It could be that the engine is idled to low.
A2: There is an idle solenoid to boost idle speed when A/C on. It may be defective or there is a wiring problem; switch, fuse, etc. It may also not be adjusted right. Look at the far side of it (Not the throttle side) ; it should have a wrench adjustment. Give it 1/2 turn clockwise and see.
If your engine fan turns on when the engine is not running it is because the engine's coolant temperature is above the factory preset level at which the computer turns on the fan or fans to cool the engine back to normal.
you probally have a ground wire off
For most vehicles, the fuel pump only turns on briefly when you try to start the engine. If the engine doesn't start, the pump turns off. You need to test the fuel pressure with the engine running.
Try applying parking brake
automatic....engine warm and running while in park, standard, engine off. But this is covered in your owner's manual
If you are parked with the motor running, engage the parking/emergency brake. Turn the ignition off and restart the engine. The daytime running lights should not be on.
Fuel pump is my guess.
I have a 2003 Monte Carlo SS and the only time it turned off on me was when my radiator had broken and the car was over heating. Its turns off so it wont explode.
If the Car is taking on the smell of gasonline while on and running it usually means that the car has an exhaust leak. more than likely around the headers. I would have the exhaust system checked out.
If you mean the headlight switch, pulling it out once turns on the dash lights and turns off the daytime running lights, pulling it again turns on the headlights.
If you want to turn off the running lights off try to engage the emergency brakes. I have a 2000 Montana and that works.
If it will shift when the engine is off, but not while it is running your clutch is not working
