Windows & Gas gage
I have a 2000 SS and am having some problems with the power windows and my gas gage. My gas gage just doesnt work. usually it is stuck on full, but when i first start it, or put gas in it, it will read and when it is empty it will tell me. But between full and empty it is always crazy. Do you think it a bad gage, or a sensor in the tank? anyone know the cost?
With my windows.... This has happend before, they just stop working. no warning or anything. the lights on the door are even off. then afew days later they start to work. I know there is abreaker in thefuse panel, buti dont know how to get to it. Got any suggestions?

RE: Windows & Gas gage
My car is at work so I don't have access to my manual, but I would also venture to check if a connection between the door and and car interior. A wire might have become unplugged. Does the remote keyless entry work yet?
As for the gas gauge I would say it is the fuel level sending unit. This might have to be replaced with the whole fuel pump. Not to scare you, but mine went out in my 2000 Blazer and cost $500 for the OEM part and $280 to install. I choose not to fix it and I just reset the tripometer every time I fill up around 200 miles. - your Monte can swing to about 275 and probably much higher.
