QUICK THERMOSTAT REPLACEMENT ON A 2020 BLAZER LGX ENGINE P0128 DTC. REPLACED THE THERMOSTAT ON THIS BLAZER EASIER THAN I EXPECTED CHECK IT OUT. #automobile #chevrolet #blazer #lgx
I literally took my car to a shop to get an estimate to replace the thermostat housing and I was quoted $881!!! The man said bc it’s a three hour labor job. Definitely not paying no mechanic to do this thanks to your video.
For anyone stuck trying to get that out of sight bolt off for the pipe that goes to the thermostat - remove the ecm board mount and battery bracket Makes it way easier
I'm sorry for what I'm going to say but. You are just explaining the easy part of it. You are not explaining the hardest part, you're not explaining the how do you take out the bolt down on the back, the one that tie down the hose that hold the fucken thermostat. And you don't also explain how to disconnect all the small aluminum hoses stick to the engine above the thermostat. Also you forgot to tell that you can brake the thermostat in 2 pieces inside the engine block too. If you are going to make a video explaining people how to do something, do it right all with all the steps no just the easy parts.
@trydecaddyz6831 did that fix there issue? I have a 2019 chevy blazer same exact problem with mine steering assist disabled temperature is all the way on cold fan runs constantly no ac then check engine light comes on then all of it goes away. My car is not running warm at all no missing antifreeze no leaks
My 2020 Chevy Blazer had the exact same problem! I just got quoted from the Chevy dealership to replace the thermostat. Around $1700 total. 250 for the inspection to tell me that was the issue, 250 for the parts, and 1200 for the labor. That seems really high, is it?? I originally took it to a Firestone and a Wheel works and they both didn’t have the equipment to inspect the AC system so I went to the dealership. Thanks for the video btw, super helpful to see.
The hard part was removing all the crap on top. With the correct size sockets, if you have some mechanical knowledge, you should be able to do this. Draining the coolant shouldn't be a problem. Just take your time and if you need to take pictures as you're taking stuff off. Totally blown away by what some are saying the cost at a dealer to replace a simple thermostat. BTW, thanks GM for making parts that don't last 5 years.
