Get a test light and find out where the power is not coming through. Check the fuse, relay and resistor pack located on the evaporator case.

How do you get power to electric antenna on 1975 Buick Electra?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If it had a power ant. before the easiest would be to find the break in the wire so it works as it did. If it's new then you will have to run FUSED power to it from a source in the fusebox through a switch that is able to control the up & down.

It is at the engine end of the upper rad hose. Remove the housing and there it is. When replacing it make sure the spring goes toward the engine/

How do i replace the starter on an 1989 Buick Electra?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

first disconnect the battery and do not reconnect until completely through installing the starter.the starter is located right above the cross member in the middle of the car right behind the front bumper. to remove the old one you first have to remove the plastic dust cover. disconnect the two wires from the soleniod which is facing the passenger side of the car. then lossen the starter bolts, one you can see from in front of the cross member and the other from the back side of the cross member. the bolts are torqued down pretty tightly so be careful not to bust knuckles, I suggest using a breaker bar to help get leverage. be careful getting the old starter out it's really heavy, you can rest it on the cross member if you need to, just don't let it fall on yourself.keep the shim/shims from the old starter though there might not be any. sometimes you don't need shims I typically use what was there previously. to install your new starter if possible get someone to help. it's easier for one person to hold the new starter in place and person #2 start the bolts in the holes. make sure the bolts are correctly threaded before trusting the weight of the starter on them, if they aren't the starter can drop causing very painful injury to you or itself. if you have a torque wrench there is a specific amount the factory recomends tightening the bolts I however don't know it. I strongly recomend either purchasing a torque wrench or at least borrowing one. if one is not availble tighten the bolts as tight as you can and make sure you check them a few days later if they aren't tight enough the starter will loosen itself. connect the wires to the new starter in case you don't remember the larger wire goes to the top and the smaller to the bottom. the dust cover is a pain to get back on, the car will run without the cover but a lot of grime will get in there and could possibly cause future problems. if the starter makes weird grinding noises (while starting) you might have to go back and change the shim or shims. good luck

Where is the thermostat located on a Buick Electra?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It's best to know the year, model, and engine information. That being said, here's my view... The thermostat will most likely be on the intake manifold, where the upper radiator hose connects to the engine. The "housing" is kind of a "elbow" that connects the hose to the manifold. Two bolts will hold the housing in place, and there may be any number of things stuck on top of it. There will also be a smaller hose, on the housing, that connects to the water pump. It's actually rather easy to open this housing, and replace the thermostat. Don't be surprised if the housing does not come loose easily. Old gaskets can hold pretty tightly. I normall just LIGHTLY tap the housing, with a hammer, until it comes loose. Hope this helps!

How do you take apart the dashboard ignition on a 1967 Buick Electra?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It's been a while, but I believe the trim ring on the dash around the key cylinder unscrews and the ignition comes out the back

There should be a small hole in the face, insert key and turn ignition to "on" position, insert a wire (paper clip) into small hole and pull on key, the lockset should pull out, this will allow you to remove the trim ring around the key cylinder.

When you turn on your heater on your 1976 buick electra it does not blow any air at all nor does the ac blow any air what could be the problem?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

First find out if the blower works. To do this disconnect the hot wire from the blower and use a jumper wire from the positive of the battery and connect it to where that hot wire was. if it does not go;;; then check that the blower motor is grounded.

How do you change fuel pump on a 1985 buick elctra?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The fuel pump is in the fuel tank on a 1985 Buick Electra. Disconnect the battery. Unhook the filler neck. While holding the tank up with a jack, remove the tank straps. Lower the tank enough to disconnect the fuel lines and wiring. Take the tank out and remove the top plate to replace the pump. Install everything that was removed.
