Replying to: lrj78 (Aug 09, 2007 7:03 am) I just replaced the heater core on my 2000 Jimmy. The repair manual from the auto parts store was no help. Before disconnecting power, move electric seats fully down and back for extra room. I saw no need to drain the coolant, since the core is higher than the rest of the system. There are several bolts holding the heat/vent module from the engine compartment side. One inside the a/c unit under the fan resistor panel, one about halfway down the a/c housing on the engine side, and the long torx bolt with a nut on it. I also broke the tabs on either side of the inside bolt and caused no harm. Use two people if possible to remove the dash. I caused a little damage to my instrument panel glass (plastic) and radio knobs. Replies to this message: mberube (Dec 29, 2008 10:10 am) tkeo (Jun 04, 2009 5:32 pm)

Replying to: Mac558 (Dec 02, 2008 1:24 pm) Do you have to remove the whole dash to do this? Can’t do it from underneath? I’m trying to fix my 96 jimmy…
