Thread: 97 grand prix issues

The motor could be getting tired. Also, lubriacte the window guides in the doors and run the window up and down a few times. The felt guides like to dry out and stick to the glass. It doesn't take much to make these windows stop. Also, the regulators like to break if the glass sticks too much, so get those windows moving good.

Only having setting 5 on the HVAC sounds like the blower motor resistor is shot. Do a quick search for this I know I've seen it mentioned.

The "low antifreeze" light is telling you the system is low on coolant. Let me guess, the low coolant light goes out if you are accelerating, but as soon as you maintain say 60mph the light comes back on?

Pull the oil dipstick and check to see if the oil looks like a chocolate milkshake or any other color than brown oil. If you see any orange or milky color to it then its coolant and you need to fix it now. Most likely the LIM gaskets need to be done as they are the most common source of leaks. Next would be the 2 plastic coolant elbows that are on the pass. front side of the motor. Also check the rad. cap and see if there is a bunch of brown gunk in it. If so, then a coolant flush is in order as well. The original orange Dexcool doesn't like being exposed to air like when the system has a leak somewhere and turns into mud which can cause all sorts of fun things eventually.

Ok ill check the oil and take the door panels off could any of these issues be the body control module
