The air bag sensor that is exposed to the most weather is behind the grill.2. You could possibly have a corroded connection at the common power line to the door lock solenoids. One odd thing to check is try a new fuse. It's rare, but I've seen instances where fuses that were stressed then heated near their opening point had become resistive, cutting voltage to the load.3. spray some graphite lubricant into the ignition lock; do not use WD-40 which flushes out the graphite lube then dries recreating the problem.  The in-key switch is stuck closed. Also if you can remove the ignition key in the run position, there is a standing recall for the 1st gens to replace it, Check with your chevy dealer for this.4. Does the speedometer return to zero with the power off? It should.  The gauge may need replacement.5. The turn signal assembly still uses a ratcheted bump-trigger setup like cars of old. This sounds like the assembly may have broken or if the column was dissasembled for any reason in the past, not reinserted properly.Aside from definitives, hopefully this helps move the repairs along.p.s. I have the first Equinox sold of the first year which we picked up used back in 2012. ALthough there have been a couiple of interesting little faults that have had to be corrected over the years, at over 210,000 mles "scarlet" as the kids named her has proven to be a very reliable SUV</blockquote>
