They will explain a lot as this is/was/always has been a frequent problem. There are three such sensors on the car. One for the...

    Top won't do down

    Your problem is likely to be the folding top position sensor. It is a potentiometer on the driver side folding top hinge. You can reach it with your hand with the top halfway open (rear window vertical.) It is just behind the drivers seat. It has a wire running to it. It may be loose or bad. It...

    pre inspection checklist

    Be sure to check the well in the driver side truck. Under the carpet there is a cardboard lid. It contains the folding top module and stabilitrack. Check for water or signs of previous water on the sides. Check the pc boards for signs of white corrosion that would indicate previous water. While...

    low oil light and low oil pressure coming on but no leak and the car is sitting still

    Our low brake fluid message came on the recently when parked on a downhill slope, then went away. We were slightly low on fluid I believe due to pad wear @ 43K miles. Topped it off. We typically idle at 20 PSI at 190 to 210 degrees, 40+ PSI when cold. Dave

    The wrong kind of chick magnet

    We belong to the raccoon club. Two lane road at night. Hit it with the right front. It checked the paint a little down low and blew out some wheel well rivets. We later found the poor critters teeth lodged it the tire! :gap: Hope that's it for us
