    More HVAC trouble- Control panel?

    Hi folks, Well, it looks like my HVAC trouble is not all resolved. I have replaced the compressor, condenser, receiver/dryer, both hoses and all the pressure switches. The system was working great for a couple of months. About a month ago I started noticing a hissing for a couple of seconds...

    Very little HVAC airflow - SOMETIMES

    Hi folks, 1997 K2500 Extended cab Silverado For a long time now I have noticed unreliable operation of the mode selection (Defrost, Floor, Vents). Sometimes after a while I'll get the mode I want - usually the defrost/floor combo. Where it really showed the problem was trying to get good flow...

    Intermittent Main Brake Lights - High Mount Always OK

    Hi folks, Maybe 8 years ago my main brake lights went intermittent, then magically were fine until last year. Back then the truck (1997 K2500) only got used once a month or less. I figured steadier use cleared up the problem. Back then I was told it was probably the multi-function switch -...

    Flowmaster cat back?

    Hi folks, It's hard to believe I can't see this system talked about here https://www.holley.com/products/exhaust/exhaust_systems/flowmaster/american_thunder/parts/17224 . I was sort of set on using a Gibson CFT muffler, but it seems I'd have to jump through some hoops to get the same dual...

    1997 K2500 Which Blower Motor?

    Hi folks, Yeah, me again. My blower motor is starting to make some noise sometimes - immediately after start-up when left on Low and a couple of days ago it got quite loud after hitting a harsh bump. After start-up the noise goes away after a few seconds, but after the bump induced one I turned...

    How to find radio lock code 1997 Silverado?

    Hi folks, I have a new Kenwood stereo to put in complete with the proper harness. This way I can simply pop the original radio back in if I ever want or need to (it works fine, just wanted to upgrade). Installing the new Kenwood should take less than an hour - almost plug and play with the...

    High Mount Brake Light - Where does the water go?

    Hi folks, I am sure my 1997 K2500 Extended Cab high mount brake light seal is leaking. It must be since it is 24 years old and looks pretty cracked up. Add to that the white water line stains in the headliner from the back to halfway along over the driver's door and around the passenger side...

    High Mount Brake Light Leaking to Headliner?

    Hi folks, There is a leak onto my headliner on the driver's side (left side) of my 1997 K2500 Silverado. It leaves a "salt" line from above the rear side window (extended cab) forward to about halfway along over the door. It is most noticeable in winter after snow sits on the roof for a while -...

    Is there a simple ECU re-map for a stock 1997 7.4L/454?

    My stock 1997 K2500 had the engine overhauled about 50,000 kms ago. The previous owner had all his work done by the selling dealer he bought it from new. That dealer sent the engine out for overhaul. It runs great and does not leak. From what I have read the dealer must have replaced the...

    1997 K2500 ABS activates on first stop after start-up

    Hi folks, Well, I am almost there in getting her back to almost like new daily driver condition. Recently I noticed that instead of just getting the ABS test cycle practically before I get out of the driveway (or maybe in addition to that) I am getting a definite ABS activation when almost...

    1997 K2500 Front Camber Spec?

    Hi folks, I'm a new guy here. I introduced myself over where introductions are done. Yes, my first post apart from the intro is asking a question. Sorry 'bout that. The background is years of a slight pull/drift to the right. In the past two years she's had a new right upper ball joint, new...

    New guy in Nova Scotia

    Hi folks, Well, as said, I'm a new guy here. I have been and am a member on a few other sites related to my truck, too, but I don't really seem to fit most. I'm don't really fit into the onroad/offroad/lifted/power mods/etc categories. Don't get me wrong, I AM a big fan of power, speed and...
