Power options and idiot lights!

Several things...

Passenger side power window does not go up or down. Neither switch has any effect...could it be a bad switch or is the actuator dead? I know those don't die too often..If I pull the switch out, how can I jumper it so see if it'll go down and back up again?

Sunroof needs a tiny push to go up and slide back. From there, it slides back just fine. Closing, however, requires a ton of help. Passenger side doesn't seem to be on track or the cable snapped or something.

A.A.S. switch I think is dead...if I remove the motors over each strut, can I just tighten the suspension to it's firmest setting and be okay? Bad idea?

Idiot Cluster...woo hoo, I love these things! Charge light is always on. If I pull the e-brake, it illuminates full blast...if I have it down, it's dim. E-brake down, coolant light is dim...e-brake up, coolant light goes off. No buzzer.

A/C compressor kicks on...water will drip from under the car after it's been on for a bit...but I get ZERO cold air...it's just hot...then again, the damn air always blows how no matter what. The P.O. said he re-soldered the entire logicon, so again, what gives?

Volt gauge works whenever it wants to...when it's on, I'm getting a great charge. There's a wire on my harness (Which has been cut and spliced, probably because it was a red-neck engine swap...the wire is a thick gray wire with a smaller black wire inside of it. It's been left disconnected...what's it for? Icemark, I bet you can answer that!

Front rotors...Autozone, the cheapest, Beck, 34 bucks! I'm seriously wanting cheap *** rotors...Pep Boys? Carquest? Online? Throw some ideas at me!




Yeah yeah...ton of questions, I know...but I thought it smarter to just make one big thread then ten billion smaller ones, aye?

O2 sensor?
The gray would be the shielding and the inner is the actual wire.

A few months ago I picked up front rotors at NAPA for $23 apiece.
There are round and fit and seem to work OK.

I think you should go with carquest for those front rotors. They're like $24.83 a piece or something. :-P

and if you want to eliminate the coolant light, ground the sensor to the body. Although most people wouldn't reccomend this. Just be on top of the coolant lever
