    Keyless entry not working

    I just recently bought this suburban and I’ve been trying to get everything in working order. The door lock switches were worn on both sides so I just figured I would go ahead and get new ones. Now is the door lock control module also the keyless entry receiver or are those 2 different things? I...

    Keyless entry not working

    The cargo lock switch only operates the driver door lock and it locks then immediately unlocks it. When I replaced the door lock relay everything worked for a short time and something has caused it to stop again. I’ve replaced both door lock switches on the driver and passenger side. Even the...

    Keyless entry not working

    I’ve tried it with the doors opened and closed with no dice. I replaced the door lock relay and everything started working properly for a day and now it’s doing the weird only lock then unlock the driver door thing. I checked the plug to the door lock relay and it had 13 volts to the plug. I...

    Keyless entry not working

    I recently bought a 99 K1500 suburban and I’ve been trying to work out some of the door lock issues. I’ve replaced most of the door lock actuators along with the door lock switches on driver and passenger side. Everything locks and unlocks fine when using the driver side but when I try the...

    Range selector

    Have a 88 K1500 that had a busted transfer case. It had a manual 241C case and I swapped it out for another 241C but didn’t realize until I had it in that the range selector was a 3 pin instead of a 2 pin like what was originally in the truck. Could I simply swap the vacuum sensor out for one...

    Engine Harness

    Ended up just finding a another 88 4wd long bed that had a motor and trans. The harness in the parts truck was somewhat complete so we swapped everything over the the white single cab. After several weeks of working on the truck when I get home from work we got it running and driving. Still have...

    Bed Bolt Issues

    Was attempting to take the bed off my 88 RCSB yesterday and one of the bolts just spins. I’m assuming the nut that is welded to the rib that runs underneath the bed and sit on the frame has broke loosed. Has anyone ran into the problem before and how did you fix it? I was thinking about cutting...

    88 k1500

    Figured I would share this adventure me and my dad have almost finished. Got a sweet deal on this 88 k1500 RCSB. Of course all good deals come with a drawback. The truck needed a motor, transmission and t-case, and a new engine harness (the old one had ends cut off and was cut in half). We found...

    Engine Harness

    Yea it’s a nightmare for sure. They cut the wires to the headlights also. Really sucks because the body is straight and the interior would clean up really nice. It’s amazing how quick a ******* with a pair of cutters can destroy a wiring harness

    Engine Harness

    Thanks for all the replies. The original plan was to just splice all the wires back together until I noticed that the plug was melted going into the fire wall. My local LKQ has a decent selection of these trucks but most are picked through by the time I get down there. Looks like finding a donor...

    Engine Harness

    My dad just recently bought this 88 k1500 single cab and it needs some work. The guy who had it before really screwed the wiring up. It’s a 350 tbi and the main loom coming out of the firewall on the driver side is cut in half. Also the plug for the loom where it attaches to the firewall is...

    88-94 Radio Issues

    Unitedradio.com is who I was told refurbishes them. I gave them a call a few weeks ago to get an estimate on a repair but they needed part numbers and to know what was exactly wrong. You can send them whatever you’re needing fixed and I’m sure they would fix it. I have 5 cassette players and...

    Wiring Issues

    Yea I’ve been trying to talk him into doing an LS swap but we’ve got an old tbi laying around he wants to throw in it.

    Wiring Issues

    My dad recently bought a 88 rcsb. Previous owner removed the motor and trans but did a **** job in my opinion. Majority of the harness appears to be intact but one of the main wire looms got cut. Not sure exactly what the wires that got cut go to because the wire colors are different than the...

    Abs brake bleed

    My brakes have been awful for about 2 years now. I changed the booster, master cylinder and even swapped the abs module to a spare that I had. I don’t know a lot about this abs stuff (besides it’s junk) but I believe I have a hydraulic unit because there is only 2 lines that come out of the MC...

    New cup holders!!!

    Has anyone found a solution to fixing the cup holder tabs for a 88-94 cup holder? Mine are completely worn out and I’m tired of having my drinks slide back and forth on the rails.

    Wheel bearing maintenance; repack or replace?

    I agree with the don’t fix it unless it’s broke motto, and when I do have to fix something I only use American made. The reason being that I’m debating on wheel bearings is because the drive side makes a slight grinding noise when I’m off the gas turning to the left. Sometimes it makes the noise...

    Wheel bearing maintenance; repack or replace?

    I’ve got a 94 single cab k1500 that I’m wanting to replace front wheel bearings on. I’ve only ever replaced wheel bearings on 2wd vehicles. The trucks got 230k miles. I got it when it had 200k miles and haven’t changed them since. Would it be easier to just go ahead and buy brand new hubs with...

    Steering Wheel Upside Down

    Does anyone know what the actual name of the top piece that connects the shaft to the steering column? I've recently replaced the rag joint and noticed that I might ought to replace the piece at the top of the shaft and the boot that protects it also. Thanks in advance and bonus points if you...

    Tape Deck Issues

    I'm sure I'm not the only one who has or had this issue but the Cassette player in my truck doesn't work. When I bought the truck several years ago I tried it just to see if it worked and it did. The radio is all stock and works like a dream. I found a bunch of my dads old tapes the other day...

    88 K1500

    Went and picked up this 88 K1500 for my little brother earlier this week. It definitely needs some work but the body is straight and its in good condition for its age. Now its time to help him fix it up and maybe someday soon it might look as good as mine.

    88-94 Dash Replacement

    Just saw where LMC Truck now offers a dash panel assembly. Not sure how new they are but I have been searching for solutions to fix my cracked dash because it is the only thing that makes my interior look old. I'm considering getting it but wanted to see if anyone else has installed them before...

    No Fuel or Spark

    Both of the distributors that I tried looked fine when I checked them. I didn't notice any scarred teeth and when I spun the gear on the bottom the rotary buttons spun so I'm assuming they are good.

    No Fuel or Spark

    Sorry for the late reply, work and school are killing me this week and trying to fix my truck on top of all of that doesn't help. Thanks for the suggestions but here is my new situation. The distributor in the truck spins when I crank it so that rules out some of the suggestions. My truck now...

    No Fuel or Spark

    I was skeptical that my pickup coil might be bad so I tried testing it by taking an old distributor that I had and I connected the 2 plugs to the control module that was bolted to it and unhooked the ignition coil wire from the coil and the distributor that was already in the motor. I then...
