Make sure the thermostat was the right temp range. Had same problem on ford truck and parts store gave me a 160 when it should have been a 180 degree thermostat.

Do you have power in and out of the dimmer switch ?

possibly bad motor or bad switch check and replace.

Try to replace your keyless remote batteries. To reprogram car computer remove negative battery post first and wait 20 min and then reconnect neg post last.

you have a bad power steering pressure sensor, seending you some info on it,The switch's function is to signal the PCM when the power-steering system exceeds its normal operating hydraulic pressure, like when you cut the steering wheel all the way to one side and hear that hissing sound from the pump. The PCM then raises the idle speed and/or disengages the air-conditioning compressor to prevent the engine from stalling.

put your key in the ignition switch leave it in the off position, press the remote start button, if it starts and you did not install a transponder bypass modual in it you will require one, if you need one let me know as I stock this item

Hello

The engine and the automatic transmission (transmission control is only for automatics, engine is still computer controlled no matter the transmission type) in this vehicle are computer controlled and in most cases when a fault occurs a fault code is stored in the memory of the computer control module. There are exception to this, such as the Mass Airflow Meter and fuel pressure problems. What must be done is to have all the basic testing done such as a scan of the system for fault codes as well as a check with a live data scanner tool for engine functions that are not within range of normal, a trained technician is required to know what is correct and what isn't, then based on careful diagnostics done from a factory repair manual the correct part is replaced or the wiring repaired or the computer replaced (known as the PCM), which is very rarely the problem. Other basic checks must be done as well such as mechanical problems with the engine as well as engine state of tune and mileage on the engine. The transmission can have mechanical issues as well such as no gear engagement at all or a failed pump or other pressure related problems.
