Where is the turn signal flasher on the 2008 Buick enclave

More than likely the problem in in the turn signal switch and not the flasher. But first, make sure that the bulbs are good. One bad one will keep the other from working, Using the emergency flasher, see if they are all working.

2008 Buick enclave Sunroof is stuck in tilt position very slightly but I can't shut it or open it? Fuse is good.

My car had same problem. Found out it has a manual override by pushing dial in or out. Can't remember that part but was able to shut and was fine after that. Hope it works.

2008 Buick Enclave; front passenger, no power to

Do you know anything about automotive electronic's ? Serial data Communication network ? Electronic module's inside the vehicle doors , communicate commands ! No relay ,no fuse . If the passenger mirror is selected and a direction switch is activated, the DDM sends a serial data message to the PDS indicating that the passenger mirror was selected and the direction to be commanded. The PDS will then supply battery voltage and ground to the appropriate control circuits for the direction selected. DDM - driver's door module Door Lock System Components The power door lock system consists of the following components: • Driver door module (DDM) • Passenger door module (PDM) • Door lock relay--Located in the instrument panel (I/P) fuse block and controls the locking of the rear doors. • Door unlock relay--Located in the I/P fuse block and controls the unlocking of the rear doors • Body control module (BCM) • IP BEC • Reversible door lock actuators in each door Power Window System Components The power window system consists of the following components: • Driver door module (DDM) • Body control module (BCM) • Passenger door module (PDM) • Rear door power window switches • Power window motors in each of the doors (circuit breaker protected) Your best bet , take it to a qualified repair shop that has a diagnostic scanner that can pull code's an view input data form these systems . There is one circuit breaker for the window's an fuse's for the lock's . I would think a data network problem . But that would be a guess , without testing anything is possible on these .

Where do I find the 2008 Buick Enclave neutral safety switch

It's called a Manual Shift Detent (w/Shaft Position Switch) Lever Assembly. And it's inside the transmission . What problem are you having ? No crank , when you turn the ignition switch to the start position nothing happens ? No click ,nothing ? If your think of just replacing the switch ,stop , did you have it diagnosed ? This starting system is computer controlled . When the ignition switch is placed in the Start position, a discrete signal is supplied to the body control module (BCM) notifying it that the ignition is in the Start position. The BCM then sends a message to the engine control module (ECM) notifying it that CRANK has been requested. The ECM verifies that the transmission is in Park or Neutral. If it is, the ECM then supplies 12 volts to the control circuit of the crank relay. When this occurs, battery positive voltage is supplied through the switch side of the crank relay to the S terminal of the starter solenoid. DTC P0615: Starter Relay Control Circuit have the vehicle checked .

2008 Buick Enclave The sound comes on and off when it wants. The sound for music, blinkers and back up alarms do this, although the stereo looks like it working just fine. What's the problem?

Saying this or that is the problem won't work with your vehicle , an most all vehicle's . Given the amount of electronic's (computers C.A.N communication networks etc.. ) The BCM - body control module uses input's from ignition switch signals to determine what mode the vehicle is in . The BCM energizes relay's an sends messages on the serial data network to wake up other modules . The radio is also on the C.A.N network , signals from the BCM could be turning it on , as well as the turn signals , because the BCM functions the turn signals too . The LT/TRN/SIG and RT/TRN/SIG fuses in the I/P fuse block supplies battery positive voltage to the body control module (BCM). When the turn signal switch is placed in either the left or right position, a signal is sent to the BCM to illuminate the desired turn signal lamps. The BCM has an internal flasher that sends an ON-OFF voltage signal to either the left or right turn signals and their instrument panel cluster (IPC) indicator. When the hazard switch is pressed, a separate ground signal is sent to the BCM to activate and flash all turn signal lamps including both IPC turn indicators. The front and rear turn signals are grounded at G401. How to Diagnose Controller Area Network CAN This is something best left to a qualified repair that has the proper tools to diagnose it .

My 2008 buick enclave wont start but the alarm keeps sonuding off

I think i know what the issue is.. it sounds like your security system is failing. It is very common in that type of vehicle. I had the samyoue thing happen to my car. i found a module that will fix the issue, it bypasses the security system and allows your car to start every time. You can install this yourself.. Your car is on the list year make and model for this problem. Check out the site ask questions.. if you buy it and it somehow doesnt work they will refund %100. It is easy to install and they send you directions. I hope this helps ya http://vatspasslockpasskeysecurityhelp.com/ Do It Yourself GM Security bypass

My 08 bucik enclave cxl when you try to start it just speeds . Then after 3 or 4 time it starts what could be the problem

Do you mean that on the first few attempts the starter runs but doesn't engage the engine to turn it over? If so, you have a bad bendix in the starter or there is something preventing the bendix from moving fully into the flywheel engage position.

How do I change the output transmission speed sensor on a 2008 Buick Enclave?

Well.. first you might want to put the vehicle on jack stands... because that unit is on the bell housing of the transmission. And it's probably going to be up against the fire wall side of the vehicle...

P2179 is on in my 2008 Buick enclave and 3.6 and stabilitrack light is on also.

This code refers to a lean condition on cylinder bank 2. The stabilitrac will disable on most vehicles if the check engine light comes on. You may have a vacuum leak from one of the hoses causing this code. Clearing the codes should put stabilitrac back in service.
