It's probably the switch that tells the car that there's key in the ignition, and YES you want it hooked up. Without it, you will get no ding or buzzer when you leave your key in the ignition, and you can lock your keys in. Now, that's based on the little amount of info we have about it, but generally, the manufacturers don't put switches in that aren't important. That one is, and so it would not be a good idea to mess with it. Buy a Hanes Manual for your vehicle, and you can find out for sure. Also, they're great for learning about vehicles and how to fix them.

Must have a short in the wiring.

Look at the caliper on the other side

Hi Jose, The knock sensor, is usually located under the intake manifold on the lowest part of the cylinder head. It controls the ignition timing firing point, by adjusting the timing. It is not unusual for the connection to become loose, so check the connection before buying a new part. Regards John

you prolly want to check fuses first. If not solved then a continuity test needs to be done for hidden loose wires "a short' underneath the center console is where (on that model ) the wires are channled to their destination...

90% of the time it is the distributor or coil, are you sure you have a good distributor, the other thing would be the timing belt, is the dist spinning when you crank the engine? make sure the timing belt did not pop.this car also uses an igniter , if i remember correctly, but they do not not go bad often but could be.

check the idle solenoid on the carby is connected or the idle sensor is ok

try the heater core in passenger side floor board under dash see if hoses have collapsed or if its leaking.

Here are some to see.

I'm sure you know the fuel pump won't have any affect on the ignition.You may need a repair book to get the procedures and wiring diagrams to troubleshoot the ignition system.I am assuming a new coil came with the replacement distributor. Did the cap and rotor get replaced too ?Do you have voltage going to the distributor coil ?Is the rotor turning when the engine is cranked ?

It depends on the model You need a factory service manual. it shows how to check a/c amplifier

blown fuse or link

The 1.8 engine is not an interference engine.

To replace the cover plate on an electrical outlet, simply unscrew the screw from the plate, remove the plate, then replace with new cover and screw in. You can get new cover plates at Walmart or Home Depot. Most come with 1 screw, but some have 2.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------opcom 2010

well the reserve thank usually holds excess water. basically when water gets hot it expands and increases in size, the expansion causes some of it to go into the reserve and it can be very hot even boiling.. did this happen before or is it strange ?notice any other problems while driving around, noises, engine overheating ?does the radiator fans turn on ??

Difficult to explain step by step. You need yo remove the instrument cluster. If youre technically minded its not very hard, start by loosening the Phillip"s head screws that is visible on the panel directly under the instrument cluster, give it a try!

try to turn key on first click of ignition. shifter release is controlled by shift actuator. check for blown fuse..

On the back side of the lighter there is a fusable link between the incoming power wire and the metal tab that connects power to the lighter. This is a very small wire, bent 90 degrees, between two tabs that are mounted on the same small screw. It looks like the incoming power tab and the power to the lighter would be connected, but they are insulated from each other on the screw. If the fusable link is blown, you will have power at the power connector on the back of the lighter, but no power to the center terminal inside the lighter.
