    The fog lights on my '89 have always switched on and off independent of the headlights. Now they only come on with the low beams. I have a fsm but have yet to find a good wiring schematic for troubleshooting. Any suggestions to find the problem!?

    Auto Trans Misses Shift?

    The 700R4 in my '89 has been having an intermittent problem. Under hard accelleration when in OD over 55 mph, it suddenly feels like it comes out of gear and the engine revs free. Sometimes it will vibrate bad and feel like it's trying to shift back in. Other times, you can let up on the...

If I clean the contacts with sandpaper or scrape them with a file, it runs great again. I've tried caps with brass and with aluminum contacts. The same...

    What's Going On Here?

    OK, this is driving me a bit nuts. I've driven my '89 for 14 years and thought I've seen it all. Just turned 200,000 miles and the car has been great. Other than normal maintenance stuff (which I do mostly myself), never had any serious problems. The engine has never been opened up. So...

    Ltpws

    I have a LTPWS light on. Is there any way to determine which wheel sensor is faulty other than dismounting tires one at a time? Any other tests that can be done to troubleshoot this system?

    Trouble Code 36

    I have had an SES Code 36 for some time now. I haven't noticed any performance problems. In reading some of the threads on this code, I understand that I should check the MAF relay and MAF burnoff relay. My question is, where are they located on a 1989 C4? I found 2 relays behind the...
