Wasn't aware of a relay under the dash. Thanks, both of ya, that makes sense. I was thinking about when I last had the dash cover piece that just pops on and off removed and had trouble with that harness going to the headlight switch so left it connected. There are 2 ILLUM or COURTESY wires...

Tell me if this makes sense: If I am plugging in the CTSY fuse it restarts the timer till off or ignition. With a door open it should remain on, however it does not. I have tested both driver and passenger doors and neither allow the light to remain on. I either got very unlucky and both...

Where did you order the overheard console from? I wanna put one in my truck as well. Good luck with the back fusion and the truck. Myself and Cousin of same age both need the fusion, but refuse to be cut on lol Deranged

From a quick google it looks like ADD is right, resistor issue. I would also check for the melted connection behind the glove box, if that is messed up it could be what's blown and continue to blow the resistor. At least I would guess it would. Deranged

1996 C1500, Dome and Cargo lamps have stopped working. Steps I have tried: 1. checked all fuses, all show good 2. replaced bulb, no effect 3. checked all relays, all good Odd thing is, the CTSY fuse 20A in the interior fuse panel is good, but if I remove the fuse and put it back in I...

ya, I was hoping for a couple of screws and a connection but what I found was damn near removing the steering wheel, etc. I have it working normal again today after a thorough soaking of everything I could get my hands on the other night. See how it decides to stay. Deranged

Nice! Thank ya very much Will. I will definitely give that a go and see how it works. I am really hoping that is all that was spilled in it, soda... Was able to use a small knife and dug some of it out last night, so I will stick with that story lol Deranged

The CC button to set speed was apparently soaked in soda before I had it given to me. I have used electrical lube, similar to a WD40 but protects electrical connections and even considered switching to a much stronger "degunker". After bathing it in the lube/mild degunker over night I will get a...

Thanks man, ya it's definitely not a vanity project I had in mind. Well, not just a vanity project lol. Unless I have half a ton of crap in the back I don't think it should sag, nor should the front unless there's a problem. I did find a few worn out bushings when I was under it today doing the...

I appreciate the info. Will do some research in to that as well. Gonna have to put this on a longer hold than previously considered. Or, maybe I can hire a pair of midgets to ride in the engine compartment and "lift" certain areas to make it look normal lol Deranged (Ya, it's not just a name... )

intake, sound better? give a sick boy a break lol... thought the C in the 1500 meant it wasn't 4wd, just thought I'd reiterate it though. What the hell does the C stand for? Deep thoughts... Well damn, I just wanted to be able to sit in my truck and not start rolling down hill when I lean over...

I meant to take pics earlier, it's in the rough stages paint wise, and the only reason I have considered the leveling kit is because of the drastic front to rear slope that it has. Once I start looking further into it, I may just find that the struts or shocks are going out and by replacing them...

Nice, thanks again for the great information. These are all things that don't cross my mind when I think lift. Glad you guys are here to help me have my head wrapped around it completely. I had a feeling, that if I wanna do it right, it's gonna be a bit more of an investment than my initial...

Starting to make sense now. Found a video that was what I needed to grip this. So, by using the torsion key remover tool NOT THE C CLAMP version lol, I can remove the torsion bar from the torsion key and drop it out, replace with new torsion key and reverse the process. Is it really all that...

I don't get what exactly the torsion key does tho. It looks like it is a tool that you use to turn a bolt, does the key itself actually install? Are the varying leveled blocks what sits on the frame? Gonna look some up. Ways off from this project, but I like to do my research months out if I am...

ha ha... well if yous all wanna come down and repair this doomahickie for us that'd be fine too. I will look that up RI, didn't even consider having to replace the rear springs, but now that I am thinking about it, it definitely can't hurt considering it's 18 this year and most parts on it are...

Thank You! Now it makes sense. I had it in my head that I was looking for something else. This makes perfect sense. THanks! I will add that ground tonight or in the morning and read up on that link as well. Thanks for the info guys, definitely humbled to be around so much knowledge. Deranged

My 1996 Chevy 1500 is starting to look her age in the front and sagging to her knees. I want to put on about a 2 inch leveling kit to bring her back to life on the straight and narrow. I don't know much about lifts or leveling kits, so if yall could kid glove me in the right direction I would be...

As far as sound goes, the Flowmaster Super 44 and Super 50 (if I remember right) are the 2 loudest in their line. I have the 44 coming around Wednesday for my Chevy and will try and update when it goes in. It's supposed to be so aggressive that they sell them cheap because you will need to spend...

Ooohhhhh, a rant thread! Was just doing this out loud and can't find any of my dogs. Started changing the plugs, wires, rotor and cap on my 96 1500 yesterday. The more crap that Chevrolet was able to put "in the way" they did apparently. So, I just started pulling out stuff that I probably...
