Does it have interval wipers or just off - low - high? These years have a control box under the column that will do all kinds of goofy things. Other GM vehicles have the same issues but the "pulse module" is in various places. Look on the bottom of the steering column just below the gauge...

Like Mr. Appel said. The most important question is, do YOU trust them with your life and the lives of any passengers ?

Looks great in Photoshop. [thumbzup] Anything is possible with enough measuring, cutting, and welding. If this is the route you chose I would suggest going at like a school bus build. Strip everything rear of the firewall and just drop the bus body on. Too much structure would need to be cut...

Very nice seats. On my punch list.

Pleeeeeeeze don't put chrome wheels on it. :grin:

Hope you have a safe trip.

Any of the "SS" s only show voltage to the computer when whatever they are pointed at is turning (magnetic Hall effect sensor). If you mean the input voltage going to other sensors, I believe it's 5vDC, kinda a standard reference voltage for sensors. The output wave sign is what the computer...

erasedhammer, wave sizes, shapes, and voltages are around step 372. You haven't confirmed step 1. To answer as asked though, the voltage and frequency will vary with rotational speed. The shape will be roughly a square wave _]-[_]-[_ (the dashes belong at the top of the brackets, don't...

Aha ! You have an '03 trans? (did I miss that earlier) The TCM absolutely should be the same year as the trans. Engineers just love to change circuits between model years. Keeps techs on their toes. Imagine a '96 TCM that speaks French trying to communicate with '03 sensors and wiring...

gimpyrobb, found out about the Michelin thing when making my last Goodrich purchase. Mentioned that I wouldn't buy Michelins if they were free and the guy turned a very nice shade of green then shared. Confirmed by the warranty pprwrk. The tires were still awesome so I changed my tune...

The voltage issue is absolutely vital. No computer will work without the correct input voltage and solid grounds. The speed sensors might cause problems but like it said in the DIY.com post. A veteran trans guy had no good first answer and suggested trying the sensor swap. Won't hurt...

Put it in the other thread. My source said it's for a '94 6.2 L diesel. I am guessing you bought this vehicle like this ? Sounds like someone was monkeying around with it. My 2cents. for what you'll spend on diagnosis and locating the replacement parts you can most likely buy and install a...

Have you looked into (the horror) off brand ( Nexen, Mastercraft, etc. ) tires ? If you are wanting to stick with surplus for look or "authenticity" that is admirable and I certainly understand. Unless you have an " I won't use anything but . . ." stance, tires are one of the few parts of your...

Ah, new thread for the same discussion. My suggestion is to have someone with an appropriate scan tool plug in and analyze what is going on. Sounds like it's in "limp" mode. Know anyone that works at a Chevy truck store / service center ? Buy them some refreshment and have them give her a...

Fiona, what a fine name. Lyrical and distinguished. Looks like a terrific start you have made there. Is the hardtop designed to be removable (albeit with a crane)? I ask because I can't decide how I want to go with mine. Won't have a place to store a hardtop if I wanna eat bugs for a few...

Department of Redundancy Department :shrugs:

From what I can find the chip is for the engine computer. This shouldn't have any bearing on your transmission if the engine is operating properly. A little more info if you could : What, exactly, is wrong ? You asked about an engine chip then mention a transmission problem. Diagnoses are...

A little confused. Are you asking what an E-prom is ? It's the "chip" that goes in the ECU for the engine. E - means it's flash programmable (can be changed by someone with the equipment and know-how).

The three best words to live by, Improvise, Adapt. Overcome. Good work. Snow in OK while us yankees are sweating. What global warming?

My turn on the :soapbox: Sorry, just been waiting to use that one. I'll be the one to stick my neck out and say it. Maintenance, maintenance, maintenance. Check ALL the fluids, all the time (or at LEAST as often as the TM says). Yes, components fail. However, the first things we asked to...
