There are wear indicators on the pads that squeal when you apply the brakes. You could look through the wheel and look to see if the rotor is smooth and groove free.
The best way is to remove the wheels and visually check to see how much of the brake pad is left. If you are down to a 1/8 to 3/16th of an inch I would replace the pads.

Seal all the lights on top. Mine flooded from the water running down the light harness wires. Used clear rtv sealant and fixed it. You will have to remove the seal the two larger lights on the corners.

SOURCE: headlight replacement

Open the hood, Turn the twist lock sleeve the surrounds the wiring harness end and pull out bulb holder. Pull out old bulb, press new bulb tab into slot, replace unit back into light housing, turn twist lock sleeve to secure to housing.

Dont touch the new bulb with your bare fingers.

Skin oils can heat up on the bulb and cause it to fail.

I drive a 2005 hummer h2. Lately my brakes have been harder harder to engage. I push the peddle and usually i dont have to apply that much pressure to stop. I have had my brakes replace with top of the...

  • Most commonly a stuck brake bad will cause the hydraulic fluid to boil and expend and then the brake pedal won't hardly move.
  • But all considering you need to replace the brake booster.
  • This is not a DIY "project. I will link you to where one is though so you can see what it looks like. http://www.partstrain.com/ShopByDepartment/Brake_Booster/HUMMER/H2/2005
  • Traditionally a bad master cylinder will give a spongy feeling to the brake pedal.

  • Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa

Washed the vehicle Fri. It sat in the garage over the weekend. Temp outside is in the high 20. When I baked out this morning my brake pedal was so hard to push and I had no power steering. 2003 h2 hummer

Did you wash the engine too? any way the only reason the brake/power steering goes hard is due to either brake booster not working or P steering belt coming off OR the vehicle shuts off momenterly. Check to see if the brake fluid is at level.

THE POWER STEERING PUMP ON MOST OF THE LIGHT TRUCKS ANY MORE ALSO RUN THE POWER BRAKES, CHECK TO SEE IF YOU HAVE POWER STEERING LINES GOING TO AND COMING FROM THE BACK OF THE MASTER CYLINDER AREA. THATS THE HYDROBOOST ACTUATOR. REPLACE THE P/S PUMP AND FLUSH ALL THE LINES
