2005 buick century. You need to replace the turn signal switch in the steering column. For some reason the brake light wireing runs thru the switch. About 30.00 at Auto Zone. Replaced mine on a 1994 Regal. Brake lights work fine now. when I go to make a turn (right or left) it makes a medium low to high pitch humming. put some power steering fluid in....could it be more than just the fluid? My 2008 Buick Lacrosse also has faulty air bag indicators - both the symbol above steering wheel and the text on center of dash won't register adult passenger...problem was alleviated during dealer service but is now faulty again...indicators will When turning there is a squeaking noise coming from the steering wheel
key and steering wheel locked up . Could put they key in and out, but absolutely could not turn and unlock to drive. Had to have it towed home !! what causes this?
