Saturn SW1 Parts

The Saturn SW1 is a reliable and competent compact car produced by the Saturn Corporation, a subsidiary of General Motors. It was in production from 1990 to 2002 and was built at the Spring Hill Manufacturing facility in Tennessee, USA. Initially introduced as a trim level of the SL station wagon, the first-generation Saturn SW1 (1993-1995) retained the design of its 5-door predecessor but altered the bodywork behind the C-pillar and the roof. It is characterized by its wheelbase of 102.4 inches and weighs between 2,397.3-2,499.4 lbs. The second-generation Saturn SW1 (1996-1999) underwent a complete redesign in terms of exterior looks while maintaining most of its interior accessory parts. The mechanical changes were minor, but the engine received significant improvements, including revised pistons, new connecting rods, and refined crankshaft counterweights. The addition of a Twin Cam cylinder head further bolstered the SW1's standing in the industry. The final generation of the Saturn SW1 (1999-2002) showcased a redesigned body panel from the belt-line down, a completely revamped dashboard, center console, and steering wheel. It also added a digital trip odometer in 2000 and offered optional side curtain airbags. Throughout its production years, the Saturn SW1 became increasingly popular due to its combination of solid classic parts, reliable driving performance, and continuous upgrades.

The Saturn SW1 models from 1997 to 1999 present several mechanical issues. The 99 SC1 model's windshield wiper and washer systems continuously dispense fluid unless set to "off" or "intermittent." Initial solutions focused on fuses, relays, and the multi-function switch, but they didn't resolve the problem. Further analysis identified potential wiring problems or a malfunctioning internal relay within the wiper motor logic, indicating a potential need to replace the wiper motor. The 1998 model's rear wiper and washer ceased to function, with subsequent investigations pinpointing the wiper switch on the steering column and detached wires from their solder points as potential causes. For the 1998 Saturn SW2, a rear wiper motor failure was due to a disconnected wire in the steering column's multi-function stick, with the remedy being soldering the wire back in place. In the 1997 SW1 model, the rear washer malfunction posed challenges in identifying the appropriate fuse location and accessing the washer pump's wiring. Recommendations centered on checking the wiring connections, particularly a green wire behind the multi-function switch, and possibly resoldering or replacing the entire assembly. An additional issue with the 1998 Saturn SW1 involved power loss after 7 to 10 miles, accompanied by flickering dashboard lights. Despite various attempts to solve it, the consistent problem led to concerns regarding a clogged fuel filter or inconsistent fuel pump operation.
