Is there an after market stereo that will work with the steering wheel controls for a Pontiac grand prix?

Asked by Wiki User

yea the same one that it had u can probably get it at Pontiac dealer ship or at the junk yard

---------------------------------------

Well there isn't necessarily a radio with that feature but you can buy an adapter for it. The one I ended up getting was the PAC SWI-X Steering Wheel Controls Interface. It worked out perfectly for me. But be sure to read about it first and make sure that it is compatible with your new stereo.

Asked by Wiki User

1. The a/c system may be low on freon because on R134a systems being just a couple of ounces low can cause this..

2. The evaporator may be restricted, if so then it will need to be replaced..

3. In side a/c - heater control doors are leaking and or not working correctly..

The wipers on your 2001 Intrigue still work but they stop in the up position Anyone know how to cure this?

Answer

1)If that doesnt work then after you remove the plastic cover and take off the nut...which is 13mm size, your going to need to get like channel locks or vice grips and pull the wiper arms off. 2)Once they are off, remove the cowl cover. You might need to get a small screwdriver and pry up the plastic screw and get a needle nose plier and pull the screw out and then the other little plastic thing the screw went into you have to pry out as well...it's not hard. 3)Then once you remove the screws, remove the lining strip and disconnect the wiper hose. 4)Now once the cowl cover is removed you'll see another plastic cover on the driver side. Remove that. There's a little white plastic thing holding it down. Take that off. Be careful because it might tear. If it does don't worry then it makes it easier to remove the cover. 5)Now you see a black plastic cover covering the gears and stuff. That just pops off. Take that off. 6)Now there's this torx head screw, just break it lose. Once its broken loss that whole gear thing will turn freely from the motor. You'll see an arm that stick up at an angle from the gear.It should be sticking up and to the right. It should be connected to another arm that actually pushes and pulls the blades. Turn the gear so that the arm is turned to the bottom left position. You might have to adjust it just a little to one side or the other but its in that general direction. 7) Once its set in that direction, re tighten the torx headed screw. Now put one blade on to see if its set correctly. Now if its not set correctly just adjust the wiper arm or readjust the gear. 8) Once you have it set. Do everything in reverse when you put it back together and you should be okay.

olds wiper problem

if you pry off the plastic cover on the wiper blades- there will be a large nut- if this is not tightened down enough it will let the wipers shift from the original setting and even strip out some of the aluminum around the hole reposition the blade in the right spot and re tighten the nut

For the perfectionist

If you'd rather do it without breaking things, go get a re manufactured wiper motor assembly and replace it, assuring that the holes in the arms aren't stripped out.

Why does the fan to the heater only work on high on a 96 Chevy Cavalier?

Asked by Wiki User

I just replaced mine on a 97 cav z24 on 01/24/09. In the passenger side, remove the bottom panel that is under the glove box. On the blower motor (its circular and black you can't miss it) look for a white plug that connects to it (should be about 1/4 of an inch away from the firewall). The white plug is held to the blower by 2 5.5mm screws. Remove those 2 screws (there is one screw on each side of the plug and opposite of eachother), separate the wiring from it, connect it to the new part and replace it back in. It is a simple procedure thankfully. **You must have some sleek and small tools for the removal of the 5.5mm screws. There is extrely limited room and can't be done with a convential socket wrench or screw driver.** Let me know if you need more help with it.

the blower motor resistor is at fault.each level of fan controler needs more voltage replacement should be very cost freindly. The above answer is correct. It is more than likely the Resistor Pack. They are not that expensive, especially if you can find one at a salvage yard. The hard part is finding it. Try www.autozone.com and look in the component location section. You may find the location there. I would suspect that if you have it replaced at a dealership, it may run as high as $200. Most of this will be labor. Try removing the glove box and look around behind it. Good hunting. the location of this part is like all resistors for heating mounts to heater duct box. this being passenger side close to fire wallunder dash with two screws holding inplace close to blower motor

What is the purpose of AC drain pan Is it for overflow or does the AC drain into it?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I am not an HVAC personel, but I have worked maintenance, and see quite a few different styles.

I guess it really depends. I have seen drain pans that have little pumps in them and it pumps the condensed water into a condensation line, and I have also seen it drained directly into a condensation line.

It really depends on how your a-coil is set, and if other a/c units are vertically stacked or in a horizontal row. If it is low to the floor and it has no drain lines near it, it will probably have a pan with a pump, but it is more efficient to have one drain, and a condensation line that stacks all the units.

I have never seen one that drained just into a pan, I'd think that would kind of defeat the purpose of extracting humidity from a building.

How do you bleed air out of a 1997 Intrepid 3-3 liter engine coolant system?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

THE BEST WAY IS TO SLIGHTLY ELEVATE THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE, JACK IT UP, THE REASON FOR JACKING IT UP IS TO ENSURE ALL THE BUBBLE FLOAT TO THE HIGHEST POINT AND GET OUT OF THE SYSTEM. NOW MAKE SURE YOUR HEATING IS SET TO "FULL HEAT" AND TURNED ON "LOW" FAN SPEED. THEN OPEN THE BLEEDER VALVE LOCATED ON TOP OF THE THERMOSTAT HOUSING, IF YOUR COOLING SYSTEM IS EMPTY NOW IS THE TIME TO FIL IT UP, U SHOULD HEAR A GENTILE HISSING SOUND AS U POUR IT IN, THIS IS AN INDICATION OF THE AIR ESCAPING. WHEN U SEE THE COOLANT COME OUT THE BLEEDER U KNOW THE AIR IS GONE. TO MAKE SURE U GOT ALL OF IT OUT TURN THE ENGINE ON, WITH THE RESERVOIR CAP FOR THE COOLANT BOTTLE OFF, OPEN THE VALVE ON THE THERMOSTAT HOUSING AGAIN, KEEP ENGINE AT IDLE DO NOT REV IT, ADDING FLUID UNTIL THERE IS A STEADY STREAM DRIPPING OUT. LET ENGINE REV UNTIL COOLING FAN GOES ON WHEN IT GOES ON U WILL PROABALY HAVE TO ADD FLUID TO THE RESERVOIR DO NOT LET IT GO LOW KEEP IT CONSTANT. ONCE THE FAN HAS STOPPED PUT CAP BACK ON RESERVOIR AND YOU'RE DONE.

What could be the reason for the interior of the car smelling like gasoline whenever you fill the gas tank on a 1992 Honda Accord?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Well,its sounds to me like a leak has developed possibly on the top half of the fuel tank.It could be that once the fuel has gone below the leak area you would not notice the gas smell. Lay a piece of cardboard under the fuel tank area and watch for any sign of a leak over night. Make sure your tank is full when you do this. You may have to drop the tank to repair or have your local mechanic perform the repair.

What is the ohm reading on a fuel injector?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

An Ohm reading is the amount of resistance through a fuel injector. A fuel injector is a solonoid that controls fuel delivery. Inside the injector, there is a coil of wire. When you measure the Ohms across the injector, you are checking the amount of resistance in that coil of wire. Each injector manufacturer has their own acceptable measurement, so check with them for proper readings.

How do you diagnose a rear speaker problem on a 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

well, maybe you're having the same problem I'm having. sometimes the rear speaker's volume will cut out, and sometimes it'll come back on. seems random.

my brother suggested checking the connections to the back speakers for rust, or to see if they're loose. i haven't done this yet, but if i do and i can fix the problem, I'll reply back.
