Cruise lever replaced in 10 minutes on my 1994 Silverado OBS!

[@bizerho22]

Dude! You solved my mystery! I bought an 88 K1500 project truck and on it the receiving (female) connector for the cruise wire was not clipped to the metal subframe, it was just dangling. I didn’t know what is was for and I thought it was supposed to clip into something…and the cruise wire from the turn signal stalk was coming out of the top end of the steering column (I bought the truck like that, knowing absolutely nothing about how to fix it) and I had no frigging idea what, where, who, when, anything, until I saw your video and it all clicked. Thank you sir!

[@kygator1]

Just watched this cause I thought I remembered this being easier then replacing whole assembly.. Also noticed your a camaro guy, cool deal.. Same here, RubySS is my wife's and I.. Hopefully meet on the TOTD soon.. 👍

beautiful truck

Beautiful truck! I got a long bed 92 obs Chevy. Red just like yours and same interior. It’s a stick though.

[@dronechaserzl1]

I wanted the stick but couldn’t find one near me.😎👌

Mahalo sir. Very informative and helpful Aloha

Glad I could help!😎👍

[@keagengibson3328]

So I have a question looking for the cruise control switch for my 1990 k1500 and noticed there are two different ones the g20 is the cheaper than the oem and I believe that’s the one you used just wondering how it worked for you any answers will help

[@HK-qj4im]

A tiny bit of hand lotion.. Slide thru easier. Electricians have a special lube they use to pull heavy wire...that would be perfect

[@BRMN8R]

Man i seen that big black wire behind the stalk on mine and i though a previous owner done a hack job of fixing something. I didnt realise that was factory. Mine works, but i want to replace the stalk as the paint has worn off mine too.

[@knowbuddy6282]

Thanks good video !

[@onlyasheep]

Thank you!

[@garyeudy784]

How did you get the new one in having trouble snapping it in

[@SchnelleKat]

thx for the video! I got a 91 k2500 LD (light duty) 6 lug. i bought for my winter/spring truck. Unmolested. All the writing is worn off the Stalk. So i gotta find a new one. I'm new to these, i am coming from the Square bodies.> Diesels (6.2). What blew me away is that it came with a factory dealership/build sheet invoice. nice exhaust you got, is it stock? only other issues mine the climate control floor vents and the blend doesn't work. was that module problematic even when new?

[@dronechaserzl1]

Yep, that module was problematic new even. Congratulations on your truck purchase. Yes, mine is a stock 5.7

[@sntruck]

I see you got the old style mirrors. I'm trying to figure out away to stop them from the wind from folding them in while driving. Any thoughts?

[@dronechaserzl1]

Absolutely, take the cover off and tighten the collar screw, problem solved.👌

[@reborn.reformed]

Oh yeah until somebody takes your plastic cover life is really good. LOL now my stuff is rusting, I can't believe somebody took my cover

[@samt2237]

Why do you not show reinserting the shaft? I cannot get this shaft to pop in

[@joshraper7376]

Having an issue on my 89 longbed. Wipers won’t quit after you turn them off. Usually will stop 30 seconds ti 90 seconds after and it is in random places. Thinking this would be the entire assembly inside the column and not just the lever. Thoughts? Good video by the way.

[@dronechaserzl1]

This is usually caused by a faulty circuit board on the wiper motor itself.

[@joshraper7376]

@@dronechaserzl1 thank you! I’ll try there first.

[@sntruck]

Yep you don't have to change the wiper motor just the circuit board

[@HK-qj4im]

This is one of those things that will probably happen to all these trucks....eventually

[@RoamingRigg]

I have a 92 chevy motorhome p30 chassis. The cruise control would work and randomly shut off while driving. Now it doesn't work at all. Will a new switch fix it?

[@KevinCavezuela]

So I have a 93 Silverado and my dash just tells me how fast Im going am I able to change it without modding anything to a one that shows me my rpms?

[@timmaxim2120]

I have a 94 Silverado 1500 4x4 with the same setup BUT I pulled on that lever hard enough that I thought it would brake the switch and it will not just pull out, any other trick to it?

[@dronechaserzl1]

If it’s tilt column and a 94 then it will come out. I’ve done hundreds of em. Turn it a little then pull, jerk on it turn it back straight then pull, it will come out. 👍

[@timmaxim2120]

@@dronechaserzl1 thanks , I'm thinking it got spun around inside the switch somehow and isn't lining up right to pull out

[@scottconnors578]

Do you remember the part number you got from eBay?All the cheaper ones I keep finding so they don’t fit.

[@dronechaserzl1]

331196222881 $27.99 they went up a little

[@jeffchristie-od5gu]

That'd been better than the few hundred dollars I paid a Shop to do it.

[@obsdwayne]

Good stuff! You think that will fix my problem? I put my signals and it doesn't click off, I have to click off my signals manually.

[@dronechaserzl1]

No, that won’t fix your problem. You have a turn signal switch problem. Most likely a small metal piece has come off your switch that used to do the cancelling.

[@obsdwayne]

@@dronechaserzl1 oh okay! I'll look it up

[@Born2Sled]

You showed every part of the swap except for the part I cannot get. New lever will NOT go back into the switch in the column. What’s the trick?

[@ruthrizer8763]

Would that method work on my 1989 Chevy Silverado, long bed, rear wheel drive?. Blinker runs too fast on Left side. Not the board or bulbs.

[@dronechaserzl1]

You have a bulb out or flasher is bed

[@dronechaserzl1]

Improper bulb will also do it

[@guadaluperamirez5611]

Donde consigo la palanca 🙏🏻?

[@DirtMvGirt]

Right on Man... Thank You.

[@LuisPerez-rx9ok]

Lever won’t go all the way in any suggestions

[@dronechaserzl1]

Turn a little and push, try different positions and wiggle til you get it to go.. it will go.

I know right? I’m a better mechanic than videographer. 😎👍

[@reborn.reformed]

Is there a cover? What is he talking about?

[@saltyraptor5681]

​@@reborn.reformed there's no cover

[@FullAutoApolotics]

@saltyraptor5681 so tell me what the white tube sleeve is that is what I'm replying to in the initial comment under which I clicked reply? It's laying in the floor when he shows his parts and then it's up in the column as if it is used to install it somehow so that is why I'm asking, I also found the original part from GM on Amazon but man that thing is like 75.00 so I'm really glad to know that this one works well

[@zerchdafirst5994]

@@FullAutoApolotics the white sleeve it's to cover the cable and I just get of that cause I was having trouble to slip the cable trough the steering column
