Question
My cavalier rides totally fine about half the the time, but outta the blue my car's gages start going all wacky then go down to zero and all my dash lights come on. When my car is like this and i try starting it, i cant get it out of park unless i leave it in nuetral till i start the car. I'm guessing the theft system is responsible, but there's no pattern as to when this occurs, any idea what might be causing this problem ?

Answer
Robert;
Hea- Well the only thing that I can recommend is to go to a trouble shooting shop and have then place the  OBDII meter on it and see what pops up on it..Or you can find the name, make,model,and model no#, etc, and ask them to please send you a set of instillation instructions, as this would help you out a lot.  I can see no reason why they would not do it, but sweeten them up on how pleased you are with the product and you need the instructions as you had crossed up the wires doing work on it and you wish to put it back the same awesome way.As you are so happy with there product- sound deep enough for you ..
