is it electric windows? if it has electric windows does the passenger window roll up using the switch for it on the passenger door panel? if it works on the passenger door panel and not on the driver's door panel , then your switch on the drivers door panel is bad... replace it.

remove the pins and the plastic shield over the headlight housing.pull straight up on the 2 clips to release housing from ball studs , twist and withdraw the bulbs from housing!! do not touch bulbs, oil from skin will make them blow out quicker, if need be use a pair of clean gloves to be safe, installation the reverse of removal!!!

1999 Oldsmobile Cutlass V6 Overheating Problem

Thanks to all the responses I really do appreciate it. To answer to those who have responded. Yes the dexcool to water mix in the system is 50/50. The temp guage itself was my next thought as well. So I did replace that but still just as before the guage reads hot and upon a 7-8 mile drive all coolant is spraying out the overflow tube on the coolant tank. I do bleed the system correctly using the release valve,heater on while filling, and proper burping. So with the entire cooling system replaced. Replaced 2 thermostats,water pump,radiator,coolant tank,radiator cap,dexcool,hoses,temp switch. I will try the suggestion of the intake manifold gasket. Give me a chance to see what its lookin like inside.I guess. Any Other Thoughts Please?!

The low side port for the A/C System for the 1999 Oldsmobile is located between the engine and the firewall on the passenger side. It is very low to reach. Only connect to the system when the engine is completely cool. The little hoses that most parts stores sell WILL NOT WORK FOR THIS PORT!!! You need a long hose.

1998 olds cutlass wontstart theft system light on

It starts with the security light and then gets worse till the car won't start anymore. The security system (VATS/Passkey) installed on these GM cars is anti-owner more than an anti-theft. There are 3 parts involved:

  1. The chip-key
  2. The lock cylinder
  3. The TDM (aka the brain of the system)
if any of these parts fails or is even slightly malfunctioning, the car stays stuck where you are and you only get a dealer asking you about 1,000$ to fix it. And all the 3 parts have a quite short lifespan. Way too many people got in this situation (including myself). I don't recommend any partial solution or any used parts as it would happen again way too soon to be acceptable and if it happens 100 miles from home (like it happened to me....) it's a big burden. I finally made it to save my beloved 94 Park Avenue (with the exact same system that is installed in your car) with a solution that I found on the internet and that bypasses the entire factory security system, all 3 pieces altogether and you can even remove the TDM at the end and use 99c keys without chip. The product I used is at http://newrockies.com and is still working perfectly after 5 years. Don't go to the dealer!
