Instrument cluster microprocessor maybe. Taking to a qualified repair shop that has a factory or professional type scan tool to check for DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes for the instrument cluster . Checking B+ power an ground's for the instrument cluster . Diagnostic Starting Point - Instrument Panel, Gages and Console Begin the system diagnosis with the Diagnostic System Check - Instrument Cluster or Diagnostic System Check - Audible Warnings . The Diagnostic System Check will provide the following information: • The identification of the control modules which command the system • The ability of the control modules to communicate through the serial data circuit • The identification of any stored diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) and their status The use of the Diagnostic System Check will identify the correct procedure for diagnosing the system and where the procedure is located. Install a scan tool. Does the scan tool power up? Go to Step 2 Go to Scan Tool Does Not Power Up in Data Link Communications 2 Turn the ignition ON, with the engine OFF. Attempt to establish communication with the following control modules: • Body Control Module (BCM) • Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM) • Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM) • Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) • Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Does the scan tool communicate with the control modules listed above?

The mode switch is vacuum controlled , do you know anything about vacuum controls , how to test vacuum circuits ? here is a factory diagnostic flow chart for what to test. HVAC Air Delivery System Check Step Action Yes No 1 Start the engine. Turn the blower motor fan ON and select an air outlet mode. Does air flow out of the selected HVAC outlet ducts? YES - Go to Step 3 NO - Go to Step 2 2 Did the customer concern mention that the air discharges out the correct ducts at first, but then changes during higher engine RPM? YES - Go to Step 7 NO - Go to Step 3 3 With the engine running, cycle the HVAC controls through all the modes. Does the air come out of the selected outlet ducts? YES - Go to Step 18 NO - Go to Step 4 4 With the engine running, take a vacuum reading at the manifold vacuum port that supplies vacuum to the HVAC vacuum control assembly. Is there engine vacuum? YES - Go to Step 6 NO - Go to Step 5 5 Repair the no vacuum condition. Is the repair complete? YES -- Go to Step 18 -- 6 Take a vacuum reading at the vacuum supply line at the HVAC vacuum control assembly. Is the vacuum reading the same as the engine vacuum? YES - Go to Step 11 NO - Go to Step 8 7 Disconnect the vacuum supply line from the HVAC vacuum control assembly. With the vacuum gauge connected to the vacuum supply line, re-start the engine and turn the engine OFF. Does the system lose vacuum after turning OFF the engine? Go to Step 8 Go to Step 11 8 Inspect for leaking or collapsed vacuum lines between the engine manifold vacuum port and the HVAC vacuum control assembly. Are the vacuum lines leaking? Go to Step 9 Go to Step 10 9 Repair or replace the collapsed or leaking vacuum line. Is the repair complete? Go to Step 18 -- 10 Replace the vacuum reservoir tank. Is the repair complete? Go to Step 18 -- 11 Using an external vacuum source, apply vacuum to the appropriate vacuum line at the connector to the HVAC vacuum control assembly. Does the actuator retract? Go to Step 17 Go to Step 12 12 Inspect for leaking or collapsed vacuum lines between the actuator and the connector to the HVAC vacuum control assembly. Are the vacuum lines leaking? Go to Step 9 Go to Step 13 13 Disconnect the vacuum line from the actuator. Apply an external vacuum source to the actuator. Did the actuator retract? Go to Step 14 Go to Step 16 14 With the actuator disconnected, inspect the door for binding. Does the door move freely? Go to Step 16 Go to Step 15 15 Repair the appropriate binding door. Is the repair complete? Go to Step 18 -- 16 Replace the appropriate vacuum actuator. Is the repair complete? Go to Step 18 -- 17 Replace the HVAC vacuum control assembly. Is the repair complete? Go to Step 18 -- 18 Cycle the HVAC controls through all modes to verify proper operation. Did you correct the condition? System OK --

If your talking about the hub nut, if gray in color, 173 ft lbs. If the hub nut is black in color, 248 ft lbs. Evidently there are two styles of hub nuts.

Of couse there is a fuse , plus a relay ,wiring , switch in the steering wheel , horn slip ring etc... Testing at the relay could be done if you knew how. . If the fuse was blown it would be because of a electrical short . Fuse don't blow for no reason . VEHICLE RELAYS Operation Diagnosis

could be a faulty radiator cap or it could have a blown head gasket or crack in the block first change the radiator cap then if that dosent help take out all of the spark plugs and do a compression test on each cylinder!

Fuel pump relay may be weak. Try removing the connector from the oil pressure switch and connecting the terminals together so as to bypass the switch. if this works, replace the relay.

my suggestion for an 18 year old car is to overhaul the whole break system for guarenteed safety and confidence. if you have never done this during the cars life time , change the discs, all rubber gromets and o rings , pads and the break fluid. this will give you 100% assurance that you can count on your breaks when you really need them. Makes driving your car much more reliable.
