20 Most Recent 2004 Chevrolet Aveo Questions & Answers

Question edited for clarity. Question moved to model category. If it is a push toggle switch (push for on, push again for off), yes they are very unreliable as it all relies on a spring and a contact. Easy to check with a multimeter. It could also be a broken wire in the harness that goes from the door to the frame https://www.google.com/search?q=2004+Chevy+Aveo.+passenger+windows+lockout+switch ..

This is an old thread, however here are some tips: Time to get strut nuts off: 2/3 days because I needed a really strong (impact) 22mm socket - 6 point and a 60cm breaker bar. Time tot get *** old wheel bearing out: 2/3 days because I needed bearing press kit and it takes about 100Kg of force to turn the 60cm breaker bar to squeeze out the old bearing and you better make 100% sure you have lined up the bearing pushing things and the thing that collects the bearing the other end. Project bearing installation is now starting ;)

Try these...the same thing happened to me last year and I found these. Mine was 3346; good luck.

Connecting it to a scan tool will give you the answer in the form of codes, AKA DTC codes. The engine light is the clue, the scan tool tells the answers via the codes. All the codes are online. Chevy Aveo code P****

We've repaired 3 at our Chevy shop so far so you'll have to trust me when I say it's not for the faint of heart or for anyone without the special tools it takes to hold the cams in place. It is quite a job! Sorry!!

Could be a fuel pump failureYou don't always get a code for everyvehicle problemTakes some old school thinking & testingto find these issues

A couple of days ago my brake lights on my 2004 Chevy Aveo wouldn't work, so I attempted to remove the lamp covers to check the bulbs. Also, before this my shifter would get stuck in park and could only be released by pressing the unlock gadget next to the shifter. Back to the brakes...Well, you open the trunk and remove the two screws just like the manual said, but it was very hard to pull off. There's 2 prongs holding the other half of the light on. The lamp will come loose by prying it (very hard). You think the cover will break, but it'll come loose. The bulbs were all OK.

After much frustration and internet info, the STOP LAMP SWITCH, GM#96436331 ($9.30 at Chevy dealer), which is located under the dash and has contact with the brake pedal, was defective. Once replaced, both my brake lights AND SHIFTING problems were cured. So if the brake lights suddenly don't work or you have problems getting the vehicle out of park, check the switch by pushing the prong (end that has contact with brake) of the switch in and out. If it doesn't retract smoothly...that's the PROBLEM. Good Luck.

Not all cars are equipped with a block heater...in fact the vast majority of cars aren't...If you have one it is in the engine blocks cooling jacket, or it may be in the radiator hose. If you can locate a 3 prong electrical plug on the front of your Aveo, follow the cord back to the engine and you'll see where it is.

You should get a set of AC gauges so you can see what the pressures are because quite possibly the compressor is neutralized meaning it's not pumping and would need to be replaced... That is the most common problem associated with the system being full of freon and the compressor turning on but not blowing cold... If the gauges are reading the same pressure on both the low in the high sign with the compressor running that means it's neutralized and needs replaced...

Have you checked the fuses? when the wires were severed there is a good chance that they also shorted and blew the fuse.

Do you hear the fuel pump running when you turn the key to on? I usually open the fuel filler door and listen while an assistant turns the ignition switch. It should run for a few seconds. If you need further help, reach me via phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/tom_1788908372a4836f

light sensor is going bad..or bad light switch. Sensor are usually located in center of dash facing the windshield. Clean it first and see it that helps.
