Gm service bulletins

This was a known problem on this edition of GM SUV's and pick ups. GM even issued a service bulletin on it at one point. I had a 2004 Chevy P/U with the issue and GM did replace the gauge cluster under warranty. Search google for "Speedometer Service Bulletins" for your year and model. I doubt if you'll get it replaced for free after all these years but at least you'll know what you're dealing with.

SES suction supply vacuum. GM BULLETIN #PIP4526. It's a vacuum hose that is getting hot under load and loosing its rigidity and collapsing. You gm dealer should be able to supply you with and updated hose. Ask them to print out the service bulletin to walk you through the repair.

A defective electronic flasher relay will cause this problem. GM has a problem with these, please read on.

I agree with KENNYCOOPER. You need to check your belts and pullies again.

Also, there is a couple service bulletins published by the manufacturer for your belts. One involves replacement of the A/C clutch pulley and the other involves replacement of the upper guide pulley for the V-belt. These may or may not apply to your situation, but it would be worth looking into.

Probably a bad intermediate shaft.

There is a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) published by GM because of this condition.

TSB Reference Number 06-02-35-010
Date Of Issue: May 09 2006
This bulletin involves replacing the intermediate shaft with an updated part.

Updated part number (per the TSB) is GM Part Number 26068295
This is an old TSB - you will probably want to check with your local GM dealer to make sure this part number has not been superceeded.

There is a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) that identifies road debris getting caught between the inner fender and the upper strut support as a cause of creaking, popping, or thumping noise during tight turns in either direction.

It is really easy to fix. It involves prying out the inner fender to allow the debris to get out. For more information, visit your local GM dealer or have one of the local aftermarket shops in your area print you out a copy of the bulletin if they have access to this information.

Hi.

p0336 means CKP sensor performance error. Replace the crankshaft position sensor. If that doesn't fix the issue there is a number of GM factory service bulletins that point at a manufacturing problem with Yukon engine. Find the appropriate service bulletin for your engine in this page.

Regards.

the crankshaft sensor should be located on the GM V6 engine right behind the bottom
pulley at the bottom. There was a service bulletin for check engine lights on my S-10 about a
clearance problem with the sensor. Check it to make sure the end hasn't got
a hole worn in it. Hope this helps.

the pump, pulley and bracket come off as one piece with the reservoir as well.

If you are changing this to alleviate a moaning or shuddering symptom, you should check out the service bulletin for these cars. GM has a new pressure hose that gets rid of slow speed steering wheel shudder like when parking or turning slow. They say it's due to system pressure frequency issues.

hope that helps.

a technical service bulletin,but when you replace it again,make sure the connecting rods inside the door arent bent or hanging up on something.
