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

[Tonyrodz]

Yep. Pull that panel then the actuators are right there. My blend one was inop, it was stuck in the heat position. You can move the shafts by hand with the actuators removed.

Thank you Mark.

Upgraded (IMO) my dash to two-tone black and tan this weekend by installing a Coverlay dash cover. Also replaced the clips on my Metra double-din dash bezel from the ****** aftermarket ones it comes with to new OEM clips I ordered. It fits way better now–much more tight and sturdy. I walked through both upgrades in a video:

Going to see if my injectors are a bit grimey or if injector cleaner doesn't work. Took a before measurement. 40mi freeway, 60mph with like 2 slowdown-speed ups. Guess we'll see what happens

No change. Nothing that I can't attribute to random variance anyway. Misfire counts, long term fuel trims, and idle feel remain unchanged. So my takeaways are: either my injectors are fine, or they aren't and the tank added fuel injector cleaner is ineffective. Couldn't say without pulling injectors and measuring flow / pattern and I'm not going to do that

Now can you replace the 2015 keey flob with my old 2006 keey flob ? [emoji849][emoji15]With factory remote start.. because my originals look just like yours.
Let's say they have some serious miles on them lol.

Yes the remote start also works on the one for my 08 Silverado. Boost Auto Parts, https://boostautoparts.com/products/fob

Put a LOT of time into the Tahoe this weekend. Permanently installed a battery maintainer with a plug mounted on the bumper, painted the passenger airbag cover, installed a Coverlay dash cover, installed a custom switch panel where the cassette player used to be.. This is a quick write-up on the battery maintainer.

So I've been having a TON of trouble with my Tahoe battery. I have a bunch of equipment that draws on the battery at all times and I don't drive it on a daily basis. In fact, I go out of town at least once a month. So three batteries have died on me, including my hella expensive XS Power D3400, which not only died, but is damaged an unchargable.

My plan is to eventually install a second battery for accessories, isolated from the starter battery (already bought the mounting tray), but for now, I made my owner extension cable:

1. 3 wire power cable https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07F5YWC7B/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
2. Male 3 prong weather resistant outlet https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074T57WS6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1
3. Female 3 prong weather resistant outlet https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07SLM8LT5/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I have an aftermarket Hammerhead flush-mount rear bumper that already had a 1.75" hole for access to the key cylinder for the stock spare tire release. The outlet fit in there perfectly! I mounted my battery maintainer directly on top of my battery and ran the cable to the rear bumper. Here's a video of the process:

I'l try to cut together a video(s) of the dash cover and switch panel later today.

Great mod, that's my next mod. My SUV is not a daily either and I'm having the same battery issue you have.

Nice! What kind of battery are you running? After the XS Power battery died I just ran to Advanced and got whatever they had on the shelf.. turned out to be that Duralast.
