I'm sorry, but can relate. I have the same diagnosis. Seven back surgeries and the rest I don't want to get into. I really appreciate your help because it save wear and tear on me. Thanks again.

Thank you, that helps a lot as I've no access to what wire does what, mostly cause I never had the need in the dozen years I've had this truck. All my other steel is precomputer and have had electrical issues, but I know what every wire goes to. Thanks again, and how are you feeling these days?

Thanks again, I ordered a new nsbu switch and thinking about new plugs as I think they maybe the issue. I am going to unplug and replug existing electronics , as they went in as hard as they came out. I really need to use this truck for a job.

That's the shaft from the shifter and there is the offset black rod that moves the that black switch.

What is this switch?

Also, Great White(BJ) posted a TSBabout the shift selector from GM saying that the dielectric grease caused an inop issue which could a no reverse light issue, but this is from a company that changed IP's because of pmd. I'm not buying or replacing anything till I test electric current. I spent...

I used the existing shift selector that was on the transmission I installed. It shifts fine and the only issue I have is the input shaft vas code. Does the reverse lights go through this selector as well as the reverse switch on the column? I haven't had a chance to power probe the circuit yet...

You're talking abou the black box with the slide lock that pushes over the ball? I haven't gotten to the reverse issue yet. The shifter works fine and I haven't had a chance to jiggle the shifter yet. I am done with the front end work,and only the drivers side ball joint was bad, but I changed...

Also, would it cause no reverse lights? Or is that in the steering column?

SES code, I hate auto spell

I finally got carcode running checked the des code. P0717 turbine input shaft speed sensor A no signal received from power train control module. Ant input? Thanks

I'll just turn back the turn bolts some. I never touched them before, but as they're causing an issue its a no brainier.

It's upper and why I asked. I think a couple of turns back is in order. The shop put new ones in also. I replaced everything including bushings in a year and a half ago. But the truck sat since February when the the torque converter took out the transmission.

Another question, where is the reverse switch on this truck? That was the other issue with failed inspection. Bulbs are good.

The set on there now was NAPA severe duty. I bet they have maybe 10k on them, probably less as I killed the tranny awhile ago. I felt it on the way home and the drivers side moves freely just pulling on the tire in the driveway. The inspection before that a shop did it and I don't know who...

I'm off to get problem solvers now. I'd like to get rid of those torsion bars, but keep my red truck and get a HMMV. Nobody got rid of torsion bar for coils? It would free up a lot of space under the truck. I hate the torsion bars under my Colorado also, it just hasn't given me trouble yet. I'm...

I keep going through ball joints and I think the PO has the torsion bar cranked up. What is the starting point for factory settings. Do I need that key tool to loosen bolts? This is last set of ball joints before I switch to solid axle front end, I replaced everything related to steering and...

Thanks for all your help Ferm! It's done and shifts nicely. I flushed the hell out of the cooling system till it ran clear. Do you recommend dropping the pan and changing the filter again? Also, isopropyl alcohol softened the plugs enough to get the plugs on with less effort. The plugs probably...

I messed with the plugs today and it's not bent pins, it the old grease turned into glue like you said. Have you any thoughts as to softening the goo in the plug? WD40 worked better than PB. I'm thinking careful use of heat.

Thank you Ferm, that's what I thought, just making sure I'm not wasting my time. The pins are not aligned. I can see which pins are from the marks in the dielectric grease. If I get this done, I can drive my truck.
