Power Door lock issues by bpotts
Dec 27, 2006 (11:53 am)

My 1997 Jimmy has begun to lock and unlock itself after the it has been shut off. There is not a keyless entry on this vehicle and I have checked the fuse as well. I pulled the fuse in an attempt to operate it manually but when I pulled the fuse there was a whirring noise that was coming form under the dash intermittently. Not sure where to begin looking for this problem. Has anyone else experienced this?

If 97 they have a known bad ignition switch (actually the connector and module in the column) so see the many posts on that - all power goes thru there.

1995 GMC Jimmy 4.3 Vortec, engine stalls at idle by firefighterfox

the engine idles 650 to 675 rpm
there is an intermittent miss that does not create a problem, but, if while in gear the AC compressor cycles on at the same time the miss hits, then the engine will frequently stall.
It will start right back up with no problem, runs and drives great until you stop at a light or intersection.
Many new items installed, ie: plugs , wires, cap, rotor, dist. module, coil, injector assem., plenum fuel lines, fuel pump, egr cleaned, fuel relay and more.........
Idle control valve appears to be working properly.
Computer does not seem to have time to speed up the engine for the additional load of the AC or steering pump before it stalls and dies.
After the engine is warmed up, I can disconnect the idle control valve and it appears to run smoother.
Anyone had this issue?
 
thanks, Greg

Probablty as you said the IAC is not responsing to the PCM commands so connector or valve. Get the AC checked out to see if the compressor is dying - excessive drag as the clutch cycles the AC on/off or could be just low pressure so a recharge required

I have 96 blazer that recently threw a rod bearing. In my hunt for a used 4.3, I stumbled upon my coworkers motor out of a 99 bravada. He's givin it up for a great price and I know it was well serviced, it was pulled for a 350 swap. Does anyone know if this motor will work in my 96????

The 99-01 had the secondary air injection so you can use it but need to change the exhaust manifolds or simply plug the place where it comes out - depends if smog state and they would really have to get down in there to see it. The computer may be different also so check with the GM dealer on that with your VIN - i.e. is a 96 and 99 the same? Think some of the sensors were also changed so some inputs also may have been. Wrecking yards have a cross ref book that also tells the answer.
