What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[Geotrash]

Also when I went to lunch today I am seeing my AC compressor won't kick on and the light is blinking.

If it's not the rear A/C lines, then it's probably that little Schrader valve on the low pressure port where you add the refrigerant. Best to do the job right with replacing the little valve, then drawing a vacuum for 45 minutes and adding the correct amount of refrigerant, by weight. Otherwise you're asking for trouble with the low-slung compressor on these rigs.

Those little cans you get at Autozone with the gauge are $hit. Troubleshooting A/C stuff is one of the things I'm willing to go to a pro for.

I was just reading a discussion in here this morning or last night about the same issue. I can't find it though. Somebody posted a link to this gauge kit. Ring any bells?

@George B might be guilty as charged.

That'll do. I have this one and a harbor freight vacuum pump:

How so?

by allowing companies to move manufacturing outside of the border without consequence, stating anything else will break the rules here.
there should have been limits put in place or more limits anyway

Randeez is the culprit.

 

[randeez]

Randeez is the culprit.

...except he's got a saturn and the only thing oem left on mine is the evaporator in the dash

Yeah, I was thinking of just the gauges.

Or we could have leveled the playing field by requiring any foreign manufacturer to comply with the same financial, environmental and labor rules that we regulate US manufacturers by. That would bring its own set of problems, but the US regulatory environment is part of what drove manufacturers out of business.

We used to make all the wall ties for our forming customers that we sold to. Now they can't find any and now they come in here busting our ballas "why did you stop making them and why can't you now?".

Because you fuggers chose the cheap China shit over ours and we couldn't compete. Now your paying for it. All those old ma and pa shops, brick and mortars, small businesses used to make all this shit here. Big business took over everything. Sourced everything out of country.

Now our competitors HDSupply/Whitecap doing the same shit.

And when you stopped buying our stuff, we had to sell the machinery off. Guess where that went? What about the steel to run through the machines to make it? More imported than domestic I can tell you.

We can't even supply wire mesh for DOT roadwork because there is no USA steel available to make it.

This country is in very deep sh*t right now.
