without knowing a symptom, all i can say is
with a scan tool you can monitor the hz setting for the baro.
the maf produces baro info.
if the maf is bad, ussually dirty, the baro will read low
130-148 herz.
if its above 150 and your 1000 ft above sea level its probably ok.
if you have any vacuum leaks it will screw up this reading so make sure
you dont have any before using this method.
what is the symptom

The blower motor resistor may need replaced. It is located up under the dash on the passengers side. It may be extremely hard to see as you may not be able to get your head up under the dash far enough to see it. There will be a bundle of wires, about 4 or 5 wires that hook into a connector that is plugged into the the blower motor resistor. Two 1/4" screws hold the resistor in place. When you get it out, you will be able to see that it is burnt. It may be the coilspring type, or possibly the circuitboard type. Either way, you should be able to tell if it has burnt through. The replacements are about $25-$35 at your local parts store.

either in the back of the glove box or on the drivers side there will be a pop off pannel near the pedals or in the side of the foot well .your hand book should show you where the relay is located on the fuse board .

not usually hard to work out, the pulley with the grooves match up to the grooves in the belt and the smooth pulleys will run on the smooth side of the belt, you may need a wrench or socket with a long handle to pull the tensioner back to place the belt under it

the first thing to do is to reset the codes and if it returns then i would say theres a problem with the alternator, or the wiring, if it returns it sounds like the alternator is taking a while before it starts charging and the computer sees this, i would find out how long it sits at school then drive it as if going to school but go to a garage and let car sit as you would at school, then have them hook up charging tester and start car and see if there is a problem, i assume this happens every time you leave school,if so problem should be easy to find, hope this helps.

no it would be the disk on the way out.

Most modern tail lights are replaced by gripping the socket (inside the trunk) and twisting counter clockwise. The tail light socket and the bulb will then pull out toward the front of the car. The bulb is removed from the socket by pushing down against the spring and rotating it counterclockwise with relation to the socket (like opening a childproof pill bottle). Good luck.

Usually that is the BRAKE reservoir light saying that the fluid level is low. Open the hood and then cehek the brake fluid level on the brake master cylinder. It will be just forward of the engine firewall almost directly ahead of the steering wheel. The reservior has a high / low level indicator on the side. Use DOT 3 Brake fluid to refill the reservior. When this light comes on it is telling you that your brake shoes and pads are more than 50 percent worn.
