So I got bad pump. Leaked all over the place. Just got swapped it out and hopefully this one is good. Again man I appreciate how you show step by step! Helped out a lot!!
Thank you for this video!! My daughter put her car in a ditch in a snowstorm and snapped the shaft right out of her power steering pump!! Your video was perfect, a great help!! I really appreciate your thoroughness and detail!! :) :)
Great Video. I will have to replace my Power Steering Pump in the next few weeks. Seeing you do the job has given me the knowledge about the best way to go about doing the work
Third video I watched on how to replace the PS Pump and it was by far the best! I have no doubt I can do this now. Thank you for taking the time to make the video and post it. PS I liked the music :)
So I’m having trouble getting the pulley all the way down. It’s tough. Any tricks making it easier with a loaner tool like what you have? Thanks great video!!!
Once the pump is out you have easy access to the oil pressure sensor on the oil filter adapter. These often go out on the trailblazer. Heck, since you're already dirty you might as well do an oil change since the filter is right there.
i have a 05 trailblazer that needs a new pump. I have an 03 trailblazer also. so where I'm just swapping them . would I need the pully puller. I figured yes to install back to my car. but figured I'd ask. the U.S. for your time. also your video was very helpful. keep doing what your doing
You only need the pulley puller if you plan on taking the pulley off. If you're just doing a straight swap with pump and pulley, then you are in luck and you don't need the puller tool.
My 04 envoy started whining yesterday but its not hard for me to turn my wheel but I definitely know its the power steering but I noticed that the pulley was loose and was wondering if that meant the pump was bad or if I just needed to just replace the pulley instead of the entire pump?
If you hear whining that is an indication that your pump is going out. If the pulley is also wobbling you might want to just replace both at the same time.
Old question but thought I would answer for anyone looking in the future. Same thing happened to me and I needed to replace the whole pump and pulley. And in my situation had to replace the reservoir because the leak started in the reservoir, I waited to long and burnt out the ps pump. And then waited too long after the pump burnt out and caused damage to the pulley, and waited too long causing the serpentine belt to snap. Dumb, yes I know.
At Autozone, they have a program where they loan their tools to you. I just told them what car I was working on and that's the kit they gave me, but to my knowledge most pulley kits are universal. You're welcome, and thanks for watching.
Tyrone Reevers my power steering is whining weeks before it went out. Then one day as I was driving down the street it completely went out and it was extremely hard to turn. You can check it on the car to see if it's going out by simply taking the serpentine belt off and rotating the power steering pump pulley in your hand. If it's anything wrong you will feel it.

Good point wish I would have now then. Now, I have to get dirty again. Thanks for the tip and for watching.
Ok so rack been replaced, new pump, and it won’t turn at all unless I’m rolling while driving. Then it’s like no power steering. Any ideas?

Those 2 Trail blazers should have the same pulley.

I have a 2006 trailblazer LS an the power steering pulley is wobbling does that mean the pump is bad..

My power steering pump is on the other side can't figure out which bolts
the bar that the pulley pushes onto came out of the power steering pump. is the pump garbage now?
Yes, the power steering pump went out.
dang this pump is only 6 months old.
It should still be under warranty.
Liked the video especially about the pulley r&r. Music was distracting to me though..sorry
Where did you get the pulley kit from? Will any pulley kit work? Thanks!
At Autozone, they have a program where they loan their tools to you. I just told them what car I was working on and that's the kit they gave me, but to my knowledge most pulley kits are universal. You're welcome, and thanks for watching.
Good vid, just a mistake on min 11:15 you said return line to pressure hose
What was the brand of the pulley puller set you used?
It was from Autozone
Thank you for making this
You're welcome and thanks for watching.
THANK YOU!!!
how did you know the pump was bad to begin with. i have a loud whining when i turn the wheel. is that the pump
Tyrone Reevers my power steering is whining weeks before it went out. Then one day as I was driving down the street it completely went out and it was extremely hard to turn. You can check it on the car to see if it's going out by simply taking the serpentine belt off and rotating the power steering pump pulley in your hand. If it's anything wrong you will feel it.
oxmanagain were you losing any fluid from the reservoir during the whining weeks.
No I wasn't.
oxmanagain Thanks that was one thee best step by step A to Z video.I am having oil leak thu the power steering pump & im loosing oil prusher so do u need to change that pump?Please help I have alot of the car taken apart already.
If you are leaking fluid I would check to see if you rubber seal are intact and in good working order.
My pulley doesn't have the bump for the tool mine is flat
What did you use to pump out the fluid
It's called a fluid pump. I left a link in the description box under the video, if you want to see what they look like.
How do I put my pulley without the special tools
I don't think you can. And if you can it is definitely going to take a lot longer and be more difficult.
Great video!
Michael Habjanetz -thanks I appreciate it.
where does that silver bearing go..?
What part of the video are you talking about so we can be on the same page?
Seriously! Great vid except for that distracting S music. It's NOT needed and makes it hard to hear you and focus on what you're doing. Thanks for the great guide. Please leave the music out!
What's with a music man
Now how do i clear the code. The light wont go off
Jessy James I just use an OBD2 code reader to cancel codes.
Ok maybe the plug not in all the way i have 2006 optra. Its that ssps system. Sensitive speed powersteering light.
Thanks for reply
The music isn't necessary
