    I just got a 2002 GP GT w/103k and it has some, shall we say a few minor quirks. I don't wanna make more power or do any major mods just wanna know one thing, Why the hell won't my washer fluid spray???? I tried several times and nothing. I looked to see if a hose was disconnected, nope no puddles on the ground indicating a washer hose wasn't connected. Yes the washer tank was full of fluid. What is the problem? Is it an easy fix? How expensive is it going to be to fix? Also when I go over some bumps the trunk light on the dash flickers or blinks which I would think is a minor electrical issue. A short or bad connection maybe? Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    I'm assuming you aren't trying to wash the window by hitting the "mist" button? I've seen it.. Just asking.

    Yeah I am, it won't spray washer fluid and the tank is full.

    Have you pulled the inner fender well on the right side and listened to see if the washer pump is working, checked all your fuses?

    No I didnt, I just bought a new washer pump. It was only $16, so not going to break the bank. Where is the fuse panel located? I looked in the under the dash on both drivers side and passenger side. I'm new to GM cars so don't laugh at me too much. lol

    Uh..if you are pressing the mist button, that's not going to work the pump. You need to press the wash button. On the 97-03's it's closer to the wheel on the same stalk as the mist button.

    I tried both nothing worked. The pump was shot. It was burned out so I bought a new one.I also wanna know if there is a way to turn off the daytime running lights? I tried to pull the fuse in the glove box but when I turned my car on, the lights flasshed rapidly and I heard a ticking noise from under the dash on the drivers side of the dash board. Any Ideas of what that was about?

    Holy Crap!! I think I already do know who ya are. LOL I'm surprised I didnt catch that! Wow man small world. lol
    Hey I need some input here. I need to replace my head light lenses on the GP due to the bad hazing thats starting. I have tried the head light restore stuff and its not working, They need to be replaced. Anyway I'm thinking about getting some Black Euro Crystal Headlights like these. http://www.carpart4u.com/images/prod...ghts_Black.jpg
    Was wondering if anyone has these and how much light they cast. Does the Black bottom absorb any light? Or should I just get the OE replacement lights? Oh I found Black Euro Crystal Headlights online for a few buck less then the OE replacements.

    I've seen a few cars on here with those lights and they look good. If I had a 97-03 those would be the ones I would go with.
