1998 Saturn SW - Page 5 Questions & Answers
2003 Saturn Vue 2.2 liter. Why is it stalling and the codes are P0340 and P1599. The car doesn't have a camshaft position sensor?
Circuit Description
This ignition system does not use a conventional camshaft position (CMP) sensor that detects valve train position. The ignition control module (ICM) detects when #1 or #3 cylinder has fired on its compression stroke using sensing circuitry integrated within each coil. The sensing circuit detects the polarity and the strength of the secondary voltage output, the higher output is always at the event cylinder. The ICM sends a CMP signal to the engine control module (ECM) based on the voltage difference between the event and waste cylinder firing energy. This system is called compression sense ignition. By monitoring the CMP and crankshaft position (CKP) signals, the ECM can accurately time the operation of the fuel injectors. If the ECM receives an intermittent CMP signal from the ICM, the CMP Resync Counter on the scan tool will increment. When the ECM cannot use the information from the CMP signal, DTC P0340 will set.
Diagnostic Aids
• The following conditions may cause this DTC to set:
- Low resistance in both the #1 and #3 secondary ignition circuits
- High resistance in both the #4 and #2 secondary ignition circuits
- An intermittent crank signal
• An Intermittent crank signal will result in an interrupted cam signal and may set this DTC.
• To locate an intermittent problem, monitor the CMP Active Counter parameter while running the engine with a scan tool. The counter should continuously count up to 255, then reset to zero. The counter will stop counting if a fault occurs in the cam signal circuit.
If this DTC is determined to be intermittent, refer to Intermittent Conditions .
2006 Saturn Ion 2.2l after driving the car, I park and turn the car off I can't get the key out why?
This could possibly be one of two things. An old, worn ignition key or a faulty shift/park solenoid.
If you are going to replace the key DON'T recut the key you are using now as you are only copying a Bad key. Get a brand new key from the Dealership. You will need the VIN number to do it.
The solenoid is located on the side of the gear shifter housing under the centre console so you will need to remove it to get access to it.
Location of MAP sensor on 2006 Saturn view 2.2 L
The Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor on a 2006 Saturn View 2.2 L is located on top of the cylinder head, right side, about 2/3 of the way back. There is one screw holding it in. You will need to take off the plastic engine cover off to access it. The sensor in the airbox is the MAF sensor. Mass Airflow Sensor.
Wont move in reverse or drive 2001 saturn l300
Make sure the shifter cable is working. If good then check the transmission fluid level. If ok Then check if the drive axles are ok, If all ok then you have an internal transmission problem.
I have a 2008 Saturn outlook with 2w drive. I recently drove in wet weather a my Stabil Trak and traction control indicators
When the Stabilitrak and Traction Control indicators come on and stay illuminated in your 2008 Saturn Outlook, it typically indicates a problem with the vehicle's stability control system. This system helps maintain control and stability during adverse driving conditions, such as wet or slippery roads. There are several potential causes for these warning lights, and it's essential to address the issue promptly to ensure your vehicle's safety and performance. Here are some common reasons for the warning lights to stay on:
- Wheel Speed Sensor Issues: The Stabilitrak and Traction Control systems rely on information from wheel speed sensors to determine if a wheel is slipping or losing traction. If one of these sensors is malfunctioning or dirty, it can trigger the warning lights.
- Faulty ABS Module: The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) module is closely related to the stability control system. If there is a problem with the ABS module, it can affect the functionality of Stabilitrak and Traction Control.
- Damaged Wiring: Damage to the wiring that connects the wheel speed sensors to the control module can disrupt the communication and trigger the warning lights.
- Malfunctioning Control Module: The control module responsible for the stability control system can develop faults or errors over time.
- Brake System Issues: Problems with the vehicle's braking system, including worn brake pads, can sometimes lead to issues with the Stabilitrak system.
- Faulty Steering Angle Sensor: The steering angle sensor is part of the stability control system. A malfunction in this sensor can lead to warning lights.
- Low Fluid Levels: Low brake fluid levels can trigger the warning lights, as the stability control system may interpret it as a potential issue with the braking system.
To diagnose and address the problem, you should take your Saturn Outlook to a qualified mechanic or a dealership. They can perform a diagnostic scan using specialized equipment to pinpoint the exact issue that is causing the warning lights to stay on. Once the problem is identified, they can recommend the necessary repairs or replacements.
It's important not to ignore these warning lights, as the stability control system is designed to enhance vehicle safety and performance, particularly in adverse driving conditions. Addressing the issue promptly will help ensure the continued safe operation of your vehicle.
How do I turn off flasher with my Saturn SL1
is this the turn signal your referring to or the the headlight high beam? Try the basics first. I might suggest silly, obvious things here but even I've done stuff like this.
The stalk switch should turn the turn signal off by flicking it up or down. (Left side of the steering column behind the steering wheel). If your high beam is staying on try pulling the same stalk towards you feeling for the 'click' as the lights switch back to dipped beam.
If none of this works the switch itself could be faulty.
The Saturn is an older car so parts will wear out.
Need to know how the belt goes on a 2008 saturn auro
