#359 of 374 03 Sonoma transfer case problem by Indian4Rider Dec 05, 2008 (11:48 am)
03 Sonoma ext. cab, automatic trans w/3 button electronic transfer case; owned since new: All 3 buttons light when key is turned to start; 2WD button is lit once started. NOTHING happens when 4HI or 4LO button is pushed. Fuses under hood and in kick panel are good. Another site said probably bad actuator motor but I couldn't follow up and find out how to check it. Where is this actuator motor? Is there also a relay that could be bad? TIA Replies to this message: Indian4Rider (Dec 05, 2008 1:27 pm)

Replying to: Indian4Rider (Dec 05, 2008 11:48 am) Follow-up: Located and tested actuator motor under battery tray; tested fine w/Mighty-Vac - held steady for over 30 sec with zero vacuum drop. Also determined that there is 12V at the pigtail (switch?) where the cable from the actuator enters the transfer case. Took it out on the road and still no joy. With the truck in "D" moving fwd at idle as per owners' manual, NOTHING happens when the 4HI button is pushed - no click, clunk, hiss or anything I could hear. Looks like the truck's got to be on a lift to check vacuum at the actuator with the battery in place.   There must be a switching valve and maybe a relay somewhere to control the vacuum to the actuator. Anybody know where the clever folks at GM hid it?   Eager for suggestions...

#363 of 374 Need Help on Replacement Shocks: 1999 S-10 w/ ZQ8 by jae5 Feb 26, 2009 (5:12 am)
Good day everyone,   I am looking to replace the shocks on my rig. It's a '99 S-10 (4.3L, auto, reg. cab-short bed) with ZQ8 suspension package. I was wondering if anyone here replaced their shocks on their ZQ8-suspended truck and if so:   Which shocks did you use Where did you get them Cost   I've checked a couple of places like Rock Auto, Edelbrock, Summit (gateway from the Edelbrock site) and GMPartsDirect but it they are hella-expensive (especially if I go with the AC Delco replacements ).   Also, was wondering if anyone has replaced the oil cooler lines and if so:   How difficult of a job was it Any special tools / tricks & tips needed Specific steps / procedures needed to be followed Am I better off taking the truck in to have it done   Thanks everyone   JAE Replies to this message: jpf (Mar 23, 2009 5:37 pm)
#364 of 374 Cruise Control by gabhanjacisa Mar 16, 2009 (6:24 am)
1989 Chevrolet S-10 Blazer 4x4 (originally 4.3 replaced by a 2.8). The cruise control used to work intermittently, it would stay on for a few miles, then shut off, then I could get it back on, etc., etc. Had the turn signal switch replaced last year by a very good mechanic, however the cruise control has not worked at all since then. So, where do I start and what do I do and what am I looking for? Any help is appreciated. I know a little about cars, enough to make me dangerous, I guess. On a scale of 1-10, how hard would this be for me to get into and possibly fix without screwing things up. And, I am not interested at all in removing the cover to the steering column and getting inside there. Thanks, Jeff
#365 of 374 S10-won't run on its own by me1237 Mar 22, 2009 (6:41 am)
I have a1996 chevy s-10 4 cylinder pickup. I went to start it the other day and it started right up but to keep it running you have to keep your foot on gas. The minute you let up it dies. It won't idle in neutral. I was hoping someone might have a clue as to what the problem is or where I should start looking. Thank you.

Replying to: jae5 (Feb 26, 2009 5:12 am) I had a 2000 S10 extended cab with the 4.3 V6 that had the oil cooler lines replaced. I had a GM dealer do the work. It cost about $300 parts and labor. It's the kind of job that you don't want to put off becuase if the line breaks then you'll lose your engine oil. Good luck.

Replying to: rydogg (Jan 08, 2009 8:23 pm) More than likely the Vacuum Actuator under the Battery tray is not working or the cable that goes from the Vacuum Actuator to the axle is bad. It could be that one of your wheel hubs have bad bearings and need to be replaced for the axle to mesh with the hub. Replies to this message: halser (May 27, 2009 10:29 am)
