Replying to: sgagner (Jul 02, 2007 2:55 am) There are a dozen or so broken speedometer posts in the Blazer maintenance discussion but no real solutions that I saw in a brief skim.   One post points to the speed sensor:   ultragb, "Chevy Blazer GMC Jimmy Maintenance and Repair" #1663, 24 Oct 2005 9:34 am   You can use the Search This Discussion box in that discussion to read the rest of the speedometer posts.

Replying to: sgagner (Jul 02, 2007 2:55 am) Is this the digital dash - assume so as 94 was last year and many problems with them and the circuit card so look online and several sites rebuild it for about $150 US.

#112 of 166 Help with inaccurate fuel gage. by lineman052 Sep 03, 2006 (8:55 pm)
I just got a 2000 GMC Jimmy, SLE. I had it about a week and when I fill it it never goes below 1/2 full. I have about 500+ kilometres on the trip meter and sometimes when I turn it on it goes to empty then the low fuel light comes on. Once I start to drive it goes back to half full. I need some direction to look for a cause. Thank you for any and all help.

Replying to: lineman052 (Sep 03, 2006 8:55 pm) Most are simply due to the crappy sender in the tank part of the pump assembly - Delco pump ranges from $300-400 and then have to drop tank to install. My 01 does same type thing randomly so I use the trip odometer to make sure I get gas - I'll fix when I really get pissed at it. You can try to clean the electrical connectors on the output on top of the tank reached by dropping the spare tire and reaching up - tight fit - and make sure the ground is good but my guess is its the sender. A resistive swing arm type.

Replying to: lineman052 (Sep 03, 2006 8:55 pm) The most common problem for this occurance, is your entire Fuel Sending Unit. Theres a float arm that reads OHM's, and well, over time, the metal slide plate inside the tank, on the unit itself goes bad.   I would recommend a stock DELCO unit, but you can get aftermarket units for fairly cheap.   Another place you can buy a fuel sending unit is from a guy in florida, who runs a very reputable EBay store. I've bought many S10/Blazer parts from him, and never had any problems. He is a really good guy.   Heres a link to his store - S10 Warehouse   Keep in mind, that when you install the new unit, to be very careful with the arm when your putting it back in. THEY ARE VERY SENSITIVE...   -- Cheers, "KuT" Replies to this message: thatsmrsavana (Nov 17, 2006 8:40 am) repairdog (Nov 17, 2006 1:31 pm) gothsnob (May 03, 2007 9:59 am) repairdog (May 03, 2007 3:09 pm)

Replying to: indikut (Sep 24, 2006 3:09 pm) I have had a 99 and 2000 Savana, both with this same issue. I've researched the internet to find 1000's of complaints, but very few to GM. People need to call GM and complain! Then maybe they'd figure out there's a problem. Without data from customers, GM won't do squat for those of us that do call them. They assume there's no problem because few people call and complain. Even if you do it yourself or go to an independent mechanic, call GM customer service 800 462-8782 and tell them your issue.

Replying to: thatsmrsavana (Nov 17, 2006 8:40 am) Yes, lots of problems on these type and many run the gas down to empty every tank and then that heats the pumps up even more (if submerged they run cooler) and the gage was a bad design too and all 1 piece unit. Good luck.
#117 of 166 Steering Colum Problems by mnichy Nov 28, 2006 (6:01 pm)
I have a 91 GMC Jimmy S-15 and the steering colum is loose at the wheel tilt. It wiggles and moves up and down no matter what position. No one seems to know how to repair this problem or know where to find instructions on this repair. Please help.
