#16 of 24 Air Bag Light by shadyvol

May 26, 2008 (2:09 pm)

I have a 98 Jimmy (155k) that has had all the problems they come with. AC compressor, water pump, alternator, transmission, radiator, 4wd select, heater core, even suspention bumbers that seem to blow up.
 
Anyway, those are all fixed sort of. The 4wd select works in nuetral. the heater core decided to stop leaking.
 
My problem now is the air bag service light. Comes on for a while then goes off. Can do this between days at a time. Any answers for this?

you have a blown fuse. check the fuse panel by the drivers door panel around the top middle. You should be able to replace that fuse and be ok. I had a similar situation with my jimmy. I had 2 cell chargers plugged into the accessory and when I started my vehicle, the fuse blew. It took me some time to figure out the problem but my indicators were doing the same as yours.

#22 of 24 What is the Ind LTS switch do in my 95 GMC JIMMY? by username4rob

Ive bought a used 95 Four door GMC Jimmy off of a coworker for 500 bucks which has some issues. And i hope to figure them out sense I am a part time mechanic.... I know some of u r going to ask how thats possible or laugh at me... but I admit... Im not all that smart but I am trying to learn.... Moving on..... There is a switch in the center bellow the radio that has the writing "Ind Lts" above it. It seems whenever I do turn it on nothing happens... but maybe I am missing something I dont know.... Can you tell me what that switch is for?

I hate to revive an old topic, but I have the exact same problem with my 01 jimmy and was wondering if helpful2's response of checking for a blown fuse solved your problem. Or was there another solution that you found? I really don't want to have to replace the whole instrument cluster.

#24 of 24 01 gmc jimmy gauge issues by wulfie66

Dec 31, 2012 (9:51 pm)

I've got an 01 gmc jimmy that I'm having gauge issues with. The low fuel light is on, gas gauge is on E, battery light is on and temp gauge stays on cold. At first this was just a temporary issue, they would go back to normal operation once the cabin warmed up, but now they seem to stay on all the time. Am I going to have to replace the instrumentation cluster or is it something else?
