• 1999 Chevy Blazer Humming Noise

  Written by: weller2006 on Apr 30, 2013 8:02:49 AM

  There is a humming noise in my 1999 blazer. As soon as I start moving at about 15mph or so you hear the noise. It is really loud at about 45-55mph. Even when you do about 35mph and then let off the gas to coast down you'll hear it loud and clear. I'm thinking its either the Transfer Case or Rear Differential. Any advice will help

There is a relay under hood. The multifunction switch (turn signals/hi-low beams is in the column and possible the connector is loose or the contacts junk by your post. Again try the dial first.

You need to replace the wiper control module (circuit board attached to the wiper motor) - part number is GM#12463090. Just a couple of screws and about 10 minutes of your time.

  If I were you I would start considering trading the Blazer in and never look back. Blazer is a well-known high maintenance vehicle. After about 5 years and 82k miles, this Blazer seems to be practically done. Chances are other costly repairs will mushroom after this repair. Also there is no guarantee the dealer's BPMV will fix the problem to your satisfaction. Brake is a crucial safety component and a mere ... Read More

  Hey guys (and gals). I just took my mom's 1999 Chevrolet Blazer into a local dealer to get a tranny flush and oil change. While in the service bay, they informed me that the oil cooler lines were leaking, there was a vacuum hose leak under the dash that effects the HVAC system, and the serpentine belt was cracked. The car only has 63K on the odometer. Are these problems normal? ... Read More

I proceeded and even took the reservoir off and cleaned it the best I could. Today I was checking level, and it still has some sludgy junk (not much) floating around in reservoir. I was just hoping someone could ... Read More
