    Steering Wheel Controls Work Wonky

    The 02 Escalade I purchased came without a stereo. I picked up a stock BOSE head unit off ebay, plugged it in, and it works. Stereo sounds great, seems to work well. But, the steering wheel controls don't work properly. When I push the Volume Buttons it seeks, when I push the Seek Buttons it...

    A/C Problem - 1999 Tahoe

    well if your compressor is turning on and your pressures aren't changing, then it sounds like a bad compressor. Or a bad clutch that isn't properly engaging the compressor.

    Adding AC Condensor Fan

    Hey guys, So I picked up an AC condensor fan a while back, and am going to install it here soon. I wanted to get input on the wiring for it. Attached is an image of how I think it should be installed, but wanted some verification, as I'm not an EE (I'm an ME :)). Basically, I was planning...

    Speaker in Headliner Tapping

    So in the new to me 02 Escalade, I got in it the other day turned the key to accessory, and the speaker in the headliner started pulsating, creating a tapping noise. Has anyone else experienced this? The configuration when this was going on was no radio installed and the dash cluster was...

    2001 Yukon 138K on the clock...TRANS

    Pick up a trans tomorrow and swap it out in a day. At least around here, you can get a trans pretty cheap. I haven't done a trans on one of these trucks, but most RWD arn't that bad.

    Picked up an 02 Escalade Yesterday

    Matt, Thanks for the info. Good to hear the interior details back to a good condition. That was the biggest downfall of the truck, the interior really is filthy. I'm not to worried about putting in the elbow grease to clean it up. And the exterior needs a good polish too. Plans are to...

    Dash Bezel Interchangability

    I saw that thread too. But right now I'm going back to OEM. As for the wood, that isn't a big deal. If it clips in that would work. But in general I haven't seen too many Escalade bezels on Ebay.

    Dash Bezel Interchangability

    So in the 02 Escalade that I just picked up, the previous owner notched out the radio hole to fit his aftermarket radio. I'm going back to stock for this car. Do the Yukon/Suburban/Tahoe dash bezels fit the Escalade? or are they completely different? I haven't seen too many Escalade ones on...

    Low rumble/vibration

    The escalade I picked up does something similar, At a stop I get what sounds like a little tapping occasionally. And then when I let off the brake it stops. Sounds like a loose exhaust hanger, but with the way it stops once I let off the brake i'm not too sure. Hopefully it isn't the trans...

    Picked up an 02 Escalade Yesterday

    As the title says, picked up an 02 Escalade yesterday. Black with tan interior. It is the 5.3 RWD, which I prefer, as I don't really need the 6.0 (although who doesn't love extra power). The body is in great shape, but the interior is filthy. Few minor blemishes to take care of, but all in...

    Air Ride Suspension?

    Thanks guys for the replies. Tires are in good shape, but probably have 15K miles on them now. The truck has 151K, and I don't know how old the suspension is. The front looks to be pretty new, as it is cleaner than the rest of the truck. I have only had the truck since 144K miles. The...

    Air Ride Suspension?

    Hey buys, I have a 2000 Limited and was wondering has anyone done an air ride suspension? Obviously it is a truck, but I would like a little bit smoother ride. Hitting bumps in the road jossles the entire vehicle. I don't really tow, it's primarily just the family hauler. Thanks...

    Insurance.......Where to get some for obs.

    I have geico for my 00 Limited. I thought for "Classic" insurance the car had to be at least 25 years old, garage kept and driven limited miles per year. At least when I was looking to get insurance for a 77 MGB thats the way it was.

    Advice: Part or sell outright a beat up '95 2-Door Yukon?

    I haven't parted out a car, but I did part out my motorcycle a few years back. It is a lot of work, but generally you can get more out of it. Stop by a big box store and ask them for some boxes they are throwing out as well as packing peanuts or bubble wrap that is scrap. That will at least...

    New rims and tires for 5 lug tires?

    So are you planning a 4WD swap too? Or just planning on getting stuck in the mud?? Tire rack has a good selection, assuming it is the 5x5 pattern you need.

    99 Tahoe, will not crank

    If you aren't cranking at all, could you have a leaky injector that filled a cylinder? Basically hydrolocking the engine. Do you know what your fuel pressures were before the pump replacement? Pull the plugs and rotate the engine by hand to see if anything comes out.

    Spider Injection Leaking?

    I went ahead and ordered the new spider. Should be here Monday. And I have the felpro kit with new bolts going in too. As well as new tstat, upper and lower hoses, cap, rotor, plugs, wires, rad cap and fuel filter :)

    Ideal temps for efans using the 0411 PCM?

    That looks like good choice for a 195 tstat. Is that what you are running?

    Spider Injection Leaking?

    Hey guys, I'm in the process of replacing the LIM gasket, and got to the point where the upper intake is off. When I got it off I noticed that there is a lot of soot near the front inlets, but the rear looks fairly clean. Is this indicative of a leaking/bad spider injection system? Or is...

    Benefits of 411 ecu swap to run 5.7 now and LQ9 later

    If you purchase one or pull it from an Express Van, it should not need any mods to the engine tune providing the Express Van you pulled it from was also running a 5.7L Vortec as well. If the van was running the 5.3, 4.8 or 6.0 you will need to have it flashed with the 5.7 tune. I also believe...

    Benefits of 411 ecu swap to run 5.7 now and LQ9 later

    I thought that if you upgraded the the 411 pcm and used an express van factory tune it would be fine, and the if you upgrade to an LSX, if you get the engine harness it would plug right in, and require another tune for the new engine. Am i wrong on this assumption? matt
