#1272 of 1492 Re: Steering Problem-'97 K1500 Sierra [mikec8] by gmc2004crew Dec 07, 2005 (10:40 am)
Replying to: mikec8 (Dec 03, 2005 3:20 pm) Mike,   I had a 1997 Ext. Cab (GMC) 1500. I had the same problem you are having and they replaced something called an EVO sensor and it fixed the problem right away. The feeling it gives in the steering is very odd and it is almost like the steering skips. Ask about the EVO sensor/? and see if that can be done to your truck.

Replying to: joeob (Oct 29, 2005 6:27 am) Hi there. I am in the same situation as you were with your brakes on your GMC Sierra. Mine is a 1998 so is not included in the recall so we have taken it to a dealership and paid ourselves to have the maintenance described in the recall to it. It is still not working . Furthermore it has started to engage the antilock brakes when the gas pedal is still being depressed. Did you get your problem repaired? If so, was it done thru the recall or did you go to another technician? I am looking for anyone who may know what else I can do for my truck as nobody (3 mechanics) can figure it out. Thanks in advance Sherry

Just thought I would pass on the solution to a problem I was experiencing after some gasket work done on my engine. After trial and error of everthing from sensors to the computer and all parts in between. It was a faulty pickup in a brand new distributor. A defect from the factory that cost me 11 hours or mechanical trial and error. Goes to show you that even new they break down Thanks again from Canada.

Replying to: joeob (Oct 29, 2005 6:27 am) I had a discussion thread on the same subject but for a '97 Sierra (Mar 05) Due to the helpful advice of people here, I fixed the problem. It turned out to be corrosion on the mounting surface for the ABS sensors. Here's a web link provided to me that explains it all. Good luck   http://www.mightyautoparts.com/pdf/articles/gb0804.pdf

#1280 of 1492 2002 8100 4x4 Suburban Hard to start by bobyoung Dec 15, 2005 (5:26 pm)
When the weather temp is hot/warm (S. Texas) it is harder to start than when the weather temp is cool (S. Texas). It is harder to start in the am before it is driven. After the vehicle is driven, it may or may not, start right up. Does this sound like a fuel delivery problem or throttle position?
#1281 of 1492 00 gmc starting problems by worm007 Dec 16, 2005 (5:58 pm)
I own a 2000 GMC sierra 1500 and the only problems I have ever had with it were the ABS recall and the tailgate latch. Today I went to start the truck and no dice. All dash lights came on. Tried a jump, checked small fuses, cleared the codes from the passlock system(turn key to on position and let sit for 10-15minutes) still didn't start. Had to be a starter problem. Before you have it towed like I did and get a call 5 minutes later with the problem, take this easy advice...UNDER THE HOOD IN THE FUSE BLOCK, PULL THE SQUARE STARTER RELAY AND SWITCH IT WITH THE WINDOW DEFROSTER RELAY, THIS WILL LET YOU KNOW IF ITS AS SIMPLE AS THE STARTER RELAY BEING BAD.
