@many-points2 ай бұрын
Yeah you need to plug it in so won't work without an outlet. If you want one that works on the road without being plugged in I recommend the GB70: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZexY4amotV-Z80si=NpRTzNh9MoWZj6G7

Thanks for pointing out that when fully charged the green light will remain fully lit. My first time to use my Genius 10 and I have a flashing green light for nearly an hour and was unsure if constant illumination is expected. I’m surprised how difficult it has been to find this confirmation. They should have provided a how to use manual with the charger.

Stop fuse keeps blowing as soon as I push brake pedal, Changed brake switch, same thing. Checked and changed bulbs but still no brake lights and still blowing fuses. Tail lights are fine... not sure what else to do besides the dreaded tracing of wires. I unplugged every connector to try and narrow down short but fuse still blows with everything disconnected. About 40 fuses later and im still puzzled. Any ideas?
@many-points2 ай бұрын
Yeah that sounds you have the dreaded short in the wiring somewhere unfortunately. Seems like you've checked all of the other boxes so likely wiring issue. Last time I blew a fuse it was actually a short in the trailer wiring I was hooked up to.

Thanks to your video, I was able to locate and replace my brake switch. It started with my third brake light going out (broken bulbs due to weak gasket) and eventually it stopped working even with new bulbs. I even replaced the entire third brake light assembly to no avail. Today all my brake lights were out. I checked my fuses and they were fine. Coincidentally, my cruise no longer engages, so that switch is next on my list. Thank you!
@many-points6 ай бұрын
Might be worth driving it a few ignition cycles (on drive, off) first to see if the cruise starts working again before replace the cruise control one. That was my experience - for some reason it took a couple of ignition cycles for the truck to figure out everything was fixed and for the cruise to start reengaging. Glad I could help. I posted the video because at the time there wasn't any good info I could find on it so I hoped it could help others.

the first time taking off the cover on my 1998 Chevrolet c1500 i replaced the gasket. it leaked a little after. i took it off again, cleaned the surface and now it is ok.. take the time to clean seal before installing new gasket. after taking off once and getting rid of break in magnet metal this is the only option i will use in the future. i see gasket maybe 20 dollars.. risk of the seal leaking.. more time.. this options makes a lot of sense..

Agreed the alligator style clip wont work in that case. I would leave the alligator clips off (the video at about the 1 min mark shows how they are connected/disconnected) and instead install NOCO's eyelet adapter and use that for your permanent install: a.co/d/7hG95dW

Great video. I also have an 04 Yukon and need to do this. Was the hose that came with the pump flexible enough to get in there? And how far were you able to get the hose in? Thanks!
@many-points9 ай бұрын
Yes, the hose that comes with the fluid extractor is definitely thin and flexible enough to get to the bottom of the differential housing. It's a fairly stiff hose but it does flex. It took me a few attempts (reorientations) to get it inserted all the way to the bottom because it's a tight fit.

I'm not even a fan of Chevy, GMC or Ford for that matter but that Eaton G80 locker is one of the best inventions & super badass + hella reliable much props & I like how they put it in their SUVs all different vehicles makes them so much more capable off-road than what they would be without it! Nice because it can be used in 2-wheel drive unlike my '22 dumbass Tacoma that has to be in 4L to work the locker 🔒🤷 figured by now Toyota would have engineered these trucks to work in 2wd or 4H with a locker...
