hi everyone, im new to this forum site so hope i dont sound like a novice or anything. Well i have a problem with my 1995 Aurora, well actually its my moms. I cant seem to turn off the AC. The button doesnt respond at all and also i jsut recently changed the oil and transmission filters and it keeps saying that i need to get them changed. ??? what is up with that? well anyways im on a mission to get this car in great shape for my mother before i leave to a bigger city. So any help any one can give would be awesome. Thanks in adcance.

The AC situation can be a number of things that you would probably be better off takeing it to a shop that specializes in air conditioning. As far as the oil and transmission lights, it's possiblya sensor. These cars have a lot of them. Have a mechanic take a look at it..

 

Did you reset your "information system"??


You can scroll through the engine section until you get to oil and transmission and reset!

 

I didnt know i could do that. Thats great! hey thanks for telling me that, ill see if i can try it. thanks again!

 

Well i set the info but resetting it is only for the fuel, distance traveled, and my average speed and stuff like that. i have been trying to avoid taking it to a mechanic but i guess thats my only option right now, [img]smileys/smiley11.gif[/img].Well thanks again for the info.

 

WRONG;;;;; EACH TIME YOU CHANGE THE OIL YOU HAVE TO RESET THE SCREEN FOR THE SYSTEM TO LET YOU KNOW WHEN TO CHANGE THE OIL AGAIN.. I DONT HAVE A OWNERS MANUEL FOR MY 1995 AURORA BUT I HAVE TO RESET EACH TIME THE OIL IS CHANGED, I AM SURE YOU WILL HAVE TO RESET FOR THE TRANSMISSION ALSO. GET YOUR OWNERS MANUEL OUT AND READ AGAIN.. DONT PAY A MECHANIC TO READ YOUR OWNERS MANUEL ..

 

hmm. Im really new to new cars, i mostly deal in carsl older than 76 and im not sure how to reset it. I have pushed the oil button (so that it says "oil life o%") and hit the reset button. Is there some trick to it? well ill mess around with it some more. Now i wish i had an owners manual on it, but just like interiorparts for my 74...they are hard to come by, lol.

 

I believe you have to hold the reset button in for 30 seconds or so and the oil should go back to 100%--I have done it but I can't remember how I did it. I will have to get the manual out and read it. I will get back to you.
