Best Answer

If you are talking about the fuel gauge moving on its own or when the vehicle comes to a stops this is controlled by the fuel level sensor it consists of a float, a wire float arm, and a ceramic resistor card.

The position of the float arm indicates the fuel level. The fuel level sensor contains a variable resistor which changes resistance in correspondence with the amount of fuel in the fuel tank.

If after you have scanned the vehicles computer and find no problems then to correct this you will need to replace the complete fuel pump, it only comes as complete unit...

What is the problem on 1999 Oldsmobile Silhouette if rear lights do not work at all?

All of my 2002 Silhouette outside lights had small leaks when I purchased the van used. I did not notice this when I bought it but shortly after, my rear lights all went out. I had to replace the whole assembly including the covers. I have not had any problems in the 4 years since I did that. After talking to several mechanics, I understand that is very common in the Silhouettes. Hope this helps.

On my 99 Silhouette, you open the hatch door, there is a half, to 3/4 circle that the tool from the jack fits in. Turn it, and the tire will come down. Depending on where you live, it might be rusty and sticky, so it won't want to come down very easy.
