Hello all,

I have a 2003 Silverado 2500HD Crew Cab and just noticed that the vent mode doesn't work. I picked up the truck in Summer and only used the A/C but now that it's getting colder I noticed the defrost and feet didn't work. It has the Dual Automatic Climate Control System and usually I just hit Auto and let it do it's thing but when I tried to override it to clear up a foggy windshield I notice nothing happened. Aside from that it works great.

 

Anyone have any ideas?

 

Thanks in advance!

IF THAT is what it turns out to be then you can do it if you are really familiar with taking apart the dash and whatnot and can take an entire day doing it right, other wise take it to a dealer. This is only if that is infact what your problem is, but me, I think it's kinda funny that all the mode actuators would fail at the same time.

2001Silverado364 is right ,IF that is the failure. Any shop with a scanner capable of monitoring HVAC data could diagnose this. Check for HVAC door motor counts going crazy when commanding a temperture or mode change(your case a mode door change.)Not too bad to get to, behind the glovebox compartment, mounted with 7/32 screws.HTH.

      Help purchasing a touch screen digitizer

      By mark249 · Posted

      Brought my 2015 Colorado into the dealership to check my touch screen issues, had that ghost touch thing happening. They said I needed a new touch screen and they could either order me one for $500. The lady at the service deck was nice enough to tell me I could order a touch screen online for less, she did stipulate that the touch screen had to be factory OEM, you can't pair an aftermarket screen to my radio seeing it was 2015, it had to be a GM factory OEM only. I found a few on Amazon and Ebay by the numbers on the back of the old screen, DJ080PA-01A GM# 22740886, Some said "OEM" in the description and others just said "Replacement". Would a replacement be the same as a OEM as long as it had the same numbers on the back of the screen? In some of the descriptions they also show different brand names but same numbers, is that an issue?

      I have both but typically use the 4 legged walker (wheels on front, ski's on back).   The four wheeler is starting to be used on "longer" outdoor walks.  The 4 legged walker is particularly helpful in practicing good walking posture.  Both of my knees are at different stages of recovery and I'm trying to not develop poor habits.  I can actually manage with a cane but it's very difficult not to favor one leg over the other.  My PT recommends I continue with my 4 legged walker for a while.  Yesterday was four weeks since my last knee replacement and I'm excited about my progress to date.  It has been a hell of a rough journey so far but it is exciting to witness  systematic and continuous improvement.  I went for years watching the decline of my "mobility".  It seems that everyday now I am alerting my wife to something I can do now that I couldn't a day or two ago!  I encourage anyone facing the prospect of knee replacement to share any concerns with others who have had the surgery.  It isn't an instant fix but rather is a considerable amount of short term pain for long term gain.  Recovery time and pain levels vary for individuals post surgery but the end results are typically very positive and I've never encountered anyone regretting having had the surgery.

      The lifter issue can be dealt with by shorter oil changes and quality oil IMO.

      Wiring Help, Please

      By Core-Lokt · Posted

      I'm putting in an A-pillar pod/gauges, and I'm asking if anybody can identify a (preferably) fuse for a switched power and illumination circuit on the driver's side interior fuse panel. Offhand, everything I checked with a test light was constant-hot, and I'd much rather uses a piggyback fuse. I can certainly find a wire, but I'd rather not half-tap.   Thanks in advance for any help.
