So does anyone have ANY idea what this could be? bc were totally stumped!
What do you think happend
I have replaced my front break pads on my 2001 Grand Am, a few weeks later - the ABS, TRAC OFF & "Service Vehicle Soon" warnings turned on. I am not sure what is wrong.. Any ideas !???
Please help me before I spend $$$ on GM mechanics.
Thank you very much !!
I believe the reason the hose started leaking is because that point is where it seems to flex a lot when the moter torques back and forth.
Some people would say to go ahead and change the return hose at the same time since it will be easily accessible. That's up to you. I didn't since it looked fine.
i had just replaced the ignition assembelly, and this is when it started doing this, it makes sence that it thinks that i am trying to steal it, i just dont want to have to tow it to a dealer now, and pay them to reset it if i can do it myself.
By the way......Thanks for the reply its greatly appreciated.
I have a 1999 Grand Am with 125000 miles on it and running fine. It has developed s funny problem.
While driving it suddenly starts making 'click-clack' chattering type noise. It is as if some wire has gone loose from the some of the switches under the steering wheel. The noise is the same noise which comes when you put on the directional indicator.Anybody got any idea.The dealer service guy says 'Replace the switch unit under the steering'.
Will this help
Since you say it only happens after backing up it kind of points to something shifting or positioning. Are you sure you can actually "feel" it in the pedal or is it more of a noise?

Anyone know what I'm talking about?
Just to complicate things with probably useless information, I have a Viper remote start alarm and a couple amps, but I've tried putting the alarm in valet mode and pulled the face off my radio, to make sure the amps aren't turned on.
Any thoughts?
My 2001 GA SE won't start. I'm guessing fuel pump problems. On my other car, there is a fuel pump access in the trunk. It looks like the fuel tank is under the rear seat on the GA. Is there an access under the seat? Or do I have to drop the tank? If there is an access under the seat, how do I remove the seat?
Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
I was wondering whether some of you can provide me with valuable advice. My GrandAm GT V6's meters (speedmeter etc.), they all jump from one side to the other even the motor itself is turned off -the key is just turned-. I have taken the car to a mechanic, he has taken a look at the fuse, also taken out the dash board etc., but, he cannot find the problem. He thinks it might be a mere miscontact but doesn't know where.
I'd be happy if you could help and I would really apprecite it.
Thank you!
A bug in 2001 Pontiac Grand Am's causes them to simply not start, right out of the blue. Better hope you're not in the wrong neighborhood when it happens 'cause almost nobody knows what the fix is.
(PRWEB) February 21, 2005 -- If you own a 2001 Pontiac Grand Am, you'd better hope you're not stuck somewhere bad when this hits: You go to start your car, and the engine cranks, but it seems like your out of gas, and won't start. Numbers of people then have the car towed to a shop, only to find that the car easily starts after being towed, but no cause is ever found.
The problem is that the RKE (remote keyless entry) system has a defect in it that causes car not to start. As of now there is no recall on the passlock systems. As for a fix, the experts are honestly not sure.
To reset the computerized system, put key in the ignition and leave it in 'On' position for about ten minutes. Then turn it off, and try - it should start then. Warning: continued resetting of the computer this way will eventually damage computer and will cost lots to replace/fix.
We need for you to post a link to that information, please.
Thanks!

1. I need to take the door apart to put the window back in track.
2. I need to fix the power lock, it gets stuck 3/4 of the way when unlocking and you can't easily move it by hand.
How easy is it to fix both of these, and does someone have the diagram on how to take the door apart so i can access both of these?
Thanks..
