Jenny, some one here will help you, I can guarantee, someone will try.I myself am not real familiar with you vehicle.I do know that to Expedite things, Whomever will need your CODES (Check Engine Light). So please take it to Autozone, Advance Auto, or another popular Auto Parts Store. They will CODE IT FOR FREE! Return with the codes (this same post), and any other info you can. DETAIL IS GOOD HERE. Since we cannot see it. Lost my Pap 4 days before Christmas, SORRY for your loss.---The Medic
