  1. What year, and have you checked for error codes? Enjoy FlyByNite
  2. This thread has links to pix and info. If you back up to the Buick forum, there is a subforum for Reattas. http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=1293 Enjoy FlyByNite
  3. Go HERE. it's probably bellcranks, Barney has developed a new improved replacement. Enjoy FlyByNite
  4. Sounds like crud in the connectors. Break the wiring connections under the seat clean them up, reconnect. It will take less than half an hour and cost zilch. Enjoy FlyByNite
  5. Try swapping the relays around, you may have a bad one. An $8 relay is much better than a new ( rebuilt ) pump.
  6. Cleaning the IAC will fix the idle a lot of times. Enjoy FlyByNite
  7. I guess you have never performed the brake test at reatta.net. http://www.reatta.net/brakes/brakes_troubleshooting.html Enjoy FlyByNite
  8. Did you increase the search range to something more than 1 week? I would imagine just about any auto upholstery shop could come up with a real close match. Other than that, a fabric store would be a good place to check. Enjoy FlyByNite
  9. THIS is probably what you are looking for. Enjoy FlyByNite
  10. I would try cleaning the IAC, did wonders on my Reatta. Enjoy FlyByNite
  11. Go here http://www.reatta.net/brakes.html do the brake test and post results back here for diagnosis. could be a relay or accumulator. Enjoy FlyByNite
  12. Go here http://www.reatta.net/ click brakes in the left frame and do the break test. Report results back here for expert diagnosis. Good possibility for the light is a bad relay. All this will be explained at the above site. Enjoy FlyByNite
  13. Go here http://www.reatta.net/ click brakes and do the test. Enjoy FlyByNite
  14. With minimal talent you can do it yourself, look HERE . Enjoy FlyByNite
  15. Go here http://www.reatta.net/brakes.html , do the break test. Enjoy FlyByNite
  16. Sorry, it's not called a plastic dash top. It's called the Upper Trim Pad, see attachment. Here is the link for the how to FAQ. http://www.reatta.net/faq/console.html Though unless your fingers are pencil thin and ten inches long I disagree with doing it with only the defroster grill removed. I had to also remove the Upper Trim Pad to do mine Enjoy FlyByNite
  17. Did you remove the plastic top of the dash? Be carefull it cracks easily. I'm sure if you use the search function you'll find instructions. You aren't the first one to replace one. Enjoy FlyByNite

  19. I might have some good advice for the ECC ( Electronic Climate Control ). Mine was acting like it was possessed. The cure was to take it out of the dash, exercize the connections ( pull them apart and use a little tuner cleaner and an old toothbrush on them ). This will remove 13 years of built up crud off the connections. Made mine work like a champ, and it's very inexpensive.

  21. What you need to do is go to www.reatta.net and download the Factory Service Manual. All error codes are listed with diagnostic tips and hints. If you are on a slow dialup connection, pm me and I'll get them to you on cd.

    I tried

    www.reatta.net in particular http://www.reatta.net/diagnostics/diag_entry.html
  23. I've done it in my 90 with a portable cd/mp3 player. Works well. Well over a hundred mp3s per disk, great for long drives.
  24. I've never felt the need to play with mine, but I'm told a dirty IAC can screw with your milage.
