Connected to the big hose between the air filter and engine. If you need further help, I’m available over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/oscar_403cc49e0f00cda7

For each side of the vehicle, there is an air mixing valve buried inside the dash and controlled by an electric actuator. This can be a very complicated problem because the HVAC control system in this car is complicated. First step would be to use a code scanner to see if any error codes (DTC's) are set and proceed from there. If codes are set, you can try disconnecting the negative lead on the battery and then reconnecting it a few minutes later. If that doesn't work, determining the problem and fixing it is a job for a dealership.

Replace it?

I would test the window switch, it is the likely culprit.

The speedo does not have a separate fuse. The gauge fuse is the only fuse for the cluster.

It could be that the VSS is going bad or has a bad wire connection.

Find the upper hose on the passenger front of the engine. The part it is attached to is the thermostat housing. Remove the hose from the pipe. Remove the bolt that holds the pipe to the head. Remove the pipe from the housing. Remove the two bolts from the thermostat housing. I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jeremy_d728a59f986299fa

My first guess would be the coolant level sensor has failed. You may need to get it replaced.

Try "e-bay" or Amazon.

Info taken from other sites on the net: The intake plenum and intake manifold must both be removed to access the thermostat housing. At the end of the upper radiator hose not on the radiator side. It looks like once u take those manifolds off it'll be easier to follow the hose where it attaches to the housing that bolts into the engine block.

sounds like possible broken caliper, xheck by jacking up the front of the car just high enough to get the two front wheels about an inch off the ground. Jack stands should be used for safety, remove the wheels, one at a time or both. Now you can see the disks and pads, visually instect both, the disks should be smooth, any groves worn into the disks indicates the pads are or had been worn or broken. Its even possible that a foreign object like gravel has ludged between the disk and pads, the brake pad on most newer vehicle are very easy to replace and you should be able to find a few videos on youtube to help you out. Places like Midas do brakes for very reasonable price,you may want to consider that option especially if the vehicle has drum rear breaks, If you are gonna get the fonts done might as well do the rear.

Cut it close at both ends and splice in a new cable. I solder them.

Some component or wire is heatingup from resistence causin alternator to ovrwork. Get fixd bfor it burns out. The main wire from alt to batt is first place to test

Hello Carlos, It is a common problem with '99 Cady (Random Misfire Detected)

• Start the car and carefully pull the plugs boot out one by one, and put it right back (a few seconds is enough).
• Take Notice of of which one is affecting the RPM of the engine ( slowing down and and shaking erratically).
• With the engine Off.
• Use the appropriate socket and again one by one take out the spark plugs and check them for oil and heavy residue build up.
• If there is Oil in anyone of plugs, take the car to mechanic and let him or her do an evaluation or diagnostic.
• You probably need new coil packs and spark plugs.
• Change the oil and the air filter too, if they are dirty.
• Check also the fuel filter.
• If the code does not go away by itself, have it reset by a mechanic.

Best of Luck, JP

the canister control valve is mounted on top of the charcoal canister

neutral safety switch is out of adjustment

put a mechanical gauge on the engine and see if the pressure is 30-40lbs
