Heater Blend Door Actuator
Yup, I got the $370 one or so. Ended up about $50 for the case, really. -
Heater Blend Door Actuator
I did the relearn with a new blend door - no fix. Also looked at the control head next to it (this is rear) and it looks like I replaced that unsuccessfully a few years back - Amazon told me I already bought one. I'm waiting on my Tech2 clone from China to see if I can learn something. -
Torsion bars?
I watched this the other day and thought it looked like a pretty doable thing for most folks.- tRidiot

Flex Fuel
I believe the VIN Z Flex Fuel vehicles have a different intake and corresponding fuel pump. As for the fuel pump, the regular ones have 3 connections on top, the Flex Fuel has 2, I believe? Different electrical connectors, too. Like this: Regular GAS: FLEX Fuel pump:- tRidiot

Chevy truck 4wd 5.3L Z71 pkg questions
I remember seeing something about this years ago, but I don't know where the thread on it is. If you have a link, please post it. I will do some more looking later, too. I really want to get rid of the ugly green on the HVAC screen, too, but I don't know that that is possible.- tRidiot

My “new” 05 - updates, upgrades and service plans
Can we get full new buttons, with new printing on them? Mine have mostly worn off - same as on my HVAC controls. I really don't want to do the 'stickers'. I saw somewhere on here where someone did a mod and put different color LEDs in his buttons, now that would be kick-****. Would love to...- tRidiot

2003 Tahoe coolant system leak or head gasket leak?
Yes this would work, if you have the know-how and ability to replace the heads. That is for a single, right? I would replace both at the same time, personally - and all the other things that go with it. It turns into a full top-half rebuild, essentially. The problem with this is that then you...- tRidiot

Interior swap questions
No, a 2007 will have different interior. For what you're talking about, I'm guessing 2003-2006 would be fairly well swappable. 00-02 had a lot of differences from 03-06. -
Engine swap '04 Tahoe 5.3 to 6.0
I believe it's all one piece... seems I saw a replacement new harness available recently for a coupla hundred somewhere. This may have been what I found - I probably would have considered it when doing my motor swap, had I known it was easily replaceable...- tRidiot

How do thieves circumvent the passlock theft deterrent?
I've got the Python system in all my vehicles (four of them). I just put it in my wife's 2018 RAV4 we just bought a couple weeks ago. It cost me a grand, covers everything and has a mile+ range with the 2-way LCD remote, remote start, etc., plus the Viper SmartStart. Can start the vehicle from...- tRidiot

2003 Tahoe coolant system leak or head gasket leak?
Actually, if it's the 706, you DON'T want the same heads. The 706 heads have a casting defect found in a large number that allows leaking of coolant slowly into one cylinder - I believe it's #5. Here's how you can tell - Actually, from my research, both the 706 heads AND the 862 heads were...- tRidiot

2003 Tahoe coolant system leak or head gasket leak?
Sounds just like the Castech head failure I experienced. I drove mine slowly SLOWLY losing coolant for probably 4 or 5 years. Only way to know for sure until you blow out a head is to pull the valve cover and look for a clean area around that cylinder - I think it's #5? Do you have the 706...- tRidiot

Wireless Charging
I have managed to find a manufacturer of large multi-coil solutions for this area that seem as if they would work very well. I have made an inquiry so I might obtain a couple of units for testing, if it works out well, who knows, I might be able to start my own little side business? lol -
HD Hood Swap
I think I'm the only one who doesn't really like the appearance of the HD hood swap. It looks ok on a couple of trucks, mostly ones that are slightly beefed up - like larger tires, maybe a slight lift. Mine would qualify, but in looking at lots of others with stock height and tires and lowered... -
What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?
Application keys are used only by Legacy MPVI devices, not MPVI2 devices. MPVI2+ uses a Verification Code, which can only be obtained through the software once the device has connected. This verification code is required in order to complete the registration process and for your device to show...- tRidiot

Wireless Charging
Yeah I don't consider that very big, it's just the size of the phone itself, is all, and right in the center. You could likely fit 4 of those triple-coil mats underneath and have the entire area active. Just need a controller that will work for all 4 - or do 4 independently-wired charging mats... -

Wireless Charging
I spent an hour or more doing some research, I think I'm gonna try to figure out a way to put multiple 3-coil or even multiple 5-coil inductive charging setups inside my armrest lid. Then I can convert the whole armrest into a charging pad to charge 2 or more phones at a time, hardwired into the... -

So my HP Tuners MPVI2+ came in just now... I have to decide if I'm confident enough to hook it up and analyze or not. I can't actually hurt anything just downloading, right? Just looking at my tune? As long as I don't try to upload/overwrite anything???- tRidiot

Wireless Charging
So my problem with most of these kits is that your phone has to be pretty well aligned with those charging coils to work properly for wireless charging. I'm wondering if there's a way to put in multiple coils or a much larger coil mat. There's no way in hail my phone is going to sit exactly in... -
Upholstery Arrived!
They've got a slight website, but I don't like the fact it won't let me order ONLY front seats. I guess I'd need to call them... <edit> Also need to find someone locally to install - I've watched some videos on seat rebuilds and that's a tedious PITA. -
