Oldsmobile silhouette 2000 coolant system diagram

SOURCE: Replacing dashboard lights on an 2000 Oldsmobile Silhouette Van?

this will take some time but is fairly easy. you have to remove the dash pieces on that side. then this will allow you access to the instrument cluster. becareful not to wear clothing that will give off a static discharge this could short out the cluster board. the bulbs are tiny so be careful while rep-lacing them. the bulbs can be purchased at a local store the bulbs are a 194 or a 1893 in most cases.

It's possible you have a blown head gasket. In that case, the heater core which is above the engine fills with exhaust and stops working. To verify this condition, check exhaust for excessive white smoke. If leak is still small, it's possible you won't see much. In that case have a shop check the radiator for hydrocarbons (exhaust). If the test shows any in cooling system, you definitely have a head gasket problem.
I'd also check the thermostat. Sometimes it can give similar symptom but more often than not this will trace back to the hg.

SOURCE: how to install a oxygen sensor

There are usually two O2 sensors one on each side of the catalytic converter. Each has a wiring assemble and they are screwed into the exhaust system itself. You will need to have the engine exhaust cold as there is a risk of burn injury if it is not. Simply remove the old one usung the proper wrenches and disconnect the wiring at the connector. Reinstall the new sensor and reconnect the wiring at the connector. Make sure that the sensor is completely seated. If you have any questions please ask.
