Replying to: kabak (Aug 05, 2008 7:32 am) I just comeback from the garage and I think that my problem is near to be solved.   for find the resistor ( trial blazer 2002 cj2 )   between the floor and the glove box you have a panel ( two screws to remove ( 7mm )) behind you will find two things the resistor and the motor   check the motor first... remove 3 screws ( 5.5 mm ) and with cables directly to a 12 v battery if the motor don't turn it is dead   after, check if you have power out of resistor ( with a light tester, start the car and push the blowers buttons, the light may be burn too ) mine was ok.   here you see the panel ( in small ) the resistor ( my model ) and at the right top of the photo you have a part of the case of the motor ( 3 screws 5.5 mm )   Replies to this message: kabak (Aug 11, 2008 4:45 pm) tblazed (Aug 24, 2008 7:48 pm)

I,m assuming the A/C and transmition lines are next. We are getting rid of this vehicle ASAP. Other problems so far: Replaced the steering rack, cooling fan, water pump, front wheel bearings, and all four brake rotors. I have a 2003 EXT with 65,000 miles.

Replying to: kabak (Aug 06, 2008 2:32 pm) finaly, I was curious to see if the motor was so dead as it appeared !   I opened the motor and surprise ! many black dust and a bit of rust   the little room where the spring extend was dirty ( 1 ) , I cleaned and slided the carbon many times,   probably, it was why only one carbon was touching the center ( # 2 piece )   I rebuilded the motor ( a bit difficult to put the carbons at the goods places ) and tested directly on a battery ! the motor is still running !   Replies to this message: tblazed (Aug 24, 2008 7:48 pm)

Replying to: slm9976 (Jul 25, 2008 9:01 pm) Yes, I have a 2003 TB and the seat will not move forward or backward, just up down and the back rest moves. Had it from day one. At one time had a loose cable assembly under the rear carpet, had a pinched wire. I had several issues , power going to the instument cluster was intermitent. Seat worked for one day, not to work again. Very strange problem. I have had no luck finding issue.
#531 of 533 Passenger side window by woc Aug 18, 2008 (1:04 pm)
My window goes down, but only up 4 inches from top then stops? I believe someone tampered with window, trying to break in to car. Any ideas to repair?

Replying to: kabak (Aug 11, 2008 4:45 pm) Nice work on the illustration! And congratulations fixing the motor.
#533 of 533 2003 water pump removal - need spcl tool? by vargo Aug 30, 2008 (12:14 pm)
I've only got 38K miles on my trailblazer but the water pump is history. I would rather not take it in to get it fixed so I purchased a new one. Now I realize that maybe it is something I should not try to do myself. Do you have to have a special tool to take off and replace? Do you have to remove the fan shroud first? Should I take it in to someone else?   Thanks, Dan
