There is no slip ring on this car, it uses a rotating ribbon connection called the clock spring contact drum

SOURCE: 2001 olds alero, When I step on the breaks it

Did you also replace the brake pads? If not, the wear from the warped rotors most likely caused uneven wear on the pads (not visible by looking at them, but apparent when you apply the brakes). This is probably causing it feel like the rotors are still warped. I don't believe your anti-lock brakes have anything to do with this.

2001 VW Bug Horn was randomly honking, Now it wont work at all. Relays and Fuses are good. Should I just replace the horn itself? Not quite sure whats the issue.Want to figure out before making drive

it the horn activates randomly when driving and when the steering wheel is moved , the problem will be the ground contact under the steering wheel
there is a small spring loaded button that runs on a slip ring in the back of the steering wheel and intermittent/ random operation can be traced back to a fault in this area
the horn works so it is good , the fuses and relays are working to make the horn work so they are good ( unless there is a grounding problem with the relay causing the relay to operate and blow the horn)

What would be the cause of a horn not working on a 2002 oldsmobile alero?

loose connection, remove front of steering wheel and check underneath. theres a copper ring, that when you press the horn it should make contact with another copper bit . or you need a new horn (where the sound actually comes out), or the 2 wires that go into the actual horn have come loose. you can find the actual horn usually by looking under the front of the car.

2002 lincoln ls horn radio controls cruise control wiring diagram dont work

I'll guess that your air bag light is on as well? Sounds Like you need a new clockspring in the steering wheel. This device replaced the old copper slip rings when air bags come out.

2001 Oldsmobile Alero 2.4l engine, 244400 miles - radiator is leaking at drain plug. This happened after I drained the rad. for replacement. of hoses. Can the plug be replaced without putting in a new...

you can try removing the plug and seeing if it is a gasket or an o-ring that seals it to the radiator. You should be able to find an o-ring or a gasket that will work at your local parts store. If replacing the o-ring or gasket does not work than the radiator will need to be replaced. We no longer drain radiators with the petcock for this reason.

Alarm keeps going off

Ground short in the steering column. Pretty common on Alero's, sadly.
