1993 Buick Century - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

The Buick Century uses separate relays for the hazard warning and turn signal functions. The turn signal relay is located on the accelerator pedal bracket, and the 4-way flasher relay is located on the convenience center near the left kick panel.

The fuel pump will run on a prime cycle for approx 5 seconds whenever the key is turned on, but only after it has been off for at least 10 seconds and whenever there is oil pressure.

You could be sitting on a hot seat - literally. There is probably a wire shorting out under your seat and it has a control wire for the seat adjustment motors. Adjust your seat and go to the fuse box and read the labels. Pull out the fuse from the slot that contains the seat power supply.

My experience has been they are not interchangeable - a number of sensors are usually unique to the specific cluster type installed.

Hi Terri: Considering the age of the vehicle I would be suspicious that the radiator is probably pretty corroded on the inside. A good project would be to drain the coolant (being environmentally conscious) and flush the radiator. You should be able to determine if the coolant is flowing freely or if the inside is clogged with scale. Could be that it's time for a new radiator.

Could be cracked wire at door hinge area where they flex.

check to make sure there is a relay for the hazard lights as normally the switch just connects the 4 flashers and works thought the indicator flasher unit.

Maybe tank is full? Could be something was shoved in the tube that runs from the gas cap to the tank.

Hey Mike, that just means the rod has come off between the shifter and the indicator needle. Gonna be hard to get ot but it can be done.

Stop by a dealer and let them show you a picture of them in the parts dept.

If you are talking about the coolant over flow??? You may have a bad radiator cap, maybe low on coolant, maybe thermostat. You haven't provided a lot of details here so it's hard to say for sure.
