Radio memory and clock issues, and Hazard issue

My 92ss erases its saved radio station and clock goes to 12:00 each time the car and radio is turned off.

Power issue to the radio?

One more thing. My hazards arent working anymore. Is it the hazard switch or the turnsignal/hazard unit?

Auto Seat Belts and cold weather

The cold weather lately has been causing my automatic seat belts to act more and more erratic.

The auto belts wont go back into position until the car warms up a bit. Is this the switch in the door itself? or something else?

I hate :evil: these belts!!!

Buzzing ignition (steering column area)?! WTF!

This is a wierd one.

Once in a while (every week) the car will make a buzz when trying to start the car. if i pull the key out, and then start it again, its fine.

it sounds like a joke hand buzzer things. after it starts up, its fine, like it never happened.

Any ideas?

:?

Did you change the gearset (#2)? There's a parts bulletin on this. The part number of the gearset supercedes to a new number, and if you change to the new gearset, you do not use the #35 bearing. yeah i saw the parts list, but didnt know if the washer bearing went along with the diff, or the went w...

Just finished watching your video - WOW that sounds bad, you weren't kidding!

I'm thinking either bearing or gears - specifically transfer gears. bearings on the center diff? or the center diff transfer gears...makes sense. shifting is good, actually better then when i picked it up. after tighting the knuckle and changing the gear oil. i have another tranny on the way .....a...

Is there any amount of play in the race? when i first installed it, it sounded ok.....i guess i can pull it out again and check..... tonight ill go under the car, with the car on jacks and see if i can find out if i can find the source of the sound......

whine seems to coming from underneath the car....im assuming the transmisson. i cant pinpoint the area right now. one observation: the sound increases in pitch as the the speed goes up. no change in sound or pitch if a gear changes. even at neutral coasting the sound is there. sounds like if the ca...
