I ALSO HAD THE DASH LIGHTS GO OUT ON ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, THIS WOULD BE THE SECOND TIME THIS PART HAD BEEN FIXED. A FEW MONTHS LATER THE HEATING COMPONENT WENT OUT.

REPLACED GENERATOR, 1 10464442 W-GEN REM PART NUMBER 10464442 THIS WAS DONE ON MAY 9, 2003. SERVICE MANAGER SAID IT WAS BECAUSE OF AN AIR PUMP FOR THE ANTI POLUTION SYSTEM ON THE AURORA WITH V6 ENGINES, THAT DRAWS ALOT OF AMPS AND THAT THE GENERATOR COULD NOT COMPENSATE FAST ENOUGH.*AK IN FEBRUARY OF THIS YEAR THE SAME THING HAPPENED. I AGAIN HAD THE GENERATOR REPLACED ETC..THE SERVICE MANAGER REPORTED TO ME THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WOULD NOT GO TOTALLY OUT...!!! AND THAT THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE SURE THAT IT DIDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN WAS TO DISCONNECT THE PUMP BUT THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD GO ON!! I OPTED TO NOT DO THIS.
