Maybe it's the transmission sensor computer ? I notice on these cars there is a lot of electronics that monitors and controls tons of different things. And one box under dash stands alone it is for tranny system to monitor the drive and speed to perform with the engine , so it maybe a bad sensor or tranny ECU..my guess

I am having a problem with my 1998 3000gt. WhenI use the left blinker it makes a buzzing noise and theblinker does not always work. It only happens when I use the left blinker? Is it a short?, or is ther something wrong with the switch/relay. It seems to be draining the battery. Help, please.Mark 2 Answers

I own a 92 3000gt SL and it likes to only start when it wants to. When it does start it drives completley normal but sometimes it will just sit there and turn over as she usually would. then 30 minutes to and hour and a half or so i try again and she starts up 90% of the time. Very sporatic and i was curious if anyone new what this could be? ignition module, crank angle sensor or cam angle sensor, or ignition coils or plugs and wires are my suspecrts so far? please help thank you 3 Answers
