Have you had a hard time putting gasoline in the tank (pump kicks off repeatedly, gas shoots back out of car)? The "charcoal canister" was my problem. A bit pricey, they are.
2009 saturn aura hard steering I was told that the steering motor moduel was bad so I replaced it still hard to steere what could it be
Who told you , was it checked for DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes ? Rather then just replacing parts why don't you take it to a qualified repair shop . Besides , the new module need's Programming and Setup , and a factory scan tool to do it .
Steering Position Sensor Calibration
Install the scan tool.
Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
Center the steering wheel.
With the scan tool select Special Functions.
Select Steering Position Sensor Calibration and press the Enter key. The scan tool screen will flash Calibration in Progress then display Calibration Complete.
Press the exit key.
Use the scan tool in order to clear any EPS DTCs.
Where is the knock sensor located
I'm not an expert on the Aura, but most Saturn engines have the knock sensor on the back of the engine near the firewall. It'll be almost right in the middle.
Engine sputters and hiccups when driving
Sounds like you have a cylinder misfire. Is check engine light on ?, Have you had the vehicle somewhere to get a code scan? My assumption is that you have an ignition problem that is causing the rough idle and jerk feeling while driving.
Take the vehicle to a shop and have them diagnose the driveability problem that you are having.
How do I program keyless remote?
You'll need to take to a GM dealer !
The scan tool must stay connected until all of the transmitters are programmed.
Install a scan tool. Turn ON the ignition with the engine OFF. With the scan tool, select Body. Select Remote Control Door Lock Receiver (RCDLR). Select Module Setup. Select Program Key Fobs. Select the key fob desired to be programmed. Follow the scan tool on screen instructions. Remove the scan tool. Exit the vehicle. Operate all functions on transmitters to verify correct system operation.
What is the name of the outer ring that has copper wires behind it? its around the cylinder key lock and its the ring surrounding the part that says ACC n ON?
This is part of the anti-theft system , immobilizer ! The vehicle theft deterrent (VTD) system functions are provided by the theft deterrent module (TDM). When an ignition key is inserted into the ignition lock cylinder and the ignition is switched ON, the transponder embedded in the head of the key is energized by the exciter coils surrounding the ignition lock cylinder. The energized transponder transmits a signal that contains a unique value, which is received by the TDM. The theft deterrent control module then compares this value to a value stored in memory, learned key code. If the value is correct, the TDM sends a random generated number to the transponder. This is called a challenge. Both the transponder and the TDM perform a calculation on the challenge. If the calculations match, the TDM sends the fuel continue password via the serial data circuit to the engine control module (ECM). If either the transponders unique value or the calculation to the challenge is incorrect, the TDM will send the fuel disable password to the PCM via the serial data circuit. The components of the VTD system are as follows:It is a theft deterrent module !
2009 Saturn Aura cranks over wont start
All engines that are gas powered need 3 basic things .
AIR comeing in to the engine GAS comeing into the engine and something to ignite the fuel air mixture inside the cylinders.
First check the air take the filter and the duck work off the top of throttle body.Look into the the T body make sure the plate moves freely and there is nothing in side it like a dead mouse or something like that.
Next check the electrical most vehicles disturbtor cap that the coil wire and all of the spark plug wires plug into. You don't say what engine you have some vehicles have what are called coil packs witch is basicly indiuvidual coils for one or more spark plugs .In eighter case you can pull off the coil wire have someone else crank the vehicle hold the connecter an inch or so away from ware you unpluged from you should see a spark.If you can't figure out ware the coil is take out a spark plug .Plug the wire back on it and touch it to the engine block while someone cranks the engine you should see a spark that means its working you might want to ware rubber gloves .
Next is the fuel witch is the most likely cause cloged fuel filter bad fuel relay bad fuel pump or problems with fuel injection or even bad gas water in it.
If the spark works at this point take an ounce of good gas and poor it into the throttle body if it starts then you know its a fuel not getting to engine issue and you need to check all fuel related systems .
I know this may sound complex but if you have to take it to someone to repair it at least you will have a good idea of what you need to fix and won't get taken to the cleaners witch happens alot
Good luck
How to remove camshaft
This is a lot of work. You need a manual for this job. Not so much to tear it down, but putting it back together. You need specifications and timing marks. You have to remove everything off the front of the engine and the valve cover to remove the cam. Again, putting it back together is critical.
