    Accelerator replacement

    I've had more luck on parts from junkyards than Part Stores. Dealers are so expensive when they can get the part, they think this is Rolls Royce and not a 23 year old Chevrolet.

    Head gasket build

    Dang man, what a find! Been deep in my motor before and know how discouraging it can be. Good work!

    Lifted truck, airbag options?

    I go down and talk to those guys. Thanks for the response! Yeah, 6" front, 4" rear, verified via the blocks. It looks like my frame at one time had a air bags on it. I always wondered about that since I have the bolt holes and wiring in the bed for a 5'th wheel.

    Lifted truck, airbag options?

    I have a 6" lift on my truck, and we recently purchased a travel trailer. It tows fine, but it sags a little more than I like. Are there any good options for airbags on my truck?

    03 LB7 security light

    Light is still on, I've learnt to ignore it since it doesn't hurt anything. My cheap Chinese software based Tech2 stopped working, so I haven't been able to dig in anymore.

    LB7 no start

    If you have access to a tech2, you should check the fuel pressure while cranking. I had the same symptoms and it ended up being the CP3, which looks to be the only thing you didn't replace on your list :)

    No start, no codes, this truck is killing me!

    Glad to hear it that it was a easier fix. Good luck with your leak finding.

    2002 LB7 Voltage Issues

    Since it does it only when the CTS is plugged in I would say that pointes to your issue there, even more so since it happened after a software update. If you keep your Edge, my advice is find a good version and stick with it. I updated mine just before a day trip out and ended up unplugging it...

    2002 LB7 Voltage Issues

    @kevincolyar it was all over the place for me. It started with the fuel gauge would read off the chart until I reset the CTS/Juice, some times I would get a no start, other times it would randomly die. I think my issues were more related to the Juice module, but I couldn't figure out how to...

    2002 LB7 Voltage Issues

    I finally took out my Edge because of all the weird issues it caused on the truck. It’s a fun product, but it causes issues. Do you have the juice too, or it’s the CTS? I do miss having the correct speed and some other gagues, but a gauge pod and no electrical issues is a worthwhile replacement.

    No start, no codes, this truck is killing me!

    You could get about 5’ of line and use a 5gal diesel container off the side of the truck bypassing the tank for supply. I replaced my soft lines when troubleshooting my bad CP3 in the hopes it was that but no luck. When my CP3 died, it died silently. I drove the truck about 50 miles with no...

    Head gaskets or something else?

    I just got done replacing my motor due to a bad head gasket that caused a cylinder to hydro-lock and bend a rod, so I'm well versed in this area... 95% of the time, the head gaskets on LB7 are the cause of pressure in the coolant system. If you are going to get down to the cups, there's really...

    Injectors from Oregon Fuel Injection

    I've been running injectors from OFI for about three years without a problem. I had to replace a CP3 here recently and I used one of theirs as well and have had no issues. Guys are knowledgeable, and can't really say I've ever had any issues with them or their products.

    03 LB7 security light

    @dndj I did as you suggested and I do get a valid code and the voltage is slightly below the cutoff (4.25). Could that voltage be too close to the cutoff for it? I also started the truck afterwards and looked for any changes between the two screens and the only difference I noticed was...

    03 LB7 security light

    Oh shoot forgot to type it out but, yeah no codes from the BCM. I'll take a look at the connections and make sure they are in good communication with each other.
  16. mojito5000

    03 LB7 security light

    Yes, the exact same problem. I've had the truck for about 4 years, and the light was on from when I purchased it. BCM is under the steering column, and ECM is on the fan shroud, correct? Do you know which pins connect the two computers? One other thing, my security light is on from the...

    03 LB7 security light

    As you can see from my snippings, PCM / VCM Fail Enable is YES and the passlock state is Normal Decision. Would a relearn fix this? I do recall doing one when I first got the truck many years ago....

    03 LB7 security light

    Were you able to solve this? I'm having the same issue. I tried to check my security light with the tech2, and I can see where it's requested, but I don't know enough of the other values to know which one is out of spec to cause the light. Does anyone have experience troubleshooting this with...

    No start, no codes, this truck is killing me!

    I did the bottle test and the pump was not holding pressure from the hand pump. Got a reman Bosch unit from Oregon Fuel Injection a week ago and the truck back :). Thanks, @2004LB7 for your help! I really appreciate it.

    No start, no codes, this truck is killing me!

    Ahh, gotcha. I did do the paper-towel oil test and no halo, the oil level is middle of the stick, just as it was when I changed the oil. I'll pull the return line off the CP3 tomorrow and try that. Thanks for the help!
