    Reading O2 Heater circuit voltage

    Thanks for all the advice, and thanks to Road Trip for taking the time to write all that out. I can read the O2 sensor data live, but the heater circuit is separate, so I'm not sure if it will help. I'm going to have to wait a few weeks to dig deeply into this again, since I unfortunately have...

    Reading O2 Heater circuit voltage

    Thanks for the feedback guys. I bought a bosch sensor, and the previous owner had already replaced it once, so I don't think it's the sensor. I believe it's in the wiring, but I was just trying to go through the diagnostic steps one by one, and got stuck at this step. I could disable the rear o2...

    Reading O2 Heater circuit voltage

    97 tahoe, 5.7 vortec engine. This is the second o2 sensor, so I suppose I could turn it off. Is that an option on a 97? To reflash the pcm with hp tuners?

    Reading O2 Heater circuit voltage

    I'm trying to troubleshoot a recurring O2 sensor heater circuit code, P0161. I just replaced the sensor, but the problem persists. I have the Dash Command app with the extra GM PIDs, but unfortunately, it doesn't have the bank 2 sensor 2. It has B1S1, B1S3??, B2S1, but no B2S2. I also tried...

    CMP retard no reading

    So I have been getting some intermittent check engine lights on my 97 2 door k1500 tahoe, and I decided to check my CMP offset, but I can't get a reading. I followed the setup advice on my torque app, but still no reading. I'm getting a p1351, p0327, and p0161 right now. The truck runs fine, but...

    Steering wheel refinishing

    I dyed the airbag as well, although the color match was pretty close.

    Steering wheel refinishing

    So just wanted to give an update. I bought a used wheel from ebay for $100 that was better than mine, but I decided to re-dye it. First, I applied some superglue to fill in the damage, and sanded it smooth. Then, I coated it with some dark gray leather dye, I think it came out pretty nice. This...

    Steering wheel refinishing

    Has anyone tried to recover their steering wheel, and how did it come out? I see there are used wheels on ebay, but I'm thinking about attempting a recover myself. Mine is a 97 Tahoe K1500. I found this for later model vehicles, but I haven't been able to find one for my wheel: On amazon, ...

    Red converter

    Any idea what converter this is? I thought the transmission was original, but now I'm wondering if it is. 1997 2 door tahoe, k1500, 4l60e.

    Wire harness chafing

    Ok thanks. I taped up the damaged wire, and used some tie wraps to the A/C line to keep the harness from sitting on the EGR tube.

    Wire harness chafing

    Is this harness routed correctly, or am I missing some kind of clamp to hold it off of the EGR hose? I'm chasing some electrical issues, I'm pretty sure some of the wires are damaged here.

    Transmission Options

    Got it all back together, back on the road finally. So far so good. I did find out that there is an aftermarket upgrade for the output shaft retaining clip from Sonnax, so hopefully this doesn't happen again.
