Chevy Astro

Bad window seal?

It is the same as the front winshield , at least on the 2001 holds about a gallon

With the power on, turn the radio off and press the "SET" button on the right side of the station pre-set buttons. The display should show "SET" in the top right corner. Use the Scan/Seek buttons to set the time. The left arrow will increase the hours and the right will increase the minutes.

Be sure to read out the wires going to the motor. The motor may not be bad, unless the signs are obvious like grinding. A banging in the door isn't necessarily a bad motor, just the glass coming loose from the rail or a rail arm out of the rail slide or a bolt has fallen out. Troubleshoot the problem with the panel off before you replace parts.

Remove the door panel. There are screws in the arm rest. Tape the glass to keep it in the up position and in place. Disconnect the electrical input. Drill out the rivets holding the motor to the door plate. Make sure you have fasteners and a means to install them. disconnect the rail from the motor input shaft. remove the motor. Installation is opposite the removal.

It wasn't built with any.

There should be a diagram under the hood, or radiator fan shroud, on my 91 awd its on my power steering canister underneath the windshield, just look at that and follow the instructions. hope this helps

Bad news, the sender unit is inside the gas tank. You might check to see if a wire broke but I doubt it. I would just use the trip meter and watch your milage. VBD

The simplest detection of a magnetic field is done by another magnet.

Or by an apparatus such as a Fluxgate magnetometer or similar.

The maximum motor power of the Chevrolet Astro differs due to the fact that there are several different types of this car. Looking at the 1995 version, however, one can determine that the maximum motor power of the Chevrolet Astro is 195 hp at 4,000 rpm.

very easy! I have this same van. Conversion van? Remove interior cowling, find distributor cap, the center most spark plug wire will lead you to the coil which should be in the front of the engine. You will probably need to access it from under the van unless you have smaller hands. Should have two or four bolts that are easy to remove and cost new at autozone for about $22.00. Even if it is not the right price to correct your problem it will increase fuel mpg if it was original. I went from 13 miles mpg with a/c on to almost 15/17 highway. If your problem was stalling at stop lights, and your belt is making noise, take it from me, change your serpertine belt AND PULLEY$110 in parts. Changing the belt and pulley solved my stalling problems. Ohh and have you changed the fuel pump/filter any time within the last 6 years, if not you may consider it. Hard to remove tank without spilling 6 gallons of gas but easy to install, just make sure to install new FORD fuel clips when you reinsert the fuel line to the fuel tank or you may have to remove the tank a few times after driving it around the block a couple time and it wont restart. Pepboys sells two clips for 2.99 and the second clip could replace the second fuel clip on the frame below the passenger door along the frame rail.

The door lock relay is the culprit. where it is I have not a clue so far.

I have a 1994 B3000 that started doing that several years back. It was a relay that was located within a black box on the drivers side of the engine (I believe there are 3 relays in the box). I found that one of the relays was sticking. When lightly 'tapped' on it would release and the engine would start. After replacing it, the problem went away. Note Did they have the "Fuel Cutoff Switch" in those years of pickups? Typically, it's designed to remove power from the fuel system in the case of an imact or jarring. Check to see if it was somehow popped, and just push the button back in if you have one. Should be under the dash, right above or at the top of the carpet/floor mat passenger side. Little box with a single plug and a red button at the top typically. It may also be the ignition module. I had the same problem with my '94 B-3000. If it sometimes dies on you while driving it probably is the same thing. After replacing it the problem went away.The module is easy to replace. It is located on tn the front of the vehicle , drivers' side next to the radiator. Also tapping it several times may get you by until it can be replaced.
good Luck.

i paid 300 today .. feel so ripped off

Should be 1 bolt in each corner of seat

This sounds like a vacuum line problem. First thing I would check would be the vacuum lines and check valves contained in line with them, as well as the vacuum canister. Could also be a problem under the dash with the vacuum actuators in the HVAC unit. Another slight possibility also could be that the controller isn't functioning properly. Hope this helps. Good Luck!

no

It should be at the bottom front of the engine by the timing cover.

if the miles on the engine aren't too high, then just replace the head gaskets. if the whole engine is tired go ahead and swap out the motor. its a lot cheaper to do the gaskets then to buy a new motor.

Remove the positive battery cable from your 1999 Chevy Astro battery. Disconnect the cables from the front of the starter. Remove the starter retaining bolts. Reverse the process to install the new starter.

I had the same problem with my '97. It took me awhile but I finally figured out that You have to loosen the inside trim panel (left inside panel) by removing the screws then pull out the panel just far enough to squeeze your hand behind it and then you can feel around for the locking mechanism rod and work it manually.Be careful not to pull the plastic trim too far out or you'll break the side that's still connected behind the hinge side.

Here's is some basic step by step instructions to replace the back door on Chevy AStro Vans 1992-2001 models. (when the door is shut and the handle broke)

1) previous answer suggest loosening the inside trim.

a) the three bottom screws on the inside trim near the floor need to be removed or loosened first.

b) the three "Star" screws holding the window to the door need to be removed

2) Carefully 'pop' and pull the inside panel from the door

a) don't worry the connectors are straight so horizontally will do

b) the top two connectors above the window don't mess with. you will probably break them and don't need to 'popped' to loosen the inside trim.

3) carefully reach inside the panel near the top above the silver brace bar.

a) lift up on the locking mechanism to unlock the door. it will stay in place once done.

b) push down on the door handle mechanism and carefully push the door open.

4) once the door is open. remove the 4 screws and the side panel to access the door handle region.

a) remove the hex washer nuts from the door handle

b) detach the silver metal bar horizontally from the handle

c) seat the new handle.

d) tighten the hex washer nuts down on the handle

e) re-attach the silver metal bar into the new handle

5) put the door back together with the inside panel

6) try the door a couple times so that it works

7) reattach the black side panel and you're done

I've done this 3 times on Astro Van door handles and this time it took 18 minutes! yeah.

have a 89 Chevy astro van starts good till warms up the start to chock and then stalls
