User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You have to remove the drivebelt as part of the process. You'll need a special tool for it. Ask any big auto store about it, or a GM service center. On mine, I took a look and really didn't want to mess with it.

What happens when the master cylinder goes out in a Buick Skylark?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

When you press and hold the brake pedal it will slowly move to the floor. It can also have a catastrophic failure and go straight to the floor with no stopping ability at all. If you hold the brake pedal down and it slowly moves to the floor any at all, replace the master cylinder.

Removing the steering wheel is a difficult task to do by hand alone. A person needs to buy a steering wheel puller, follow the directions on the package, it will help remove the steering wheel by apply pressure to the middle of the steering wheel and by pulling the rest of it up.

Why would the 'check engine' light and 'ETS off' light turn on at the same time on a '97 Olds Achieva when the ETS system is on?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

When there is a failure that sets the check engine light, the vehicle responds by going into a limp mode. This means traction control and ETS are automatically turned off for safety and to prevent further problems with the vehicle.

Your horn on your 1997 buick skylark wont stop blowing had to remove fuse cant find the relay how do you test replace the horn switch?

User Avatar

Asked by Janaya

Had this problem with my 95. You need to remove the pad that sits over the airbag, and use an ohm meter to check if either of your horn switches are shorted. Most likely, one is and you can bypass it while retaining the functionality of the other. Not a job i would recommend for the do-it-yourself-er. Take it to the mechanic for this one

== Another possibility is that your horn pad expanded in the heat- happened to me. It, unfortunately, involves replacing the entire airbag assembly. Very costly, and if you attempt it yourself, get a HAYNES manual to disable the airbag.

Torque specs are very specific, based on whether or not the bolts are reusable, and if they are going through or into aluminum. you need to get the correct number and pattern for your motor from a repair manual or autozone.com.
