Steps get removed. The modules are mounted in a bracket on the driver side running board.

Since the Control circuit is the Low Speed GMLAN, there is no error that come up when removed. You will have open connectors though once connected so you’ll want to cover that from the elements and shorting something out. If you can remove the harnesses that goes between the driver and passenger, that’ll help the next person install it easier.

Xenawise is there any chance you are able to provide a link to where you pulled this image from? I am looking for part #7 and can not find it anywhere online or even a part number.

Here is a parts book blow-up of the system. Does not show all of the mounting points but #19 and #26 are the main bolts. #4 is the frame that all these bolts will go through.

Same question here... one of mine has started leaking and I am out of warranty.  I've been looking for part numbers, but can't seem to find them anywhere (online).  Anyone have a parts breakdown?

I have a 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 and I need to replace the motor on the driver side retractable assist step. The motor will run but the step will not swing out. I can move it manually so it appears that the gear drive mechanism inside the motor may be stripped. Does anyone know where I can purchase a replacement motor?

Easiest is go to your dealer parts counter and get a quote or part number for the motor. They can tell you if its even sold separately or if you have to buy an entire assembly. Once you get the part number, search online. My dealer surprised me a few times by having a better parts price vs GMpartsDirect, ShopChevyparts, etc. They always tack on a big shipping charge to their low advertised price.

I have removed my sliding running boards but the rod that comes out of the motor in the front. Is there anyway of removing that or pushing it up so it won’t show? The rod in the back I was able to push up so it can be hidden.

I have removed my sliding running boards. But I was seeing how I can remove the rod that the running board attached to from the motor. I was able to push the rod in the back up to hide it from viewing.

Hi,

 

I just want to remove the running board from the swing arms to lubricate the pin that swivels as they open. There is a bit and plate on tye bottom but how do you remove the pin. The step plate needs to come off or something

I recently purchased a 2018 denali ultimate that the previous owner took the steps off of. When I purchased the truck I was given the steps with it. I put them back on and they will not do anything. I've checked everything I can think of, the fuse, the connections, I have tried unplugging the battery, and also the button under the radio. Everything is plugged correctly and in there correct spots. Wondering if anyone else has any Idea besides bring it to the dealer. Thanks!

      I did the new thermostat after doing a 'flip' for a year. Runs as cool one way as the other in the summer but in the winter there is a bit of a floor. Yellow with the new 70 C thermostat. My data over the life of the unit to date. Still need more cooler. Anyway that floor helped both winter fuel economy and shift quality in the winter. I found it a good balance.

      Evan Williams Bottled in Bond   So pouring the last of a bottle of Evan Williams Black label last night I set off the the state store for a refill only to be denied the by an empty shelf. Rats.    What the did have was a bottle of Evan Williams Bottled in Bond. 100 proof. Hum, a few bucks more but a known distiller. Lets have a swing at it. ( I have before )    Cracked it open and pour a serving over ice. Hum.... more heat, yes. More alcohol naturally. But the barreling not the proof brings the taste and this one came up short.    Oh is was familiar but the heat ran the barrel over like a Peterbilt runs over a squirrel. Could use a heavier toasting of the oak me thinks or perhaps a longer barreling. Who knows. But what I can say is ice or a water back isn't the answer. What kills one kills them both. Sad. It is a pleasant drink....if you have little to compare it to.

      Bridgestone vs Goodyear tires?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      I've had exactly one set of Bridgestone. Lasted five year and 125,000 miles and had I known better 15oK would have been a cake walk. I would have bought a like set had they not tripled in price since the first set. I removed them at said mileage with 5/32" remaining in dead even wear all four. They were fuel efficient, quite, comfortable and predictable.    Early on I got a very good alignment checked at least once a year, sometimes twice; kept the tires properly inflated, balanced and rotated. And I've found that many a tire issue can be avoided with great maintenance practices. Lot's of tire dealers will do rotation and balance (simple) for free for as long as you own the tire they sold you so no excuse not to.    Bead prep, alloy integrity and stem health have a huge impact on inflation stability. There are more mountings done poorly that perfectly. Finding a good tire guy is gold and as important as finding a tire you like.    That 3X price increase now two sets of "other tires' later is starting look like a bargain.      Bad maintenance kills more tires than bad tires.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      Atlas, you kill me As aggravating as a project like this can be you have been unable to hide your fascination with learning and using that angst against this beast like a Ninjitsu Master. It amuses you, admit it now.      BTW, love your writing style. 😉
