    Backup lights

    Have you tried swapping the driver and passenger boards to determine if it is a board or connector problem? The connector is fairly robust and the boards are known to flake out. If you have a multimeter handy, you can check the board for continuity and resistance based on the diagram below...

    With my 99 Suburban, I daily a OBDLink MX+ and real time monitor with the the android app 'Torque'. it gets me Intake Air, and Coolant Temps from normal PIDS and Trans temp from extended GM specific PIDS. I only had to pay for the app and got the extended PIDS for free. When pulling codes, it...

    Newbie with a quick PassLock question

    If the ECU has Passlock tuned out and the EVO bypass was installed, is there any reason to keep the Passlock/EVO module installed in the dash. I'm thinking of using that mount point for a small 12V to 24V inverter.

    Newbie with a quick PassLock question

    1999 5.7 Burb here as well, I had a local tuner shop get rid of the ECM Passlock check with HP Tuners for similar reasons. The tune cost me $225 USD. but said any future tune would be $50 as they would have my VIN in their HP Tuner system. Good thing to as I had to replace the ignition...

    Looking on how to Wire up sequential “turn signal” Tow Mirrors and make them function?

    If you only want turn and not stop/park, the mirror signals lamps should tap into the front left and right turn signals (LT BLU and DK BLU), and not the left and right rear signals (YEL and DK GRN), as the rears' are tied into the brake signal in the Multifunction Switch. For the 96+, late...

    Looking for Lug torque specs for 92-99 suburban 2wd ( larger wheels 20s )

    99 suburban's torque spec for the tire lugs is a bit annoying to state. The 1999 service manual, Pg. 3-111, lists a torque of 125 [ft-lb] (175 [N-m]). However the 1999 Suburban owners manual, Pg. 6-67, lists a torque of 140 [lb-ft] (190 [N-m]) As there are known to be errors in the service...

    Door Hinge Pins & Bushings, Cunningham Machine vs. New Greaseable GM?

    Dorman and LMC both had barn door hinge pins and bushings. I picked up a set of barn door pins and bushings from LMC and was not impressed with the bushings. 1) they don't come as a pair. 2) they are the split kind rather than full flange. The pins are fine, but not C-Clip at the...

    The Stupid Lift Questions Thread

    1999 K1500 Suburban, 5.7L, with GF T-bars and 4/1 Leaves. Stupid questions: 1. If I swap from 4/1 (2200 lb) to 5/1 (2900 lb) leaves, what is the expected unladen lift as measured from the rear axle? 2. Can I level that much lift by cranking the GF (5826 Max Torque) T-Bar keys or would it be...

    Window doesnt roll up or down

    Does it work intermittently or not at all? For some reason on my 1999 K1500 Suburban the front driver window doesn't work if it is rolled all the way up and it is hot. If it is roll it down even the smallest amount or I let it cool off, it works again, no idea why.

    Replacement '96+ Ashtray Mounting Clips

    Pulled the knee board out of my Suburban to get at the one remaining good clip and modeled it up. Attached are links to the OEM clip as well as a modified version that can be printed flat such that layers aren't in the plane of most stress. Both can be printed via FDM with a .25mm nozzle, but...

    Tips on installing a Brake Controller in a OBS (1999 Suburban)

    Excellent write-up. It will help me when i do it for my own 99 Burb. Did you use a standard .25 in female blade terminal to connect to the NAT's F6 pin on the Convenience Center or did you use some other connector? Which controller did you go with and where did you install it?

    Replacement '96+ Ashtray Mounting Clips

    I will try fdm with a .25 nozzle. If that doesn't work I have a friend with an Resin printer print it for me.
