Asked by Wiki User

first you need to remove the serpentine belt. best way to do this is to use a serpentine belt tool. then its actually very simple, there are three bolts that hold it in one up front, and two in the back, and then there is a plug on the bottom you have to unclip.

What size bolts required?

How do you replace the thermostat on a 1995 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Almost the same as any other car, find the upper radiator hose, it is a larger supple rubber hose that connects the top of the radiator to the engine block. Remove it from the engine block, there is most likely a bracket which would house the thermostat, simply remove this housing, scrape the old gasket material away, replace the thermostat and install a new gasket. Also, you don't need to crank down on these bolts like your life depends on it, just snug them well. Reattach the radiator hose and top of your coolant if you lost any.

Good Luck!!!

How do you reset the Check engine light on a 96 Oldsmobile Cutlass Sierra?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This has to be done with a OBD2 scan tool. You might be able to get your local Autozone or Advanced Auto parts to do it. But different government agencies have been telling them not to do it. So you either have to buy the scan tool to do it, or pay to have someone else do it. Its cheaper probly to do it yourself. I think AutoZone has a small hand held scanner tool for 50 bucks or so. Its the same tool they use to scan your car if you ask them too. Ask them to borrow it so you can reset your light, sometimes the let you do that too..

Where is the AC on an Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

AC was optional on the Cutlass Ciera in most years of its production. If so equipped, the controls are in the middle of the dashboard directly below the radio. If you are looking for where components are located, they are in various locations of the engine compartment, with exact placement depending on engine. Get a repair manual at an auto parts store for more information.

How can you identify where the low side service port on the AC system of a 1995 Oldsmobile Ciera?

Asked by Wiki User

Can't say from experience but they're generally up from near your condenser or near the firewall. If all else fails, find your AC compressor and trace your lines backwards.

How do you change out the flasher relay and where is it located on a 1993 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera?

User Avatar

On inside of ash trayMy 1993 Old Cutlass Ciera has the flasher relay in a pretty simple place--simple if you don't take out all the bolts on the kick panels and fuse center and glove box first, which I did, because directions in the Chilton Manual were almost non-existent, not to mention wrong. At any rate, while looking towards the engine of the car, the flasher on the 1993 is attached to the right rear side of the inside of the ash tray, which you have to remove so you can get to the relay.

To replace the cylindrical flasher relay, pull out the ash tray to its fullest, and remove the top two bolts inside, one on each side. Push the ash tray mostly in so you can access the bottom two bolts, one on each side. Pull out and lower the ash tray until the tube-looking bulb in the center, which is hidden behind the panel, appears. Don't pull out too far, as wires still connect this bulb. With a pliers, grab the left plastic side of the bulb where the wires connect, and slowly twist away from you, pulling out at the same time, until the bulb is freed. Lower the ash tray rear and pull a bit to the left until the cylindrical flasher appears. It is clamped to the very right side end of the ash tray. Pull it out of its clamps. Remove the flasher from the pair of wire plugs. You may have to use a regular screw driver to jimmy them loose. Replace the flasher. Reverse the process.

under dash on drivers sideOn my 87 Cutlass Ciera it was located under the dash, fairly close to the steering column. I had to remove a section of plastic to get at it. I changed mine out a few years ago so cant remember in any more detail where it was.

93 Olds Cutlass Ciera (Canadian)

Had the emergency flasher fail on my Ciera. Found it behind the glove box on

the passenger side of the car inside a brown coloured cover (about 3 in long,

2.5 in high and about 1.5 in wide). The turn signal flasher was mounted on the passenger side of the fuse box - you can see it when you remove the glove box. Hope this helps someone.

Antenna motor keeps running when antenna is shut off killing the battery What do you do?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The wiring diagram ahows that the power feeds the motor all the time but its turned on by connecting the negative side on thru a relay. if a short is found in the wire and it grounds out then the motor will try and run. So either a wire is grounded between the antenna and the relay. Or the relay could be bad.

Does the a c compressor use flat washers or o rings for 1993 Olds Cutlass Ciera S V6 3.3?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

On the 1993 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera S ,V6, 3.3 some of the AC Compressors had O Rings & others used flat washers. That Year they used some with O rings & some with flat washers. I called the Chevrolet Dealer where I bought mine & that is what they told Me. The Auto Parts place said the same thing. You have to look at Your old Compressor to tell. Mine has the Compressor with flat washers!!
