    Here is our disclaimer... This is just a demonstration and video of how we changed ours. Please attempt at your own risk you are dealing with fuel and heavy parts and is possible to harm yourself or others in this procedure. --- End of disclaimer.
    This is our video of how we changed the fuel pump in the 2001 Chevrolet Silverado again. We had previously bought a cheap $50 pump and changed it using the tilted bed method and was not happy with it a shop chain hoist would have made this job removing the bed completely effortless but once again my son and I chose the not so easy method hope you enjoy!

    This is why you spend the money and get a factory Delco pump from a reputable dealer. A lot of the aftermarket stuff you find for cheap online is junk and you will just have to do the job again in a short amount of time. Good job posting a clear video explaining the entire process.

  • @hawkofthenorth4829

    Yellow black is ground to fuel gauge,
    purple is fuel gauge +5 volts,
    grey is fuel pump +12 volts, only shows the +12 volts for 2 seconds after key its turned on.
    Black is grounded to frame. In the same ground spot the fuel cap ground strap is grounded, is a short black wire that exits the Wire harness between cab and box Mine just broke here when I was changing brake line to rear, so if a pump is not pumping check this ground spot.

  • @mikey4016
    @mikey4016 3 роки тому +1

    This was a decent video, however I'd like to point out that without adhesive lined heat shrink over those butt connectors, those splices are going to fail.
    Also, that blue wire you were mentioning at the end, is the wire for trailer brakes, GM includes the wire in the harness but doesn't terminate it at either end. So if you have a trailer with brakes and you install a seven pin trailer connector, you would connect the rear end of that wire to your trailer connector and the front end to your trailer break controller in the cab.
