At cars right side under the hood.

In autumn you can occasionally get earthquakes and tsunami's and maybe if you're unlucky a nuke could explode...

Loose or corroded battery cable?

Engine seized?

Bad starter?

Bad starter solenoid?

Bad neutral safety switch?

simply secure the spare tire and jacking hardware,, then get rid of the JUNK in your trunk.! If that doesn't do it then the noise is probably not coming from the trunk but from underneath where the rear suspension is. Have a mechanic check for loose/worn struts/shocks,linkages,brake parts,WHEELS etc. Good luck!

This is an awesome post for how to replace the dash lights; it also shows you how to take the dash cover/cowel off by lifting straight up until the pins come out:

In the trunk by the right tail light.

Don't know about calipers - have never needed to replace those.

If you are replacing, yourself, the parts (pads and rotors) will cost anywhere from $120 up for front pads and rotors (pads $20 up for a full set, rotors $45 up each). If you check the web, there are some sites where you can order an entire set (pads and rotors) for around $90.

If you open the trunk, near the top will be 2 separate handle-like things. Pull on these, and the rear seats will fold down.

Could be lots of things, but I would check to see if the filter is clean, the A coil is clean and if there is plenty of air coming through the vents. If the A coil is frozen up, it may not be getting enough air flow through it or you could need freon added to the system.

Best I can tell, you first have to disconnect the air conditioning components to allow enough space to pull out the fan and it's housing. And that is an entirely separate subject.

Could be starter solenoid - Follow + battery cable should connect to solenoid

Ignition swtich?? Wiring ok from battery? Check all the grounds to engine and chassis... peek at a manual for a diagram// See if your local library has a professional shop manual to look at for free... dave

Most likely the ignition/key switch. Very common problem with ION.

Saturn Ions use a cartridge oil filter. Looking at the engine its to the right, there is a black plactic cylinder about three inches in dyamiter with a plastic bolt head on it. Just use an adjustable wench to remove the black cap. The filter will be attached and it just pops off and the new one will pop in.

ok looking at the dash you have the 2 vents on the center console where the radio is.. pull hard on the center of the vents. this should pull the top out.. now just pull the sides of the dash peice and it should pop right off.. just clips holding it in place

next there should be a few screws along the sides of the radio.. take those out and radio should pull out..

It is a yellow pill

Wear your seatbelt.

This is a very difficult job involving recovering the R134a from the A/c and the coolant This is too big a job for the backyard guy. I get paid 8 hrs to do it and it takes close to that. Are you sure you want to try?

My Ion would on occasion when I'm parking not allow me to turn the key to the off position, it would get stuck in limbo, engine off, but battery running, and not allow me to remove the key. I have found that if the steering wheel is not straight, this will happen sometimes. But I am not sure this is the cause. If I push the brake down and make sure I have set the shift to "Park" after stopping the car and then trying to turn the key to off, and it still doesn't work, wiggling the steering wheel a little while pushing the brake pedal will release it. Sometimes though this has no affect whatsoever, and it can be very frustrating. I have a 2003 Ion by the way. Just wanted to post an answer, because it is not necessarily a buildup of any shavings off the key in the cylinder since I brought it to the dealership and got that replaced and it STILL does it! Just an annoying thing about this fun car - I forgive it each time I finally get it to off. Love my Ion.

You pull all of your fuses and look in the center to see if its cracked you'll notice a differnce

from the good ones...but be sure that you put the fuses bak in the spot they go in

in the ionospere of the cell membrane

From my understanding it is not a fuse to fix the powersteering. It is a colum that has to be fixed by the dealer ship but I maybe wrong........

at the present, we do not know if there is life on other planets or what it would look like if there was
