I have one and most of the folks on the Impala SS forum believe the speed to be 145. I've personally had mine to 144 and that was all of it. I have a few mods on mine as well.

How can you determine the switch pin-out and how to wire a 1959 Chevy Impala headlamp switch to use it in a different vehicle?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

To determine the switch pin-out, you can use a multimeter to identify the terminals for power, ground, and the different switch functions. When wiring the 1959 Chevy Impala headlamp switch to a different vehicle, consult the wiring diagram for both vehicles to match up the functions of the switch with the corresponding wires in the new vehicle's electrical system. It's important to double check the voltages and wire connections to ensure compatibility and prevent any damage to the electrical components.

How do you change check engine light bulb in 2001 impala?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Open the hood of your Impala and remove the negative battery cable with your socket set.

Sit in your driver's seat and look at the clear plastic shield that rests in front of your odometer and other gauges. You will have to first remove this shield.

Find the two screws that hold the clear plastic shield in place. They are located at the top rim of the shield. Remove them with a Phillips screwdriver. Pull the plastic shield out and set the two screws safely inside it so you do not lose them.

Place one hand on each side of the instrument board and jiggle it slightly util one side or the other moves forward. Pull the entire panel forward slightly. However, do not pull too hard, as there are an abundance of wiring harnesses attached to the back.

Locate the small, clear light bulb. Remove it with your finger and stick the replacement bulb in its socket. Replace the instrument panel and clear plastic shield.

Replace the negative battery cable.

How do you install heater core 2003 Impala?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The heater core is difficult to change on the Ford trucks. They have it buried in the plenum box and you have to remove the steering wheel, steering column, dash, evacuate the refrigerant system, drain the radiator, and remove the plenum box to get to the core. Replacing the core is easy, getting to it is a day's work.

You need to be sure that the heater core is really the problem before tackling this job. If you have a pool of coolant on the floor, you'll have to go after the core. If the problem is lack of heat, there are some things you need to eliminate before tearing into the truck. You need to make sure that coolant is flowing through the core. Check the temperature of the heater hoses going into the firewall when the engine is cool and see if they warm up together as the engine warms up. If both hoses get hot at about the same rate, this is a good indication that coolant is flowing through the core. You can also remove the hoses and flush the core with a water hose splice from Home Depot and a water hose. Water should flow unobstructed through the core.

If it appears that coolant is flowing and you don't have obvious leaks, the next step is to check the blend door. This door controls the air flow through the heater core and failure is common on Ford trucks. When the door breaks, it can block the flow of air through the core and kill heat and will also have an impact on AC. If the system seems to work intermittently, it's a good indication that the door is broken and rattling around randomly blocking or opening the passage to the core.

For diagnostic information on how to check the operation of the blend door and a cheap easy fix, check the heatertreater listing on Ebay or the web site at heatertreater.net. The dealer fix for the blend door is basically the same procedure for replacing the heater core, so it will be expensive. The HeaterTreater alternative will solve the problem at a fraction of the cost and work and is well within the capability of the average shade tree mechanic.

How do you hook up an amplifier kit to stock radio?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Most factory radios are not set up to be connected to amps. You can try a few tricks to get you started though... 1.) If you have access to the wiring harness in the back of the radio, look for two RCA jacks (male or female), and an orange or blue wire (remote wire) that wouldn't be connected to anything except the radio. If you do have these, simple extensions can be purchased to run those wires to any aftermarket amplifier. 2.) If the car/truck came with a factory amplifier (you would know if it did), you can simply remove that amplifier and have full access to all wires needed for an aftermarket amplifier. 3.) If you were feeling up to the challenge, you can disassemble your radio and look for a pre-amp. After a few modifications, you can wire the aftermarket amplifier through the original pre-amp. 4.) Last but not least, most aftermarket amplifiers need only a few wires to get started. A power wire (RED - always hot), a remote wire (Most of the time a BLUE wire - only has power when the radio is on <<hook up to a toggle switch in this case>>), and your audio inputs. There are a few amps that do not require RCA inputs and you can simply split off an existing rear spear wire and tie in to the amplifier.

Why does my 2001 impala flash security and car not start?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This is usually caused by a faulty passlock sensor requiring replacement of the ignition lock cylinder. To test:

Crank the engine momentarily (like you're trying to start it) then allow the key to return to the on/run position. Your check engine light should be on, and the radio should work, but turn the radio off if it's on, because you need to keep the battery charged.

Wait fifteen to seventeen minutes, then shut the key off and remove it. Then wait fifteen seconds (or longer) and start the engine. If it starts, you need a new lock cylinder. With the engine still running, press the key straight in. If the car stalls, you need an ignition switch also.

What is wrong if the radio in your 2001 Chevy Impala won't turn off but the dome light does?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The 2000 and up Impala's have a feature called RAP or Retained Accessory Power. This allows you to operate your radio and windows without the key or car being on for 10 min after you shut off the engine opening the doors will shut off the RAP and you will need to turn on the car again to roll up windows and such. I don't know what the cause of it is but we had that happen one day about 3 months ago. Prior to it not shutting off we got "garbled" reception from the radio..then when we parked the vehicle and started to exit the radio didn't shut off. We found the fuse (in the fuse box on the passenger side) and pulled the fuse and put it back in. We havn't had a problem since. Doesn't help you with the "why" questions but may help others from a dead battery. Karen

How do you replace the rear turn signal bulb on a 1996 Chevy Impala?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

At the top of the headlight there will be two horizontal bars that are either chrome or black. The normal position for this bar is clipped into a bracket on the radiator support. To change the light bulb, pull the bar out of the clip toward the front of the vehicle. Sometimes prying with a screw driver is helpful. After removing the bar from the clip pull straight up while rotating the bar from side to side. After removing the bars the headlamp will be able to be removed from the vehicle and provide access to the turn signal bulb. Re-install in reverse order of removal. Don't you just love that phrase. Good Luck
