I had a very similar problem with my 92 olds. with a 3.3 litre engine. tryed to find the problem for months. I recently had my transmission replaced, and they used a parts store torque converter switch. i was told it needed a factory part to work correctly. It worked! car is perfect now I hope it works for you ! Just got the 1997 olds repaired....the problem was a vacuum hose. The bill says "repair vacuum leak behind the throttle body". Thanks to this site for being there for us and to the person who tried to help.

It is due to your daytime running light not working properly or a burnt headlight, check your bulbs. I had the same problem and that was the problem.

What fuse controls my license plate lights on a 99 Oldsmobile intrigue?

The same one that controls every other marker and running light. If your license plate light is malfunctioning, the fuse is not the problem. Not to mention a fuse doesn't actually control anything - it just provides protection to that circuit in the event it gets overloaded, but that notwithstanding, your problem isn't a fuse.


In a 1998 Oldsmobile Bravada why do your headlights stay on when running?

Your vehicle is equipped the Daytime Running Lights, (DRL). A daytime running lamp (DRL, also daylight running lamp or daytime running light) is a lighting device on the vehicle that are installed in pairs. They automatically are switched on when the vehicle is moving forward, and is intended to increase the conspicuity of the vehicle during daylight conditions.

I have an Oldsmobile alero 99 and the security light is constantly on however the car starts leading me to believe the security feature is not working. How can I fix the problem?

I wouldn't fix it if i was you.....I have a 2000 alero, and the security system (passlock) keeps it from starting often, and it seems to be a big problem with them. So if your security system isn't working but the car is running fine I wouldn't mess with it..


Why aren't my lights working in 2000 Olds Alero fuses replaced lamps replaced still not working running lights work but no brake lights except the light bar on trunk?
