2005 Cavalier Base/Sport Overheating and Electrical Question
 

Hi I own 2005 Chevy Cavalier Base/Sport
I really love my car it wasn't any problem with that till this winter. when it's idle it's going overheat. when I took it to shop they said everything is fine we don't see any problem, anyway I spend 500 and they changed Thermostat and Flushed Radiator, it's still going overheat but only when A/C is off, or if I put fan speed to 1-2 on 3-4 it's working perfect. any suggestion ?

and one more electrical question.
I bought LED strips, and would like to put it between headlamps and bumper, but I'm not sure how I should connect it? I would like to do something so when I'll turn my headlights on, Led come on too.
P.S sorry for my bad English ) I'm just 11 months in USA so it's not fluent )
Thank you very much )

I'm so sorry I forget to put link what I bought Here We Go LED Lights so I guess it's comes with resistors ? I'm newbie .. but I really would like to do that with my car, it will look perfect!

Please somebody help me... I guess it's not hard to do.. but I don't know how.. so please help meee :-(:(:(:(:(

Welcome to the forum.:) I'm not a fan of "LED strips" and thus I won't comment on that. Now, you spent $500 on a thermostat replacement and coolant flush and fill service? I don't know how it is in Cincinnati but we don't tolerate that kind of robbery around here. It sounds like your problem is with the cooling fan not running when it should. You need a Tech 2 scan tool to diagnose problems like that. Consider taking it in to a dealership service department.

ok then How can I Install fog lights? and Switch?
and anybody know where can I buy better switches for A/C, Fan, and etc.. cuz stock one is look kinda ugly.

I would agree with EinSt on taking the vehicle into a dealer for proper diagnosis. I hope that helps with your coolant issues. Unfortunately I can't comment on your aftermarket additions. I hope you get it all working.
