Ok. So after contacting some GM Electrical engineer/designers and going over wiring diagrams and other various options. We came up with a formula that seemed to work on diagnosing AND fixing the problem. The dubbed it with the acronym KISS (which they explained was KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID) It was...

I have ENOUGH aftermarket relays, lights and___ under the hood I don't need to add more if I don't need to. :lol:

Been there done that Scotty Boy. :thumbs: One of the BEST easy mods to do. I LOVE IT!. I did it on the passenger side several years ago thanks to DV2000NJ 's how to. :cheers: Hoping I have Sunday off and going to tear in to it.

Thank you kind robot. :thumbs: I think I have some diagrams saved (and I have the Chilton's too although it's the "new" cheap version that is basically a Haynes) If you have specific to lights that be appreciated if ya have time otherwise I can look too. In reality what I planned was just...

Thanks Draenor, Here's what i had done before the post to track down /eliminate probs. My ENTIRE driver's side doesn't work. I took a regular 9005 and 9006 plugged them in to the sockets and nada. I swapped the driver's and passenger fuses. Driver's side (with pass. fuse) nothing Passenger side...

I know right? :dunno: It's driving me crazy it "just went" like that and I can't figure it out.:eek:

Appreciate it. :thumbs::cheers:

i'm not sure how much info I need to include that's pertinent to my problem but, I will try to condense. I was working on my '02 Silvy (replacing the overflow tank) I used the headlights after dark for the last 2 nuts of the air breather box. The next morning I got pulled over for no DRIVER'S...

Never disabled DRLs never had them come on since day one of owning the truck like 4-5 years ago. :dunno: Yep grounded the yellow wire. As for the HIDs I have 4 ballasts 1 per light. I just plugged into the factory socket. I have been running the lows for at least 2 years no probs. I might...

I have the older Samsung 10.1 Tablet but, thanks for the suggestion. That might be a good idea to keep something in the truck more "permanent". :cheers: Looking like between $35 and $45 at wally world. :thumbs: Jim

Thanks gents. :cheers: I was leaning that way. I want to say in the reviews of the blue tooth gadget someone said even though the companies aren't related, BAFX Products suggests Torque Pro in a hand out that comes with the gadget. I did read some reviews that said TouchScan was...

Sorry I'm a dumbass drperry. I KNOW better to post my year. :loser: It's an '02 Silverado. Maybe I was doing something else that caused the fuse to blow but, I was thinking it was that reverse polarity BS. :dunno: I have to fix my volt meter to track down a parasitic battery drain also...

Thanks Penguin. :cheers: I just figured it as cheaper this way in the long run for when/if others go out. probably coulda/shoulda just gotten 2 and went from there but that ship as sailed. :lol: Jim

so I ordered a BAFX Products® - Bluetooth OBD2 scan tool off of Amazon. I've read several reviews and it seems it's a toss up between TouchScan and Torque Pro. Do ya'll favor one over the other or have a better alternative? They both are about $5 each but, it seems Torque Pro has more plug...

My question is do the 97-04 Camaro Trans Am Corvette GM Ignition Coils give a better spark then the ones in the same year (s)/engine as the Silveardo vortecs? I'm just curious as I was told they did. :dunno: I'm hoping I didn't fWONk myself but, I have 2 coil packs failing my friend gave...

So I believe awhile back I posted this question but I will ask again. (If there is a thread I apologize I will look also:thumbs:) I did the highbeam mod quit some time ago but, when I try to incorporate all 4 HIDs I blow fuses. (due to the groundeing I guess). :dunno: Has anyone successfully...

Thanks for the input gents. :cheers: We'll just call it a tire issue. I backed out of the work parking lot turning right as I turned left pulling forward load pop and tire blew. All under 2 mph so I'll be thankful for that. Just pissed/upset at myself or "whatever" for not seeing...

Hey Ya'll I haven't been on in some time. Been going through and STILL going through some bad times in my life. I had a unique problem Friday I THOUGHT was all to familiar but, strangely wasn't. I was on the way to work going around a slight curved on ramp. When the front end started shaking...

I did the 4-high mod a while back on my '02 Silverado then I added HIDs to the low. Worked great BUT, when I added HIDs to the high no go. I tried a few things but, wasn't sure how to get it right. :confused: With the relays and the whole reverse polarity and then having the low beams...
