SOURCE: brake drums

There is no opening to access the rear drum adjuster. Grab a good size hammer and hit the outside of the drum directly on the flat part to loosen it up, then just pull it off. Don't be afraid to hit it hard. And remember... Don't hit the lug studs! Hope this helps.

SOURCE: 2002 Buick La Sabre. Some of the inst. cluster bulbs not light

Hello manderfield, The bulbs are replaceable but it requires complete disassembly of your cluster and above average soldering and de-soldering skills. The cluster removal process requires removing the trim molding that surrounds the cluster. There are several screws along the bottom and sides of the trim that you will need to remove before un-snapping the main section. You can lower the tilt steering wheel and place you transmission in low gear to help provide room for the trim and cluster removal. Thanks Mike www.kincerservice.com

SOURCE: How do I replace license light bulbs in my 1995

I have a 2002 which is a little different body style but it may be the same process. You have to take the back plastic section that holds the license plate loose from the car. There are bolts that are inside the trunk that hold the plastic panel on. Mine are in the trunk lid. If your plastic panel, license plate, etc. goes up with the trunk lid they are in the lid. You need deep type sockets to reach the nuts, at least mine does.

What would cause oil pressure to drop to 0 after replacing oil pressure sensor on 2000 Buick la sabre

Why did you need to change it? Did you have low pressure?
Is the sensor telling the truth? You may have to get a mechanic to rig up a manual gauge to your oil system to ascertain the actual pressure by diagnosis. Is the sensor right for your engine?
Tell us a bit more of the history of your problem.

Service stabilizer light comes on, how do you service it. our buick is a 2002 Buick La Sabre, 4dr.

The message means that a fault has occurred in the system and you need to have it diagnosed by the dealer with a special testing tool called a scanner, it is not some kind of a service like an oil change that is performed on a regular basis, the message is kind of misleading and i get this question often..

Oil light.

cheapest thing to do is replace oil pressure sender ,unless you have an oil pressure gauge to test actual pressure,sender should be near oil filter housing could be 1 to 3 wire connector,you'll need special socket to r&r part,also make sure car idles normal when hot, if surging or low you may get light flicker in drive.
