I find it utterly hard to believe that some people don't care about operating a vehicle that has a warning lights on in the dash... Especially lights with an exclaimation point!

yeah if you have the little light on, your connection is bad, remember we have electronic PS, that means no fluids and pumpss.........


one way to try n fix it, is by removin the airbox and the plate that holds it up...now on top of the radiator ( under the airbox ) is the PS connector, unplug and clean the 2 metal prongs that are in there, then put some anitseize cream on em and plug right in....

failure occurs cus sometimes moisture gets in there and corrodes the metal prongs, thus not giving you a good signal...

Or rotten brain. Why would you think that was normal, I hate lights on my dash that aren't supposed to be there.

sway bars have nothing to do with it... wont fix your problem at all. Take it to someone who knows what to do, they will tell you exactly what's wrong.
