I had to replace a driver side headlight.  This required that you pretty much disassemble almost the entire truck, including the optional battery tray, 

the wheel well shroud, the entire grill assembly and the top part of the bumper ... AND the windshield washer reservoir bottle.

 

All done, all parts replaced.  But now the WASHER LEVEL SENSOR says there's "NO WASHER FLUID" .... but it's completely full.  Need to identify WHERE this sensor is ... and beat it with a large hammer till it works again.

 

But I can't seem to get the bottle OUT now.  All top bolts are out.  Can't see another one.   I need ADVICE as to WHERE that final bolt is under the bottom.   I see just ONE bolt, but

it doesn't SEEM to have anything to do with the water bottle.  If I take that bolt out, the engine just may fall out.   HELP!!

Double check and make sure you connected everything properly. Take your time.

 

Better yet, go have 1 or 2 bottles, go check after a rest. You will be like, why is that harness chilling by itself...

Pull the driver's fender wheel well out and turn the wheel either full left or right.  The tank will come out from the wheel well and not from up top.  

 

Should be a bolt at the bottom, one under the batt tray area and one near the top of the neck.  Level sensor is on the front side of the tank (behind the bumper).

      2007 Silverado classic Cooling fan running

      By Mistycool · Posted

      I am having similar issues.. 08, 4.8L granted I did had a fender bender and minor damage up front passenger side but I don’t think it had anything to do with it.. I had the high and low pressure checked and my fan for my radiator keeps coming on.. replaced the pressure switch and don’t want to keep throwing parts at it. I did have some minor problems here and there like on long road trips sometimes the ac would get a little warm and then on the highway as soon as I give it a little gas or get a little heavier on the petal it started running cooler. Never had an issue with the ac besides the here and there.. but I also started having issues when I fuel up now it takes a bit to start ( super embarrassing) it runs fine and once started ( only happens after fueling up) starts fine any other time. Could they be related?

      Spent a small fortune on fuel this weekend.   $6.69 diesel, 18 gallons of that. $6.99 92-octane ethanol free, 10 gallons of that for yard machines $5.59 87-octane for one of the cars, 11 gallons.   $250+ and I didn't even get a tug.   Hormuz ain't Hormuzin again, did not see that coming...LOL

      Auto start stop disable

      Appreciate the advice. I've watched multiple videos. Most showing the most complex for those that have a center console, to one that showed maybe 2 pieces of trim being removed, like 6 screws, pulling back the screen and switch assembly, and installing the inline module. And this was a new/newer Silverado. That didn't look too bad. All the others show alot of trim pieces that need to be removed. I've broken those kind of tabs/clips on my C8 Corvette trying to get to the battery, and that was a lot less clips than what I think is involved here after watching multiple videos and looking at my dash today. I have one on the way. Called a reputable stereo place about installing it and got a "minimum" price of $175. Ouch! Looking forward to seeing what the instructions have to say.

      Ac not keeping up

      Hard to say what the issue might be. Anything from the ability to cool the AC condenser up front, to blend door issues in the HVAC unit, to refrigerant charge, to compressor issues or issues in the lines.   Report back what the techs find on the 29th.   GM has service publications which list acceptable vent temperatures and AC pressures at given ambient temps and humidity. They probably won't touch the system if it's operating within those ranges.   I'm also surprised to hear your 2024 with the L8T is still using R134a? I was pretty sure the HD's had switched to the new refrigerant around 2020.
