Radiator crapped out.

Get an advanced code reader and read the code for the airbag light (reader needs to do body codes). It will help you pinpoint the issue instead of throwing parts at it. Post up the code when you get it.

ABS - airbag sensor?

Not sure what DS is.

Do you mean something like this? https://www.ebay.com/itm/383876821422?hash=item5960d771ae:g:-BsAAOSwp19f51w0

I bet the airbag sensor on the driver side, underneath crapped out. Super common on these. I had the same issue. Replaced mine with a used one--gtg.

I fixed my post. I don't know why it posted as abs. Should've said srs. Ds is the driver's side.

I posted my build sheet a few posts up. How do I read those RPO codes? I don't see anything in there that indicates radiator sizing.

If you look inside the glove box cover, the RPO codes are listed there. Much easier for us to read if a pic of that is posted here. Only care about the codes and not the description when looking for correct application. If you notice, at RA, the two choices we have given are the same size. I had to look thru all the RPO codes, listed at RA, for each radiator part number to make sure I ordered the right one. PITA sometimes but is important. If you will post a pic of those codes in the glove box, I will help look it up, if you wish.

Is there any difference between that one and this one?

The one you listed is part # 15057506. The one RA lists for my truck is 15103522

Could there possibly be a difference between those two? It looks like such a simple part.

I would love it if you would teach me how to make heads or tails over the RPO codes!

Thats pretty easy actually..

Send an email to [email protected]

Include your VIN # and ask for your build sheet.

In a day or 2, they will respond with your RPO sheet, with a brief description of each.

Or you could use http://www.free-vin-decoder.com/ (its free)
Punch in your VIN on the top right, and click on Decode VIN.

They aren't as accurate thou as the GM one. But it will get you started.

He already listed his build sheet, that he got from some site, in post #3. I just don't want to scroll thru all of those descriptions. The pic he just posted is more up my alley.

Also.. Why are people so worried about posting a VIN # online?

Not really sure, but you can google the part number to see if it'll work for you, or stick your head under the frontend and peep it out. Either way will work.
