Where is the relay for the Daytime Running Lights in a 1999 3-1 L Malibu?
It is in the fuse box under the hood next to the air filter.
Why is your Gm van low on power and backfires through the throttle body?
Check that the distributor wiring is right ( 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2) Most common problem is criss-crossing the no. 5 and no. 7 plug wires
Does a 1999 Pontiac Montana have a cabin air filter?
Yes, it is accessed inside the glove compartment

It is located directly under the throttel body.
AnswerWhere is the thermostat on a 2002 Pontiac Grand Am?" Answerwhere is the thermostat on a 2000 Pontiac grand am Instructions on how to change a thermo..Hello, this page has instructions on how to install a new thermostat on a 99+ Grand Am. Also, not listed on the page as an instruction but something I did when changing the thermostat was to take off the throttle body which made getting to the inlet manifold bolts much easier. The bottom bolt was particulary hard to get too, the top bolt was not too bad. Good Luck.http://www.grandamgt.com/thermostat-pfyc.HTML
How do you install a headlamp bulb in 2002 Pontiac Grand Am?
It goes in from the rear. If you can't get to it you may have to remove the light assy.
How do you change the driver side front headlight bulb on a 2002 Acura RSX?
1. Remove the battery.
The rest is pretty much straight-forward. Taking the battery out is a bit of a pain, but other than that it's pretty painless.
-----------------------Its a pain in the a$$ to be honest. Its easier just to bring it to the dealer and have them do it. It will cost you about 30 bucks. If you do it yourself, you have to remove the battery and have very small hands to get into there. Also when you replace your battery you will need to reprogram your radio because of the anti theft device.
How do you replace blower motor resistor on 2001 pathfinder?
I WOULD TROUBLE SHOOT FIRST:
- 1
Locate the fuse for the blower motor in the owners/service manual. Test the fuse, with the ignition key on, using the 12-volt test light. Attach the clip lead of the test light to a good ground like a bolt screwed into metal, and touch the sharp probe end to the terminals on the fuse. An indication of power at both terminals of the fuse determines that the fuse is good. If one of the terminals has power and the other does not, the fuse is bad. Replace the fuse as needed.
- 2
Unplug the blower motor and test for power using the 12-volt test light in the same manner as explained in Step 1. Testing at the motor itself eliminates the possibility of confusion caused by complicated electronic blower controls found in Electronic climate control systems. Test for power at all the blower speeds by moving the blower speed switch through all positions.
A faulty resistor loses power at different positions on the switch. High blower speed has direct power to the motor from the switch. If there is no power indicated on high blower speed, the problem is most likely the switch or the fuse. If there is power indicated on high blower speed, but not low or mid range, the problem is the blower resistor.
- 3
Test for ground at the blower motor if there is power indicated at all ranges, but the motor does not function. Most blower motors ground through the case of the motor when it is screwed into place or by a small ground strap from the case to the body of thecar. Over time, the ground connection can become corroded or loose, causing the motor to function intermittently
THEN IF YOU NEED TO
- 1
Locate the blower motor and look around the outside and close to the motor for a 2-by-3-inch plate held on by two or four small screws. There will be an electrical connector plugged into it with five or six wires, depending on the vehicle type and heating and air conditioning type of control panel.
- 2
Test the resistor before replacing it. It is always recommended to test any electronic unit before replacing because there are a multitude of things that could cause the same symptoms. It only takes a few minutes and can qualify the assumption that a part is bad. It will save money to replace or repair the right part the first time.
- 3
Check the speeds by turning the fan conrol to all positions. Take note which fan speeds work and which speeds do not work. If the fan works only on one speed the blower motor resistor is very likely bad.
- 4
Check the fuses if the fan speeds do not work. The fuses for the interior heating and air conditioning fan are usually under the hood in the fuse and relay center. If the fuse looks good, then take it out and turn the ignition key on and use the volt meter set at 20 volts DC. Check to make sure that there is voltage to the fuse. If not, check for an open circuit to the fuse.
- 5
Check the relay to determine if there is power at the fuse. The relay should have two of the four terminals showing power. With the key on and the fan turned on, remove the relay and put it back in, listening for it to click. If it does not click, then replace the relay.
- 6
Check the voltage at the electrical connector on the blower motor resistor to see if the fuse and relay are good. Make sure that power is present at the connector with the key on and the fan switch on. There should be power at two terminals of the blower motor resistor. If only one terminal has power, replace the resistor. If two terminals have power, replace the blower motor itself. Remove the screws and unplug the connector to remove the blower motor resistor. Put the new one in its place by screwing it back in and plugging in the wiring connector
2001 Pontiac grand am flashers keeps clicking after turn signal is off?
You might want to check the fuse first. But my guess is your turn signal switch is going bad. I had mine fixed at the local Pontiac dealer as it had been recalled.
***
Forget the fuse, its a faulty hazard switch. GM service bulletin 03043A I believe is the one that covers the recall on 00s and 01s (02s and 03s had the SAME faulty part number and the SAME problem with no recall- bastards). Should get it done free at your dealer.
The problem is grease contamination of the contacts in the turn signal switch. You can go to the dealer and spend $300+ or you can fix it yourself for the cost of 3 feet of scotch tape and about 4 q-tips. You will need a Torx T-20 and T-10 screwdriver as well. I fixed mine in less than 30 minutes based on the instructions found on the web. Go to http://www.gaownersclub.com/forum/sh...+switch&page=2 . Sorry if it's not an exact link but I got the directions and pictures on that site to fix mine. Good luck!!!!
Both answers, hazard switch and turn signal switch, can be correct. The hazard switch for the 2000 and 2001 Grand Am's were recalled and caused the annoying clicking. I had that done on my car and that solved the problem for 6 years. When the problem started again I put a new hazard switch in but it did not fix the problem. Cleaning out the grease which had many metal filings and replacing it with vaseline fixed the problem. It is relatively easy repair.

Lift bench seat up and out
you will see bolts or clips at the lower end of the seat back release these and lift straight upward to release upper clips of the seat back
Where is the therostat on a 2000 Pontiac grand am 2.4 twin cam motor?
if you look under the exhaust manifold there is a metal pipe that runs between the oil pan and the frame. the metal hose connects to the thermostat housing under the manifold. you must remove the exhaust manifold heat shield on the top of manifold to get to the 2 8mm bolts to remove the thermostat. make sure you take note of the direction of flow from the old thermostat.
How do you change alternator on a 1995 Grand Am?
Disconnect your battery first. Then remove the belt you can buy or borrow a tool for the tension pulley or use a long bar just be careful where you rest it. Remove the nut on the back of the alternator holding the power wire then remove the to bolts holding the alternator.
Do you have to depressurize the fuel system before disconnecting a fuel line?
No, but it is safer if you do.
