I think you are 100% right. When i jump start my truck from my other car, the voltage meter in the dash shows the needle near 13 volts, whereas the moment i take off the jumper cables the truck dies there and then. It sounds that the alternator is going bad. Thanks for the feedback and i will keep y...

Qamar

Hi Guys Today my subject truck battery died. I had replaced a new battery (AC Delco) a month back. So now i have tried to jump start the truck with my another car. Well the truck takes a start, but when i remove the battery cables and put the truck in D Drive, the engine dies again. Well after that ...

Qamar

Sorry nothing new todate....

Qamar

You are right in saying this, The Blazer has the glove box right about where the other models have the airbags.

Well I am trying and will reach at some conclusion. What ever i will get will post the same so that others could also get the benefit.

I really want to thanks all of you for your feedback.

Qamar

I have opened all the screws. There is no connection of glove box interior with that. After removing all the screws, one can feel that the glove box cannot be removed at any cost. I have tried also to have an acess through the relays, as are seen in the pics, but that effort was also fruitless. It a...

Thanks Jeff for pasting them on the concerened page

Jeff

I have mailed you three pics taken just now of my truck glove box. The issue is that i dont find as how to open it so that i can fix hot feet issue.

Qamar

I have tried by following your instruction none of them are working.

Qamar

Pl guide me as how to get it done. I can then send you the pic of the glove box.

Well my truck dont have the wire loop, and I dont have the manuals also. Well it is very difficult to reach that part of the glove box wherein one could fix up the hot feet issue in my truck which i have told you that it is 1996 model.

Qamar

Dear Malkivin You mind in guiding me as how did you opened the glove box of your S-10 1995. I have 1996 model S-10, and can't open the glove box. Have tried twice but could not get to the upper photograph given in this tread. Will be greatful if you could guide me step by step. Thanking you in advance

Qamar

The Alternator while cold is putting out 13.5 and when hot with with load of AC and head lights is giving 12.2 or 12.3. So do i need to get it opened and change the brushes in it? The bearing appears to be fine. The truck has done 87000 Km only.

Qamar

Thanks for the info

Qamar

Ok i will first of all check the connections of the battery and the alternator. Well can you guide me as how to tighten the serpintine belt? Is it done through the adjuster bearing sort of thing?

Regards

Qamar

Hi Guys

Under the bonnet on the driver side there is a plastic ball mounted which has a main vacum line. The vacum line appears to be torn away with time. I am going to change it by the new one tomrow. Anyone who could tell me as what is the function this vacum pipe plays on?
Thanks

Qamar

The alternator of my subject truck is passing 12.2 Volts with AC/ Head lights on, witout that it goes to 12.3 volts. Anyone who could tell that is it fine or the alternator is dying slowly. My observation is that the dash lights during night time now appear to be little bit low, and the voltage gaug...

Qamar

Thanks for the prompt reply. Will see and observe how this alternator behaves.

Well I am anxiously waiting for the thing we had discussed. For an old truck you need to have lot of information

Thanking you once again for your feedback

Qamar

I wanted to thank you for the information you have provided. have changed the coolant as per your instructions. The truck is running fine. The only problem which i could feel today that my charging gauge was showing a readining in between its first mark and 14. It always use to be in the range of 13...

Qamar

You mean to say that while using the pliyer you had moved it to the anti clock position, or first you have to push the nob inside and then move it anti clock wise?

Qamar

Hi Guys I need to flush out the coolant from the system. For that shall be grateful if someone can tell me as how to drain the coolant from the raditor from its plug which is on the bottom passenger side. I am sure that thats the small nob which ought to be opened. I dont want to break it as i have ...

Qamar

Hi Guys

Nice information. My question is that my truck model 1996 SD-10, vortec engine, automatic is also having the same switch? I just wanted to be sure before it gets 2 late and major repairs are done due to one small switch

Qamar

Hi Guys

I need to change the right side rear brake light bulb. Any idea as how to open up the brake light compartment to change the bulb.

Thanking in advance

Qamar

I wanted to thanks all of you for your feedback.

Qamar

My subject truck for the last two days is not starting up. Meaning when i crank the engine, it appears the battery is almost dead. The question is that the colour shown in the AC Delco battery is Green. It is an indicator that the battery is fully charged. I had also cleaned and tightened up both th...

Qamar

Wonderful information. Will fix up the things and keep you updated.

Thanking you Henry once again

Qamar

Hi
Can anyone help me with pics and location of the EGR valve in my subject truck.
Thanking in advance

Qamar

No i have not checked the chilton or haynes manual. I dont have them neither have any clue about them.

I have checked all the corners in my glove box but dont get anything due to which it could be opened up. Maybe in this model the whole of the Dash board had to be taken off

Qamar

Likewise we were guessing that 1996 Blazer might be different then the 2001 and 2002 models. So your pic clearly tells me that in my 1996 Blazer there is no spring or wire sort of thing through which we could open the glove box. I am trying to get the information, even if i had to go to GM center i ...

Qamar

No problem. Likewise i told you earlier that you gave your best shot. Thanking you once again for your help. I am trying to search around through some good search engines. Maybe i get some information. If yes will post the same so that others can also get the benefit as and when they need it.
Regards

Qamar

Thanks. But i am still worried that your information might not be working on my 1996 Blazer, Automatic, V-6 , vortec engine.

Qamar

I still need help as how to open up 1996 S-10 glove box. I need to fix the HOT FEET problem in my truck once i can open up the glove box.

Any help with pics or instructions will be highly appreciated

Qamar

I think you are right. Mine 1996 Blazer S-10 must be different from your 2001 or 2002 model.

Well even then you gave your best shot.
Regards

Qamar

Thanks for your help. I have tried my best but could not make it up. Shall be grateful if you can support your info along with the pics.

Once again thanking you for the pain you are taking.

Regards

Qamar

Is this spring/ wire located near the glove box light (Bulb area) ? IS it before the bulb or after it. Or inside at the extreme Relay Area left hand upper corner.

Sorry for asking you again and again

Qamar

Today i had tried to remove the glove box for fixing the issue of hot feet in my truck. Had removed all the front screws of the cofront door of the glove box. Even then the inside plastic cover of the glove box never came out . So fixing the nut or plastic cap in the concerened vacum pipe is still a...

Qamar

Well i wanted to inform you that i had opened up the engine compartment and had pressed a switch on the top of the AC compressor. It clicked and settled properly on its place. After that there is no defect. Now whenever i switch on the compressor it gets engaged. Maybe during service that switch got...

Qamar

Hi This happened with my truck also. I have recently purchased 1996 model, v-6 vortec, automatic. I one my first day had put down the D/S window glass, but it never went back. All i had done was that I had sprayed W-D 40 around the concerened switch on the driver side which keeps the window rolling ...

Qamar

Hi Guys For the last two or three days when ever i switch on my subject truck Aircondationer (MAX AC or AC) the compressor is not engaged there and then. Yes when i run the truck for 4 or 5 minutes with the AC switch on, the compressor gets engaged after that and then later on there is no problem du...

Qamar

Qamar

My subject truck has done 86000 Km. Todate i have not changed the spark plugs. I am the second owner, and i am sure that the previous owner have not changed them. There is no missing/stalling/late starting etc. The fuel average is very good. If i have crossed the recommended period than what kind of...

Qamar

Most probably your raditor cap was changed by you well in time, so there were no air pockets in the system. Lucky You

Qamar

I think i will get this job by an expert but will keep an eye as per your guidelines.
Thanking you once again for info

Qamar

Well the new glass is very expensive. I have gone to the scab market. Have found the same glass in a good condation. Have seen that it will be attached with the silicon. Question is that the old glass is still with the old silcon on till. Will it stick down with the surface of the truck or we have t...

Qamar

Hi Guys Well its a bad news. Someone broke my subject truck passenger side glass. One which is on the extreme right hand side glass at the back side. I know the agency will fix it right. Wanted to get some information. Is it really difficult to get it back on its place. Some glues are involved in it...

Qamar

Excellent feedback. that really worked out. I had just removed the driver side bulbs and had used them on the passenger side. They are working fine. You were right in saying that Ladies do have the tendency of make ups and other things to do while they are on the passenger side. I hardly remember th...

Qamar

Will check out on the coming weekend & update you accordingly

Qamar

Great idea. Let me implement it. Will revert back and will keep you updated.
Best regards

Qamar

I appreciate the tip given by you that if the heater pipes are disconnected for good then there is no chance to cool down the engine if it gets hot due to any reason. So now i am going to leave the system as it is, but will keep a close look at the drop of coolant or any smell coming out in the cabi...

Qamar

i dont smell the coolant anymore inside the cabin, every since had washed the engine compartment thoroughly. Maybe it spilled over in the engine compartment during the flushing of the old coolant. Now if i want to disconnect the heater by taking off the two rubber pipes going from the engine compart...

Qamar

My subject truck passenger side sunshade mirror light (Bulbs) is not working. Anyone who have an idea as what could be the fault and how to get it fixed.

Thanking in advance

Edited title-HJ

Qamar

I think you are right. I never washed out the engine compartment with fresh water after changing the old coolant.
Secondly will also keep an eye on the passenger side carpet wetness.
Will update accordingly in a week's time.

Qamar

Yesterday while driving on hig speed on the main higway i could feel the coolant smell insude the cabin. Had checked the coolant level in the morning. It had also not decreased.

I have the plan to get it flushed out on a yearly basis. Its so chap and easy way to do it. Thanking yo...

I want to say thanks to Mr.Henry. With his guidance i have greased all the 11 pionts of my subject truck. It was a good experience. Bit difficult but got through. I am sure things are going to easy for the second time.

I need to change my coolant. For that i have removed the front shield. Could not find the raditor drain nut. Can anyone help out where it is located. Any help with the raditor drain nut pics will be highly appreciated.

You can well imagine that if Blazer is to me marketed in Japanese market then YOU have to have some solid features in it. I mean to say that it should be better than their vehicles. Everybody knows that TOYOTA and other Japanese cars are one of the hottest selling cars in the world, so to break thei...

Qamar

Thanks for the information.

Qamar

Anyone who can help me out in knowing the fuel filter location in my subject truck. I shall be grateful if the information given is supported by the pics as i am relatively new on this make and model.
