RE: Why Replace FDB Calipers?

FDB was my poor attempt at making an acronym of front disk brakes.

Anyway, if the rotors or pads don't show any unusual wear or signs of wear or binding, why not just change the pads and not...

Is this standard practice when replacing disc brake pads on a 1998 Blazer 2 door? Of course not, right?

RE: Cigarette Lighter Quit

I've only got one socket, also, but I appreciate this diagram. Now if I can only find this spare outlet, I'll be in great shape.

Any clues?

RE: Engine Compartment Light

It was hard enough to get the bulb out and then in again, but I'll give it a shot.

RE: Engine Compartment Light

So, if the light doesn't come on, I'm to assume the whole lamp socket needs to be replaced?

It's not on its own fuse, is it? I wouldn't think so.


Thanks!

Engine Compartment Light

That's a handy light under the hood, near the trailing edge. But mine isn't working.

As I've mentioned in previous posts, my recently acquired '98 Blazer is showing intermittant SES codes that come and go every few days.

OK, now does anyone know exactly what size speaker goes in the dash, that faces UP at the windshield?
