I have a 1997 pontiac grand prix that has several problems. First, all of the dash/dummy lights are on. Any suggestions where to start with this.
Also, none of the brake lights work, the tail lights and turn signals work. Tried changing out the switch at the brake pedal with no luck.
Last, the car will start up and when you drive it a little ways it dies. When you try to start it back up it will idle but when you press on the gas it idles up and starts shaking and dies. If you leave it sit for a period of time, like overnight it will run for a little while and do the same thing. Is it the fuel filter or dreaded fuel pump?
Dummy lights. I found that if the tire pressure low light reset button on a 1997 Pont grand prix is located under the steering dash. The button is yellow. Just push it in for 5 seconds and it will reset the indicator light.
If you have a engine service soon light on and the vehicle stalls often. Replace the MAF sensor. It runs about $250.00 from Auto Zone. They will credit back or pay back $92.00 for the old MAF part taken out. This will allow your 1997 Pont grand prix to run without idle problems and stalling issues.
Check all fuses for turn signal and brake lights.change fuel filter . first. do a little tune up change spark plugs and wires . if changing fuel filter dont help. have fuel pressure check first before buying a new fuel pump .they run after taxes 400.00 dollars. your fuel pressure should be 41 to 47 psi. replace fuel pump relay also.
