How do you change the driver name and memory for seat and mirror adjustment on a 1997 buick park avenue ultra

I recently bought a used 1997 Buick Park Avenue. When you turn on the car it welcomes the previous driver. I am trying to figure out how to change the name. In addition to this my Buick is equipped with memory seats and mirrors. I am struggling with figuring out how to properly change the memory seats with my settings rather than the setting of the previous owner. If someone would please explain how to do this, I would be extremely grateful. Thanks, Sara

I am not sure about changing the name as my 2000 park ave. only indicates driver one or driver two. To reset the memory for seat/ mirror position is rather simple: with the ignition on and the car in park, adjust your seat and mirrors to the desired position. Then press and hold the desired button (driver one or two) until you hear a beep, This is the procedure that works on my 2000 park ave. I hope this helps you.

SOURCE: I have a Buick park avenue ultra and i cant locate the radiator

1997 Buick park avenue ultra

The radiator is in the front of the car under the hood behind the grille. It will be rectangular shaped and have a fan set to blow against it. It will have a cap on the top. DO NOT REMOVE THE CAP WHILE THE ENGINE IS HOT. Beside the radiator is another rectangular shaped item that looks like the radiator but is the condensor for the air conditioner. It does not have a cap on top and is in front of the radiator.

The drain for the radiator is on the lower part. After draining be sure to close the drain before refilling.
Refill the overflow bottle as well.
AFTER you refill, let the engine run for about a minute while topping off the radiator so any air will work out of the system.
Then install and tighten radiator cap.

When you drain the radiator, dispose of the fluid according to local regulations or recycling center. Do not allow animals to drink any of it. It's poisonous.
You can get an auto repair manual from library, auto parts stores or the internet.

I have a 91 Park Avenue Ultra. Drivers and passengers power seats, door locks and mirrors do not work any longer. Checked all fuses under the dash and in engine compartment and all check good. Any ideas?

There is a fuse that is usually the 2nd one over from the top of the fuse box that controls those units. It is often silver. Check the back of your cover...should name it. Try replacing it.

How to remount inside rearview mirror of 1997 Buick Park Avenue? I need to know how to remove the mounting plate from the mirror. Thank you.

Most mirror's have a small set screw holding them on the mounting plate, usually an allen head. You will need to get a mirror installation kit (glue) from a parts store. Most "chain" stores should carry them. What ever you do, DO NOT USE SUPER GLUE. The package should have clear instructions, just follow them and you should be fine.

Good Luck

No power to the mirrors,driver seat,door lock ,power antenna

some relays are in the fuse panel and some are under the hood in a box.

Relays are used when high current is involved. seats and windows use relays as well as fuses. Your owner manual should say where the underhood relays are. Or call your dealer service department.
