2002 Chevrolet Chevrolet TrailBlazer LS Questions & Answers
After changing the coil pack and spark plug, why is it still skipping?
Timing could have jumped. Could be a bad head gasket also. even possible to be a small hole in piston check the cylinder for compression. Check the fuel injector to that cylinder if you have bad air to gas mixture it will throw a code of misfire change fuel filter check fuel injector to see if clogged. most likely it is the fuel injector .
What fuse is for the back window windshield wiper
Owners manual will give fuse locations and identifications. These vehicles are notorious for having the wiper motors/pivot seize. Try turning on the wiper motor switch and try moving the wiper arm by hand with a little force in the direction of its travel. If wiper begins or starts to work, replacement of the motor will be necessary
HOW DO I FIX A BROKEN WATERPUMP BOLT
Hi Glenn:
Usually the process will be to replace the bolt.
To do so it's easiest to remove the water pump. That involves draining the radiator, removing the fan, shroud, belt, everything that is in the way, then taking out the remaining bolts.
If you-re lucky, the broken one will have enough exposed to be able to get a grip on to remove. If not, you'll need to drill it and use an easy-out.
Then it's re-assemble with a new gasket
Timing chain cover
the fix will be to remove the timing cover and that will leave the broken bolt as an extension which you can grip with a pair of vice grips to undo
WAS THERE A PROBLEM WITH 2002 LS TRAILBLAZER FUEL PUMP LEAKING/ ROTTING
http://www.motortrend.com/cars/2002/chevrolet/trailblazer/recalls/
Recall ID # 470 - FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS
alt="Plus">
Hide Details
Recall Date:
AUG 23, 2002
Model Affected:
2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer
Summary:
ON CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, A FUEL FILTER FITTING CAN BECOME DISCONNECTED. IF THIS WERE TO OCCUR WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE ENGINE, A NO-START CONDITION WOULD RESULT AND FUEL WOULD BE PUMPED OUT THE FUEL FILTER ONTO THE GROUND.
Consequences:
IF THE FITTING BECOMES DISCONNECTED WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, THE ENGINE WOULD STOP DUE TO INADEQUATE FUEL SUPPLY AND CAUSE A LOSS OF POWER STEERING ASSIST. IF AN IGNITION SOURCE WERE PRESENT, FUEL LEAKAGE FROM A DISCONNECTED FUEL FILTER FITTING COULD RESULT IN A FIRE.
Remedy:
DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE FUEL FILTER QUICK CONNECT RETAINERS. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN SEPTEMBER 20, 2002. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-222-1020. GMC AT 1-800-462-8782, OR OLDSMOBILE AT 1-800-442-6537.
Potential Units Affected:
136511
Notes:
GENERAL MOTORS CORP.
Interior light stay on
Probably a bad door switch disconnect them all then plug in one at a time until the light comes on with the door shut
Chevrolet spark stalled and at times wont start or idle but cranks
Some potential solutions:
EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation): You mentioned that you cleaned the EGR, but it's still showing as a fault. The EGR system recirculates exhaust gases back into the intake manifold to reduce emissions. If the EGR valve is malfunctioning or clogged, it can affect engine performance.
Here are some steps to consider:
Check for Vacuum Leaks: Inspect the vacuum lines connected to the EGR valve for leaks or cracks. A vacuum leak can disrupt EGR operation.
Test the EGR Valve: Use a vacuum pump to check if the EGR valve opens and closes properly. If it doesn't, consider replacing it.
Clean the Intake Manifold: Sometimes carbon buildup in the intake manifold can affect EGR flow. Clean the intake manifold thoroughly.
Thermostat: You've already replaced the thermostat, which is good. A faulty thermostat can cause overheating or poor engine performance. Make sure the new thermostat is functioning correctly.
System Voltage Low: This could be related to the charging system (alternator, battery, or wiring).
Here are some steps to troubleshoot:
Check Battery Voltage: Measure the battery voltage when the engine is off and when it's running. It should be around 12.6V when off and around 13.8-14.4V when running.
Inspect Alternator: Ensure the alternator is charging properly. If it's not, consider replacing it.
Check Grounds and Wiring: Loose or corroded connections can cause voltage issues. Inspect battery terminals, ground connections, and wiring.
Idle Issues: If the engine won't idle properly, consider the following:
Idle Air Control Valve (IACV): The IACV controls idle speed. Clean or replace it if necessary.
Throttle Body Cleaning: A dirty throttle body can affect idle quality. Clean it using throttle body cleaner.
Vacuum Leaks: Check for vacuum leaks around the intake manifold, hoses, and gaskets.
Timing Chain: The B12D1 engine uses a timing chain. However, if it's stretched or worn, it can cause issues like poor performance or stalling. Consider having the timing chain inspected and replaced if needed.
Remember that diagnosing engine issues can be complex, and it's often best to consult a professional mechanic or use diagnostic tools.
Hi how to set a timing belt tensioner pulley when replacing 2011 Chevrolet aveo
Tensioner pulleys are designed to be 'Self Adjusting'. These pulleys are on spring loaded arms so they automatically push against the belt keeping it tight. You use a socket or a spanner to swing the pulley arm back against this spring.
*Note* This is a powerful spring so BE CAREFUL when your working on it!
A lot of these tensioners have two small holes to help with installing a belt. When you swing the tensioner arm back these two holes line up with each other. You can then slide a hex key, or something similar, through both holes and it holds the arm back giving you space to get the belt on.
*Caution* When your ready to release the tensioner DO NOT just pull the hex key out!! With the socket or spanner you used to swing the tensioner arm back push the arm against the spring again, carefully pull the allen key out then Carefully release the pressure on the spring so the pulley sits correctly and tensions the belt.
