"Mastering Summer Cool: Optimizing Your Vehicle's Cabin Air for Comfort"
Keeping your vehicle cool in the summer by using cabin air instead of outside air involves optimizing the air conditioning system and making use of a few strategic techniques. Here’s a detailed guide on how to achieve this:

- **AC Inspection and Maintenance:** Ensure your vehicle’s AC system is in good working condition. This includes checking refrigerant levels...

Thank you so much for your clear instructions. It worked beautifully and saved us a tow and unnecessary expense.
@@DeniseMochamer you are so welcome have a wonderful day 😊
I thought taking the back seat out of my wife's Deville was a pain to change the battery. Now I miss the good old days. Never noticed the handle hooks to hold the cover up. Thanks for that and the video.
Great job, I like badges too
Hello my old friend
thank-you for making this video
Clarence, you made my day. Bought a 2020 Rst and what do you know I found a dude with the exact same truck. Got a $75 fob on Amazon, and you did it!! Thanks a million, and heartfelt Memorial Day vibes to you.

Absolutely excellent advice. I just bought a 2016 CT6, had it two weeks only and it hit me minutes ago..."what if I need a jump?" I opened the trunk and well.....LOL...no battery. So thank you for explaining so easily this.

How to unlock a steering wheel on a 2020 Chevy Silverado RST
I have two original fobs. I am replacing one original fob. Do I have to reprogram both fobs or just the new one?
What a pain in the ass to just change the battery.
My trunk manual opener not working, and the key fob isn’t working either. Has that ever happened to you? And how am I supposed to go about opening the trunk?
Open the truck with a end of a broom key might be dead put the key in the key fob slot in the center consel there’s a key fob slit
Wow! I can’t believe it’s that easy
Yes Sir it really is
Thank you Clarence , I had no idea that it was that easy thanks to you and the way you maid it .
Shut the music down please
Not sure I understand why are you programming the key for that came with your vehicle, unless it’s a brand new one.
When do you take the key out of the door? Does the key need to go back in the transmitter to program? That’s never mentioned
Great help.
Thanks
Hello, I get a warning on my display - Replace Battery in Remote Key? Even after I replace it? Any Suggestions?
Thank you I have the same problem I will check it 🎉out
Thank you
Ur welcome Javana
Cool
Thanks man! You make the world a better place.
Thank you!!! I was just going to search through my owner's manual to try to figure this out!
So I have one of my fob keys from my last 2023 Silverado Rst that was totally crashed 7 days after I got it from the dealer, now I got another exact same car and I am wondering if I could add my old key from my previous car as the 3rd key of my new one. Is this possible to do it, using this process? Thank you in advance.
Appreciate the video🙌🏽.
Easy, cheap fix, thanks to you good sir! -2011 Escalade
Thank you for your service. and thanks for the info
What type of battery
Match the number on the back of the battery. The brand name is not that important
did not really see it, but is that a 55 or 56 chevy next to your truck?
It's a 53 Chevy Deluxe 210
Hey clarence . Did you still have the 2018-19 game vs grays creek?
I think so, who might this be
I was a senior at GC that year . I used to watch the game all the time . Even the year before when you guys whooped us at home lol .
Will this work on a 2017 Tahoe
I'm not sure, might want to research first
My display is working, but the blower motor is not. I haven't checked the rear yet. Is that what was happening to your climate control? If so I'll do your procedure. Thanks
I know what that safe is for. Seeing as you appear to be former military. But, thx for the vid was wondering how to get the battery out.
Hopefully this works on a 03 i appreciate the information sir
Thank you so much for your video! I was able to fix this myself for $20!! And I’m back on the road!!
Good
short and sweet, thanks!
