Hey yall, I did the clutch on my 2006 Cobalt SS 2.4L, and after I got everything buttoned up the power steering message came on the instrument cluster, as well as the speedometer and A/C stopped working as well as all the other things you can see in the message part on the instrument cluster. (Mpg, Coolant temp, trip A & B, and Miles left on tank.) It just shows dashes for all of those. Looking it up all I can find is TCM going out but seeing as my cars a manual it doesn't have a TCM. I did unplug the battery for about 10 minutes and the power steering worked for abut 5 minutes and then stopped again. I checked all the fuses and they were good, i'm not entirely sure what to check next so really any insite here would be helpful.

 

Check your grounds, you would've had to unbolt the one on the side of the transmission to get it out.

 

I did unbolt 2 grounds that were connected on the same spot on the bellhousing, which those 2 are connected I had to go back through and reconnect them. Is there another one twords the back of the engine on the transmission your talking about?

 

There are a total of 5: 2 on the engine, 2 on the transmission, and 1 on the body. The major factor is that these tend to corrode easily (I've had to deal with this recently), so make sure the eye connector itself is clean, and where it's bolted to is clean.
