sound like the heater core is leaking. it need to be replaced

Transmission gear assembly and transmission needs inspection. Also check the transmission fluid level. Also is the fluid getting leaked or its low.

There are few very helpful links with solutions to troubleshoot this problem.

No,not unless you want problemsDrop Pan,Clean,Change FilterIf it does not slip-- you can change it 3 or 4 times,a couple days apart-- if your a perfectionistThat is assuming your doing it yourselfYou change trans & power steering every 3 yearsor leave your check book handi

it will flush both if you are running the car. it would best to remove the thermostat,so the flush will go through the everything much easier.

Remove the vacuum hose from the fuel pressure regulator have some one turn the key on but dont start the car if gas leaks out the regulator is bad.

I am sorry but we do not have parts. Please contact a local auto salvage year to find the part is my suggestion.

Get the trouble code that is stored in the computer.This can get us in the right direction.

see this steps and fix it. God bless youWhen the engine cranks normally but won't start, you need to check ignition, fuel and compression. Ignition is easy enough to check with a spark tester or by positioning a plug wire near a good ground. No spark? The most likely causes would be a failed ignition module, distributor pickup or cranshaft position sensor CKP A tool such as an Ignition System Simulator can speed the diagnosis by quickly telling you if the ignition module and coil are capable of producing a spark with a simulated timing input signal. If the simulated signal generates a spark, the problem is a bad distributor pickup or crankshaft position sensor. No spark would point to a bad module or coil. Measuring ignition coil primary and secondary resistance can rule out that component as the culprit. Module problems as well as pickup problems are often caused by loose, broken or corroded wiring terminals and connectors. Older GM HEI ignition modules are notorious for this. If you are working on a distributorless ignition system with a Hall effect crankshaft position sensor, check the sensor's reference voltage (VRef) and ground. The sensor must have 5 volts or it will remain permanently off and not generate a crank signal (which should set a fault code). Measure VRef between the sensor power supply wire and ground (use the engine block for a ground, not the sensor ground circuit wire). Don't see 5 volts? Then check the sensor wiring harness for loose or corroded connectors. A poor ground connection will have the same effect on the sensor operation as a bad VRef supply. Measure the voltage drop between the sensor ground wire and the engine block. More than a 0.1 voltage drop indicates a bad ground connection. Check the sensor mounting and wiring harness. If a Hall effect crank sensor has power and ground, the next thing to check would be its output. With nothing in the sensor window, the sensor should be "on" and read 5 volts (VRef). Measure the sensor D.C. output voltage between the sensor signal output wire and ground (use the engine block again, not the ground wire). When the engine is cranked, the sensor output should drop to zero every time the shutter blade, notch, magnetic button or gear tooth passes through the sensor. No change in voltage would indicate a bad sensor that needs to be replaced. If the primary side of the ignition system seems to be producing a trigger signal for the coil but the voltage is not reaching the plugs, a visual inspection of the coil tower, distributor cap, rotor and plug wires should be made to identify any defects that might be preventing the spark from reaching its intended destination.

The Grand Am doesn't have a cabin air filter

Here is the diagram from FixYa October 13 2011.

no, you just need a new bulb in it, same thing happened to me.

My light also went out, it was the bulb, i had to have it replaced.

above or below?..new weather seal, take a close look around the edge of the seal to ensure its on properly, could be off slightly..

your cooling fans will run anytime a/c is on and with a/c off fans won't come on intill engine temp reaches 228 degrees.

i know this might be the first thing you have tryed but have ou checked ththe fuse if that is ok. make sure you have a good earth connection fafailing that you will need to check the wiring for brakages.if all that fails you will need to have it checked out at your local garage.
