Not my website..just trying to help

You seem to have some confusion. The coolant and air temp sensors don't make any sounds of any kind. Being an 11 impala I'm assuming you're referring to the air door actuators inside the dash. If they are clicking then they need replaced due to the plastic gears inside them being stripped

Battery is going out or not enough cold cranking amps, have the battery tested any auto part store does it for free.

Mineral spirits. You can go to any hardware store and get some. It may be called paint thinner. However, get "mineral spirits". After using mineral spirits, soap and water. Soak up as much as possible with rags. Then, if not too much mineral spirits are still present, use a shop vacuum and an gallon of soapy water. Suck it out really well. Then let it dry well. You will be shocked at how clean it comes out.

Check your fuses.

Hit your local junk yard many will let you go look for one. Wear work boots or rubber boots or they won't let you in. Make a list of easy items you need for car. Take a few hand tools some things you may want to take pictures of to match up. Once there you will be there long never bring wife and kids to wait in car for you. You will all regret it. Junk yards are fun only for you.

Most likely a relay or circuit breaker. Find the one and swap with another to verify. Replace the bad one.

Check the fuse. not sure which one, but your owner's manual will have a drawing of the fuse panel with a list of what each fuse feeds.

Should be a 13mm to remove them. If you need the thread size and actual length, just call a dealership parts department and they can give you the specs. I would not use cheaper bolts for the install as they can corrode and snap off easier than the stock bolts.....which may have already done the same. Make sure to use some nickel anti-seize when installing

Hello Lillian, This sounds like a software issue. If the vehicle build list included the Blue Tooth option these systems are quite complex so you may not be able to sort it out by looking over the guides. I have included a link to the owners manual for the 2011 Impala if your original one is not available. If the fault is software related and you purchased new from a dealer your best option is to request an estimate for repair. Last but not least....and this does not always work...a system reset could be attempted by disconnecting the battery (-) for a short period (10 Minutes)and then re connecting it.A previous post also referred to the amplifier as the culprit.

Under the hood. But if the fuse blew then the circuit is shorted.

I assume you are talking about the camshaft position actuator, it is under the engine front cover on the end of the cam shaft.

ROBERT, SEE YOUR NEAREST CHEVROLET DEALER ASK FOR MANAGER TO SEE YOUR PROBLEM,, SOUNDS LIKE POSSIBLE REPAIR?

there could be several things causing the problem, can you tell me what the engine size is, and if the car has an alarm system which I am suspecting it does, if so is it a factory alarm or an aftermarket. Prior to this, where you experiencing any other problems with the vehicle? When you put they keys in to crank do your lights or radio work, power windows work? and last is that what prompted the replacement of the starter relay, and battery? I would like to help you get this fixed, so if you can leave a comment with that information I will do my best to help get your car back up and running! jason

Have you checked the level of the power steering fluid if it is low it can cause a noise similar to what you described. The power steering pump could be starting to fail and making the noise. I would suggest checking the power steering fluid level and if low, they make some fluid that has power steering fluid conditioner, supposed to help extend the life of the power steering pump, if it is low you need to follow the lines from the pump and see if you can find a leak anywhere. also I would take notice of the color of the power steering fluid, if not too much trouble maybe take a picture of the fluid and upload it here, the fluid can break down and need to be replaced.

Look up the owner's manual.

Check the fuses.

Check battery and make sure the charge is good. If unsure , try a boost

door actuator is no good
