Hello Richard I did a nationwide parts search and VPI there is none of these parts available. Has Brian, Jeff or anyone else come up with any ideas? The only choice I can think of is if you cannot find a used one is to have yours repaired or have someone make a new replacement...

Last week after I parked my truck, the coolant fan would not stop running. Three hours later, it was still going, and I had to disconnect the 12V battery to prevent it from being discharged. Brian at EVBones quickly diagnosed it as a bad Fan Buffer, a potted solid-state device...

"Commercial" is actually a good thing, in San Francisco anyway, where, if you have Commercial plates plus some kind of company logo on the side (magnetic signs are good for this), you can park in certain (most) Yellow loading zones. But to have it declared Commercial is an ele...

the argument that some supposed parts support law (if it even exists for other than emission parts) justifies the crushing is belied by manufacturer behavior with those vehicles which were truly unsafe and created serious liability problems for them (my memory starts with the...

The simple answer is GM did not sell the EV1 because it did not want to. GM sold the S-10 with exact same running gear as the EV1. There was less S-10 trucks on the road than the EV1 so the excuse of meeting some Federal law sounds like a ridiculous excuse. GM made a very limi...

Pick-ups are considered commercial and you'll pay not only the usual DMV fees, but a weight based fee. You can petition to change the registration to passenger vehicle. I did this with mine, and it reduced my annual DMV fees by almost $100. The truck has to have a camper shell...

To anyone interested: The 1997 model is substantially different from the 1998, and would be of little help, as the under-hood and cabin wiring are entirely different between these two model years. To make matters worse, the battery pack information is not detailed in the 1998...
