Why does my Chevy Astro have electrical problems?

It is an off lease vehicle and wasn’t treated very well. When it rains for a period longer than 12 hours, weird things happen to the electrical system. Last time it was the door locks, locking and unlocking on it’s own. They would cycle 4 or five time a minute.

What should I do if my Astro battery is low?

The meter should read battery voltage. If the readings are less than battery voltage, or zero, repair the pink/white wire from the ignition switch. Measure the resistance from pin A15 and A16 to gnd. If the meter reads anything but 0-0.5 Ohm’s, repair the black wires at A15 and A16 to gnd. PS!

What is the problem with my Astro van?

Our 2000 Astro van is acting weird. All the indicator lights come on all at once intermittently. Sometimes you turn the blower on high and the lights go out.

Why is the fuel pump not working on my Astro?

The fuel pump, headlights, dome lights, and horn will not work on our 95 Astro. Everything else is getting power to our knowledge. We replaced the battery cable ends because they were corroded. We replaced a relay under the hood because it had black burned gooey stuff on it around the wire connector.
