Top 20 2003 Chevrolet Tracker Questions & Answers

STARTER DEAD MEANS NO CRANK???????????? CRANKS FAST BUT DOES NOT START, MEANS JUST THAT.? OR cranks then STARTS AND STALLS.? I CAN NOT UNDERSTAND THE END OF LINE 3 ABOVE. WE CAN NOT HEAR YOUR STARTER SPIN FAST, YOU MUST SAY IT AND TYPE IT. OK. THE IDLE CONTROLS ARE FAILING (IAC VALVE) OR you never got tune up in 20 years? and the spark plugs are shot. as expected 100% that. IF BY CHANCES IT DOES CRANK FAST AND WILL NOT START UsE 5% right foot throttle to start the engine, if the starter is dead, shift to neutral and crank that way the users guide (free) tells how. a starter can be dead silent or clicks or chatters or goes GRRRRRRGVRRRRRR that load cranking sound. what does your starter do in line 3 , hot started.

Have you checked your spark plugs or coil packs above them?

The relay is easier to change, I would try it first, unless you get someone with an electric meter and a lot of smarts to check it out first. The relay should be in a black plastic box under the hood of the car, and may very well be labelled. If a new relay does not fix it, you may be looking at a new "multi-switch" on the steering column. That requires taking the steering column apart to change it. God bless your efforts.

Not sure why you are thinking camshaft position... I am thinking maybe a relay is giving up. Did you check for fuel pressure and spark after the stall?

Check or have someone to check the voltage to the pump. If you have voltage then would change the filter.

Hello David Sharp, I don't think you are as persecuted as you think... Your first impression... "Not likely all 4 at the same time"... I think was CORRECT. I would put a few more miles on the car... I suspect they will all (4) check back in because OXYGEN SENSORS do their jobs... They sense problems. In the mean-time... become more familiar with the cost and availability of your EXHAUST SYSTEM. JUST my opinion... (I'd take it to a muffler shop for a FREE estimate) ((but only after checking PRICES BELOW)). 2001 CHRYSLER 300M 3 5L V6 Catalytic Converter RockAuto 2001 CHRYSLER 300M 3 5L V6 Muffler RockAuto

Should be a back bottom left or right side.

Pull the injector out.

remove the door trim and plastic membrane . the door handle will be held in place by nuts up behind the latch mechanism

Best way is ask a garage that does Chevy or get an illustrated parts list, maybe online or ebay and this will at least show the location of all the bolts and clips for the front end. One thing is, have you a comprehensive tool kit to tackle this task and maybe a degree of knowledge to identify the components?

12590219 or 12590220 are the part numbers. GM has issued a technical bulletin that most failures are caused by bad connections rather than defective control module. If code c0550 is present in module or the scanner can't communicate with module are the only reason to replace the control module.

It mostly depends on engine size...however all (PCV) Positive Crankcase Ventalation Valves are plugged inside one of the valve covers with a small clip to hold it and a breather hose is connected to it..You can go get the part to see what it looks like then you will know...also ask sales clerk and he will be glad to tell you...Some are near the valve cover.(The valve cover is normally where the oil fill cap is located ).Yours (Pending engine) should have a green ring around it if it has never been replaced..Look near the spark plug at the back of the engine and you will see it...Before you attempt to change it be sure engine has cooled down and car is in park with park brake is engaged..disconnect ground cable from battery for safety and to reset computer to clear all trouble codes if any were present.clean around area to remove any contaminants that might fall in placement hole..Remove hose,use small plyers and lightly pull on placement clip..(Don't drop the clip)...Twist valve back and forth while pulling and it should pop out..clean the hole area,use a flashlight to look inside and look for oil cake build up or trash..lightly lube around installation end of new PCV Valve...twist and push to install..install clip/hose..connect battery...Complete...Hope this helps...Brooks/Metalpoet....

You should be able to adjust them manually on the dash .

All Gm's I have worked on. The crank sensor is behind the harmonic balancer. The lowest pulley on the front of the engine.

check the condition and tension of the alternator belt. Check for loose battery terminals

You need to have a load test done on that battery Esther. The only other thing would be if your tracker would have a 12 volt drain.

put a different relay in and see if it stops..

if its squalling..the bearings are bad.. motor needs replaced..if not it will blow fuses due to lockup..

No the three wires are 1 battery voltage 1 reference voltage 5 volts 1 ground. these sensors read in Hertz so a low reading would indicate a leak in the piping. Low voltage could be due to a dirty sensor computer measures the burn off of the hot wire which has been contaminated by dirt or K & N air filter cleaner. The number one seller of mass air flow sensors.
