[s-cars] 3 questions

Matt,

First one is most likely MFTS.  The thermostat usually just has a longer lag
to come up to approximately the same temp as usual.

I have had your second "problem" from time to time.  Once every few months
mine will ding at me.  I just check the oil pressure gauge and move on with
my life.  I am sure it is some type of sensor problem but it just isn't
worth chasing for me.

The third problem I also have and have done the exact same thing you have
with similar results.  If you figure anything out please share as the cruise
not working is getting irritating.

Hey all, coming out of lurk mode for a sec...

Few things going on that I just need a shove in the right direction to
get dialed on the car:

1- Temp gauge not always registering when the car is warm, stays stuck
all the way down on the left as if the car wasn't even on.  T-stat or
MFTS? I've misplaced my notes on troubleshooting this, but climate
control channel 51 (IIRC) is getting a value when this occurs.

2- Oil symbol flashing on autochek.  Car is full of oil; pressure
problem?  I'm assuming this operates off a sensor somewhere that I can
check?

3- cruise control - works intermittently.  Just replaced both switches
on the clutch and brake.  Any way to verify that the stalk switch is
making a good connection?  Wondering if I can take that apart.

Thanks for any help.
