Hello again fellow members. Earlier this year, I wrecked my pride n joy..my '07 SLT 4X4. I had bought it new and spent lots of time and $$ on it 
During that time I kinda let our other Yukon, a 2000 XL 4X4 take a back seat, as far as fixing some of it's little quirks. It was our family vehicle up until we bought our new Yukon...and it has been very well USED.It currently has 206k on in and runs great..HOWEVER.. needs lots of little fixes and I am unsure of where to begin.
With my work schedule (and having young kids) time is definitely an issue. I would like to tackle as many little fixes as I can first, and get more done in a short period of time.
Also, just like any other member of society, I need to get as much done for as cheap as possible..seems like $$ just don't go too far these days..
Here's a short list of things in order of annoyance:
*The keyless entry does not work AT ALL! I've already tried new batteries and a new remote with a reprogram. Also checked all of the fuses too..
*The dome light won't turn on when opening the driver's door..as a matter of fact, the radio won't turn off either. This is only when using the driver's door, these functions work properly when using any other door..
* Most of the window/lock switch lights are burnt out..including several on the radio and HVAC panel.. I've already replaced the bulbs in the dash cluster, but All of these other items use L.E.D's...
*ABS is not working at all. Brakes stop fine, just lock in wet conditions..
*4x4 works well in Hi/Lo/2WD modes, BUT in Auto Mode I feel what seems to be a bit of a slip? after coming form a stop..
*Driver's power window is SLLLLOOOOWWW!!
*Driver's side door is sagging, you really have to slam it shut!! SO of course, now I need a new inner door panel..
*This truck was imported from Canada and the headlights are ALWAYS on, any way to change this? Already tried the dome override..only works on U.S. vehicles..
*Need to replace the carpeting.
*The front Driver's seat/Third Row leather looks awful. I would just buy other seats from a salvage yard..but I have that stupid Oak(672 RPO) interior, and that color is impossible to find..
*Interior plastics are doing the famous G.M. FLAKING!!
As you all can see, I have my work cut out for me. All of these little things just piled up over the years, and we just decided to let them go. Now, It is once again my daily driver and all of these things are just gettin' on my nerves! Any help is greatly appreciated.
