It may not have one. It is a dealer specific service.

vauxhall charge 47 pound to look at the car for you sounds like the steering rack but i cant be sure, i would take it to vauxhall cause a backstreet could get it wrong and it would cost you more

probably a fuse or relay, but check your owners manual because I think some GM models will not activate the heaters in seats if the ambient temp is above 70 degrees.

battery weak, May need to test it and also test your altinator. your locial parts store will not charge for this, Good luck.

it may be the temperature sensor that activates the fan or a loose wire or connector plug check the wiring & connector plug......hope this helps.....cheers

yep definately sounds like the immoboliser, are you using the remote to disengage it? if not there should be a cut off switch for the system, try disengage it and check to see if it fixes the propblem.

try giving these guys a call they only sells GM- parts and they maybe able to help you are know someone who can its Schram auto & truck parts 1-800-292-1032 and they website is www.schramauto.com you may also want to give these websites a try www.alldatadiy.com and www.autozone.com if all fails try to find someone in your area who restore old cars and they maybe able to help you wish you the best of luck Michigan Man.

Check the fuse or relay.. Or you might have a bad heating coil in the seats.


Good Luck!

check the daylight driving light module

Have you ever replaced the Pressure Plate?

hi i don't know how many miles or time frame this is but this might be helpful

There's been numerous issues regarding the airbag system in the Acadia. The system would not deploy the airbags in a crash, or would deploy them prematurely.

the locksmith is responsible to fix unless u agreed ahead of time, if not call dealer and tell them something is wrong with alarm and have them fix under warrenty

There is no way Onstar would drain your battery in two days. Electric seats? They only draw power when they are running, same as any other device in your car, except the clock. You have either a ground -fault issue or a dome light is always on. Good luck.

Thanks Guys,

Spoke to the Holden Dealer service Tech and got the information i needed.

For issues like this you need an auto electrician with a pro grade bi-directional scan tool computer to diagnose. The misfire may just be spark plug condition, but it could be a sensor issue. It is better to pay a pro and only change the parts that need it rather than 'let's try replacing this' method of repair.

A 2010 Acadia has GM PasskeyIII security. It requires a transponder key programmed to operate with the vehicle. Your "plain key" must have a transponder encased in the plastic head of the key and was programmed to work with your vehicle.

The random no crank is likely because the immobilizer is sometimes unable to validate your key. Could be the key or a problem with transceiver in the ignition lock assembly.

If you have a second key and it has the same issue then the problem is not likely the keys but with the transceiver.

Could be low on refrigerant

Door Lock System Components The power door lock system consists of the following components: • Driver door module (DDM) • Passenger door module (PDM) • Door lock relay--Located in the instrument panel (I/P) fuse block and controls the locking of the rear doors. • Door unlock relay--Located in the I/P fuse block and controls the unlocking of the rear doors • Body control module (BCM) • IP BEC • Reversible door lock actuators in each door Driver and Passenger Lock System Operation The front power door lock switches are integral components of the driver door module (DDM) and passenger door module (PDM). The switches are two-position normally open rocker switches. When placed in either the lock or unlock positions, the switches provide a direct input to the DDM or PDM. The DDM or PDM monitor these inputs and send a LAN message indicating a change in the switch position. Modules, that activate the power door lock motors, receive the LAN message and activate the motor in the appropriate direction to lock or unlock the vehicle doors. The body control module (BCM) upon receipt of a lock or unlock signal will control the rear door lock or unlock relays and also send a LAN message to the DDM and PDM to perform the commanded function. The modules that activate the power door lock motors are: • DDM (driver door lock actuator) • PDM (passenger front door lock actuator) • BCM (both rear door lock actuators) The DDM and PDM are directly connected to the respective door lock actuator through the door lock motor lock and unlock circuits. Once a door lock or unlock request has been received, the module will supply battery voltage to one side of the actuator and ground the other, causing the doors to lock or unlock. The rear passenger doors are controlled by the BCM through the rear door lock/unlock relay which is incorporated onto the printed circuit board in the LH BEC. The BCM controls the unlock relay by providing ground to energize the coil and controls the lock relay by providing battery voltage to energize the relay coil. This energizes the relay and allows voltage to be applied to either the door lock motor lock or unlock circuits. Since the other side of the door lock actuator is connected to the normally closed contacts of the opposing relay to ground, the doors lock or unlock.
