I've changed my blower motor resistor TWICE on my '06 GMC Canyon
You may want to change out the harness. Same issue but so far nothing after changing out the harness.

Mine has had all those issues and then some. Like the ground splice pack under the hood , broken wires in the rear door ext cab and leaking water into cab from high mount brake lights. And can't forget the abs sensor problems.
Correct my 06 Colorado has had 4 out of the 5 issues this was a 100% accurate video.
I agree even though my 06 Colorado runs fine i do have a check engine light. So far all I've done was change 4 spark plugs (delco-iridium)
My 2004 canyon has every problem in this video 😂😭
This video made me go right to the throttle body when I just got my used 2006 Canyon 3.5 liter and holy moly it was super dirty. Cleaned it and still had rough idle after doing the relearn process, especially at idle and with the ac on. Turned out the plugs were also really bad. Hope this helps someone save some $$$. Plugs are cheap, and I thought I had a bad electric throttle body. Never hurts to check/change plugs.
Sorry if this is an idiot question to ask but if someone was also needing to change those plugs what would I look for online? Plugs for 2004 Canyon? thanks
#6 the anti-theft system which won’t let the truck start at all
Yeah that part SUCKS
Dealing with that too and right front wheel bearing locked up abs sensor I guess
Check and make sure your driver side door is tightend that what was causing it on mine
I’ve actually delt with the security issue on many different vehicles
I have a 2012 with the 3.7 L 5 cyl and I’ve put 90k on it in the last 3 years. I’ve taken it into the shop once for a standard tune up. Never had a single problem with routine maintenance. Love this truck. Now an overland build but need more power. Literally my only gripe.
2012 with the 3.7 L 5 cyl here too with 211K on it. I've only had the blower motor resistor issue mentioned here. Mobil 1 full synthetic oil every 3k miles. The last year of a model produced, like ours are, seems to have fewer issues.
I got a 2010 Colorado single cab 4x4 as a work truck. It's been solid.
I had the same 5 cylinder truck and was a real piece of shit. The dealer couldn’t even fix its issues. Traded in that brand new piece of shit for a Toyota Tundra that has no issues.
I got all those issues in my Colorado 08 also the anti thef system and front suspension
As always, a good, clear, informative video. I wish you could do one on a 2006 Frontier.
+Rafael Marin Thanks for checking us out and the feedback! We'll add this vehicle to our list!
+Lobo Cua Thanks for the feedback!
My 06 has had 0 of these issues.
It has had two other issues:
P0449, Vapor canister vent/valve solenoid
Throwout bearing. Because I bought cheap.
My 2006 Canyon has been mostly good. I think in 2015 it needed a new head. They said the warranty wouldn't cover because of no oil changes. We beat them on that. You do not need receipts to prove you change the oil. The engine was too clean on the inside.
Also, since 2017, it's had a part time problem with not starting. I've tried different suggestions on fixing it. Have changed the Crank-shaft sensor, the Engine Temperature sensor and the Thermostat. It usually starts better in the Winter. Now I need to change its Water Pump. Old age creeping in! 🙂
Could be an anti theft issue. I believe my 06 is doing that now. Just won't fire up. But I wait 10-15 minutes and boom. Fires up first try.
#6 The spare tire. The lowering mechanism rusts under the truck and you can't lower your spare tire. Please check before any trips or periodically or you'll find yourself stranded.
Got any suggestions on how to keep it from rusting? I'd hate to get way out somewhere and not be able to get to my spare tire! 🛻🚥
@@roostercogburn3771 I would spray it with penetrating oil several times a year and also take it down and put it back. I keep mine spare in my box .
I've had 2 out of the 5 issues with this truck in the 4 yrs of ownership 2010 with 106k miles when bought 156k current.
Great! Thank you for checking out the video. If you need auto parts go to: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-Now
I have a 2012 Colorado LT2. The only problems ive had, i bought it with 50k on it, are as follows. Washer fluid motor took a crap, air pressure sensor failed, speed sensor failed (shortly after break job) and an intermittent chech engine light. Oh ya, a couple of the radio lights are out. It's been a great truck, I've put about 60 k on it now
If ur harness to the resistor ever goes out u can buy an airbag harness its the same connector just solid colored wires..
One good clue to fix some electric gremlins and failures like the blower and ac resistor is to fix the G105 and G106 ground terminals which cause bad continuity to the circuits
Thank you
Great video❤ Thaks man you saved me hundreds of dollars from the mechanics
the evap valve is a nitemare to find for the doit yourselfer .handy video thanks .
+Gene Sewell Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Yeah then you find that there’s an evap vent solenoid at the front that’s hard to get to
And then there’s that evap canister at the back so you will replace both is ur smart
Spot on!
I have a 2005 and it had the P0506 error. Pulled the MAF sensor and the TB unit off, cleaned them with their associated cleaners available at auto parts store. That fixed it.
That part near the gas tank, sure does look like that truck on this video has a lot of flaky rust on a metal piece there. My vehicle seems to not have this, luckily, so far. Is that truck from an area where there is a lot of snow, or ocean? I ask, mine is from the Gulf Coast, near the ocean, but I don't see that flaky rust (not yet) on it.
I do have a question about the associated solenoids for timing the exhaust, you mentioned when talking about the timing chain. Would those make a ticking sound when they start going bad? My truck doesn't always do that, but I was trying to figure out if it is that or if it is the serpentine belt tensioner going bad and making that sound.
Please, keep up with great videos, I greatly appreciate them. Thank you.
Hey guys.. I’d really appreciate the help if you can offer any. I have an ‘08 Colorado that has an inline fuse for the power seats (at least according to the wiring diagram.) and I can’t find it anywhere. Any idea where it may be?
The fuse in the actual under hood fuse box is fine. I just need to try and find that other fuse. Both my power seats stopped working and I think it’s very unlikely both motors burned out at the same time.
Thanks in advance!
One problem that I fixed on my 09 Chevy Colorado, was the passlock II. Stopped using the keyless remote.
Another problem that I fixed was the blower motor resistor. On the fan speed on the climate control system, I turned the knob to #3 of the fan speed and it didn't work.
1,2 & 4 works. I replaced the wiring harness with the resistor. It's working. Another problem is a leak on the driver's side floor board.
I need a new windshield cowl.
Bro I have the same issue with the fan not working on #3 setting and the same goes for the rust on the same spot same door lol. Passlocks also showing up for me too.
Just replaced my blower motor resistor yesterday. Was a pretty easy replacement, don't know why I waited years to do it.
I got one for you. If your cruise control ceases to work check your tail lights. Blew my mind! Read about it in a forum. Pissed around with those things for an entire afternoon. I read what I read three times. Could not believe it. Got out went to the back of the truck. Sure enough. I had a tail light out. Replaced the bad bulb and I got my cruise back. Go figure!
I wonder if it was intentional by some engineer instead of using some kind of idiot-light …..how else would you know ?
*knock on wood*
I currently have 208k on my 2012 Canyon; only issue I have is blower motor related. Originally it wouldn’t turn on, but if I was still hit a bump, it’d turn on. Soon found out if I hit the blower motor it would start working. Took it to the shop and apparently there was a tube that was full of gunk and this was causing water to build up in the blower motor. Over time this caused the motor to rust and when ever it would try to start the motor, it wouldn’t have enough power to start spinning, but if you hit it, it’s break it free/ move it a little and it would start up.
Now my current issue is the blower motor will suddenly turn off, then turn back on. I’ll be idling and doing nothing and it’ll stop, then it’ll kick back on randomly.
I’m taking it to the shop to get it checked again. I have a feeling it’s something to do with a loose wire because it only became an issue when it go super hot out (causing wires to potentially droop) and therefore lose connection.
Again *knock on wood* I haven’t had any serious issues. Most expensive fix was brakes. I would do them myself but it pretty much requires you to replace the hubs and since it’s already being taken out… might as well get that done. Luckily I came to a good deal with my manager.
Only other issue I have is the fact that from 04-12 they didn’t change anything, and I have a 2012 but it has 2004 technology. It doesn’t even have an aux port. Along with that the center console is plastic and sits kind of loose; this causes it to squeak a lot if you touch it/ put pressure on it.
My 2007 Isuzu I-290 has had all those issues at some point.
I have a video of the blower motor replacement on my channel if anyone is curious what it might it entail. I can personally confirm that is very common issue on these.
just shared to my friend who having issues with his canyon truck and no mechanic in our town has be able to figure out whats wrong with his truck, and keep replacing parts will nilly like and, even though they know the code have charged him a an and a leg so far and still unable to fix it and were talking well over a few thousand dollars and climbing.
I have a 2006 GMC Canyon and biggest problem I have had is wires in both back doors breaking. Can I get a new wiring harness replacement. Thanks
My father's 2012 Canyon has a V8, any info. The transmission does not shift correctly. Is there two shift solenoids or just one?
I'll repeat from JeffS below: The ext cab rear door wires for the seat belt retractors break over time due to too much flex when the rear door opens and closes - if your SRS light is on, that's probably the problem. The plastic quick connect fittings on the heater core outlets break off, luckily close to home, but wtf Isuzu? The worst was a heater core leak, but that was probably a fluke - cost me $66 and several hours, otherwise an $800 service.
Have a 2005 and the driver window and mirror controls are broken. Had a 2001 S-10 with the same issue.
Every vehicle has its issues; except that some vehicles have many more and more serious issues than others.
Thanks for watching! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-Now
So how about this specific vehicle? Are all these issues major repairs that cost a lot of money? I need to know because I'm looking at either this or a chevy colorado, or a dodge dakota. I can't afford a Toyota Tacoma.
@@angelozicarelli541 if you buy one of those others you will likely find out the hard way why Toyotas cost more
@@kevinbarry71 so the others need to be repaired more often? Is that what you are saying? The others are not as reliable as the Tacoma?
@@angelozicarelli541 yes, absolutely. There's a huge difference. Toyotas generally are all this way. And Chrysler and GM products are some of the worst
I have a P0017,Im replace a vvt solenoid,camshaft sensor as well and the code still there,thanks
I love 1A Auto they have out standing customer service and cheap priced parts but the parts are great quality
Thank you!
Bought a craigslist 2004 colorado 249,000 miles for $2,600. Fixed the blower motor Resistor, abs light on, now need to replace wheel bearing
Very good tips. 👌
+Manuel Reyes Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
I have a 2011 canyon it has an internal mode switch high voltage code I have no gear selection lights I have to start my truck with a button any ideas on this issue
My gmc has at least 3 out of those five conditions but none of the mechanics I take it to seem to get it right
I own one with 300,000km on it and I ignore the engine light.
I got 325k on mine, light is on for evap and I do the same
Thank you for checking out the video. If you need auto parts go to: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-Now
@@austink8215 i just bought a pretty clean looking chevy colorado LS 5cy with 350,000 miles on it. I purchased it for $2500. Lately ive been reading a lot of people say its not the best truck to get. Should i sell my truck and look for another year/model?
@@martian7110 honestly the engine and tranny never gave me issues. They're bulletproof. It's all the other cheap GM parts and electronics thatll go. I bought mine for $2000 at 310000km which is about 280000miles and had to put a few grand into misc parts and services. Itll last if you take care of it
I got 92k on mine BUT it’s not the original engine
Timing chains last longer, have you ever heard of the General Motors 3.6 L?
Exactly! Thank you for checking out the video. If you need auto parts go to: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-Now
If the HVAC is an Auto Dual Zone then it will be a module, not a resistor. The high speed fan setting gets a direct connection to the fuse block, always hot, but the fan motor on these makes the circuit with the ground switched. So to check the fan, find the wire with 12 volts, forgot which color, and ground it. If fan comes on full speed you know the fan motor is good. That’s also why some people (like me in my Burban) have problems with the fan staying on after truck is off. Mine would take a full five minutes to shut off, slowing very gradually until off. Strange, it seems the module goes bad and the ground disconnects slllloooooowwwly. Whatever. Also like he said some speeds might work and others not, usually with the resistor manual HVAC setup. Generally low and high work of any at all. Easy cheap switch though, get the updated version though. Point is, manual systems use resistor, auto systems use a module. The fuel tank vent purge solenoid/valve can often be cleaned out pretty easily and put back. Funny how most of these problems run across the GM platforms form full-size to the midsize trucks. Also check every single ground strap you can find on the vehicle and they are all over the place. Two of mine under drivers floor and behind/under drivers headlight were barely connected. Each ground is important and can fix crazy intermittent electrical gremlins pretty easily. Remove, repair, clean, preserve, replace. Little to no cost, just elbow grease, or sandpaper dust. Also never run your own ground wire from the battery to anywhere. That changes the load on the main battery hot cable, which you’ll notice runs through a red fixture which kinda look like a clamp of sorts. It’s the inductive device used for the computer to sense the load in the electrical system, telling the alternator how much charge to produce, all in the interest of saving every single mpg it can, with less alternator drag when extra load isn’t needed. Any deviation can cause the computer to tell the rig to do weird things. Hence the odd instrument cluster messages, when you otherwise know that system is good. I got TPMS warnings all the time when they worked fine. Also rear windshield wiper would sporadically turn on, most often with a left blinker or reverse. Hmmm. Going around and cleaning all the grounds fixed lots of little gremlins. I cleaned and repaired or even improved at least six, and haven’t even gone to the back of the truck yet. Wonder if that would help the EVAP stuff? Hmmmmm
Thanks, this video really made me subscribe because it’s very helpful. Some ppl don’t give the answers to the problem.
My question, my 05 canyon cranks at times and it doesn’t turn on. I have to wait exactly 10 minutes before I can turn it on. What can be the problem?
Hi, I had the same problem with my 06'. It just tries to start and then floods out. What i have found to do is just turn the key half way for a few extra seconds and the fuel pump has time to get the fuel to the engine. What i have read on forums is that it is a sign of a weak fuel pump with is located above the fuel tank. It's a $500 labor job and that doesn't include the pump. I'm just baby'n mine and it's been over a year. It's too old to really stick any money into it.
I changed the fuel pump on mine, and a shit load of other stuff related to starting and didn’t fix the problem.. I changed the ignition switch and it fixed the problem. A pain in the butt at first to change the part. But after research and now that I know how to change it, Itl be quick easy fix now that I’ve done it. NOTE:
There is no need to take off the steering wheel
@@gammawave5425 Fuel pump would be a better start, especially since he stated he had to wait some time to restart the engine. That is a main signal for a fuel issue not an ignition switch issue.
I'm pretty that problem has to do with the pass lock system common problem
@@rickokemp1244 I did I changed the fuel pump, and it did not fix the problem it kept doing the same thing. Then I changed the cam shaft the fuel filter spark plugs ignition coils the fuses Mass airflow intake
Sensor , and Nothing until I changed the ignition switch
Love my 05 colorado but would love it more if it didn't have so much electronic garbage and sensors on the engine.
what issues does the 2011 colorado lt 3.7l have???
And the passlock fail . Could you make a video?
Oh gosh, where do I start? I have a 2005 Canyon that I call “My Monday morning truck” because the workers had one hell of a bender all weekend and came to work hungover Monday morning, threw my truck together and sent it off the assembly line. CD player stopped working, headlamp switch works when it wants, anti-theft module frequently left me stranded, every now and then the MPH/RPM gages drop to zero and all the idiot lights come on (while at speed on the highway) and the clear coat literally disintegrated within 5 years. P.O.S.!
Hello. Hey i have a colorado 2006 and i change the timing chain and now a cylinder fails on low speed. on high speed everything is ok. so can you help me with that?
What code pop up before you change timing chain. I'm thinking my shitarado is having the same problem 😕 code p0017 comes on.
Can the timing chain cause the 06 canyon to crank and turn over but not completely turn on and run? That's my issue was running and I shut it off for 5 minutes came back and it would just crank but not 100% start
Are you familiar with the passlock system?
I have a 09 GMC Canyon when I try to start my truck nothing happens I have to wait 10 minutes with the ignition on and then turn it off and then it’ll start what’s the problem
Another issue is the security systems in these trucks, it would randomly think you're stealing the vehicle and it won't start for 10-15 minutes and sometime up to 40 minutes
Mine does this occasionally too. Even after replacing the ignition. Drives me nuts!
@@icuat381 i bought the newrockies module (a bit pricey) to fix this issue and i haven't had the car's anti theft lock me out since. Been about 10 months now.
@@tookybird592 Has anyone tried cutting the wires to disable the passlock?
I remember the episode of deboss garage when they tackled that timing chain job, what a nightmare that was, such a horrible engineering design from GM😱
Yep mine needs one now. I couldn't understand why it was gonna cost $2500 for a timing chain until I saw that video
No mention of the oil leak issue?
I've had none of these but you missed a big issue that a lot of us have with the 4 cyl: Leaky crank seal(s).
is it a pain in the ass to fix? thinking about buying one
04 canyon why did my windshield motor thing go out?? Is there a reason or they just go out eventually? Has less than 150,000 on it ?
I have a colorado 2005 3.5l. It has rough idle. I cleaned throttle body and changed spark plugs, the idle was good at first but when i have driven it for test drive, the rough idle went back. I opened the hood and checked for the hissing sound and found out it was the pcv hose at the back of the intake. does affect the idle? How can i fix it?
replace pcv hose
Will you be doing video on removing/replacing each thing from this video??
+Carlos Ortiz We're always cycling through common cars. We'll add this repair to our list! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Here is the blower motor resistor replacement:
th-cam.com/video/GDNixQfDwwM/w-d-xo.html
The timing chain issue is that on all the different size engines? I think there are 2.8, 2.9 4 cyl and 3.5 5 cyl engines. Also what about the 6 cylinder?
No 6 cyl. There was a 3.7 5cyl and for a couple years it came with a 5.3 v8. No idea which the timing chain is common problem on tho
@@shittywheelies7403 I got the 3.5l 5cyl, I think its the v8 that's the problem
Yes timing chain issue for both the 4 and 5 cylinder engines. This generation didn't come with a v6. and there was a V8 engine for a couple years that did not have timing chain issues. Thank you for checking out the video. If you need auto parts go to: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-Now
I own a 09 with the 5.8.
I hate it so much. I’m putting one in my 04.
so, the timing chain failure issue; Is that just the 5 cylinder motor, or both the 4 & 5 cylinder engines?
Roughly what mileage would be a recommended time to change the timing chain?
I only worked for O'reilly Auto for a couple of months, but in that short time I seen at the least 4 of those trucks come in with the evap code popping up on the code reader. At least that is a fairly easy and somewhat cheap fix.
Great vid and thanks for sharing it.
Mine is a 4 cyl and I have 208k on it right now
You can try changing the crank and cam sensor as well as the cam shaft actuator if you have code p0017. It didn't fix my problems but it did in several videos I've seen on youtube
I've been thinking of buying a first generation GMC Canyon. If I do, which engine is best and what year model is best?
3.7 the 3.5's head head issues
@@tmrdarkstar85 Thank You. If I decide to buy a first gen canyon, I will go with the 3.7 I5.
None
How about Gen 2? (I have a 2017 4cyl manual Canyon) maybe I worry too much
Second gen actually starts in 2007. That's when they went from 3.5 to the 3.7 I5 and added a 5.3 v8.
I got the check engine light
Replace my air filter no light Grasias amigo
Nice 👍 Glad I could help!
Frame rust eventually cracking in the middle causing the truck to sag.
I have a 08 chevy colorado 3.7 and just repaired the engine,but it idles rough and throws the p0017 code always. I already change the vvt valve on the head,change the cam and crank sensors. I did all and the problem still persist. I gues it would be the timing chain or timing issue?
Timing chain stretch or possibly the VVT Pulley
@@recrdholdr thanks for the response. I will get into that
Add Antilock brake wheel sensor.
Watching this after I fixed #3,4, and 5 already.
Hmmmm just bought some stuff off your website........now the videos are popping up on youtube........big tech is watching :)
My 2007 model says that there is a door open and keeps locking and unlocking the doors while I’m driving down the road, do you know what could be the cause of this?
Check for broken wires in door
I have an 07. Mine did the same thing only when I used the car alarm door opener and locker. It wouldn't do that when I used the manual key entry. I dropped my fob in the water, and then it did the atutolock/unlock. It might be related to the fob.
I assume these would be the same on the Colorado?
Yes they would! But we might do a new video for the Colorado if we get one in the studio! Keep watching the channel! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-Now
Can you write me the location of engine number for 2004 gmc canyon 2.8l
I have a '05 Canyon, the problem I am having is no headlights (low beam), no fog lights, and no interior lights. I checked all the fuses and those are all good. what should I check next ??
Check the actual light switch housing, I had no interior lights, cluster, or headlights…, $30 off eBay… one screw to get into the dash…. Fixed
@awthompson02 I had the issue and the control panel for the lights was bad
A lot of work for the pcv hose

Those aré the same than colorado?
I don’t know how to fix my Cruise Control on my pickup
Oh that dang blower resistor - I am on my third one - I am thinking I should put spade connectors on the thing. 2006, bought new, 183K miles. I would add that these have the dumbest front rotor design ever - you have to remove the hub to replace the rotors - be sure to use anti-seize on the new hubs (you'll likely destroy the old hubs removing them) and also don't screw up your wheel sensors....I also have the evap code - that piece of plastic crap failed after a few years and I just ignore it.
Can you help me for the location of vin number on chasis abaout 2004 model gmc canyon
it's on the door panel and I also at the top of the dash on the drivers side
It would seem the main issue is the check engine light.
What about the rough idle when you first crank up
I can probably help you, but I need more information.
You are probably talking about the time it takes for the air pump to kick in and offset the extra fuel going to the engine from the evap emissions
@@doyouthinkbro5266 that what it is but it sounds like the engine is gonna fall out of the truck for those couple minutes
Has anyone had the oil level warning go crazy with fully wet dipstick?
I had a check oil light come on once on my 2004 Chevy colorado and I parked it checked the oil (it was perfect) and i fired my truck back up and and hasn’t happened since🤷♀️. That was at 140000~ miles
It could be a bad sensor or wiring issue. Thank you for checking out the video. If you need auto parts go to: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-Now
Oil pressure switch or sensor. It’s above your oil filter.
I have 364,000 and on my blue Betty, had all 3 out 5 and some. I had the abs light come on after my U joint busted witch broke the driveline and wouldn't start. Had to rest it. I pulled the driveline and put her in 4 high and back on the road!!
Hi good morning I have wa big problem wit my truck
What would cause it not to start up sometimes sometimes it will not start in the rain or sometimes you got to wait 5 or 20 minutes before it will start after try to start it
+Rich freedom We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
That is your pass lock system that is acting up. Quite common as well on these trucks
Ive read about this issue in a few reviews. Its a manufacturing problem and I dont think theyll fix it
Yea the pass lock I had the exact same problem and to fix it is to replace the ignition switch
2008 Chevrolet Colorado the temperature gage reaches 3/4 and it is not hot.I already changed the thermostat and I changed the fan clutch and temperaturesensor.The temperature is 3/4 is not really hot .What will be the problem, I have had several trucks and if they are still the same it is normal.
hi maybe bad thermostat but sounds like plugged radiator
The thermostat is New from the dealer
I have the same problem.. changed thermostat fan clutch radiator water pump and still the same.let me know if you find the problem
@@ivanarau2073 There is two replacement thermostat's, looks like you got the one on the hot side. If you have the part number from the one you got. Try the other option.
@@maces1405 thank you I will try that 👍
I got an issue with the last one but coming from a car with no ac at least I got ac
Location for BCM ON a 2010 GMC CANYON
Is that the 2.8 4 cylinder?
Like the infamous 97-2009 Toyota Corolla blower motor , they placed the design where passengers , especially high or intoxicated ones & young ones will kick the sucker with their feet . Even sober passengers will also kick it.

My 2005 GMC Canon, turns off when its running at 5-10 mph what would that be?
+Isaac Ramirez We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Does it idle ok? I had a dirty throttle body keep getting stuck closed in the winter before. Took it apart and cleaned it. Solved the problem on my 3.5L. Gave a random cyl. Misfire code.
@@scox7760 I'm glad I read this, I'm getting the random misfire code also, time to clean the TB
i thought one was going to be how much work is involved to change front break rotors. a real pain in the arse
that and if you live in snow or ic area and the treat the roads , purge them frame rails out regularly or your truck will break in half. lol
Very true! thanks for watching! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-Now
Stupid design had to use sludge hammer and torch to separate bearing from steering knuckle
I helped the son-in-law change a front rotor on his 05 Colorado, what a pain! And I had a 05 Colorado which was great mechanically but suffered from frame rot. It also had the evap issue, and a brake light switch that went bad. Didn't figure that one out until I researched why my cruise control quit working.
Mine is the 09 canyon, 50k miles, slipped a bearing and probs a bad head gasket
Damn. Low oil, old oil? At 50k miles that shouldn’t happen, obviously.
I got a 2004 and the only problem I got with it is it doesn't want to idle at where it used to it idles like at 600 and no check engine light
No codes and it's been to the dealership and they haven't been able to fix it
Mine does the same. Isles at 600 however I have 250k on it
@@keithm7197
My truck is at 224k
Should still idle at factory idle
it's computerized control
Unless they designed it that way?
did you clean the throttle body? mine went down to like 4 or 500 but after I cleaned it it's like 900 now I think
@@TheUnknownHarbingers yeah I cleaned the throttle body it's even been to the dealership and about once a year it drops by 50 rpm since it started
When temperatures are below zero this trucks won't start, a camry starts better in extreme weather conditions... I own both!

Dear sir i m from india need your help if possible, i have skoda octavia vrs with 1.8t engine same like jetta mk4.need to know exact location of MAP sensor.we dont have tecnition so i have to open it myself DIY.please help.
Its a small sensor that senses engine intake manifold pressure. It should be located on the intake manifold, or the intake tube that attaches to intake manifold. I hope this helps. Thank you for checking out the video.
Thanks I have Chevy Colorado 2010 I don’t have problems only the sensors tire pressure monitor
All times low tire pressure flash Flat tire etc...
You can get AC Delco TPMS sensors off amazon for $12. I have a 07 Colorado with 128k miles. If you test the TPMS "TH-cam it" take the tire and the new sensor to Walmart they didn't charge me to switch it out.
There's nothing wrong with this vehicle..... how much time do you have for me to have for me to dispute that? Because I have that truck and I can argue that all day
My truck doesn't run right somthing with ba k 5 ylinded
