Tonyrodz's Tahoe Build Thread

Did you get the pcm flashed for the fans?

I did it myself with HP Tuners. I found a stock 2005 tune and used the "compare tunes" feature to see all the differences and then made them. I was intimidated by putting the two pins into the ecu harness but it wasn't that bad. If you have HP Tuners I can do the tune changes for you.

With a stock harness blue wire goes to the green connector on pin 33, blue wire goes to green connector, pin 42. I used a needle to punch through the hole insert and I had to take off the transparent colored covers.

Unfortunately I don't have HP Tuners, I have to get a tuner to do it for me. I already have the harness from ScottyBoy and the fans themselves. Just gotta get it done.

Argh, I’d been wondering how this turned out. Then discovered I wasn’t getting notifications for the thread.

Good news it seems.

Same here!
Am just catching up on 6 pages reading as no notifications either.
Reading this job has been like all your mates standing around the job offering help. Good team effort. I know where I'll be looking if I end up having to do the same.

Well worth whatever I paid for it. I also installed a new cv ds axle. Weird thing--the brake maintenance light went off, but the abs light is still on. I tried to clear the codes but they just kept coming back. Next step is to swap out the ps sensor--and take it from there.

Tony did you order that online or go to the store? Did that bit with the v-notch come with it or is that a separate item?

Regardless, you need this kit and you will be all set.

Picked it up at the store. Iirc it came with 4 bits and that was 1 of them. Everything under $30.
