1999 EB Expo with many scatch and dent problems

paparube · 02-10-2008, 01:38 PM

I just bought a 99 EB Expo and it has some of issues that I would like to get fixed ASAP.
1. The compass is stuck on "E" and I am unable to reset it via the compass module behind the mirror.
2. The Door locks take several presses of the unlock button in order to unlock completely (or lock).
3. The passenger side signal mirror has lost its reflective backing.
4. The rear wiper doesn't work but the rear washer fluid works just fine.
5. The keyless entry pad on the drivers side of the vehicle does not work and I was not given any type of code to make it work.
Any help or advice on any of these issues would be most helpful. I am a do-it-yourselfer whern I can be.

Well I'll see if i can help
Q1. The compass is stuck on "E" and I am unable to reset it via the compass module behind the mirror.
A1. The Compass should have some and button on it to change from F to C hold that till it says cal. or calibrate, then drive around in small circles till it beeps or say its calibrated. it may take a couple times. Make sure you drive at like 3-8 is the usual speed.

Q2. The Door locks take several presses of the unlock button in order to unlock completely (or lock).
A.2 You can buy a new switch at almost any parts store

For 3 and 4, somebody here should be able to help you with that

for 5. You can go to the dealer with your vin and they should be able to give you your master key code for the out side key pad. it may cost a little but its nice when you have it.
