I Bought a Hummer H2 TRUCK and it's SUPERCHARGED! It Broke Immediately!

[@MegaFranceschini]

RANDY, THAT HUMMER IS FANTASTIC. I DON'T CARE WHAT PEOPLE SAY. IS INSANE. RANDY BE BLESSED. TAKE CARE

[@buddyrebel_Garcia]

It maybe 15 years old but the looks is timeless. Looks like it could of been built 2015-2022. Hummer H2 rock!

[@LaMaRaGe0622]

Keep the hummer. Forget that $72000 truck lol. It's paid off can't beat it. Sweet deal honestly

[@samgrabel8648]

I believe if you roll down the rear window than hit that button it folds that rear panel down to make a pass through to the bed like on the avalanche

[@edbrown2061]

Randy, that Revelco thing under the dash is not for the supercharger. It is an anti theft device. If that cap is not in the port, the vehicle will not start. You put the cap on a key ring and take it with you. Nice buy. The H2 s are awesome in my opinion. They only will go up in value. I believe the rear bulkhead also folds down to make the truck bed bigger. Lastly, I thing there is a button for the driving lights in the headlight panel. Just to the right of the headlight switch.

[@djsonic6533]

A supercharged Hummer? Such a beautiful creature and awesome buy!! The gauges are a common thing for a GM vehicle and usually caused by what you thought it was, bad grounds. Hopefully this one will stay in the channel 😊

[@igeekone]

39:42 Codes are simple and not an issue. The BCM code is because of the LED light conversion in the passenger compartment. The other two are like you mentioned, those are because of he after market head unit.

[@joshuaowens4797]

I... like you Randy... love these Hummers too. The truck versions are very rare.

[@nantucket3215]

Great find with that Hummer! She’s a beauty with an amazing towing capacity. That expanded cargo bed was a pleasant surprise. Enjoy.

[@thomascarleton8760]

Forget the RAM. If you can't improve, don't bother.

[@FUMan661]

Same thing happened to my 04' H2 after the battery went dead for awhile. Just disconnect the battery and wait 5mins, reconnect, all your problems should go away. So, in the future, if your H2 has a dead battery and you jump it, there's a good chance all of those lights and problems will be there again. After you run it for 30mins to charge the battery (assuming it's still good), disconnect it for 5mins and reconnect, those lights will go away again. I don't know why, but with GM vehicles, whenever the battery starts to go weak, a bunch of weird stuff starts to happen, especially with the dash lights.

[@_Car_Ideas]

@@FUMan661 that’s helpful info! I’ve been thinking about buying one and I’m 20 mins into this video and started to have second thoughts until I read your comment haha Thanks man!

Man, there are some seriously high dollar parts on this rig! Regardless of what others say, if this truck makes you happy, who cares what you paid for it and who cares whats wrong with it! Enjoy the purchase!

[@mc996cars1]

I think That round plug is a theft ignition kill switch, Plug has to stay in to work and when you remove it, It should kill the ignition. Love the truck Randy.

[@natec4359]

One of the coolest cars ever! It’s a beauty. I would hang on to this one for sure! Why go into huge debt for another RAM when you don’t really need it. The H2 is iconic and so much cooler than any pickup.

[@rjdatdude23]

You would go in debt keeping it full and maintenance you fool.

[@SwampBoysGarage]

I’m just here reading these comments. Lol. Crazy!! I owned an H1 for 10 years and miss it so much. Wouldn’t mind finding a good H2 one day to fix up.

[@CaliCarsEnt]

Love the Hummer Randy…. I myself went from a 01 Yukon XL to a 09 Suburban until the AFM motor failed. I dumped the Suburban and went back to a trusty 04 Yukon XL and won’t trade is for anything else because of the AFM motors. It’s not my daily so I don’t really care how old it is. Plus the updated exhaust sounds better on the older 5.3l. Enjoying your video’s here is Los Angeles.

[@jamesmcdonald3113]

Randy, I freaking love it. I'm sure you'll have lots of fun with it.

[@kevindoxey]

Battery connection! Interior light switch is on and running battery low. A low battery will make things act crazy! LOVE IT!!!!!!!Keep it and forget the new Ram!

The Hummer is sweet! I am someone that can't leave anything alone but there isn't much on it I would change. Nice ride Randy. 👌

[@NoahClay6]

That is a sweet Hummer! Also yes the SUT version is more rare then the regular SUV version. I would keep that for a long time also those seats look super comfortable. Nice choice Randy you will get some great times with it!👍👍

[@ncairguner]

This video bring me back cool memories from my H2 SUT hummer I bought brand new in 2005. I put a 37” tires on it and it was a a real head turner. I sold it in 2014!

[@Huntatroll]

shouldve kept it. prob worth alot in 20 years

[@billdavis1730]

More trucks recently, awesome!! And a Hummer H2T/SUT! I like the unique stuff! Especially good timing now that GM brought the Hummer brand back with both an SUV and SUT. One request for future videos; could you give more updates on the whereabouts/status/disposition of your previously purchased vehicles? What happened to the Audi wagon? The Panamera? Etc. Look forward to the videos daily!

[@aksgarage3230]

I have see that issue before with that dash. Cleaning or putting on new battery terminals doesn't fix it. The problem is the ignition. The key will turn too far forward which will make everything not work. It just the GM ignition problem.

[@gj4093]

Awesome Hummer. We couldnt keep these on our lot for over a week back in the day. They are becoming tough to find these days. Great job Randy.

[@Saddletramp1200]

That little cap is a very expensive anti theft system. I had one on my mustang.

[@damionadams8516]

Beautiful truck Randy. Those wheels fit it perfectly. I know you probably won't, but you should keep that bad boy.

[@Catman39]

The H2 rides good because it's on a a modified GM three-quarter-ton pickup truck in the front and a half-ton 1500 frame in the rear.

[@onceuponatimeintoronto891]

I bought my special edition Victory Red 8 yrs ago with 99K on it from California, replaced the diodes in the dash pretty much 6 months in, alt, water pump, brake lines and wheel bearing is the only thing I replaced along with new tires. Not many problems and cant complain much, honest opinion though, the only thing I would trade it for is my old Jeep Grand Wagoneer from 89 to 1991 it was just as capable with the 360 ci and 727 trans and heavy enough to blast through anything, and no plastic lol.

[@2003cobramustang]

Really nice hummer Randy! She’s a beauty and a beast! Love the sound of the exhaust! Glad you where able get everything working! So many cool options! Definitely a big win!

I have to say, that is a very nice H2. It looks almost new! We had a mom at my kid's school and she daily drove a yellow one every day for years. I think she called it Tweety as she had a Tweety bird sticker on the back! Lol!

[@steveosgood9182]

keep it. Those are solid engines, even though some have piston slap when cold, some have oil usage even with lower miles. 300K miles before a rebuild can be achieved. Made before AFM. AFM is nothing but trouble. I have a 2004 Escalade with the 6.0 LQ9 and below 80K miles. Trouble prone areas , some shared with the Hummer?: A/C has those crappy flapper doors. Dash gauges , ride leveling with the air compressor. Better off just replacing it with shocks when needed. .

[@gareymitchell5243]

I agree with ED Brown, make sure that the Revelco port plug is aligned properly. Not a huge Hummer fan but as is, it should be loads of fun. Save up money for gas.

[@Primeiro_ultimo]

Great machine Randy! Cheers from Portugal!

[@friggoff5268]

I think In the first part of the video it was in security mode, my silverado would do that same thing if the battery was really drained, it thought someone was trying to steal it. It would have no gauges, the interior lights would not go out, the backup lights would be on even when in park or drive, and the info area would say unknown driver instead of driver 1 or 2 when you start it. Let the battery come up to charge and disconnect it and reconnect it and it was fixed every time.

[@j.t.8322]

Good deal. From one Hummer owner to another, that's a very nice looking truck, too bad someone had to touch it with aftermarket accessories. (radio, headers, whipple, etc etc). That suprcharger would be hard on the 4×4 components because of gear ratio, thus prone to breaking down. Note-those sunroofs are notorious for clogging up and then leaking into the interior cab. PS, send the Ram down the road.

[@hungryhungryhummer]

These kits don’t typically run a whole lot of boost. The stock drivetrain is pretty stout other than the 4l transmissions. But it shouldn’t be any more unreliable than stock. Especially since the transmission should be tuned to not kill itself like from the factory.

[@toolzshed]

Great troubleshooting Randy 🤘🏽😀

[@kristofordurrschmidt]

This is the "unknown driver" error from the H2. This occurs when the battery totally drains or near drains and causes confusion when it just barely turns over. To fix it, simply disconnect the battery for about 30 min and reconnect it. Good to go. Unfortunately, most H2 owners are familiar with the battery drain problems many have and correct them.

[@hungryhungryhummer]

I have good news for you! The 6.2s in the h2 do NOT have DOD. The provisions are there but the H2 did not get the lifters and problematic valve train parts like the trucks did. I believe this is because it’s because it’s on rhe 3/4 ton platform. Many people consider the l92 from the 08 to be one of the best engines gm ever built.

[@jasonmacneil2256]

But Randy doesn't have the 6.2 LS in this hummer!

Omg perfect timing for this exact video, am currently looking at the same vehicle through salvage auctions and once i buy and repair, yea adding a turbo, great vid thx again

The bottom lights are not actually fog lights. They are daytime running lights and they'll turn on when you put it in gear.

Hey Randy, i feel your pain on the gas mileage. When i bought my 2001 RAM 2500 with the 8.0 liter V10, i knew the MPG wasnt gonna be pretty because its a quad cab, long bed, 4x4 with a 6" lift and 37" Super Swamper mud terrain tires and a 33 gallon tank. After monitoring a dozen tanks of gas, my average is 9.6 per gallon. But like you, theres just something about the truck that makes me feel like a kid at xmas every time i drive it, i cant explain it LOL

[@fredwalker839]

I feel your good pain! I bought a new 98 Ram 3500 4x4 dually v-10, it was @ the dealer unsold for 1 1/2 years. I would see it moved around their compound every snow fall! I plowed the property next door! I am a GM guy, but what the hell, cool truck. I went into the dealer, just bought a Grand Cherokee there for my wife! Now the storey ! I talked to the same salesman, said , I will pay cash for that heep! How much ? When the right now price was given, I laughed and said that’s why you can’t sell it ! I offered ( if my memory is right) 6-7K under “today’s price”He laughed said no way! Fine, here is my phone #. He phoned 5-6 times! I stuck to my price,,,, well, I got it! Putt 33” Mickey’s on it,,,, 9 mpg. Who cared,,, with the thousands I saved,,, you can put a lot of gas in it! Had for 4-6 years,,,, a buddy bought it from me & moved to the East coast! True storey! Powerfull truck!

That button on behind the back seat only functions when the back window is rolled down. It opens the bed to expand inside of the truck. The bed does actually transform into a larger bed.

[@richardkertz9909]

You had a battery power issue. If you notice the volts were very low and probably the ECM or PCM didn’t allow power to certain features. My Camaro acted up one time due to the battery and it was low at crank. Replaced it and issues went away. Something drained that battery and once you drive it charged up. Yet you have a gremlin like a solenoid stuck. I had a 2008 Chevy that constantly dead battery due to a solenoid. Ended up trading it bc the dealer never figured it out. Later I realized it was a solenoid. My Jeep is always having this issue after 10yrs.
