And moms boat tucked into the driveway when we got home last night.
And my thermostat o ring fix was flawless! Not a drop of leaked coolant from my truck the entire weekend. Plugged in the tech2 on the way home to monitor real time data and temps and engine and coolant temps never went above 200 degrees even up the grades towing! I’m getting better and better with each necessary fix! Lol

Even with the couple little hiccups it was a really fun trip. Wished I’d stayed out there a bit longer.... but you know.... that work thing.... lol

My S10 did this after a cheap LED turn signal bulb swap. I've also heard of poor grounds causing the power to backfeed.

So I went through this evening and thoroughly cleaned and inspected all of the grounding points. All are clean now and tightened down snug. And none of them had any frayed or bad wiring that I could see. The problem persists. I’m stumped and really frustrated. Lol.

That looked like a great trip. Sorry to hear about your turn signal issue.,I hate electrical problems. I’m currently in the middle of one on my Denali as you know. It looks now like it’s going into limp mode. I just ordered a used ECM as I wait to hear from BlackBear after sending them a log file to look over which might take weeks to get to.

Nice little get away for sure. Yeah I saw that you picked one up from LKQ. Seriously Justin needs more help. Multiple weeks just to look over a tune file is ridiculous.

So yesterday I finally got the turn signal issue fixed. I had a busy A S S day and was so irritated with it. Got back up the mountain from a quick trip down to chemical guys and when I got home I decided let’s pull the fuse for the turn signal and see what happens. Pulled the fuse and arrow in my glass and the green arrow in my cluster where still staying dimly lit.... I’m like well that’s not supposed to happen.... so I pulled the turn signal lense off the truck and pulled both turn signal sockets out. The main signal socket had some wires spliced together from where I had previously tapped into it for some aftermarket lights that I ended up taking off a while back cuz they were janky and ghetto looking. The wiring was all loose. I jiggled it around a couple times and the turn signal started functioning normally. So I pulled all the splice connectors and redid everything with fresh connectors and made sure to crimp them down nice and snug. I grabbed heat shrink tubing and warmed it up to snug it up and make sure everything was properly sealed. And now my turn signal works as it should. In the process of taking the bulb in and out of the socket a couple times while I was fixing wires and what not, the bulb blew..... picked up a new bulb this morning and it’s good to go. Lol.
