So the other day i got in the truck and it was dead. Jumped it and good to go. About 3 days later same thing. Once it started I got in the truck and realized none of the lights were working. Headlights, overhead lights, even the dash lights wouldn’t come on. I’ve learned in the past it usually is the TBC fuse. So I pull it. Bam it’s blown. Easy fix… so I thought. I went to put another fuse in and it blows the second it makes contact. Even 30a fuses blow instantly. I know it goes directly to the BCM on my year model and I’ve inspected wires all over my truck and I cannot find a wire that’s grounding out. I dont know if this is a coincidence but I also noticed that my switch button unlock/lock will locks both sides, but when I hit the unlock it only unlocks the passenger side, and the driver side does not make any noise.. so it’s not even attempting… i’ve checked all the driver lock and unlock fuses, and everything is fine. I even swapped them out just to be safe. I even pulled the door off and check the wires to go to the actuator and everything looked good. The real question is is it a chance that was going on with my locks is causing the same issue with the TBC fuse?

John Goreham Contributing Writer, GM-Trucks.com 7-24-2019 Ford has been working hard behind the scenes to develop the world's first mass-produced, mainstream electric pickup truck. That development is now to the point where Ford is ready to start showing off a bit. This week, Ford's chief engineer for the F-150, Linda Zhang, hooked up the test mule to ten double-decker rail cars. She then tugged that train 1,000 feet. To add a bit of drama, she then loaded up 42 F-150s into those rail cars and did it again. Clearly, electric trucks will be tow monsters. Ford is one of the best-positioned automakers to advance its fleet with electric drive. Ford is now a partner with not only Rivian, who is developing a luxury EV pickup, but also with VW. No other automaker has as much to lose by falling behind in the EV transition, and no other automaker seems better positioned to profit from EVs when they are finally ready for the masses.

2003 Silverado 5.3 4x4 Single cab long box 75,****** miles Just got some body work done to my truck last week. They replaced the hood and roof due to heavy hail damage. When I got my truck back I noticed a few things not working. Driver side door no longer turns off radio and dash lights with ignition off and door open but passenger door turns everything off. Dome light does not turn on, 3rd break light does not function anymore. Rearview mirror air bag indicator for passenger seat doesn't light up anymore. I've check basics like fuses pulled the headliner down to see if the wire had been cut. I haven't had time to dig any deeper but will plan to check to see if I have power at the connectors tonight. I really don't want rake it back and throw a fuss if it's something I can fix myself for cheap. -
Hi all. Long story short, I wired up my CB and dashcam to an open fuse in the drivers-side fuse block, and fried the whole thing. (Really!) Cost me a good bit to get it replaced. The dealer said I was drawing too much to tap in to there, and I should go to the engine fuse block instead. I've tested all the open ones on my truck (an LT) and didn't find anything with power with the key on. Does anyone know if any of the full ones are safe to pull? Or how are other doing it? Thanks in advance!

98 Sierra 1500 5.0 vortec 4x4 SLE ext cab 295xxx Ill try to keep this short, any help appreciated thx in advance. My front signal and head light started doing all sorts of weird things head lights flashing with 4 ways, left signal wouldn't work with head lights active. The interior lights where acting weird. Work sometimes. The cluster gage illumination would not turn off. And there was nothing to rear rail or third break lights. Also some funky noises coming from the combo light relay So I thought it was ignition harness, cluster,dimmer switch relay. All fuses where fine. But my cig lighter fuse keeps blowing. So I went to junk yard and grabs some parts. So I tested battery and all the grounds I could find and cleaned them. As a changed parts nothing changed. So I was checking the wire harnesses and found that on the wires that runs back to rear of bed on driver side frame was melted up in spot and arking against the frame. So I patched the wires. Now the truck wont start and no lights will work. If you press break peddle the signal light on cluster light up. But not actual signal lights and if u try to turn fan on it turns the signal lights on cluster on and as ur turn it up the lights get brighter and my interior light on driver side floor won't turn off. All fuses seem fine beside the cig fuse. I'm out of guesses. -
Chevrolet also confirmed that the Bolt will be developed with two goals in mind. A 200-mile all-electric range and a $30,000 price tag. While the production vehicle will share the concept's name, don't expect them to look exactly the same. The production version will most likely undergo some styling and functional changes before it goes on sale. The Bolt will be produced Michigan at the Orion Assembly facility. The company simultaneously announced a $200-million investment to get ready for Bolt production. Orion will receive $160-million for tooling and equipment while Pontiac Metal Center Facilities will receive $40-million for new dies. The Bolt will be produced at the same facility that currently produces the Buick Verano and Chevrolet Spark Chevrolet has not yet announced a model year or on sale target for the Bolt. General Motors Says Leveraging the industry-leading battery technology found in the Chevrolet Volt and Spark EV, the Bolt EV concept was developed as a game-changing, long-range pure electric for all 50 states, designed to offer more than a GM-estimated 200 miles of range at a target price of around $30,000.
