Fuel indicaton problem by nick14
Mar 26, 2005 (10:19 am)
i'm baffled at this, when i start my truck i get no fuel indication on the gauge and the low fuel message appears on the message center. now from here i can put the truck into any gear and if i remain parked my fuel gauge remains at zero. if i put it in any moving gear, drive for insatnce and start moving it stays at zero, but then, while still moving if i stick it in neutral the guage will go all the way to full. regardless of how much fuel i actually have. so then i go back to drive and slowly over the course of my trip the guage will drop to the appropriate fuel level. where do i start with this.

My break problem started at 60K. I asked my service shop about a fix. I was told it could be fixed but would be costly. He then asked me if it did the same with a load. I didn't notice it all the time, so that could have been why. He told me it is common about 1 in 3. I am looking at a new Yukon XL. I asked for trade value on my "98 K1500 Ext cab long bed. NADA list for $15,000. On the trade-in sheet the tech noted ABS issue. They would give me $7000. I told the salesman, I will be back with a check for $14000 after I sell my truck. They know about the problem, they know it's not an easy fix. Did we hear about any recalls? NO! It seems like a safety concern, they are avoiding.

I have had this problem with my 2000 Sierra. Dealer replaced both wheel bearings with sensors built in to them. Corrected problem. $450.00.

Its a coil pack. I have replaces two on mine at 60K already. Hook up a scan tool to figure out which pack it is.

Classic symptoms of a bad fuel sending unit or wiring/connection therein. If you have a wiring diagram, you can trace it, but likely, the sending unit will need to be replaced.

ABS BRAKES by mikec8 by shiftless

ABS Brakes activated at slow speed (just before stop). This problem on my 2K GMC was corrected by the dealer cleaning one of the front wheel sensors. There was no part replacement!

1500 HD whining noise by 99launch
Mar 30, 2005 (8:05 pm)
--My truck has a whining noise that is coming from the right side of the truck, and no its not my girlfriend. As the truck passes through the 800-1000rpm range it makes a whistling sound, it also does it when the rpms are around 2000rpm. If anyone has any suggestions that would be great, thanx.
