My 1989 Reatta keyless enty module does not work. I assume the panel behind passenger seat can be removed by removing the 3 screws next to the trunk pass through hole and then prying the panel off. Please advise if this is the proper way to get to this module. Is the module fastened by a retention wire clip or is it bolted down. Any suggestions as to where to purchase the module at a reasonable price. My dealers price is $425 and they are not sure they can locate one. Thank you

My 1989 Reatta windshield has many rock chips in it. I found and purchased a good windshield taken out on another Reatta. The windshield molding encapsulation was damaged upon removal by a glass company. The glass company in my home town is reluctant to install it because some of the encapsulation is missing. Can I remove all of the encapsulation and then have a glass company put a new molding around it upon installation, or would I be better off trying to find another glass company who will try to add to/repair the original encapsulation? Thank you for any advice.

The overdrive seems to go in and out too frequently. What activates it? Is it a vacuum or electrical activation? Is the activation unit inside or outside of the transmission? This problem happens at various speeds from 35 mph plus. When the transmission is cold the problem seems to be worse. Any suggestions as to the problem and a fix would be appreciated.

Most likely your door lock acuator is not strong enough to make it unlock. I just installed a new one on my 1989 Reatta and also lubed all door lock mech. I could get to. The units sold on Ebay come from China and they do not work in cold weather.

Heater does not always put out heat when the motor is warm. I turn the heat control to maximum heat, but very little if any heat comes out the vent. Sometimes I do get heat and its seems to work ok.
