I still haven't fixed the issue (I know it's been way too long). I haven't wanted to take it to a mechanic for fear of how much it would cost and I'd like to try to figure it out myself, but just haven't had much time for it.
Today though, I ran a test using an OBD-II scan tool because I...
I'm actually having problems with my parking brake right now. The pedal only goes until it's flush with the door frame and the right brake doesn't engage. The right side used to work fine, but since the mechanic I'd taken the truck to had it, it has not worked. I had him replace the left parking...
I have a 1998 GMC Sierra and just had one of the roll pins fall out of its hole in the brake shoe. The other side looked like it was about to fall out.
Does anyone know why this is happening?
My Dad and I were able to fix the lights. The problem wasn't with the ground itself, but with the wires going to the ground. They'd been cut at some point and whoever reconnected them only twisted the ends together and put a bit of tape over them. We soldered the wires together and put some...
It just occurred to me to double check that the cluster is indeed the wrong one, as the mechanic that I went to had said. It is the correct one. I got the code for the original cluster from a GM dealer and it matched the code on the current cluster.
My next guess for what is causing the issue...
My dad suggested looking at the ground wires, so I did. The ground wire that goes to the connection for a trailer was in 2 parts that someone had connected at some point by twisting the ends together. The wires have corroded and loosened since then. I'm going to try fixing it, but I don't have...
Sorry it's been so long, I've been a little busy. I couldn't tell if the tachometer was reading high because I don't know what it's supposed to be at and I don't have a tool to measure it.
I've been looking into finding a replacement for the cluster, but haven't found a place with mine in...
I just noticed a problem with my 1998 GMC Sierra. Say I'm signaling left while driving, all lights indicate that I'll be turning left, but then as soon as I apply the brake my front lights will still be signaling left but my rear signal will switch to the other side, making it appear that I'll...
