#3386 of 3449 Re: 2000 Chevy Blazer ABS problems, engages even with normal breaking. [bden1] by auto9999 Jul 01, 2009 (9:31 pm)
Replying to: bden1 (Jul 01, 2009 7:02 pm) It may be a bad speed sensor. It is a relatively cheap fix. It happened to my 2000 Blazer, too. Good luck.
#3387 of 3449 Re: 2000 Chevy Blazer Heater Core [bden1] by auto9999 Jul 01, 2009 (9:39 pm)
Replying to: bden1 (Jul 01, 2009 5:38 pm) My 2000 Blazer also had bad heater core and I had to replace it. The heater core can be clogged over weeks or months. In my case the symptom was the gurgling sound in the heater core. Then the coolant leaked from the heater core to inside cabin and then to the outside of the vehicle.   Looks like your heater core is just clogged and is not leaking. If I were you, I would bring the vehicle to another shop (maybe a reputable dealer or someone you can really trust) and have it examined. They might be able to flush your heater core.   Good luck to you.

Replying to: bden1 (Jul 01, 2009 5:38 pm) They may have gotten debris in the cooling system. Quick repair attempt would be to pull the hoses off the core and backflush the core with a garden hose. Note what comes out of the core. If it backflushes to clean water, and forward flushes okay, hook the hoses back up and top off the cooling system with Dexcool or equivilent (long life antifreeze. Don't mix with the 12 month stuff, bad things happen!), assuming that's what was put in after the gasket repair.

Replying to: bden1 (Jul 01, 2009 5:38 pm) Some debris could easily have been knocked loose during the maintenance work. GM's Dexcool will form crud in the cooling system if it isn't flushed and replaced every two years. Also, mixing other antifreeze with the Dexcool will cause the gummy stuff to form.   I've never had any luck clearing a clogged cooling system with flushing,. The chemicals just don't eat away the stuff. The only sure cure is to Remove and Replace. Your radiator and heater core may begin to leak due to the corrosion of the aluminum. This is usually due to the electrical current created between the aluminum radiator and iron engine block by the weak antifreeze (same as above).
#3391 of 3449 Re: STEERING WHEEL WON'T UNLOCK!! [danvega13] by johnss10 Jul 06, 2009 (8:31 am)
Replying to: danvega13 (Jul 04, 2009 4:50 pm) Two common problems create this. 1) worn/broken ignition switch or 2) the front wheels are turned when the key is turned off, creating tension on the steering wheel lock pin. It can take a lot of effort on the steering wheel to relieve the tension enough to allow the key to move.

Could you tell me the location of the A/C drainhole on a 1995 jimmy? thanks.
#3393 of 3449 Blazer Moonroof Rain Drains by blackrottie Jul 23, 2009 (5:41 pm)
Does anyone know where the drains are for the moonroof? My 2002 2-door blazer smells of mildew. I think my moonroof drains are clogged but I can't seam to find them so that I can blow them out with a compressor.   There are no signs of leaks, I just smell mildew when it rains.
#3394 of 3449 Problems with headlights and photocell maybe? HELP PLEASE!! by 0dynasty24 Aug 06, 2009 (1:08 pm)
I have a 98 Chevy blazer LT and just about a month ago only the day time running lights would work, and at night they will shut off. me and my friend figured out you can make the DRL's stay on with a flashlight up against the photocell. but I still cant get the actual headlights to work, also the brights wont come on, not even the indicator light telling me that its on. What do you think could be the problem? Replies to this message: johnss10 (Aug 09, 2009 7:56 am) jlflemmons (Aug 09, 2009 12:09 pm)
#3395 of 3449 Re: no power to cab [swoodruff] by carchick29 Aug 09, 2009 (6:30 am)
Replying to: swoodruff (Dec 07, 2007 12:15 pm) I have the same problem! No power to the cab at all. I have power at my starter and my alternator but no power at my ignition. Someone told me that it could be a bad fusable link too but I had power to the cab before I changed my engine. If you get any help with this or find the problem let me know. thanks
