How do I remove the unti from the dash if I do not have the release hook plates?

have not worked on one that new, but the ones that I have worked on have pins attached to the back side of the trim plate. You have to very carefully slide a smooth edged knife or screwdriver between the dash pad and the trim plate and pull straight out ward carefully. Do not twist if possible because it is very easy to damage the dash or the trim plate. And be carefull not to lose the steel clips that are on the trim plate pins as they release from the dash.

The flasher is a one pievce unti that operated the 4 ways and the turns and is built into the hazard light switch. You have to remove dash and take it out from the rear of the dash panel

1. • 1 Start the engine of the car and allow it to run for a few minutes. Adjust the climate controls. If they do not feel right, then the problem is probably in the control panel. If the controls feel fine, but have no effect on the air then it is probably a blown fuse. If you cannot hear the accompanying blowing sound when the air is turned from low to high, then the problem is in the blower motor.
     
   • 2 Disconnect the black negative battery cable first when looking for the blower motor. Remove the trim panel and unplug the electrical connectors from the blower motor. Unscrew the retaining screws and remove the blower motor and fan.
     
   • 3 Check the control panel next. Disconnect the negative battery cable first. Remove the screws securing the cluster trim plate to the instrument panel and tilt the top of the cluster trim plate downward releasing the clips that mount the bottom of the trim plate to the dash.
     
   • 4 Remove the trim plate. Remove the screws attaching the accessory trim center plate to the dash. Tilt the top of the accessory trim plate downward releasing the clips that mount the bottom of the plate to the instrument panel.
     
   • 5 Use a screwdriver to unscrew the screws attaching the control assembly to the dash. Remove the control assembly from the dash. Disconnect the electrical connectors and remove the control assembly.
     
   • 6 Replace a blown fuse in your Grand Am easily. There are two interior fuse boxes in Grand Am, but the right fuse will be found on the passenger side. Open the door and pry off the side panel to the right of the dashboard. Use the guide on the inside of the panel to find the right fuse.
     

COULD BE THE SENDING UNIT FROM THE TANK! TO ACCESS IT, MAY BE FROM UNDER THE BACK SEAT! THERE WILL BE A ROUND PLATE MOUNTED ON THE FLOOR! YOU'LL HAVE TO REMOVE THAT PLATE, TO GET ACCESS TO THE SENDING UNTI! THERE WILL BE MOUNTING BOLTS HOLDING IT TO THE TANK, ALONG WITH WIRES ATTACHED TO IT! YOU'LL HAVE TO REMOVE THE WIRES FROM THE SENDING UNIT, THEN UNBOLT IT! REMOVE THE SENDING UNIT, AND REPLACE IT! BE SURE YOU HAVE A NEW GASKET FOR THE SENDING UNIT, OTHERWISE IT MAY LEAK! BOLT THE NEW SENDING UNIT BACK IN, AND HOOK THE WIRES BACK UP! BE SURE TO UNHOOK THE NEGATIVE WIRE FROM THE BATTERY BEFORE YOU DO THIS!

If I've understood u correctly follow the wire from the fan to the switch which is usually mounted on or by the thermostat housing. Remove the coolant cap to releive the pressure. Remove the plug from the switch & Use a wrench to remove it but have the replacement one ready to install (thread sealer etc) & prepare for some coolant loss. put in the new one & tighten it snug but not over tighten. Plug it back in & u should be good to go

Let me know if this helps out.

Remove the 5 mounting screws from the instrument cluster trim plate and remove the trim plate. Remove the 4 mounting screws from the instrument panel face plate and remove the face plate.Remove the instrument light grid from the center of the cluster. From behind the instrument cluster reach behind the speedometer and disconnect the speedometer cable by releasing the tab. Pull the cluster forward just enough to detach the "check engine" light bulb from the center of the cluster. Remove the instrument cluster from the dashboard.

REMOVAL:

1. Lift clutch pedal to uppermost position to disengage clutch and brake pedal pivot shaft.
2. Push clutch and brake pedal pivot shaft forward and unhook clutch release lever cable from clutch and brake pedal pivot shaft and allow it to slowly swing rearward.

i cant seem to remove the unit from the dash ? thanks zac

There are only 4 ways to open a Fiero trunk. With the key, with the electric trunk release, with a locksmith, and with a big hammer and screwdriver.

Some year Fieros required the parking brake be applied to activate the electric release, some had to be in park, and some of the early models would work just by pushing the button. The ground is through the latch, itself. If anything has gotten on the body portion of the latch and the trunk was closed, like a towel or plastic bag, that prevents the trunk portion from making metal to metal contact with the body striker, the release won't activate. If you can put power to the car, insert a key into the trunk lock, clamp one end of a negative jumper cable to it, and the other end underneath to some part of the frame. Hit the release button. This trick completes the ground circuit directly into the latch mechanism and bypasses the body striker plate.

If this doesn't work, remove the release switch from the dash, unplug it, and apply power with a 9V flashlilght battery to the terminals. You may have to play with the emergency brake handle during these processes.
