    '03 Headlight replacement

    The wife hit a deer this morning in the Yukon and took out the driver's side headlight and turn signals and part of the grille. I could use new fog light housings as well as they was damaged from a previous owner. It is not a Denali however I am looking at various headlight types. Something...

    Brakes

    Check the steel lines mine exploded last year when bleeding the brakes after replacing everything on the rear I bought a stainless set and have been replacing them.. you could be lucky and it is just a line going to a caliper. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

    Troubled 03 yukon

    As far as the low voltage aspect I have had both the battery and alternator tested and they have shown good as well. But it just takes a spike or drop for a split second to cause this issue but again tossing parts at it in hopes is getting expensive. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

    Yes on this particular model the TPS has to 5 volt reference signals it has two grounds and it has two signals for different signals for it to compare to see if there is a throttle mismatch I believe that was like a 1516 code or even a 15 15 15 17 but not the 1518 that I'm getting now is a...

    Troubled 03 yukon

    Ok folks dropped it off at a shop that has had it since Thursday of last week. Stopped in to check on the problem and they can't seem to figure it out as well so it's not just me at this point... When I first got it a year ago it was getting a mismatch on the tps. Read then in this forum that...

    Reworked the instrument cluster tonight

    The lights are under the face and there is a plastic light guide under that then you get to the lights. So unfortunately yes. However mark them with painters tape with the needles at full counterclockwise makes easy to peel off once done. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

    Reworked the instrument cluster tonight

    I may have to look into that just how close to the face they sit seems to be part of the issue. Still have 4 out of the 9 that aren't lighting up was 3 so remounting one took another one out. I am wanting to do something with the face trim now. But the brakes took a toll on the cash flow...

    Reworked the instrument cluster tonight

    I have a 2003 yukon. They have a face that has the symbols blacked out as well. Almost got that one instead but went this way with it. And the Trans gauge works without needing it programmed. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

    Reworked the instrument cluster tonight

    New needles have been installed. I am not a fan for the leds. They focus too much light in one place. I am going to try a different style led maybe.. the blue incandescent turn green with age. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

    Help with wiring please

    On my truck I have a power point close to the alternator. 5-6 amps cam safely run through a switch without a relay. There is a power point at the alternator or at a fuse box. Add in line fuse. And a switch of proper rating and your liking. You can ground to the body or run to a single ground...

    Help with wiring please

    LEDs are best parallel. Fuse the positive. Then calculate number of units. 2 per wheel at 9watts per is 72watts. Plus 10% so let's say 80watts of power through the circuit after wires so total amps would be about 5.3 hard to find a fuse for 6 amps though so maybe a 7? Amps = watts / voltage...
