Re: door locks won't work with switch but will work with FOB

Re: Bad Gas Mileage

Clean your MAF sensor with MAF spray cleaner. This fixed my gas mileage issue. There are 2 elements. they should be silver. If they look dark,black, or brown. Get the cleaner and spray them. When these are dirty the computer will get wrong readings from the sensor and gas mileage will be effected.

Re: Car not starting

If your check engine light is on start there. (if it is on) sensors will cause all types of wacky symptoms as well as bad coil packs, or like stated above tune up components.

Re: AC/ Heat not blowing at all!!!!

you may be able to give it a kick on the passenger side cover behind the glove box to get it going temporary till you have time to replace it.

Re: Annyoing knocking/banging when going over bumps

Also Check your rear control arm bushings. When these go bad you get a clanging noise. You may also get a little side rear end wander/ sway movement when you go over bumps driving down the road.
