    Nothing wrong with your driving method doogie, you have your mind in the right place.
    The instruments were a red herring, it really throws you off the path dont it lol, ive had a few red herring times and its a good time to swear :D
    Those bloody thermal fuses are a dam pain, they pop because of a short overload and not overheating, ive had many an item that didnt work because the company buried one under the tape covering a transformer primary winding, the transformer got too hot because of the tape and enclosed design, bloody silly manufacturers lol.

    Thanks for the help, I treid to change mine . Got new one at NAPA. Didn't work. I went to my fav shop McDonalds Auto Repair Hebron Ohio and it was the small black relay that is next to it bolted on the wall right beside it. Chevy S10 2000. LOL the last shop that looked at it gave me a 2 hr estimate to look in the dash LOL.

    After removing the two screws from the side, squeeze the clips on the sides to release the HVAC head unit. I just got this 03 Blazer a couple months ago, and it's my daily driver with a bunch of little stuff to do. The two top clips must have been broken off before I got it, because all i did was remove the two screws and the top just kinda tipped itself forward just a little. I didn't even know that any of them were there. I figured the unit was just lodged against something because I was pulling pretty damn hard on the bottom, but I figured I should just stop before I broke something.
    The whole thing started because I wanted to install blue LEDs. I saw that the bulbs were much smaller than the ones in the instrument panel, but I have no idea what to get. I was able to get the top two out to maybe give myself a starting point, because I haven't been able to find those micro LED and socket combos by listing. They look just like the little blue sockets sticking out of the back of the HVAC head unit in this video. If anyone has any info on these, I'd appreciate it very much. I also have plans to do all the lights in the switches in led blue as well, like the headlight, 4WD, and the door panel switches, but things like the courtesy, dome and map lights are staying the way they are

    those small missing welds helped. can a dimmer switch replace the 4 speed switch? wiper noises made me jump.

  • @AbandonedExplorationUrbex1979

    I have a 2000 GMC jimmy SLS 2 door 4WD, my heat isn't coming on, the blower motor does work and blows but no heat most of the time. It starts to come on for a couple seconds then no warm or hot air. What could be the issue?

      When my blend quit working it was just a short cracked vacuum hose under hood at driver side top.

    • @RaoulThomas007
      @RaoulThomas007 Před 2 lety

      Look or listen for a vacuum hiss around the HVAC control switch or transmission fluid in the vacuum lines in the engine bay firewall area, on the driver’s side.

  • @ttconga143
    @ttconga143 Před 6 lety

    Could the coils in the video showing at the end, can that also be the problem for not having heat?

    • @ttconga143
      @ttconga143 Před 6 lety

      Or those coil are only for speed for the blower?

    • @DoogieLabs
      @DoogieLabs  Před 6 lety

      Jonathan only blower speed. If your coolant level is full and the blower worms, follow the heater hoses to and from your firewall. Inline with one of those hoses should be a valve that turns the hot water flow to the heater core on and off. Some cars dont have this, but I would start there.

    I don't know what fuse was bad on your truck but you did not show us and I have the same fuse out and the resister because it sounds the same

    • @DoogieLabs
      @DoogieLabs  Před 7 lety

      QsQuare55 AC / Heat Fuse. 30 amps. If I recall correctly it's located in the fuse center underneath the hood. I apologise for not showing the exact fuse location. hope this helps!

      Hirsch nope The issue probably lies in the positioning sensors on the fuel pumps float arm

    • @RaoulThomas007
      @RaoulThomas007 Před 2 lety

    Change my restior but blower motor still wont blow is there a fuse or regulator im missing. 87 chevy s10 pickup 4 cyl

    • @ptdave123
      @ptdave123 Před 5 lety

      check the connector that plugs to the relay,might check on connector that plugs into the resistor also, there is one wire that is too small of gauge wire for the load required by the motor. This causes the terminal on end of wire to heat up and melts the connector just a bit and causes a bad connection from wire to the resistor connector pin. I had to rebuild the connector and install a new terminal end to plug on to the resistor. Check this see if that might be your problem.

      Brian S. I know what you're talking about I believe it is this :
      www.ebay.com/itm/152141711407
      BUT I couldn't find one for my 2003 s10 Zr2 so I purchased this instead :
      ACDelco 15-72881 GM Original Equipment Heating and Air Conditioning Control Panel with Rear Window Defogger Switch www.amazon.com/dp/B000C9FHYI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_MPCizbAAN6DB4
      AND IT CAME WITH EVERYTHING NEW INCLUDING THE NEW VALVE, THE SWITCHES AND NEW LIGHTS FOR THE HOUSING. Hope this helps
