Few Questions & Help

[djp]

In my system diagnostics center i am getting a "Oil Tempature Signal Error" , Does anyone know how can this be fixed? It happened after a oil change a few years back just never bothered to look into it, now that im back into my mark im trying to fix every little thing wrong with it.

Also, My anti lock break light is constantly on in the information center. not sure what that is about, but the breaks are great.

also, does anyone know where i can find a new Grey colored center console lid, I have been searching everywhere and only found other colors on ebay. I still have the one that should be there but its like where it screws in is all cracked up and stuff.

I also need a new button for the switch for the power seats that makes it lean back and forward, anyone know where to get one of those?

what can i do to fix or make the black plastic thats like pealing off of the door panels?

also, i believe an amp blew out for my main speakers, I have an aftermarket tv indash cd player that i got wired in. one day all of the bigger speakers, the 5x7 and the 4x7 or whatever they are in the front and back just quit working, but the smaller speakers next to them still worked, i couldnt take it and just wired in new speakers direct to my radio for the back, but i was wondering if there was some kind of fuse for the amp or something for the front ones that i can check.

thanks for listenening to me

Did you check to see if the oil temp sensor is unplugged, by chance? If it isn't, the plug could be corroded, or the sensor could just be plain bad.

Also, My anti lock break light is constantly on in the information center. not sure what that is about, but the breaks are great.

ABS could be anything. Have the ABS codes pulled.

Look around LvC. If not, get a different color off eBay and paint it to match.

Best bet is a junk yard for the seat switches. Most people won't sell them separately from the seats.

The hell are you talking about?

Look in the owner's manual for fuses. But chances are the amp is toast.

I was saying that incase anyone needed to know to answer any questions, no reason to be a jerk.

...

but where is the oil temp plug located?

and i would of checked the owners manual for the fuses but i didnt get one with the car.

You'll soon get the memo. I am a jerk, but I'll try to help you with your problems while I'm being a jerk. So it's all good.

The oil temp sensor is located under the rear passenger tire... oh wait. That was the pedestrian I just ran over...

The Engine Oil Temperature and Low Engine Oil Level Sensor is located at the lower LH rear of engine.

Search LvC, I think there is a thread with a link to owners manuals.

This is the rubberized paint that is on most of the interior pieces, only thing to do is pull the part off, rub it down in brake fluid for a couple of days then it will peel right off, sand the part and repaint it to whatever you want. Im in the process of doing that same thing. Ill take some photos for you to show you what I mean.
