I have an issue with my oil light.  It doesn't come on.  The bulb is good (works on the volts side), and the socket is good.  No voltage to the pins in the gauge.  No oil light.  Ideas?

My coolant/radiator fan suddenly runs all the time.  My first thought was that the sensor was unplugged, but it isn't.  Any other ideas?

It ended up being a switch on the compressor.

Return of water sound.

I have that sound like water through a faucet.  It's intermittent.  Turns on and off.  Sometimes, it happend when I hit a bump in the road; sometimes while on smooth surfaces.  A bit worried this may be the booster, since the noise seems to come from the front.  Dunno what else it could be?

The only other thing is the heater core.

Well, not losing coolant.  No puddle on the floor or the driveway.  No more cooling issues.

If you wanted to check the VSS signal, how would you do it?  What instrument would be used?

Check it for accuracy, or check it for any signal at all?

I have removed the VSS, clamped the drive into a drill and spun it to see if it generates a speed on the speedometer.  You can also probe it with a meter while spinning it with a drill to test the VSS alone.

No volts on the meter while driving.

Jack up one rear wheel, lit the car idle in gear, connect an oscilloscope to the VSS. You should get a pulse wave form.

You may be right.  Not sure how it would make that noise, though.
