    Column Shifter vs Floor Shifter.

    Al: My girlfriend and I discussed this issue of floor vs. column shifter over a margarita. Her take on the issue is who cares? When she is driving with me the only shifter she is concerned about is the one between my legs. :leghumper

    Don't you Feel like a Jack A**

    Luke has been around for over 50 years. At that time the surrounding area was desert and farmland. The base came before the suburbs and this should come as no surprise to anyone living on that side of town. Well, I guess with exception to this clown. So in an effort to help my fellow...

    Eldorado Heater Core

    It is behind the glove box. Remove it and the right side sound insulator panel. Next remove the PCM ( programmer) and you will have access to the heater core. Good Luck

    heater issues for my 91 eldorado

    Bob: What a wealth of information out there for BMW and Nissan. You can find several vendors who carry the 'Blower Resistor' Cost is 4 bucks. Again, this is for BMW and Nissan vehicles mot GM. :rolleyes: The resistor, from what i read today is part of the vent relay switch, located on the...

    heater issues for my 91 eldorado

    You are correct, the heater core is behind the glove box. The "gate" is located where the duct and the blower meet. If the duct work has not been touched, don't mess with it as this is not the problem. that linkage piece can only get screwed up if the duct is removed from the blower. That AC...

    heater issues for my 91 eldorado

    lol. I guess you are right about chilton, it does make an excellent door stop. When you were working on the heater, did you remove any of the ducts? If you did then there is the possibility that this linkage did not reset properly. If not, I would check that AC resistor pack. I talked to a...

    Column Shifter vs Floor Shifter.

    My 1990 Eldo has a floor shifter and my 04 Expedition has a column shifter. Go figure? I like them both. The only problem is if I drive the Caddy for a few days and then drive the Expedition, I reach for the floor shifter that is not there. Then when I drive the Eldo, my first instinct is to...

    heater issues for my 91 eldorado

    it is going to be where your duct connects to the blower motor. That connection may be under the dash. What happens is the duct has gate which is opened by linkage from the motor. I looks something like a squared s -i_ . Also make sure that you have at least 25mm of clearance, about an...

    dim headlights

    I read your other posting and it sounds like the two issues are related. I worked in Hingham and know how hard the salt air can be under the hood. I would check the Battery and the voltage regulator for solid clean connectivity; no loose or worn wires. Check and test your headlight switch...

    Interior electrical ligiting problems/ 1990 ETC

    The window, seat adjustment and door lock controls located in the door panels do not illuminate. Neither do the Radio controls. The clock and tunning dial on the radio work fine. I have spent a couple of hours trying to trace the circuit with no luck. What I did discover is that the person...
