Dose a 2001 Pontiac aztek have back air brakes?
Asked by Wiki User
Umm... i think you are referring to the air self levelling system which levels the aztek according to the load. When you shut off the vehicle you will hear the air release after a few minutes.
i believe that is what you are hearing.

Pull fuse #28 (located in engine compartment), check to see if it is blown, (it probably isn't), Then simply replace it.
the pulling of the #28 fuse is only a temporary fix. you need to replace the bcm. (body control module)
Replace the BCM....IF your problem starts up after the car starts warming up. BCM heat shielding went bad and gives the problems when its hot. That's what happened to me.
Mine did this same thing. It was the BCM. Replaced and it's back to "normal." True though, pulling the fuse "fixes" it temporarily.
Why did the anti-lock light come on your 2001 aztek?
Asked by Wiki User
It could possibly that the wiring has come loose from the sensor or that it may be corroded.
How do you remove the shift lever knob from the rod on a 2001 Pontiac aztek?
Asked by Wiki User
I have a 2005 Aztec, the shifter has a "u" shaped pin located on the front towards the dash if you use a small screw driver you can loosen the pin enough, then use a small pair of plyer to put it out. The shifter will then pull up. Hint. With your foot on the brake...put shifter in low gear to create more space to access this pin
How do you program a key remote for a Pontiac Montana?
Asked by Wiki User
I hope you meant a keyLESS remote. Here ya go:
Important! Once the BCM enters program mode, all transmitters must be programmed at the same time. Any transmitters not learned at this time will be erased.
1) Remove the key from the ignition cylinder
2) Remove the BCM PRGRM fuse from the fuse panel
3) Close all the doors
4) Close the liftgate
5) Turn the ign lock cylinder
to the ACC. position
6) Turn the ignition lock cylinder
to OFF, and then back to ACC within 1 second
7) Open and close any door
A chime will be heard when the system enters the BCM programming mode
IMPORTANT!
After 7 seconds a chime may be heard confirming successful synchronization. It is necessary to wait approximately 14 seconds for a second chime that will confirm successful programming.
8) Press and hold the transmitter LOCK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously for 14 seconds
9) Repeat the previous step on each additional transmitter to be programmed.
10) Remove the ignition key from the ignition cylinder
11) Install the BCM PRGRM fuse back into the fuse panel.
2004 Aztec AWD disabled light is on..why?
Asked by Wiki User
I know I posted the above question but:
After research I came up with the following:
problem with the wiring harness that controls the gas gauge/low fuel, also, and AWD warning lights.
problem: if you had replaced the front hub on your aztek, the sensor in the hub could have been damaged.
problem: could be a damaged abs or transfer case????
solution: could be a wheel bearing even though you suspect sensor

What would make your key get stuck in the ignition of a Pontiac Aztec?
Asked by Wiki User
i have that problem to it has something to do with the gear shift censor
While the aztek is running in park for a few minutes tried to put it in drive but could not I had to turn the motor off then turn it back on to put it in drive?
Asked by Wiki User
I have had this same problem with my 04 Aztek. Until recently I could just turn off the ignition wait a few minutes and restart and that would fix. Just the other day I could not get it to reset, so I took off the shift cover and found that the wiring going into the shift sensor were all loose. I am currently trying to find a replacement for it. I have also heard that there is a problem with the BCM on some models that can contribute to this problem.
Have a aztek will turn off but the lights will not go off and the keys are locked in the ignition?
Asked by Wiki User
Check that you have the vehicle in the park gear position
It has happened to me a couple of times before
Good Luck

What is the correct tire pressure for a 2001 Pontiac Aztek if the inflation sticker is missing and it is not in the manual assume it either 30 or 35 PSI?
Asked by Wiki User
Check a tire retailer- they should have specs.
Also, you can check the side wall of the tire, and it will give you the max pressure for the tire. It is safe to add this amount of air, until you find out the proper inflation for your Aztek. Addition to answer: My 2001 Aztek has tires of two types, Eclipse and Bridgestone, and they say up to 44 psi. However, my manual says to look at the label on the rear edge of the driver's door. There it says 35 psi or 240 kpa both front and back. 60 psi for the spare.
