All the dash lights are on, fluids are topped off. Hard to turn over. AC not working.

Repair shop said it was an electrical problem.

    Hi Anonymous, do you mean it is difficult to crank, or difficult to start ?

Why does light come on for power steering on 2006 hhr

I am sort of guessing but steering light is probably on because the brain believes there is a fault; low fluid level, low pressure or something else.

The vehicle handbook will explain the precise function of the light.

My Acura RDX started blowing hot air....no indication on dash....help

You must mean your AC stopped blowing cold air.
This would not cause any dash lights to indicate a problem.
As your car can continue operating indefinitely with out the AC working. It only effects your comfort.
Now what to do.
Most people don't have the tools or the knew how to work on AC.
So it's most likely time to take your car to a good auto repair shop most have the tools to fix AC.

Why would brake light come on when I press down fast and hard? Not during regular driving. Could it be brake fluid? I just had the pads changed less than 6 mo. ago

I assume you are referring to the brake light on the dash.....yes, this most certainly be the issue, especialy if th fluid had not been checked and/or topped up.........note : if you are going to be driving the car above 'normal', you definetly should be checking all fluid levels........

1997 Eagle Talon AC button switch blinks AC won't work

If the button is blinking, this means the clutch is either worn out, or the clutch is not engaging because of an electrical problem. Check the electrical connection going to the AC, does it look alright? Is there any fluid inside the connector? I would replace the AC compressor if the clutch persists to not engage.

I’m happy to help further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jeremy_69f3cc28d95bf514
