What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

I've heard a lot of bad things about Samsung appliances. The drum in their front loaders rust out every 5 years or so. I know two people that have had to replace their fridges just out of warranty. Ill just keep fixing my Kenmore stuff from the 90s.

My wife and I got 15 years out of our Maytag washer, 20 years out of our Amana fridge and my wife decided that she wanted a new look in the kitchen so when we replaced the fridge, we got a new stove as well. The dryer is still cooking along. We went with Maytag when we bought for our first house because my Father-in-Law worked for them for 34.5 years. Now that Whirlpool owns them and gutted my father-in-laws "guaranteed lifetime insurance and pension" four years after he retired from Maytag, not Whirlpool, we have stayed away from Whirlpool or Maytag brand products. We have been very happy with GE products and extremely happy with the local family owned appliance store we buy from.

I didn't hear or notice that the clock spring "unwound". The wiring tab stayed where it belonged, and I lifted it straight off. I guess I'll find out if they're toast if/when I ever get around to swapping the wheel.

Every new clockspring I've seen is shipped with a locking tab at the center point, assuming they will be installed with the steering wheel and tires centered. They don't "unwind" by themselves, at least not much. You can take a used one and find the center by *gently* turning it from end to end, being careful to not put much pressure when you get to either end. Count the turns from end to end, divide by 2, and from one end move it back that many turns. That's the center.

Some of them are marked with the full turn count. The one in the graphic has 5 turns from end to end, centered would be 2.5 turns from either end.

Gents,

I wanted to do a full Led swap on the front and rear exterior.

03 Denali

9005 9006 for hi/lows.

No idea what the part #s are for the 3 bulbs in the drl/turn blinker or the fogs?

880 bulbs for the rear reverse bulb?

Headlight low 9006
Headlight high 9005
(Leds are usually designed to fit both)
Fog light 880
Turn signal 3157
DRL 4114LL
Corner marker bulb 194
Brake light 3157
Rear turn signal 3157 or 3156
Reverse 3157 or 3156

good source I’ve used for years, always accurate. But by now I have our body style lights memorized. Same exact lights are used for tahoe, Silverado , Sierra , all the trucks . https://www.modifiedlife.com/2003-gmc-yukon-headlight-light-bulb-sizes/

Heard good things about superbright leds. I usually go through only jdmastar but I think they recently just went out of business.

Yeah Samsung appliances are garbage. We had a laundry pair, the front loading washer sucked ass. Finally gave up and got a top loader from LG which has been great. Samsung dryer still working after 10 years though, did have to replace a thermal fuse once. Everybody I know with a $2400 Samsung fridge, the ice maker no worky

That ice maker takes 15 minutes to replace and the upgraded part costs like $75. Tell your friends to fix it lol. All you need is a #2 Phillips.
