A few issues that have arose that I have no idea how to fix...
First the cars key buzzer wont stop buzzing once the car is running. It just keeps buzzing but no issues with cars performance.
Now all gauges do not work. Shows no oil, water temp, or RPM.
Battery keeps going dead.
During start up the fuel pump doesnt make that normal whining noise as its priming. It now sound like two loud burps like instead of sucking in fuel its spitting it out. Really strange. car runs fine though, even when I rev it up.
Could it be a bad ignition switch? Bad key switch? I just replaced both two months ago with a Autozoo units.
FYI: I did remove that white button under the steering wheel that is the key release. I have never had any issues with the other cars I removed it from. All help appreciated.
Your car has an "overboost buzzer" and a "warning chime".
I'm guessing you are talking about the chime.
1. Key in the ignition and driver's door open = chime.
2. Lights on and driver's door open = chime.
3. Seat belt unbuckled and ignition swt. on = chime.
Does the dome light stay on, indicating the door is ajar?
buttstuffog or digital gauges?
Put a meter across the battery with the car running. You should have 14.5 volts if the alternator is charging.
Is the dome light staying on and draining the battery?
Don't know what to make of that.
The button is a safety device to keep from locking the steering wheel if you have to turn off the ignition while the car is moving.
I got the temp, oil, battery, and fuel to work. Only thing not working is the Tach and Speedo now.
Its the overboost buzzer that wont stop, not the chime
My tach and speedo quit working and it turned out to be that the plug-in on the back of the cluster wasn't fully plugged in.
Looking at the 87 EVTM, the buzzer should have voltage with the ignition in "run" and only have it's ground when the "Boost Pressure Switch" is closed.
Find the boost pressure switch behind the right shock tower and unplug the connector with W/PK and BK/LG wires.
The ignition switch in the diagram grounds the bulbs for the "lamp test" with the ignition swt in start.
Do you have a good picture of the fuse panel?
Ok I got the oil, temp,fuel, and charge meters to work by cleaning the connection in back of speedo cluster. Now the only thing not working is tach and speedo. I disconnected the buzzer by just unplugging the buzzer by removing the headlight switch and prying wiring away from buzzer. Would this cause tach and speedo not to work?
Shouldn't you try to actually find and fix whatever is causing the buzzer to constantly sound? Otherwise, how will you know if that is related to the tachometer and speedo not functioning?
