    Electric Cooling Fans

    you buy them from HPT, $50 a credit. our trucks need two credits to unlock the tune so you can edit and flash it back to the pcm. and thats for unlimited editing. if you shop around they sell the hp tuners interface with any where from 2 to 10 credits. like hellcats take some crazy amount, 12 iirc.

    Service 4 Wheel DrIve

    need to scan it for codes. might need a scanner that can do abs, srs as well as p codes. cheap scanners just cover them P codes. but if the cel is lit you've got a code to start diaging things if its related.

    What can I gain from a tune?

    on a stock car or truck your not feeling anything ground breaking. the most your gonna feel is the trans tune part of the tune. its not like your unlocking 50-100 hp. ive got a 600 whp camaro, driving my tahoe is truly like driving a slug, its apples and oranges. tahoe is stock and tuned too...

    Electric Cooling Fans

    changing the fan settings is hardly tuning. a child could do it. that easy. its a nice tool to have your box tho. ive got one. used it on every car/truck ive owned over the last 10 years, as well as friends cars and work trucks.

    Electric Cooling Fans

    you would need to buy a hpt or efi live tuner. i think both would run ya about 400 with credits to unlock the pcm.

    Electric Cooling Fans

    how do the wires to the pig tail look? any cracks or bare wire showing? worst case you leave it unplugged and just have the fans on full time.

    likely me said that......if the fans come on ect unplugged. all the wiring works as it should. sensor maybe bad.

    Front Brake hose replacement

    you can just do the fronts, just swap em fast and make sure the master dont go empty. might be worth doing them all and flushing the old fluid out if its not been done.

    2003 Z71 trying to rid all electrical probs

    id start with checking cleaning remounting all the grounds. add couple maybe before buying a new bcm. and the bcm has zero to do with the engine. thats the pcm. and i dont think the engine will miss a beat running off the current tune the 03 has. just make sure all the sensors are the same...

    2005 Yukon long tube headers

    E Fans only right fan turning on when A/C is on?

    kinda seems like a tune issue still. what happens if you pull the plug off the temp sensor. its in the head up front end driver side. both fans should come on full speed with it unplugged. if they do both relays and wiring are working.

    Transfer case wiring adapter?

    if you can find a wire diagram or if the wires are the same color and in the same place, you can take the pig tail plugs apart and move the wires to the right plug.

    E Fans only right fan turning on when A/C is on?

    im guessing you bought the truck with the efan swap on it already? if so it could be a tuning issue.

    usually when it wont turn one way with power the box, or the rack is bad. im sure you could rebuild it your self. ive seen vids, but really seems like a pita. reman box i got was like $350.

    Tonyrodz's Tahoe Build Thread

    bet thats due to your loose of communication via the obd2 port. if he cant fix that from loosing power he would need to bench flash it out side of the truck with a bench harness.

    Odd hum/whine from rear while accelerating

    id check the level/change the rear diff fluid. taking the cover off will let you see if theres any metal laying at the bottom too.

    Brakes, bleeding oddity

    any chance you put the calipers on the wrong side? bleeders need to be on the top of the caliper when mounted. if on the bottom you'll never get em bled.
