Is there a fuel system shutoff and reset on a 2001 Grand Am?
I have a 2001 and it does have a fuel shut off, but only activates when the passlock system is activated. If it seems to happen intermittently, have a new key made. My old keys and lock cylinder were worn out and causing the anti-theft system to engage. If you go through the 10-minute reset procedure (in your manual) it will start. I had a new key made (not cut from an existing key) and the problem has not happened again in over 6 months. Eventually I am told you would need a new ignition cylinder, but this is a cheaper temporary solution.
In short, the only fuel shut-off is the pass-lock fuel pump disabler.Hope that helps.
AnswerI have a 2000 Pontiac Grandam with the famous Ass-Lock system installed, had the same problem, very frustrating.Your anti-theft passlock system senses the RESISTANCE value across your ignition cylinder when your key is in it, over time your key will 'wear' the inside of your ignition cylinder and itself thus changing the 'R' ( resistance value ) to the trigger threshold and causing intermittent ' fuel shutoff ' problems due to Passlock. A new Key and ignition coil will fix the problem, OR there is an easy workaround.From inside the car, pull the center panel-shroud off, this is the plastic housing surrounding the stereo and climate controls, it is just clipped on and easily removed, once off you will be able to see and access the wire bundle coming off the rear of your ignition cylinder,you may need to remove some of the black insulating wrap to reveal the wires. You are looking for the only yellow wire, this is the ' R ' ( resistance sensing ) lead for your passlock, with the ignition turned on, cut this wire, the Passlock will assume sensor failure, illuminate the SECURITY light in your dash and bypass the fuel-shut-off portion of the protection system. If you wish you can remote a switch by addig about 5 bux worth of extra wire and a switch between the now cut ends of the yellow 'R' lead and routing the remote switch under the dash, this allows you to re-enable your passlock fuel bypass security system at your leisure.The only disadvantage to this workaround is the constant illumination of the SECURITY light, however your central locking and all other features remain fully functional and hey you won't have to spend another 10 minutes beating your dash waiting on the system to reset. Good Luck !Can old antifreeze cause an engine light to come on?
no, not unless it rusts the radiator and all the fluid leaks out
Not likely, but corrosion to some sensors that monitor your cooling system could. Antifreeze should be flushed and changed annually to protect the engine's cooling system from freezing and internal corrosion that can cause premature wear to more expensive parts.
How do you remove the dome light housing to replace the bulb on a 2000 Dodge Intrepid?
pull the whole light down from the head liner (it is just held on by 2 clips it will not break )then you pull the light itself from the holder change it and reinstall the complete light assy. to the head liner
Rubber oder coming from vents maybe caused by you're blower motor.If this is the case it should bemaking a growling sound or asqueeling like noise. If this is the case you're squirel cage maybe rubbing. Leaving a burningsmell.

Why a trunk lid will not close?
It is possible the trunk latch has been tripped with trunk up. Use your key fob/remote trunk release on inside and pop trunk. Now try and close. Please let me know if this helps.
What would cause a foul smell to come from the vents on a QX4?
if your vehicle has air conditioning the smell could be caused by build up of bacteria on the heater matrix and in the vents, as this bacteria decays it causes a smell inside the cabin, this can be resolved by purchasing air specialist air con cleaner the is sprayed into the sir vents. the smell can also be caused by the heating of leaking coolant from the heater matrix, this would also combined with the car steaming up, check the coolant level to see if it has dropped.
Ventilation filter: 1 - Behind glove compartment 2 - Behind lower instrument panel. 3 - It's clipped in. 4 - Remove lower filter, slide down upper filter, remove ventilation air filter. 6 - Replace and put clip back on.
Where does antifreeze go in a Dodge Intrepid?
Depends on the year, but in most, under the hood is a place It's called Coolant.
Is the PCM the same thing as a computer on 2001 intrepid?
The PCM is the powertrain control module ( engine computer ). There are also abs, airbag, transmission, body, cluster, and HVAC computers on a 2001 Intrepid.
How do I change heater core in a 1994 Dodge Intrepid?
Remove center console, remove bottom side of dashboard, disconnect electrical connections on outboard side of fuse panel and from steering column. There is also 3 or 4 other ones underneath ...just look around you should be able to figure out which other electrical connectors have to come off. Remove upper side of dasboard...kind of heavy...i recommend 2 people for this...
Go under hood and remove windshield wiper box for access to the heater core lines..remove.. (they may break as they are plastic from the factory) don't worry the new heater core is copper....Disconnect a/c lines from plenum and remove 3 or 4 nuts on the engine compartment side that hold on to the plenum.
Go back inside and remove 3 or 4 bolts that hold the plenum on from the inside and it will come out as an assy. Then just replace heater core and reassemble and recharge the a/c system...
It took me about 6 hours to do this with a lunch break....Kind of a hassle but it will save you alot of money..
What would cause a misfire in cylinder 6 on a 2001 dodge intrepid 3.2L?
Faulty: spark plug, spark plug wire, ignition coil, ignition module, fuel injector are the most common. Coolant leaking into a cylinder is another.
Internal engine problems such as burnt valve, broken valve spring, bent push rod, worn rings

If it has one, it'll be in your trunk, most likely mounted to the DaffleBoard (The area your speakers are mounted)
Change the brake fluid in 2000 Dodge Intrepid?
yes it can and it should be done every 30000 miles or 2 years
Check the plug wires as well, to insure that there is not a high voltage leakage. Check the wiring to the injector and the camshaft sensor. If all else fails it could be a computer issue.
How do you reset alarm system on Dodge Intrepid?
I used the remote to lock/unlock the doors and it reset the anti-theft on a 1997 Dodge Intrepid.
How do you loosen the tensioner for the Serpentine belt on a 2.7 engine Dodge Intrepid?
Use a 15mm wrench on the pulley and turn it counter-clock wise. That is for the power steering drive belt. Now for the air conditioner drive belt you would loosen the 2 bolts on the tensioner pulley bottom side with a 1/2" socket on a 3/8" driver. Do not remove bolts only loosen them slightly. Then, there is a slot on the left side of the tensioner pulley. Insert a 3/8" breaker bar into the slot and then crawl under the car to pull downward on the breaker bar. This will take a lot of effort. But not as much as is needed for putting the belt back on. Have fun!!!!!! My hands are all bloody. I just finished.
Why Dodge Intrepid 99 wont shut off after you turn off the switch and take the key out?
Defective ignition switch.
How do you replace the water pump on a 1995 Dodge Intrepid 3.5L?
If it's the same as my 97 3.5L it is located behind the timing cover. This is a 3 piece cover. Remove all 3 pieces, remove timing belt, and you can change water pump. Make sure not to mess timing up while your in there. I missed it by one tooth and had to go back in to fix it.
