 9:17 am) Well, we took it to a shop and had it flushed and filled with new anti freeze, and a new thermostat. Something else we had done was when we had it flushed and refilled, we did not use the Dex-Cool anti-freeze. We had if refilled with regular anti-freeze. The Dex-Cool has some faults to it. It will eat the seals out of the engine and then you will see leaks. I hope this helps out in any way.

Replying to: ray80 (Nov 08, 2007 3:54 am) Sounds like an air problem to me to. Have recently changed your air filter by chance? If the air mass system isn't set up and everything all lined up perfectly, the car does have a tendency to run warmer. At least that is what took my a long time to find out. From the day that I replaced the stock air filter with a new K&N air filter, I had problems until I took the time to really be careful putting everything back together. By the way, the K&N filter will give you a lot more boost to.
