    2001 Yukon door locks sticking? Solenoid?

    I had a similar problem on my 2004 Yukon where the rear doors would hardly ever unlock, but would always lock after I was under way. From clues on the forum, I learned that there are two relays, one for locking and one for unlocking only the rear doors (?) located in the fuse compartment...

    dashboard/interior illumination not working...

    I had the same problem. Replacing the headlight switch/dimmer knob assembly in my 2004 (Part 15194803) fixed the problem. Pulled off the dash bezel, popped out the switch module, using a flat bladed screw driver to release the lower latches, did the trick! I now have dash/interior lights!

    P04055 and P04096 Trouble Codes

    I had the P0496 code, and found that the purge solenoid valve, on the intake manifold, was faulty -- not shutting off completely. Replaced it, reset the codes, and hopefully they'll stay off.

    Interior air filters.

    We changed the two filters on my son's 2002 Suburban. They were packaged as a set, about $15. Wow, were the old ones dirty!

    Should I remove my rack? Opinions wanted.

    I just took off the two cross bars. SF has one old parking garage with very low clearance, and now I can just squeak in with out rubbing. My high point now is 6' 2".

    WTH Did I do Wrong? Remote Key not working!!!

    Locksmith or AAA time? I was locked out and the AAA guy slipped a long thin piece of metal down the window on my Vette, and the door lock released. Good Luck -- That is really a bad day!

    How do you get OEM cluster bulbs out???

    Wow! I have one bulb behind the speedometer LHS that is out. Sounds like it is a big deal to change out just one! Should I just tough it out until more go? 2004 Yukon. Thanks

    Why are 5.3 dogs?

    Possibly depends on the individual car's setup. I tried a 2004 Yukon from a dealer's lot, and it was a dog. Then, same day, I found a 5.3 4WD that was much stronger, and I bought it. Very happy (after three months) so far.

    RockAuto Introduction & Discount Code!

    Good Service, Good Prices I've had very good luck with Rock Auto. The diagrams and illustrations help to identify parts if several versions have been used, ie "early" and "Late" in a model year. Sidepipes

    SCC Z6 SZ451 tire cables?

    Hi, In California, even with 4WD, under certain conditions the Highway Patrol requires carrying chains, and in R3 conditions mandates their use. I have ordered SCC's SZ451 cables, which are supposed to be for vehicles with very tight clearances, such as my 2004 Yukon. Anyone have any...

    Getting message?:"Tighten Gas Cap" or are you Unable to fill your tank? ! Look here !

    I bought the canister purge solenoid valve from AM-autoparts.com for $30.50, including shipping from eBay. It came quickly, so now it's time to install it. I didn't have a lift, so down came the spare, and under the Yukon go I!. Just like Travieso, I had a hard time getting the hose clips...
