Replying to: vlkohanski (Nov 21, 2000 8:50 pm) Another time saver is run a light from your ground on the battery and other end to a ground,,light should turn on if short. If on, go to fuse box and pull one fuse at a time and replace. Do this until the light goes out,,this will at least isolate the problem.

#3297 of 3449 Cruise Control Instrument Panel Light? by sierrared Oct 29, 2008 (5:39 pm)
My 2001 GMC Jimmy SLE has cruise control and I thought there was a light on the instrument panel that lit up when cruise control was on. There is one on my 2004 Sierra. But, either the light is burned out, or there isn't one. I can't find it in the owner's manual. Does anyone know if there is supposed to be a light?

#3300 of 3449 Re: Programming a new remote [impalacab] by olddave Oct 29, 2008 (8:31 pm)
Replying to: impalacab (Oct 01, 2008 9:13 pm) I purchased my 1998 Jimmy 4X4 in May this year. When I got it, I only received ONE igntion key for it. I had 2 more keys cut immediately to have some spares. But it had automatic door locks and power windows, etc., so I thought it might have been set up for keyless entry. Sure enough, I found on this forum the info that if it had an "AU0" build code on the glove box door, it should be all set for RKE. I found the AU0 code, and then I found your instructions of how to program the RKE fob. So I ordered 2 new fobs from gmpartsdirect.com for about $40 each, and by using your procedure, "SHAZAMM", I now have keyless entry for my Jimmy withourt having to pay a hunk of money to a GM dealer to make it work. So you get a big ATTABOY from me!!!

Replying to: mrurl (Feb 01, 2001 12:48 pm) I have a 2002 Blazer I got for free from my mother in law. Sounds great, except it's ruining my life. The anti theft system works sometimes and sometimes it doesn't. It has a mind of it's own. I would recommend taking it out all together. Mine is a little bit newer than yours. The anti theft system is probably an upgrade compared to your old anti theft system and it still gives me problems. I think they all should be discontinued. Take it out and just get a club.

#3303 of 3449 sudden stopage by buzzh Nov 18, 2008 (6:17 pm)
Hi, I've got a 1998 GMC Jimmy with 260000 miles. Car has been nonstop. Minor repairs. Been using Amzoil for a couple of years. Wife went to start and it suddenlly stopped with quite a jar. After that it would crank but backfire through intake. I set #1 at TDC and distributor was facing #4 Pulled distributor and gear is in tack. I have pulled the timing chain cover and all is well there. Marks line up on crank gear and cam gear. So I'm pulling motor. But was hopefull someone might have experienced this. Could cam gear have slipped or is it machined to cam? Can distributor have enough lateral travel that cam and distributor shaft would disengage? Any help would be appreciated.

Replying to: buzzh (Nov 18, 2008 6:17 pm) Buzz,   Don't pull the engine... I had a similar experience with a Chevy V8... Just as the engine started to crank... it stopped with quite a jar... just like you described. Any further attempts to start at that time... and the engine acted like it was locked up. I let it sit for a couple of hours... then it started... but had a lifter noise in #8. I noticed that the plug wire had come loose... but was still on the plug. The engine eventually started again... but took half a tank of gas before the lifter quieted down.   I have been using Amsoil since 1978... I use it in my 96 Blazer... and my 81 Grand Prix.   Suggestions: Pull all the plugs... see if the engine will crank... if so... see if any fuel comes out of any of the cylinders... particularly 5 or 6. If so... the most likely cause is a leaking fuel regulator inside the plentum.   Let me know what happens...   TJ Replies to this message: buzzh (Nov 18, 2008 7:30 pm) quantumtouchfl (Nov 19, 2008 9:04 am)
