Expert Answers about Chevrolet Blazer


  • How to Find the Transmission Fluid Return Line on a Nissan Murano
  • Actually, CVT transmissions can use a special fluid that can be very expensive. I would check the owners manual or with a Nissan dealer to see if it takes special fluid and how much it costs. The easiest way to determine which transmission line is the return is a simple test. Chock the wheels of the vehicle, step on the parking brake, and then start the motor. Keep your foot on the brake pedal and shift into drive for about 15 seconds. Then shift back into park and turn off the motor. Under...

  • Finding the Stop Light Wire to Install a Trailer Brake Controller on a 1999 Chevy Blazer
  • The basic process for finding the correct wire to attach the brake controller red wire is to start by locating the brake switch above the brake pedal. Using a circuit test such as # PTW2979 , probe the wires until you find the one that shows a signal only when the brake pedal is pressed. You may need to have the key in the ON position. If you find a wire that has power with the turn signals or running lights also it is not the correct wire. If you cannot find the correct wire you could...

  • Installing 7-Way Trailer Connector and Brake Controller On 2003 Chevy Blazer
  • To install a 7-Way blade style RV connector and brake controller on your 2003 Chevrolet Blazer, you will need to install the Brake Controller 7 and 4 Way Installation Kit, part # ETBC7. To begin, since there is not a factory 4-way on your truck, you will want to just cut the 4-way connector off that is connected to part # ETBC7. Those wires will need to be spliced into the correct wires on your vehicle, you will want to use a circuit tester, part # PTW2993, to test functions of the wires....

  • Installing Brake Controller and Trailer Connector on 2003 Chevy Blazer
  • Your Blazer is not prewired for a brake controller, but one can be installed using our Brake Controller Install Kit, part # ETBC7. The kit contains everything necessary to install a controller, including the 7-way connector. The 7-way connector included in the kit is actually an adapter meant to be plugged into an existing 4-pole trailer connector, but the connector on the adapter could be cut off and directly wired to the existing wires you located near the spare tire. The white wire...

  • Can Heat Be Added to a Vehicle's Electric Mirrors When Using Replacement Mirrors Like # KS62021G
  • Unfortunately there isn't a way to add the heat function to the K-Source Replacement Side Mirror - Electric/Heated - Black - Passenger Side # KS62021G if you didn't have that feature from the factory. This mirror will still work as a replacement, but you won't be able to utilize the heating function. If you really want to add the heated feature you will need to talk with your dealer as I believe it requires a different harness.

  • Trailer Brake Controller Installation on a 2004 Chevy S-10 Blazer
  • All of the information I have on the 2004 Chevy Blazer is that it is a hardwire installation for a brake controller. This means that the blue wire does not terminate under the dash anywhere and you would need to hardwire the brake controller blue, black, red, and white wires to the vehicle. It is possible that there is a tow package port for a brake controller under the dash like on the same year full size GM trucks. Check on the driver side floor forward for the black junction box if...

  • Installation of the Draw-Tite Hitch 75129 On a 1977 Chevy Blazer
  • The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 75129 is a confirmed fit for the 1977 Chevrolet Blazer and uses some existing holes in the frame for installation. I have attached a photo of what the hitch will look like installed as well as a snip of the installation instructions but we don't have any install videos or photos inside the frame rail at this time due to the age of the vehicle. The flange on the hitch will sit up against the bottom of the frame and then the hardware...

  • Trailer Hitch Installation Instructions for a 1975 Chevy Blazer
  • We have not yet had the opportunity to install the Draw-Tite hitch # 75129 on a vehicle so I do not have a picture. But I do have the instructions that shows where on the frame the hitch installs. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you.

  • Finding the Brake Pedal Wire for a 2003 Chevy S-10 Crew Cab
  • You will have to use a circuit tester to find the wire carrying a signal when the brake pedal is engaged. We have the Circuit Tester, # 40376. Once you have found the correct wire, splice the red wire to the wire carrying the signal using a quick splice and you will be done. I have linked a video below. At the 6 minute, 20 second mark, we show how to test for the correct brake circuit wire needed. It will be similar on your S-10.

  • Can Andersen Ultimate Connection 5th Wheel Hitch Be Reversed
  • Yes, the Andersen Ultimate 5th Wheel Hitches like our rail-mount # AM3200 can be mounted in either direction so that the offset ball is more towards the tailgate or towards the cab. If this better suits your application when trying to maneuver the trailer around tight campground turns then reversing it so the ball is closer to the cab on your Ram will work without issue.

  • How Does the Roadmaster Tow Bar Wiring Kit # RM-154 Install on a GMC Jimmy
  • The three wires of the taillights of your 2005 GMC Jimmy are for, ground, low intensity (running light), and high intensity (blinker/stoplight). The colors of the wires aren't what you need to pay attention to. You need to test the wires for voltage when the brake lights are on, and then when the taillights are on. Once you have established the functions of each wire you will need to wire up the # RM-154 like the diagram I attached to the right shows. The yellow wire of the diagram represents...

  • Which Transmission Line of 2004 Chevy Blazer to Install Transmission Cooler On
  • On your 2004 Chevy Blazer the upper connection is from the trans, (hot). The lower connection goes back to the trans, (cooled). The lower line is the return line and the one you want to install a cooler on. For a transmission cooler the Derale part # D13503 would be a fantastic option. It measure 11" Wide x 8-3/4" tall x 7/8" deep and is a plate fin style cooler which is very efficient. The correct adapter fitting you'll want to use is the part # D13018. This threads into the radiator...

This allows you to disconnect the battery from the vehicle but allow the battery to power the braking kit.

  • Factory Connection Point for Trailer Wiring on a 1984 Chevy Blazer
  • As far as I could find the connection point on the 1984 Chevy Blazer is located along the driver side frame rail near the back of the vehicle (see instructions link). You may be able to pull it down from in front of the gas tank or up and over the frame rail. Otherwise, the way that you have described it, sounds like you would have to lower the gas tank to reach the factory connection point.
