Hey guys, this is my first post since migration over from TrailVoy. The short story is I was driving with my family and the service brakes notification came on with the chimes and ABS/PB light, the transmission started feeling like it couldn't find the correct gear, the spedo started jumping all over, and discovered later that when the A/C is turned on the fan blows fine out of all vents, but the drives side blows very hot, while the pass blows ice cold.
Longer, I have a 2004 Biuck Rainier that we bought with 100400 miles on it and it currently has 118000, It has the P/S leak, we are working at fixing it, but currently are just putting fluid in it every week, so there's a lot of P/S fluid all over everything. Vehicle usually drives fine, we did have the problem dash, checked the underhood ground and that seemed to have fixed it (hasn't been back in like 4 years). The drivers side hub needs to be changed, I have the part, just need the socket. Paid the truck off Saturday, and no kidding, Sunday...fing Sunday, this happens. Drove it in the morning, and afternoon. Were going to get some school clothes for the kids and on our way out of the 'hood the chimes go off, brake lights come on, trans starts hunting for gear, spedo starts jumping all over.
Looked through the forums for a few days, saw all the "it's the ground under your feet on the frame" posts, but those were also always for just the brake issue, not all of this together. I pulled in into the driveway, cleaned the TB, changed the plugs and air filter (I have a fuel filter, just not changed yet). That did not work, My assumption is that it IS an electrical issue because of everything happening at the same time. I did hit the most common called out ground on the frame, nothing, hit three others under the hood. Still problem.
So help me you guys...the NEXT DAY! I love reading the forums so much info, that I know what to do usually even before there is a problem.
Help me, nation!
