i have a 2004 chevy monte carlo and the service engine soon light is on what does it mean?
This is the light for your security system. Shows that it is working.
The security system shuts the whole car down so that it cant be stolen.
How do you take a rheostat out of a 2003 monte carlo
Sometimes you can reset the security light on a Monte Carlo. Open all the doors and then lock them and close them. Next, use the key to unlock the front driver's side door. If this doesn't work, the car should be taken to a mechanic who can diagnose the problem. When the security light goes on, it can mean something in the security system is failing.
The light may turn on due to uncleanliness of the start key. For this reason, it must be cleaned.
you're breaking and entering!....... its suppose to but it goes off after a while.
Changing the brake light switch in your Chevrolet Monte Carlo is quite simple. The brake light switch simply plugs in and out.
It could be you're alarm if you have one. Or it might also be that the sensor for the alti-theft isn't working. I have a remote starter in my 1996 Monte Carlo and they had to by-pass the alti-theft and that is why mine is on.
in the trunk
No it does not, atleast not the 97 SS
kind of had same problem but turned out to be something else but a guy who had a Monte Carlo pulled up to us and told us if our problem was the security light to turn on the ignition to the on position do not start car and leave for 10 minutes and then turn off and then try starting car and that should reset the security light he said it happened to him and that is what Chevy told him to do and it worked for him.
Any time a warning light on the dash board comes on, it is an indication of something being wrong. It's a very simple concept. The lights are there to let the driver know that there is a problem.
