Hi, the most likely thing that has happened is the back lights in the screen have burnt out and need to be replaced or just purchase a new radio. Good luck
HI, make sure you look closely behind the bumper, the mounting brackets and reinforcement are designed to absorb the impact so a lot of time they are damaged also. Look where the headlight assembly mounts and the radiator mounts, this is called the core support. It is made out of fiberglass and is very acceptable to cracking and breaking. If it is cracked there are a lot of mechanical parts attached to it and quite the job to replace. Good luck
freon which is known as R-12 in the industry was replaced with R-134A which is the refrigerant used in your car.. There is a user available replacement which comes in a one pound can that can be installed, however you must have the system evacuated by a garage in order to install it..
first if you are changing the bulb only and it is a HALOGEN
there is a round acess hole in the inner fender remove it and change the bulb
if you have HID lights or are changing the head light assembly then you have to remove the front bumper facia
hope this helps
hope you have HALOGEN lights
GM uses a curcuit board design between the plug and the lamp(part of the rear light asm.) they stink, they corrode over time and fail. Not economical to repair, better to replace. consider an OEM replacement. The aftermarket ones don't last.
on each headlamp assembly, there will be either one or two plastic nuts that you can turn.
If you only have one nut on each, that will adjust the vertical aim of the headlights.
If you have two nuts on each, one will adjust the vertical and the other will adjust the horizontal.
Park
your car on a level ground 30 feet from a wall and measure the height
from the ground to the bulb and mark on a wall (do this for highs beams
and low beams if the bulbs are separate, if highs and lows are the same
bulb, only do it for the lows)
If the headlights read VOR, then
aim the brightest part or cutoff part just below the mark on the wall.
If it says VOL or nothing, aim them 2 inches below the mark on the wall.
Yes a harmanic balancer from tha corolla is the same thing. I had to do the same thing with my 95 geo. It works out to be a lot cheaper buying for a toyota than a geo.
there will be some screws and plastic clips around the trunk and rear quarters remove these. look at yours should still see the screws to give you an idea
headlights are changed from within the engine compartment... if it's the side the battery is on.. it will likely need to be removed first... do not touch the bulbs with your fingers as that shortens their life.
