I don't think the leaking power steering line runs anywhere near the airbag sensors, last I knew there was one in the nose area, the one in the cockpit I thought was inside.

Mine just gave out - no leaking to warn me.

I had the same problem , they update the body control module and it goes away. Also i would get a seat belt light even tho my seat belt was buckeled

so i just got home and i got in my car when i was leaving my friends house and the service air bag light came on

and my seat belt was on.... and it told me it wasnt

so i quickly remembered this thread

Sint3K..... the body control module update takes care of both those issues??

mind you it was 30 degrees outside... and i remote started the car

Sint3k

Yep it also seemed to happen more when i remote started my car as well but did it completly randomly. One time it didn't happen for weeks then started doing it again.

Petey.Mcss

damn.... its little crap like that... it just annoys me that GM didnt at least check everything right when they made the 06's

do the 07's have these issues?

Sint3k

I've had almost every problem mentioned on here except for trans problems or steering PUMP. But EVERYthing else i've had. From wheel hubs to the onstar to the BCM , ISS , motor in seat , battery , and alot more i can't remember off the top of my head

When my battery was going kaput, i would get "service airbag system" on occasion as well. When the voltage drops a certain amount, as you can imagine, those systems cry for help.

Petey.Mcss

i agree with you because my battery went out a couple months ago and the dealer fixed that... before that happened the air bag light came on all the time


and now... new battery.. same thing.. maybe somethins up with my electrical?

Sint3k

My battery went bad way after the airbag crap happened. But the day i got the car i installed a optima battery in the trunk and wired them together so if something eletrical effected my oem battery common sense says it would effect my optima battery and its still working fine. Only reason i noticed my oem battery wasnt charging was when 2000 watts of subwoofer bangs and the lights where dimming.

Petey.Mcss

ah crap

i guess my new battery is gettin fried then

because its doing that again too... lights are dimming a lot with the bass

Sint3k

I'm going to just replace it with a optima , Anyone running over 1500 watts needs 2 batterys at least i also have a voltage meter so when they start dropping i stop listening so the car can charge the batterys. But theres times where i don't listen to the radio so its enough to charge them for when i am listening

Petey.Mcss

yeah thats true...

i still dont wanna have to deal with 2 batteries..

i think ima just get a capacitor

Sint3k

I think caps are a big waste of money , not trying to be rude. Specially if you listen to rap its a big waste. If you already have a amp in your trunk then the wiring is already done for you :-\. Just depends on how many problems you have really , in my old monte carlo i had alot of bad experiences with batterys dieing so i bought a 2nd battery from day 1 i got my monte.

Petey.Mcss

yeah thats true



ill look into the second battery thing

where did u put it at in ur trunk?

Sint3k

Sence my 15's take up the whole front of my trunk i have about 16 x 24 inch's of space in the back so its back there

Petey.Mcss

ohhhh ok.... cool cool.... im gunna see what i can do

And I though my two 10"s hit hard....

Had time to get to the dealer today ...

EVAP canister is on the fuel tank, not the typical round canister. $271 worth ... a few hoses connected to it.

I'll wait till the weather hits 50 this weekend to get underneath the car - too much friggin snow and ice in my driveway to work on the thing.

Sint3k

I was thinking with the space being taken up in my trunk if my power trunk poper stops working theres no way to get the trunk open and with 2 15's banging the whole car kinda worrys me that it will do something to the popper and no way to get to it threw the trunk :X
