If temperature rises squeeze coolant hose, it should be firm like you could feel pressure on the hose a sign that the water pump is good. Thermostat opens only when coolant reach normal operating temperature.

If starter is clicking but not turning, usually an electrical problem or faulty solenoid. If nothing happens but lights dim, starter may be jamming. If no other electrical problems with the car (such as an intermittent battery failure), check the electrical connection at the solenoid for looseness or corrosion. If there is full 12V power at the starter solenoid and it still won't start, replace the starting motor.

Run's continuously ? High speed , low , med 1,2, 3 . ???? Probably the high speed relay contact's stuck closed . The fuse for the high blower is hot at all times , low blower fuse is hot only with key on. It sparks becaused the motor turns on . If it had a short the fuse would blow . The blower motor relay is part of the resistor pack near the blower motor .

Is the door ajar light lit on the insturment cluster ? If not ,it's not a door actuator or door ajar switch . Important: Perform new BCM setup when you replace Body Control Module (BCM). Refer to Body Control Module (BCM) Programming/RPO Configuration . Fuse Block Right side of the IP, in the right front door opening RAP relay ,contacts stuck closed . Right I/P fuse box ! Open the passenger door ,at the end of insturment panel pull plastic cover !

This happens with a couple of my GM cars. I wouldn't worry about it much.

Fuel filter...maybe. More likely a cam position sensor or throttle position sensor. Have a code reader check for codes to pinpoint the problem.
