Top 20 1992 Saturn SL2 Questions & Answers

I had this same problem and put a switch inside the car to turn on the relay remotely. But I believe it is the connection at the temperature sensor near the top of the transmission. My wires were stretched at this sensor from the factory. I have not tried to replace it rework it but if you used an ohm meter you could determine if the wires and or sensor have continuity. This is not the same sensor that runs the temperature gauge in the dash.

Part probably about $150. Labor about the same, $300. I'd try several competent repair shops for better estimates.

check the fuse box

Then you need a wiring diagram of the entire vehicle, before you can do anything Before you can trace wiring, you have to study how the circuits work & come up with your test points

ask gm to do it read the FSM. login to alldata.com and read how.

well first clean the area and find out what is exactly leaking. like make sure its not a valve cover gasket or ahead gasket. you can remove it and make sure it hasent got electrollisis and eaten away at the threads if it is the sensor itself i usually go to a pick and pull yard and grab one or two when u put it back on i recomend a tiny bit of teflon it will probably end up missing but it will also help keep it sealed that should cover just about every situation good luck, let me know how it goes coopaloop

I get my from advanceautoparts. I buy the Bosch ones, single wire. Make sure to put on anti-seize paste and some dielectric grease on the connector http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/bosch-premium-oxygen-sensor-13043/19370003-P?searchTerm=o2 Part No. 13043

It may be the antitheft system. The security, antitheft or lock picture/icon is a visual indication that something in the car's antitheft system is failing. In most GM cars and trucks there is a hidden system that most people are unaware even exists. From the moment you put your key in the ignition, there begins a constant line of communication between your key's security chip or transponder, to the ignition's lock cylinder, and then to the car's TDM (Theft Deterrent Module). These 3 parts are in CONSTANT communication. If the key is in the ignition, then these parts are sending signals to each other. The security light illuminates when that signal gets broken, even just for a second. When the signal breaks, the car misinterprets this as an attempt at theft and goes into antitheft mode. The car thinks its being stolen or hotwired because it is not getting that signal from YOUR specific key. This is why the security light turns on and shuts down the fuel to your vehicle. This link explains it pretty well. http://vatspasslockpasskeysecurityhelp.yolasite.com/

My uncle was a Saturn tech for 15 years he always told me you don't really need it all it does is cycles some of the exhaust back through the engine to burn off a little excess fuel. My 92 sl2 had over 500 k miles and didn't have it from day 1

if you just keep playing with it and it works sometimes it might be your starter if you remove it autozone or oreilleys will test it free but it sounds like your brushes are going bad let me know good luck, coopaloop

Replace the spark wires.

Change the flasher module ,the silver one under dash .

Replace fuel pressure regulator . Use one can injector cleaner in fuel tank .

sounds like you need to carbarader

Looks like a large muffler, in the exhaust pipe, near the engine.

There are 2 different engines for the 92 SL,they are 1992 Saturn SL 1.9L TBI SOHC 4cyl 1992 Saturn SL 1.9L MFI DOHC 4cyl Here's a link to the blower motor resister,it's located next to the blower motor,2 screws hold it on.

If it has a speed sensor it is mounted in the side of the transmission where the speedo cable would have been.

A Few dallars at your local parts store. You might need some fittings which they should have as well.

sounds like a bad strut start there and that should get rid of the noise

i am putting back a newstarter on a 1992 saturn is the support bracket really needed to reinstall
