My 2004 Chevy Blazer extreme at the same thing running down the road I'll send it turned off could that be the same problem that's happening to mine too since yours is 07 and mine is a 04
I got talked into fixing a truck for a friend. I was about to tell her to take to the dealer when I found this video. Thanks for sharing this info, That was the problem.
Your the man, I did everything, new coils new crank sensor , watched tons of videos, knew it was something electrical, finally came across this video and bam 10 minutes later she’s up and running.
I'm having the same problem. I just can't SEE exactly what he did here. I'm a chick that isn't stupid with cars and mechanics but what do I need to get: a ground snap? How do I connect it to what wire? The black ground. I get that, but do I peel back to expose the wire? How do I connect? I need simple steps. Please. Where do I get a ground snap? I'm not calling and paying a mechanic. I am the mechanic.
FINALLY, AWESOME VIDEO!! I am having the same problem with my 05 Escalade, same motor. Had it at 3 shops so far with no solutions. If i have to drag it home AGAIN, this will be the 1st thing I look at. Thanks for sharing!!
Dude I can't thank you enough for the help! I have an 04 Silverado and it's my work horse and parked it running fine then went to start it and just cranked and cranked. NO SPARK, GOOD FUEL PRESSURE I was stumped for several hours came across this video did exactly what you said and BOOM back in business!!!
This ground that over time corrodes and needs the eyelet replaced is under the left exhaust manifold near the front of the engine. Follow the negative ground from the battery down to where it meets the small ground wire that attaches to the main ground on the engine. If you look through the bottom part of the wheel well with a flashlight, you can see the 13 mm ground bolt that holds the grounds to the engine. From the top side with a 13 mm deep socket and five-inch extension on my 3/8 drive ratchet I could loosen the bolt. The bolt is short, so when loosened reach down and take it off by hand. The small, loomed wire which is short coming out of the harness is the one you need to replace the eyelet. I replaced with a shrink wrap type eyelet that makes the connection waterproof. Hope this helps with this repair.
Thank you for your video, I have a 2003 GMC that stopped running on the highway didn't have no idea what was wrong and you saved the day. I just want to thank you very much.
'04 avalanche 5.3l, truck rough started for a week then just died. Had it at the mechanics, spent $1000 trouble shooting, replaced computer and nothing. Had it towed home and was going to clean it out and sell for parts when my buddy sent me this video. And now I don't have to sell it because this fixed it! Thanks!
Life saver, thanks brother! I replaced cam and crank sensor. Checked everything i could think of, spent hours and hours looking it over. Did this trick and boom running within 2 minutes.
What he did i cant undrestand his english he give ground wire which is red colour to black colour is this black colour wire of coil or distributor?? Plz tell me
I have a 05 Tahoe 4.8 doing the same shit. I did put a crank shaft position sensor, same thing cranks but does not run. Then I seen your clip, gotta admit, I was optimistic and doubtful. Did exactly what you did etc, now it runs no problem, the highlight is the ol’ lady is off my back......for now. Thank you much!!!!!
@@CantKillMeSay my man's I know nothing about cars wondering where that piece on a 2000 Silverado I would do that too. I'm literally having a crisis. Like literally
You sir deserve an appluse from me and everyone else this video helped! Thank you so much for taking the time to video this and love the honesty at the end.
Thank you sir!!! I've been looking all over my suburban" changing spark plugs'wires, fuel pump' and knock senors!! And ran across this video and bam, that was it, same ground!! Runs perfect now!! Before it would run 10-15 minutes and then shut down!!
I have an 04 chevy hd 2500 with the 6.0 in it and I was having the same problem crank but not start, tried this in the video and it works, she lives again thank you
Got the fuel pump changed, then the mechanic changed the crank position censer but in the end your video saved the day. Thanks. My truck was a 2006 silverado extended cab with 5.3 L
Worked exactly like the video. I always try the cheapest options first when you are throwing parts at it, and a wire and a few connectors under 20 buck who knows how much money and time you saved me. Thanks man God bless you.
Thanks man I have been working on my truck for about a month on and off and I found your video today I went out and tried it it fired right up I really appreciate your help! God bless 🙏
GOD FUCKING BLESS YOU MAN! I’ve been getting attacked financially and I wasnt going to make it. But you have given me hope again !! I TRUST YOUR WORD OTHER THAN ANYBODY ELSE AT THIS POINT
Brother you have saved me over $900 dollars in parts the mechanic said I needed. I had the same exact symptoms and did just like u did with ground wire and BAMMM!!! RUNNING PERFECTO!!! THANK U SO MUCH!!
I won’t to say thank u so much for this video I spent $500.00 and still could not figure it out Intell I seen this video it was the ground so thank u rom the bottom of my heart
Thank you for this Information......My Nephews Truck is a 2004 Chevy Silverado 4.8 Liter....Regular cab (118/119/120 Wheel Base however you measure we measured Center to Center) 78" Bed ( Shortbed ) Ordered a Fuel Filter $12 from Rock Auto could not find it on the Rail.....found out it was in the Tank.....Called the Dealership they said $800 or more for Fuel Pump ( do not know IF it is an all in One or IF the Fuel Filter is seperate in the Tank etc. So we came across your Video.....Told Dad to try it so he watched the Video and skinned back the Back Wire Ran a Jumper Wire and Grounded it AND....... IT FIRED RIGHT UP......$AVED $$$$$$$$
Man, Thank You, Thank You. After replacing spark plugs, crank sensensor, camsahaft sensor,wires and half my brain and time,.... etc...etc...., 5 minutes following your fix and boom, the truck started right up. Thank You.
I did exactly what you said I replaced the fuel pump but your wire truck worked and when I take the wire off it dies just like yours thanks Tom from Boston thanks your the fucken man
man had this problem happen to me exactly today....everything is alike but mine is not 4x4....they lag on cranking and everything then just went out while doing 55-60 mph....I know what I gotta do tomorrow...thank you saved me hundreds of the scarce bucks
Hey buddy I wanted to say thank you very much just got off of a 16-hour shift working my ass off pouring concrete all day got back to my vehicle and it wouldn't start I did exactly like you said and she fired right up thank you very much
When I took my lower intake off I noticed that very same wire split and grounded to the lower intake bolt on passenger side. I thought that it was something that got stuck up underneath a bolt but it wasn't...thanks man! P.S. chevy s10 4.3 v6 4x4 2003
Thanks, I was 80 miles from home when there was a total loss of power. Had no clue what was going on cause it happened so fast. Got stuck in a bad place on a road so was forced to use tow truck because I tried to turn into a parkinglot a little early so got stuck on a curb and it was impossible to move my suburban by pushing it. Got screwed on the towing cost to move it 100 feet (almost $400 for 100 feet distance). Anyway, tried this and connected it to ground and it started running like crap with a really loud tick, but after a few minutes of running it sounds normal. I'm assuming that the PCU had to adjust. But at least it started running. I'll update tomorrow to see if the tick is something that happens when it's cold vs warmed up, hopefully not and the computer just needed to correct itself. Also, I found it strange because I tested the wire to see if it was connected by connecting positive to the black wire's pin and it was lighting up fine. No idea why that was working but the car wouldn't run like that.
You my friend are the man! I've been scratching my head and motherfing everything. Did this and solved my problem, spent $500 in parts today and still nothing until I replaced this ground, thank you!!
Yup, Same here.... Changed the Crank sensor no help... Jumped a ground to this wire and boom.... So that ground is broken or corroded somewhere... I don't care where I am just adding this jumper. Truck is 05 2500hd 6.0L and is pretty rusty I have already replaced main ground cable and the braiding motor to firewall ground previously as preventive. Def a fail point on these. Thanks so much for making a video on this. I didn't spend much diagnostic time prior to finding this thank god but you bet you just saved me countless hours of frustration.
Dude… this solved our problem with 2004 5.3 reg fuel. He had no 5v signal coming from the ecu to all the coil packs… cranks, but no spark. changed crank, cam sensors, coils, wires,plugs, rear o2 sensors, 1 fuel injector, had mechnics look at truck…no fix. truck got stranded and towed once… 3 weeks of this crap… and it turned out to be this exact same ground issue… note… we had to run a tap ground to both cylinder banks… no more misfires, truck run fine now. … thanks for adding the passionate explanation and the …we fixed it with an old 6ft extention cord for the tap grounds. Could have fixed this for $0 …I feel your aggravation…. This likely applies to all GM 5.3 and possibly 4.3 and others… bad GM grounds. Thanks for sharing! Hope this helps many! Frank
So my 4.3 ltr is a little different and i only have one coil on the passenger side right next to my icm, do you know where it is? My truck has been sitting for 3 months
Hey Can't Kill Me. Thanks for taking the time to film this video. I am an avid DIY youtube publisher and know exactly how much work it takes. Your symptoms and my symptoms were identical. I checked fuel pressure (good), compression (good) and finally spark (bad). I verified there was a poor ground on the black wire before adding a jumper to the firewall ground stud. All good now!
Duuuude! My truck is broke down on the side of the road right now and I’m going to try getting it going today when I get off work. I hope this is the problem. Because this is exactly what my truck was doing.
Wow. You just got my 2003 Silverado 5.3L started an hour ago! It all started when I went outside one summer morning to start her up; she cranked but would not start...just like your video. Changed the plugs and plug wires, checked engine compression, checked fuel pressure, etc, etc. There was no spark at the plugs. Since the dang truck has no distributor, I was lost and the truck just sat there for months. Was about to give up and take her into the shop and likely get hammered for $1000 likes you said. After 25+ youtube videos I stumbled across yours...spliced in a new ground just like you showed me...started up 5 min later like new! Thanks very much. I just made a $25 one-time payment to your Patreon.
@@CantKillMe Apparently, my credit card doesn't get charged unless you post some crap to Patreon before the end of the month. Anything. It could be a video of the clouds or whatever; I don't care. First time using Patreon...I guess I'll use PayPal next time. Thanks again for your help; I really appreciate it. Have a good week!
@@CantKillMe I have a 2004 silverado 5.3 ive been havin problems with the vats and the other day lost all power engine runs rough threw code random multiple misfiring po300 did tune up plugs and wired cleared all codes ran like new for hour or so no codes check engine lite off went to put it in gear it stalled runs rough again check engine lite flashing so ran scan on it again ... No codes found.. But now just cranks and vats security lites on ... Im stuck now but it sits overnight and will start right up revs nice runs smooth after about hour runs rough and stalls again...im going to look into grounds next just watched your video ..hopefully this will work out my gremlins...
Just tried this on my 2004 z71 Tahoe and it fired right up. I been through so many new parts and even a whole column assembly and didn’t get any results until I tried this! Thanks a million!
Man I know you heard this before but thank you, your vid just saved me from going insane. I can't afford dealer prices and without this vid I wouldn't of been able to get to work and I would've been up shits creek. Ty again.
You are a gift from God my brotha! My truck has been sitting more than 2 months not knowing what was wrong with it. I replaced the fuel pump, maf, map, crank position, camshaft position sensors and none of them seem to work until I came across your video!! Thanks brotha!
I have an 04 with the 4.3 in it with the same problem. My problem is I don’t have the same set up as you and don’t know which wires your actually using. Anyway you could lead me in the right direction?
I just got stranded at tha dump truck just turned off was there for an hour figuring out wat was tha problem came across ur video did wat you said nd BAM started thanks bro video really helped
Thanks so much for this video.. I couldn't figure out what was going on with my truck n I seen this video n tried it n now it's running better than ever before. I'm moving n everything else n put 200 plus in my truck so this video helped me so much.. thanks so much
Hey good video its appreciated I'm having this exact problem i went to clean the engine bay and it wouldn't start after and I spent more time on the passenger side but do you think that could be my issue?I've got no trouble codes
@@MacAutoDiag sure you can we did it at both dealerships I've worked at. As a matter of a fact the snap on guy sold a cool air powered nozzle for soap and degreaser that you used before "Hose down your engine bay" I literally have done it hundreds of times to customers cars not to mention my own trucks constantly.
I am haveing problem with no start have power to starter have good relay ? Checked the neutral safey switch ? What am i not getting power battery is good ? Help if any one is listening need to go to work tomarrow!

Thanks so much for this video.. I couldn't figure out what was going on with my truck n I seen this video n tried it n now it's running better than ever before. I'm moving n everything else n put 200 plus in my truck so this video helped me so much.. thanks so much
Hey good video its appreciated I'm having this exact problem i went to clean the engine bay and it wouldn't start after and I spent more time on the passenger side but do you think that could be my issue?I've got no trouble codes
You're not supposed to just hose down your engine bay🤦
@@MacAutoDiag sure you can we did it at both dealerships I've worked at. As a matter of a fact the snap on guy sold a cool air powered nozzle for soap and degreaser that you used before "Hose down your engine bay" I literally have done it hundreds of times to customers cars not to mention my own trucks constantly.
Anyone have a clue where that same wire would be on a 2005 Silverado with 4.3l ??? Cannot seem to find it ???
