Then either your alternator is not working properly and keeping your battery charged, or you have some parasitic electrical drain. The better autoparts chains can do a battery and alternator 'load test', where they can test that the alternator is putting out full voltage and current. Have this done first. You may have a bad diode in the alternator. Once you know the alternator and battery are in excellent shape, verify ... Read More

Unlocking a Radio That Displays LOC When Code is Unknown IMPORTANT: Starting in 1995, a factory back-up code can be used to erase the original code if it is unknown.

Hi I used to own a 1995 chevy suburban. And I had the same symtoms as you do. When I would come to a stop at a red light the engine would die. I go to park it the engine would die. And when I put my foot on the gas it would lurch forward. When my engine would die I would lose power steering. I go to start it again ... Read More

I'm only going by your error code clue of low voltage at the pump. I had a '96 350 engine, but never had any fuel issues at all. I'm on the road, so don't have access to my old factory manuals. I don't even know that there is a relay in the circuit, but many vehicles have relays so suggested you could look in that area. I'm taking a stab in ... Read More

hmm well i never would have thought of the relay. i figured if it kicked the fuel pump on it works. but why is it that when i up such a demand on the engine the relay would be the culprit? not that im doubting you in any way. im just confused when it comes to this matter. thanks for the help buddy! if you got any more insite or if ...

You may want to track down electrical schematics for your vehicle. If you have a relay for the fuel pump, you may want to swap it out.

I own a 1995 Chevy Suburban with a 7.4L V8 (454). We have had it for well over ten years now and have not had any serious problems with the truck. It runs great drives smooth for being a 8600 GVW 3/4ton. But recently it has been having an issue when the throttle is being pressed harder due to towing/hauling. What it does is if I get on the accelerator hard ... Read More

I have recently acquired a 1995 Chevrolet Suburban and the turn signals in the back and the brake lights do not work, with the exception of the overhead brake light. I have changed all of the brake lights and that did not resolve the issue although a number of the bulbs were burnt out. I was told that it is not likely that I have a fuse that needs to be ...

I have a 1995 Surbaban that only blows air from the defrost. The A/C stopped working the next day. I checked the freon level and it was ok. I also checked the compressor and it worked ok when I sent 12v direstly to it. What can I check next. The a/c button on the dash seems to flicker but nothing happens. Thanks Steve
THE STARTER WON'T TURN OVER ON THE FIRST TRY, ALWAYS ON THE SECOND TRY. I TRIED A NEW STARTER & RELAY AND IT STILL DOES THE SAME THING. THANKS

Recently my 1995 Chevy Suburban's (rear brake and turn signal) fuse has blown. Every attempt to correct this issue has resulted in a shortage as well. What are my most economical options to resolve this issue?
