Thread: I want to fix a few things on the GTP...

...once it comes out of storage May 19th. So here are some of the things that are wrong. When I turn the climate control to 2-4, the climate control turns off, my dash lights turn off, headlights turn off and I think the radio but I forgot. Is this just a simple fuse I need to replace? The driver's door weather stripping is coming off right near the edge of the door. And last but not least (so far) my "low coolant light" randomly goes on and off. I'm not low on coolant, and I replaced the sensor, filled the coolant and the sensor still goes on and off. That's about it for now. Any help would be much appreciated.

Have you changed your LIM gasket? I've seen the oil in the coolant gunk up the sensor and make it turn on randomly.

My coolant light does the exact same thing. Just filled it up with coolant too, I don't understand why it does that

I haven't changed the LIM gasket. O and the car has 71k if that makes a difference. dsmuts, do you know how to fix the climate control thing? Why is it shutting off the lights between 1-4?

I dont know on that one. I'd look for a short somewhere.

so everythings just shuts off when you switch between blower speeds?

My SE did this when the ignition switch went bad. I didn't fix it myself so the mechanic may have changed a relay for the climate control.

Headlights, dash lights, the center thing where the boost gauge and oil life are and I think the radio but I don't remember. Really sucked last winter when I had to drive home with no heat and then another time when it was dark out. I don't remember if I tried to adjust the blower speeds. I thought I read somewhere on this forum that another member had a similar problem when they tried to switch blower speeds. I have nothing when the blower speed is at 2, 3, 4 and maybe 1. And I forgot if everything randomly shuts off if the speed is at 1 or 5. They might still randomly shut off.
This is my main problem. The light and the inner weather stripping don't bother me as much. I had another problem, the ignition lock problem, but I fixed that by just removing the little mechanism.
