If the PS pump was malfunctioning, wouldn't the pump make that same whinnig noise when turning the wheels?
Mine does not. Which leads me to believe that it is something else.
Keep in touch if you hear of a resolution.
Top parking/brake light
Middle - blinker light
Bottom - back up light
Question can we buy a circuit board in which the middle bulb also comes on as a parking light? Of course it must be able to plug into stock wiring harness.
Modified tail light assembly if available:

Anyone experience this problem? Any ideas on a cause?
I'm not a mechanic but I passed my thoughts along to the dealership again. When I went to check on the vehicle they said that the the TB wouldn't start and they checked the battery and it was dead. To make a long story short, I've spent over $600 on the TB-- new ignition switch because they said that is what usually causes the airbag problem plus they replaced the driver side door lock assembly and installed a new battery but I the drivers door message still appears. I've informed my garage that we will be sitting down with the ownership to discuss this once it is said and done.
Does anyone out there have any ideas because the mechanics seem to be clueless? I asked them if they checked the wiring but I haven't gotten a straight answer yet. Thanks.

Thanks

I think the GMPP is the best choice. I have it on both our 02 TB and my 04 Grand Am. Never had a problem using it.

PLZ HELP!!!!!!
Any comments or advice from the chevy TB peanut gallery?
thanks!
MMM from Stuart Fla
The problem: Recently, regardless of outside temps, the TB has started to "hesitate" when cold. It will drive very sluggishly with no power for about 1/2 mile. Then it apparently reaches an optimal temp or setting and drives perfectly. No dash lights come on.
We recently had the plugs and fuel filter replaced. The dealer replaced the catalytic converter and the filter again. The car is now at the dealer waiting for the "foreman" to look at it.
When we dropped it off last night, we taped a note to the steering wheel to the effect that it should be a mechanic that starts this so they can experience the problem when the engine is cold. It will NOT do it when warm.
Bottom line: Anyone else have this problem ?
Thanks to everyone for the tips about the O2 sensor. The only thing our TB was doing different that the others reported was none of the lights came on.
My 02' Trailblazer does the same thing. Recent threads have indicated that the fan clutch is the culprit and should be replaced.

The fan clutch has been known by GM to be the cause of poor AC performance for over 2 years. I've posted the first few lines (below) of the service bulletin issued in June 2005. Perhaps documenting it will help you get some help and resolution. The clutch can be bought for less than $200 but parts and labor has been known to run upwards of $700.
Good Luck!

Intermittent Slow to Cool HVAC Performance Concerns in
High Ambient Temperatures and/or High Humidity
Conditions After Start Up, Especially at Low Engine
Speeds (Install New Engine Cooling Fan Clutch)
2004-2005 Buick Rainier
2002-2005 Chevrolet TrailBlazer Models
2002-2005 GMC Envoy Models
2002-2004 Oldsmobile Bravada
2005 Saab 9-7X
Condition
Some customers may comment on slow to cool Air Conditioning (A/C) performance or high A/C outlet temperatures after startup or that the A/C system is not cooling sufficiently, especially in high ambient temperatures. This may be an intermittent condition and the performance of the Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system may not meet customer expectations.
Correction
Replace the EV fan clutch.
