2013 Chevy Express 3500 LT No Air From Dash Panel Vents
First, I apologize for how many times I said 'um' in this video! That's me trying not to speak like an angry Marine and trying to sound unthreatening.
Also, I had already taken things apart before I figured out how to fix this, but I still hope I made it simple enough to understand where and how.
I also didn't show the end result in the video, but this definitely fixed it. It was a hose that runs in between the battery and the rear side of the engine compartment. That hose connects to a softball-shaped black ball that's located under the battery shelf.
I don't believe that you have to remove the battery or the coolant reservoir, but it made things much easier for me. Not sure of its techni...

How I Removed A Bad 02 Sensor In A 2015 Chevy Malibu
Просмотров 14 тыс.Год назад
Like the title says, this is how I removed the upstream sensor (Bank 1, Sensor 1) in a 2015 Chevy Malibu. As far as I know, 2013 and 2014 Malibus are designed the same way. There are two 02 sensors in this car. This video is for the UPSTREAM Sensor. If any more clarification is needed, just ask in the comments and I'll be sure to try and help. I used this method on my 2000 Chrysler 300M as well...
2015 Chevy Malibu Humming Rear Speakers
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.2 года назад
I explain how I got rid of the humming noise from the rear speakers even though there is no factory amp on this particular model (2015 Chevy Malibu [LT - base model] 2.5L engine. After nearly a week of searching, forums, manuals and all else, it came down to simply disconnecting the OnStar unit since I don't use it. if you do use OnStar then you'll have to figure out the wire that's causing the...
Spark Plug Tube Seal Removal
Просмотров 10 тыс.5 лет назад
Sometimes we overlook the clues on the easiest way to get things done. That's what I did when I grabbed needle-nosed pliers and tried to pull the spark plug tube seal out, tearing it and making more work for myself. This is actually how I removed them.
How To Remove A Stripped O2 Sensor
Просмотров 32 тыс.6 лет назад
This is how I removed a stripped o2 sensor. I also add a few more ways that could probably help.
Out of all the videos ive seen, this was the one that actually worked. Thank you!!
Glad to help!
U weird asf
Thanks for the video I'm definitely not paying anyone when I can do it myself
Thanks for this video very helpful
I just use a pipe wrench it works great and easy
Bruh you literally talk TOO DAMN MUCH JUST. CHANGE THE DAMN THING
Thanks!
I'm confused. U put the tape on the outside of the socket? How do that help the socket fit the o2 sensor more snug?
The tape goes on the inside of the socket. I stuck it outside then stuffed the other end on the inside.
@@carlstewart1963 I literally just figured it out a hour ago. Stripped it yesterday and this method got it out immediately. Appreciate it
Good vid
While I’m driving my car would jerk like slightly accelerating and stoping but only for a second and it would do that frequently while driving ????
I'm sorry but are you asking a question? That doesn't seem like it has anything to do with O2 sensors. If you don't have a manual then I would Google the year of your Malibu plus those symptoms. Chances are someone, somewhere has experienced the same problem you're having.
@@carlstewart1963 I mean the o2 censor came up on the diagnostic so I was just wondering if that had anything to do with o2
"Good job very good job. I just did the same thing that you just did. but mine is different It's a chevy econage the space is very limited . I have to break the head of it off because that 02 sensor modify socket sucks all it really did is stripped the nut. To me it is only for putting the new one back on. So i broke the head off the oxygen Sensor down to the nut. I bought A breaker bar and did the same thing with a regular socket. ( Where to go Mcgiver..
This may not reach you and it might, but do you remember any symptoms the car had before you had to change that sensor?
I don't recall there being any noticeable symptoms other than the check engine light being on and the car not passing emissions testing.
@@carlstewart1963 OK, thanks

That's what I've always heard them called was Dikes
Awesome very good information bro thank you
HEY,,,, Thanks Much for putting this up. You're really thorough and cover the details well. It's a lot of work and you did a good job with this video.... Very helpful.
Thank you
Thank you so much, been ripping mine apart for the last 30 minutes
thanks
Had to do the downstream sensor on wife's 16' Malibu, pulled the exhaust manifold heat shield, went from underneath to remove sensor, heated with torch for 15-20 seconds, then it came loose. Now the fun part is getting to that damned plug! Can't get to with hand so used a long flat head to slide the white tab back, then had wife push down on button with crow bar and I went in from side with flat head to get in between both connectors and walked it off. Trying to get new one back on is just a pure nightmare and have no good suggestions
I was just about to ask how the hell to get that downstream sensor disconnected on a 2017 So far, it’s a pain in the ass

@@carlheadley9124 good luck, it was a miracle I got it! But to add insult to injury, it worked well for about a month and started again with engine light. It's been a while but something I looked up and can't remember the reason but I unhooked the MAF sensor while the car was running and turned off car and plugged MAF back in and started car again and it disappeared and haven't seen engine light for about a year now. Very strange but worked
Great job on this video! Very clear and really helpful! Thanks!
Lifesaver lol at first I went straight in with the needle nose pliers
This is a really good vid! gonna try these tommorow, the conclusion was very helpful as well!
I have tried everything to no avail for about 3 months. I will try your method and see how it goes. Thanks for the technique.
I hope it helps.
Saved me a lot of time thank you
I know this video is 4 years old, but i wanted to say thank you. Mine was stuck. i used the o2 socket stripped a bit but broke the stem off and used a 22mm worked bravo brother. Thank you
Thanks for the video!
Hey man, you have a o2 downstream sensor guide? Sensor 2? Thanks
Sorry. I haven't had to do that one yet.
Would this be something that shows up when the heater & defrost are on ?Dealership said it was mass air flow sensor due to the P1101 code but that’s newly replaced a day and a half later the engine light is on again. Also starting to smell a light rotten egg smell when I cut the heater on, so does this sensor play a role in the catalytic converter. I have a 2020 Chevy Malibu by the way.
I don't think that was the code I pulled for needing that sensor replaced and those symptoms I haven't had. You could Google those symptoms with the year and make of your car and see if anyone else has had this and what caused it. That's what I would do. I don't think they make a Haynes manual yet for that year so I would Google it. I will break my manual out anyway to see if these symptoms appear in an earlier year but it's in my Malibu and won't be home until tomorrow.
You the man!!!saved me so much headache.
Thanks
No problem!
Why did you replace to oxygen sensor? Because I’m having trouble with my girls Chevy malibu 15” idles hard when you come to a stop while in drive.
Are you asking why I replaced it? I have an OBD II reader and pulled a code that says why the check engine light was on. I then looked the code up and confirmed what sensor was going bad. Is your engine light on? If it is, did you pull a code? What was the code?
@@carlstewart1963 ok makes sense, nah no code man that’s part of the problem. Took it to the dealer and they brush it off, said there was nothing they can do, due to no check engine or fault codes.
Yeah, it messes them up when the light isn't isn't on. That means there's no code for them to pull. So you can go to an aut parts store like AutoZone or Advanced Auto Parts and see if they have a Haynes Manual for the year, make and model of her car. Inside the manual you can look up the symptoms in the trouble shooting section. Or you can also Google the symptoms along with the year, make and model of the car and see if it's a common issue and what night be the cause. And go from there.
I got this replaced and my engine light came right back on help
@@sweetladyakvv0498 I just now saw this. It looks like you sent this a couple of months ago. Did you ever get the problem solved?
Good looking out. Saved my life lol
Thinks a lot young man .I just started on mine and didn't no what to do. Take Care
There was a video made on RUclips where a guy used a hose clamp on those open slot sockets to keep pressure so that the socket wouldn't open up while you were turning on it he said it worked well
Cool. Thanks for the info!
If only I watched this first. At least I only tore one up a bit before I came here. All 4 POPPED right out using this method. Thanks.
Thank you brother. 🙌
Thank you so much man……🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hey bro just wanted to say thank you so much. I just spent the last half hour trying to break off every last please of rubber. My sales were torn and having a hard time. And this video completely help me out. This man knows what he’s doing and it’s just making a video to help y’all out. Thank you bro very helpful
Putting a hose clamp around the lambda sensor socket can help prevent them spreading just enough so you can free the sensor Good tip to have tho, using the tape
Good job Homie!
You ain't kidding brother this is a pain in the ass. It's a 96 Toyota Celica motor so it's been in there for a while. I think that this is the hardest part of the whole job. I was hoping to find a magic trick LOL 😂
Did it work for you?
Sort of. I had to use a couple of standard crewdrivers
@@carlstewart1963 I had to use a tiny screwdriver to break the seal a little bit on the outer perimeter and then put the screwdriver in and keep tapping it until it popped out a couple of times I had to use the needle nose.
I haven’t tried it yet but my dad always uses a pipe wrench in combination with heating it up and the pb blaster but he has never not gotten one out so it’s always possible
22" extractor will do the best result after cut off old sensor .
I'll tell you what...I have the deep well and 3/8 offset O2 sockets, wrapped with a hose clamp, I used Freeze off spray, a torch and heat gun...all resulting in rounding off the sensor...I watched a dozen other videos with no luck, frustrated as a MF'er.....until...I watched yours....Took some electrical tape wrapped one layer completely around the inside of my 7/8 socket...and less than 30 seconds later it broke free and was out!!! Thank You bigtime!!! It worked like a charm....thanks bro!!!
Glad it worked for you!
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. You saved me a lot of time and frustration.
Helpful af, thank you.
Thank you.
Good video here. If I could make a couple of suggestions though... I would be real careful not to pry, or press anything on your valve cover seal, or the machined groove it fits in. Damaging the seal is one thing, but damaging the cover is worse. And this isn't so much a suggestion, maybe more of a pointer... I like how you used the flat head on the underside of the seal. You don't want to damage the cover at all if you can avoid it, but especially the surface that will mate with the outside diameter of your oil seal. Cause what these seals are is a metal clad oil seal, very similar to a metal clad wiper on a hydraulic cylinder, only the wiper won't hold any pressure. The oil seal, sometimes called a shaft seal is made to actually hold pressure. Not sure how much in the case of a car but alot of the ones I've seem in hydraulics shops hold low pressure. Like 10-15 psi. So if that side wall of that cover that mates with the OD of the oil seal gets damaged it'll allow oil to pass right by it. Anyway, not trying to give negative criticism. I think you did a good job on the video. Thanks for sharing!
Good stuff. Thanks, man!
Those o2 Sensor sockets are really bad, they will destroy the edges if the sensor does not come out very easy.
i bought a cheap breaker bar. i hate it sooooooo much. really tough to get the sockets in and the sockets fall off with the breeze
