    Brake Controller Acting Up

    I have a ‘99 k3500. I had a brake controller installed a couple months ago. From day one pretty much it threw an OL code, without a trailer. It finally started doing it more and more until it finally started doing it with my trailer hooked up, which causes the brakes on the trailer to cut out. I...

    ABS Module Help

    My truck is a ‘99 Chevrolet k3500. I did some work the other night and left a rag under the hood, which ended up catching on fire on the exhaust manifold.

This is a pain as I’m only able to use the really short filters and...
