Hello together,
First of all, thank you for the answers you have given so far.
You may notice as a reader, how I am very slowly step by step. For someone who has disassembled the interior of his Blazer endless times, it is 12 screws and 4 handles.
For me it was 5 sweats, always a checking look...
I have of course turned the switch lever "right" and "left" around several times. Thus - according to my understanding - tested the dimming function.
Headlights, marker lights go. Lamps (bulbs) in the display area (speedometer) go.
Does it make a difference in which final end orientation the...
OK...
Moving on...
Last weekend was again an "oldtimer" working day.
First of all for explanation:
The M1009 is about 20 - 24 min car ride away, dry and safe in an underground garage. it does not have a drop of oil underneath and nothing is running or leaking. But it has all the necessary...
Hello dear Steelsoldier Community,
Does anyone know a source where to get this military metal plate regarding the light circuit? (See picture)
Of course it can be a remake, if it is half like the original.
It seems that one of the previous owners of my M1009 took it out and pasted small signs...

Can you write me how heavy is the book and my second question, is it more comprehensive than the online PDF manuels to the Blazer K5 or is it more of a 1:1 paper version?
Basically I am looking for someone - here from the forum - who really lives in the USA, to whom I can buy the part and who will ship it to me the cheapest way.
That would definitely be good. I've already got some digital stuff now.
I would be really interested if I were to buy the book in the USA and he were to send it on to me, whether this shipping would then be cheaper.
Hello dear SteelSoldiers Community,
at all stores or Ebay sellers of the book "Service Manual Chevrolet Chevy Light Duty Truck Series 10-30" it is the same, the purchase and shipping to Germany is at 100 euros and more.
Now my question would be to someone who lives in the USA, how much would...
Questions about a Chevrolet Blazer K5 / M1009, first registration 1986
So, the speedometer and fuel gauge remain "Dark".
It is only about the "backlight".
I checked the "dim" function, but it was not the cause of the missing background light.
Here is a picture of the fuses...
"Step by Step"
First, many thanks to the other answers regarding the "Lisle 65750 Windshield Tool". I wrote that you can find it with a little search on Amazon.
So the topic is, for me, clarified.
Engine compartment cleaning or also "engine wash".
Puhhh, who pulls here the Internet to the...
Wiper Adjusted and new wiper blades mounted
Unfortunately, I was not so "lucky" with the second To Do.
OK, I have checked the dimming function of the light on the Tacometer. Unfortunately, it is not the easy way, because the light did not go.
So I have to check the illumination of the...
Thanks for the many and quick responses.
OK, so rear window I have to clean the tailgate open and clean the side rails and check everything for "easy going", clean and oil. Had already thought of it that way.
I was kind of hoping if it is a "more common" issue after all, that there would be...
Does anyone know where I can find - in which TM or PDF - information on:
Adjustment of the windshield wipers
and the "easier gearability" produce the rear window?
(The driver's wiper goes down too far and the rear window goes really really hard).
I'm just wondering if it's worth it. In Ebay Germany, the book costs 97 euros and 70 euros shipping. That was the reason why I asked how much it costs to ship a book from the USA to Germany.
@Guyfang - Have you found another Ebay offer, or is it the for over 70 euros + 50 - 70 euros shipping...
There are some points that I need to adjust, because I do not feel "safe" when I drive.
When I turn on the light, I have no speedometer illumination, which is really "annoying" just in the twilight.
:cautious:
If necessary I would like to renew the 3 point belts, but am not yet clear about the...
Hello dear Steel Solieders community,
let's perpetuate the little project of mine in this thread.
Introduction:
I bought an M1009 to tide me over. It is still 2/3 owned by the bank. The idea is, I'm still waiting for a "better" prepared Blazer K5 M1009, but whether I always put the money on...
Does anyone know how expensive it is to ship a book from the US to Germany? They want 82 USD in the one - linked - store.
So then the shipping would be as expensive as the book
