Your key broke off in the ignition how do you install a new ignition and take the old one out?
Drill it. Or call a locksmith and have them do it. They may be able to pull the broken key out.
Where is the Signal Hazard flasher location on a 1996 Thunderbird?
Should be either on or around close by the fuse box under the dash board. It is a larger round chrome fuse the width of about the size of a half dollar.
I have read a common problem with the 90-93 Oldsmobile cutlass is that the ground on the shift silinoid can cause it to lose 3rd and 4th gear, I am trying to figure out where it is located.
Please if you know email scott@moteladvertising.com
Which steering column is interchangeable with a 1991 olds cutlass cerria?
the best way is too call a big savage yard they can tell you what parts interchange for sure instead of people guessing on here
Where is the thermostat on a 2003 Sonata?
Look for a removable housing at the engine end of the upper radiator hose
How do I open hood from outside when hood release lever is broken from inside 1987 BMW 325i?
These cars have hoods that open on the windshield side with the hinge toward the bumper. Apparently I'm not the only one having this problem Generally, cars have a manual hood release latch just inside the grill of the car, under the hood.
Why do all the lights inside go off when you turn on the headlights?
They should just dim. By turning the headlights on, the engineers assumed it would be dark. Often there's a knob or wheel on the dash where you can adjust the brightness of your gauge lights.
How can you bypass the VAT device?
VATS - Vehicle Anti-Theft System GM introduced the VATS or Vehicle Anti-Theft System in 1986.
Basically the VATS security system must read one of 15 resistor values to allow the vehicle to start. Use an incorrect value, you'll lock out or put the vehicle into a no crank situation for up to 10 minutes. (although I really never sat and timed it) Therefore, your well advised to have an ohm meter. (if your as lucky as me, it seems to always be the last resistor in the pack that works) Use a meter, or it makes for a real long day !
I read somewhere, that when GM introduced the VATS system it significantly reduced the theft of GM vehicle equipped with such a system.
The VATS system disables the engine starter if the systems module detects an incorrect, or non existent resistor value at the time of ignition. Within the Key there is a small built in resistor pellet.
The system was enhanced to also include a fuel shut-off, sometime later.
As I mentioned before, there are 15 different resistor values. As long as you are within 5% +/- of the measured value, you'll be able to bypass the system.
The newer system is called PassKey II. (Passlock 2)
VATS and the PassKeyII systems basically operate the same, except they moved the resistor into the lock cylinder.
BYPASS for a Remote Starter
Most everyone who is visiting this site is looking for a bypass for use with a remote starter.
If you are in a lock out situation and you need to know how to bypass the VATS, PassKey I or PassKeyII systems, this is also your quick fix.
To bypass GM VATS system:
Drop the steering column cover to access the VATS wire harness coupler. Ordinarily, the wire will be 2 white wires or possibly white and purple. GM has used a variety, but they should be within in a colored jacket, equally as varied in color, and are 2 light gauge wires. There will be a connector.
With the Key inserted, Un-plug the connector, and measure the KEY side of the harness
Record the value.
Refer to the Chart. Look up your value on the chart. It should be one of the values on this chart, or very close. (Must be within 5% +/- )

Alternatively, measure the resistance of the VATS Resistor Pellet by placing the resistance of the VATS Resistor Pellet by placing an Ohm meter set at 20k ohms on each side of the Pellet.
Average the 2 values, and select the value closest this average.
To disable the system, insert this resistor, into the CIRCUIT side of the connector.
Set volt meter at 20k setting touch both sides of key pellet take reading and compare to chart below
Acceptable ranges)
1 402 ohms (acceptable range 386-438)
2 523 ohms (acceptable range 502-564)

14 9530 ohms (acceptable range 9149-9931)
15 11800 ohms (acceptable range 11328-12292)
Quick Note: if you have the type of key that has the resistor pelet on the key you can check the resistance simply by measuring the resistance with a multimeter by connecting a lead to each side of the black pellet where the metal point is in the middle of the pellet.
Where is the crankcase sensor on a 93 Oldsmoble Cutlass Supreme?
If you are referring to the Crankshaft sensor, or crank angle sensor it is located on the passenger side of the engine compartment near the harmonic balancer. (For the 3.1 L)
I have a 95 with a 3.1L and it had intermitant missing and starting problems. I replaced the crank position sensor (which was located behind the harmonic balancer) and the camshaft position sensor (located under the power steering pump) and it corrected the problem.
Your transmission has a reverse but no forward gears?
Because you are out of transmission fluid!! Been there, done that. Check your transmission fluid, it's probably very low. Add some and you should be good to go. You should still get your transmission checked out by a mechanic though, because you probably have a leak.
How do you tighten the retractor on a 92 olds cutlass supreme convertible seat belt?
You will probably end up having to replace the belt as I don't think there is a way to tighten it.
Where is wiper relay for a 1994 Olds Cutlass Supreme?
There's no single replacable relay, power is fed through the switch and the electronics are inside the motor cover.
Why is your oldsmoblie cutlass cerria backfiring?
More than likely it is out of time. Have the timing checked. If you have changed the plugs or plug wires, you have them hooked up wrong.
The drivers side rear tire keeps locking up what could be the problem?
ANSWER
Ok this is easy its a 10-25 dollar hose take your back left tire off and look at the caliper there is a black rubber brake hose bolted to it it could be on either side of the caliper but usually in the back of it that hose could be clogged up or swelled up on the inside I'm a master mechanic and usually people jump to conclusions and say o no my caliper or master cylinder is bad and 95% of the time that is not the case what happens is from the brakes being hit so much and the caliper getting hot that hose gets hot and swells up well over a long period of time the opening inside the hose closes up and gets real tiny and when you press the brakes the force from you pressing the pedal and from the brake booster lets fluid go into the caliper and activate the brake pads but the fluid cannot get back out of the caliper since there is nothing on the car to force the fluid back out of the caliper. if you replace that hose and bleed the brakes you will not have anymore locking up problems
How do you replace spark plug wires on a 3300 oldmobile engine?
To replace spark plug wires on a 3300 Oldsmobile engine, open the hood and remove the wires from the end of the engine. The number of spark plug wires most often corresponds to the number of cylinders your engine has.
That could be caused by several things: clogged fuel filter, fuel pump going bad, fouled spark plugs, clogged air filter, dirty throttle body
How do you repair a non-functioning rear defroster on a 2003 Oldsmobile Alero?
The defroster is a thin filament that is run across the rear window sometimes inside that heats up to remove frost. first off does the switch light up when pressed? is there power to the connector at the back window? if so then check the filament itself for breaks this may be the problem, if not then it may be a blown fuse, or bad connection.

You can find the wiring diagram for the 1993 mercury capri at the following site. This manual is very acurate for all the things pertaining to the 90's capri. www.techcapri.com This site has just about everything you need for this little car. Good luck.
What fluids leak from the left side of the hood in a cutlass supreme?
it more depends on what year cutlass you have. I have a 1993 cutlass supreme sl coupe. it's a front wheel drive car, so the engine is turned sideways. the only fluid that would leak out of my car on the driver side is the coolent/anti-freeze. anti-freeze comes in the colors of blue, red and green. green is the most commen color for anti-freeze. but if your car is leaking green fluid, then you might have a leak either on your radiator or a hose running to or from the radiator
on the passenger side, you got your power steering fluid pump, water pump, and coolent over flow tank.
hope this helps.
if you have anymore questions regarding your cutlass facebook me. John Cosgrove. i would be happy to help you.
How do you fix the diver side door on a cutlass supreme that won't open from the inside?
Interesting question. Never heard of a diver's side. Please explain so I can render an informed answer.
Why is my oldsmoblie cutlass cerria backfiring and not starting?
timing out of adjustment. start with distributer timing and go to timing belt or chain
could be the crank position sensor located behind the harmonic balancer
