SOURCE: Fuel pump issue, 2004 chevy avalanche

1s the fuel pump should not be that noisy, and the problem u are describing is a defective/worn out fuel pump, it is taking time to built pressure, replace the fuel pump and don't forget to replace the in line fuel filter as well.

SOURCE: 1999 CHEVY SILVERADO WARNING LIGHTS KEEP FLASHING

I had something similar happen to my 2006 and it was a short in the fuse box itself. It cost me about $500 in all from the dealer, but you may be able to just get a used one at a junk yard and back then I don't think you have to have the dealer reprogram everything. Good luck.

SOURCE: chevy avalanche will not start

The battery connection to the starter may not be good. Loosen the cable and re-tighten. Check the starter relay, it should have 2 cables, 1 wire. it will consist of 1 to starter, 1 from battery and 1 the wire is the signal wire from the ignition. the contacts in the relay may be gone. It's usually mounted on the firewall and close to the battery. $15+ for the part, and easily replaced. his will definitely keep you sater from turning over.

SOURCE: 2002 Chevy Avalanche. Truck will not

Do a bench test on the starter. Remove starter, hook up a ground cable to starter, and positive to two prongs on starter and it should spin. You can do this in vechile too but not suggested due to risk of injury. If it doesn't spin, probally a solenoid or the starter it self. Unlikely but possible.

2005 Chevy Avalanche. Can anyone help me with instructions on how to install the resister?

Question edited a bit for clarity.
Question moved from Cellphones category.

Not sure what you mean by 'the register'. That is an old fashioned name for a heater radiator? Do you mean something to do with the heating system, like vents of blend door actuators that control heat and cold direction?

or a window regulator.

99 Jetta won't turn off when I remove the ignition key and the temperatur guage doesn't move but the fans come on?

Electrician has miswired the car or didn't properly repair the short. Very hard to know what he did wrong. Will he not fix it himself?

Once a new key is programmed, will an old key still work in a 2005 Chevy Malibu?

Not sure about Chevy's, but when my husband lost his keys for his Ford, he got a new key programmed, and when he found his "lost" key, it still worked. Try it. Don't think it will hurt it if it doesn't work, but check with a dealer.

No heat at all

I would check that the vacuum lines are connected. Then check that the cable is moving the heater core door.
