CHECK YOUR BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH THAT IS ON YOUR BRAKE PEDAL UNDER THE DASH

This car does not have a auto trans dipstick, the level can only be checked by the dealer, this is a growing trend that started with most German cars, the filter is inside the trans pan and only needs changing every 60,000 miles.

You didn't say which motor you have, but on my 3.6L, a plug is located on the RH side of the trans axle assembly. Just above the bottom tranny pan. Don't remove the plug when the engine is off or it will drain out ATF fluid. Start the engine and warm up to around 200 degrees. With the engine still running, remove the plug and fill to spill. When the level is right at the opening, reinstall the plug and you're done. I will attach a picture of this plug. Looks to be a 10mm.

Problem is caused by a bad connection between the body control unit and the wiring harness computer. Remove the cover panel located at the center console at the left of the front passenger footwell. The body control unit is under this panel. Unplug the blue connector from the control unit first pushing up on the grey retainer clip and then pulling the blue connector out of the socket. Smear some dielectric grease into the connector pins and replug the connector. Put everything back together. Do this with the ignition off so no power is going to the module. This should fix the problem--very common on this vehicle.

My pontiac g6 keeps showing low oil level in the dic

There's this website www.reliable-store.com They have books on ALL vehicles. it covers wiring diagrams, electrical diagrams, fuse diagram, torque specs, PCV, error codes, fault codes, service info, repair info, parts info, owner's/service/repair/parts/maintenance manuals etc everything totally.. I have 1987 toyota 4runner model and I keep servicing and when needed repair it on my own. worth it !!!

Do your park lights still work? Do your dash lights still work? check all fuses especially the one for park/taillights

The best solution you'll get from books at www.reliable-store.com These are books containing info on repair, service, troubleshooting, parts info, assembling dissemble, removal, error/fault codes, wiring diagrams and everything on any vehicles cars, atv, trucks. forklifts, boats, excavators etc

Best Manuals I suggest you try one of those instant download manuals. My nephew bought one for me when my car broke and we could fix it all by ourselves with the manual costing $10. This website reliable-store.com is very good for this. ?Try it.

Fuse inside the trunk dummy

This type of issue is most often caused by a failing electric fuel pump, it can be very hard to pin down.

There are anywhere from 3 to 4 vent, defrost, temperature control solenoids in the suitcase or under dash area. What it sounds like is that one of your solenoids which is electronic and is gear driven has a tooth gear where several teeth are broken and the gear cannot complete the cycle that is selected from the control panel. If it is the vent you are trying to open or close, then it is the vent solenoid that needs to be replaced. Bet to go on line to u-tube, in your brouser select your vehicle year, make, model and include 'changing vent solenoid'. You will get several video giving exact detail on how to check for a bad solenoid and then how to change it.

Rather then guessing take it an have it checked ! Most all qualified repair shops have a tool that pressure test's the cap . Know for sure Plus they can pressure test the cooling system .

try having the fault codes read to determine the fault area

You need to grease the steering knuckle

The most common issue here is the rotating contact under the steering wheel called the "Clockspring" has an open printed circuit ribbon. To change this requires the Airbag and steering wheel be taken off. You must disarm the steering wheel mounted Airbag before work starts, failure to do this can kill you. Read and follow the service manual instructions to the letter.

When the rear compartment lid release switch is pushed, the rear compartment lid release signal circuit to the body control module (BCM) is grounded. BCM then grounds the coil side of the trunk release relay through the trunk release relay control circuit. With this voltage is applied to the rear compartment lid release actuator, opening the rear compartment. Rear Compartment Lid Release Relay

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the trunk relay.
2. Test for 65-90 ohms of resistance between terminals 85 and 86.
?‡' If the resistance is not within the specified range, replace the trunk relay.
3. Test for infinite resistance between the following terminals:
?€¢ 30 and 86

?€¢ 30 and 87

?€¢ 30 and 85

?€¢ 85 and 87

?‡' If less than infinite resistance, replace the relay.

4. Install a 10-amp fused jumper wire between relay terminal 85 and 12 volts. Install a jumper wire between relay terminal 86 and ground. Measure for less than 2 ohms of resistance between terminals 30 and 87.

?‡' If greater than 2 ohms, replace the relay.

Rear Compartment Lid Release Relay Malfunction

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the trunk relay.
2. Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the coil side B+ circuit of the trunk relay and ground.
?‡' If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the B+ circuit fuse is open, test the voltage control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the trunk relay.
3. Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the switch side B+ circuit of the trunk relay and ground.
?‡' If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
4. Disconnect the harness connector at the rear compartment lid latch.
5. Ignition OFF, test for less than 5 ohm of resistance between the rear compartment lid latch ground circuit and ground.
?‡' If greater than the specifed range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
6. Connect a test lamp between the trunk release relay control circuit and the coil side B+ circuit of the trunk relay.
7. Command the trunk release solenoid ON and OFF with a scan tool.
?‡' If the test lamp remains ON all the time, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.

?‡' If the test lamp remains OFF all the time, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.

8. Connect the harness connector at the rear compartment lid latch.
9. Connect a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the switch side B+ circuit of the trunk relay and the voltage control circuit of the lid latch. Verify that the lid latch activates.
?‡' If the lid latch does not activate, test the control circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the rear compartment lid latch.
10. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the trunk relay.

Component Testing Rear Compartment Lid Release Switch

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the rear compartment lid release switch.
2. Test for infinite resistance between the trunk release switch supply voltage and ground terminals with the switch in the open position.
?‡' If less than infinite resistance, replace the rear compartment lid release switch.
3. Test for less than 2 ohms of resistance between the trunk release switch supply voltage and ground terminals with the switch in the closed position.
?‡' If greater than 2 ohms, replace the rear compartment lid release switch.
4. Test for infinite resistance between each terminal and the lid release switch housing/case.

?‡' If less than infinite resistance, replace the rear compartment lid release switch.

Could be the relay , could be the switch , could be a problem with the BCM !

Diagnostic Starting Point - Roof (Folding Top) Begin the system diagnosis with the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle in Vehicle DTC Information. The Vehicle System Check will provide the following information: ?€¢ The identification of the control modules which commands the system

?€¢ The ability of the control modules to communicate through the serial data circuit

?€¢ The identification of any stored diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) and their status

The use of Vehicle System Check will identify the correct procedure for diagnosing the system and where the procedure is located. Have vehicle scanned for DTC'S . The power roof has a number of DTC'S that can be set ,could make diagnosing easier !
