Try changing the fuel filter.the fuel pump may be going bad also. Is the check engine light on?

one thing you can try is to get one of those magnetic pick up tools at a parts store.......prefferably one with a large magnet...and put a cloth around the end of it so you dont scratch the plastic on you gauges and try to pull it back to where it belongs,i have done this a few times with good results,hope this helps

the air feels hot ( compressed) because the ac compressor is not working you say that occasionally it kicks in and then the air is cold that could be either a climate control module , thermostat compressor relay problem but which ever way you look at it it will cost cash the best way is to have the problem properly diagnosed by an accredited ac specialist shop and get a quote and then decide on the fix

could be a good candidate for the overheating problem it is probably the oil line that goes to the oil cooler in the radiator and if it doesn't have sufficient flow then the oil in the transmission gets progressively hotter before replacing it consider this transmission oil coolers that are in the radiator tank keep the oil at coolant temps which is around 95 C if you spend a bit of cash and fit an air to air transmission cooler , it brings the operating temp of the oil down to 1/2 ambient temp besides the fact that your are now removing an added heat source from the coolant of the engine the results are --cooler running engine and cooler running transmission worth talking to an accredited transmission specialist shop

Try the cheapest Fixes first 1) change the air filter. 2) change the fuel filter. Add 1 can of B&G44K to a full tank of 91 octane fuel. This additive is the best on the market and only available through dealerships(Do not substitute). It will condition the fuel pump and injectors. Try this first, Then redo the ODBII test. Erase all stored faults after reading. Put a dab of RTV on the bare wires at the crank sensor to insulate wires.

run the fault codes as the limp mode is from engine AND transmission faults the problem could be in the transmission servo/ solenoids or TCM

It appears to be element filter. Your local auto store should have that filter end socket. I don't know if regular filter wrench would work, don't know if you have enough room to work it?

Have you checked fuel relay ? Have you checked to see if you got power going to the starter ? If yes, try jumping starter to see if it turns over. If it does, then you may have a bad relay or damaged wiring. If you have power at the starter and after you bypass it, and it does not do anything, you may have a bad starter.

Hi Gordy Good question....... there is unlikely to be a definitive answer. Because the supply voltage could be coming from many possible sources. A short to another 12v source or in the case of a ground switch being used.... it could be a short to ground. First, use a voltmeter or test light to determine if there is 12v on one of the lamp connections all the time (or when ignition is on) If this is the case then all the light needs to turn on is a ground connection. (Easily proved with a jumper wire) Once you know this, then it is a process of elimination to find the colour and rout of the wire from the bulb which is going to ground somewhere on the way to the various door switches. If the lamp uses an intermittent 12v from the switches to the lamp then the reverse would be true. But that is more unlikely.

Take your vin number to your local Olds dealer they can code you a new key. I would however only buy one there, take it to lock smith for extras they will be cheaper for duplicates.
