    New shocks for 2010 z71 update

    your right, its 9 yrs old, 160k and theres alot of pivot points in the steering linkage and rack. i just cant verify it and its too expensive to start changing it out without proof.

    Rear windows only operate at drivers controls

    2010 burban. the safety switches just keep the door from opening from inside. it seems that the general consensus is bad switch.

    Rear windows only operate at drivers controls

    thanks, so it seems like it is ussually at each door switch? i figured it was a bad lockout switch. i will probably pull the drivers console out and bypass the lockout switch first to be sure it is at the door. thanks

    Rear windows only operate at drivers controls

    i heard its common for the driver side button console to go bad, but if i dont want the window lockout feature can i just clip a wire to disable it and then the windows will work independently?

    rear video screen not working

    i really didnt care too much about the rear video when i bought my 2010 suburban, but now that i know it doesnt work, i just want to know if its common. i can hear the sound from a dvd but no picture on the rear screen. if i put it in park it does play on the navi screen tho. just a bad screen?

    Hot negative battery post and no power

    ok, had shop install new cable. hopefully that was the problem. i have noticed something tho. i seldom pay much attention to the battery gauge, i have never thought they were accurate or useful,just something taking up space. but, before cable replacement it always read over the 14volt mark...

    Hot negative battery post and no power

    i have ordered a new one, but i have looked at it and i dont know how i can get to the mounting location of the one ground that runs to the front w/o removing some stuff. its tight to just get my hand in there. why does it have 3 grounds coming off of it anyway? strange tho that i had the 3...

    Hot negative battery post and no power

    thanks yall. connections are all clean and tight, but wouldnt hurt to disconnect other end and wire brush it. its odd that when the truck is dead the negative terminal is hot. my mechanic says he thinks it can only be caused by a short somewhere on the positive side. unless the cable itself is...

    Hot negative battery post and no power

    a month or so ago i experienced a dead truck and realized the negative cable was loose, no problems for since until yesterday same thing. i wiggle the cable a little while hitting the key fob and power is restored. so do you think the loose cable situation compromised the cable over time? so, i...
