    Small bridging project M1009

    Don't worry. Me and the M1009 are still real, we are still here. The M1009 is currently dry in the underground garage. I still haven't got over the problems with the starter motor - see the thread - and one battery has also gone to the “eternal hunting grounds”. Now that the weather in Germany...

    It's a horror... :cry: If you don't have your own assembly hall or barn, you're very dependent on the weather. Now that I have the suspected causes for the starter motor that keeps coming loose - see the thread - and the Blazer is covered in the underground garage, the parts I need have...

    Dear Steel Soldier Community, Last weekend I had time again to do some work on the M1009. Thereby I had a short drive on a dirt road and during the inspection in the underground parking I discovered soil on the side skirt plate inside. This led to my question whether there are optimizing...

    Last week it arrived... The service and repair Bible to the Chevrolet Blazer. I was a bit surprised myself, as I had already forgotten about the Ebay International order from early March 2023. Yes, of course... I had been gathering all sorts of digital versions of the repair descriptions in...

    Solved In the answer to my question had been spoken of a 20 Ohm resistor and that the fuel gauge in the first third of consumption is somewhat "sluggish". The resistance I had not ausgemwesen, but the weekend before last I had consumed about 11 liters, the display had moved by 1/10 or 1/8. So...

    With every move I make, I realize how inexperienced I am. So over Easter was again some time to do some work on the Blazer. First I checked the fuses to the warning light 4WD and alternator 1, both fuses are ok. Then with the engine running I checked the generators. - From the driver's point...

    Dear Steel Soldier Community, I have 1001 questions and every time I pull into the garage because I've spent hours on the vehicle again, I have "at least" one new question. If I just ask them here in the thread, they get lost or we digress in parts. 😥 I will create a separate thread for each...

    "two steps forward and one step back..." OK, after removing the dash and speedometer again over the weekend, I checked all the wires again and found a loose connector. After fixing the plug to its socket, the speedometer background light was also burning again. Finally, at long last, this ToDo...

    Hello together, First of all, thank you for the answers you have given so far. You may notice as a reader, how I am very slowly step by step. For someone who has disassembled the interior of his Blazer endless times, it is 12 screws and 4 handles. For me it was 5 sweats, always a checking look...

    I have of course turned the switch lever "right" and "left" around several times. Thus - according to my understanding - tested the dimming function. Headlights, marker lights go. Lamps (bulbs) in the display area (speedometer) go. Does it make a difference in which final end orientation the...

    "Step by Step" First, many thanks to the other answers regarding the "Lisle 65750 Windshield Tool". I wrote that you can find it with a little search on Amazon. So the topic is, for me, clarified. Engine compartment cleaning or also "engine wash". Puhhh, who pulls here the Internet to the...
