2003 Chevrolet Questions and Answers


  • Parts Needed to Install a Prodigy P2 Brake Controller on a 2003 Chevy Silverado
  • To see everything you will need to do to install a Prodigy Brake Controller # 90885 on your 2003 Chevy Silverado you will want to check out the FAQ article I attached. If you have a factory 7-way at the rear of your vehicle you will simply need a Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter # 3015-P and then you will need to plug that into the port under your dash to complete the install. The port will be under your dash in a junction box to the left of the brake pedal. If you do not have a factory 7-w

  • Availability of Mounting Kit for Discontinued Westin Grille Guard Part # 44-1170
  • The Westin part number you reference, # 44-1170, is no longer active in our system and we do not show any related components, such as mounting kits, still available. For reference, I have provided a link to our product page for all similar products for the 2003 Chevrolet Silverado 1500HD Crew Cab that are currently available from Westin and other manufacturers. The Westin Bull Bar most similar to the original part you referenced is # 31-5240. Installation instructions for this item are at

  • Where Does the C55355 Install On a 2003 Chevy Venture
  • This T-connector will plug into your vehicles wiring harness that is located in the rear cargo area of your van on the drivers-side. I have included a photo showing the location in the rear cargo area of a vehicle similar to yours. I would recommend using some dielectric grease # 11755 when you are installing this wiring harness, this can be used on all electrical connection points and it helps to prevent corrosion. After you have completed the installation of the wiring harness, the 4-w

  • Will the Hopkins Backup Sensor System, # HM60100VA, Fit a 2003 Chevy Tahoe
  • The steel bumper on your 2003 Chevy Tahoe may make the sensors on the Hopkins Backup Sensor System, # HM60100VA, go off but if this happens all you will need to do is adjust the sensors so it does not give you a false alert. Some customers have also used spacers to mount the unit out a little further so the sensors will clear an obstruction.

  • Suspension Enhancement for a 2003 Chevy Tahoe with Auto Level Rear Suspension
  • I recommend installing a set of Timbren springs for added support. They will provide the support you need without having to run air lines and fill up or deflate air bags. Please keep in mind that adding Timbren springs or any suspension enhancement product may not stop the auto-leveling motor from running, but there is a very good chance that it will. If you have a 4-wheel drive model use # TGMRG25C. For a 2-Wheel drive model use # TGMRYS4. Be sure to check your vehicle owners manual to make

  • Weight Distribution Recommendation for a 2003 Chevy Tahoe and 4,500 Pound Travel Trailer
  • When choosing weight distribution you want a system that has a tongue weight capacity that exceeds the total tongue weight of the trailer. You can figure the total tongue weight by taking the tongue weight of the trailer when loaded and ready to tow and then adding the weight of anything loaded behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. If 425 pounds is the dry tongue weight then it is likely to go higher when loaded. If it is close or above 600 then I recommend going up to the next higher syst

  • Gooseneck Trailer Hitch Plate to Fit in Place of RBW Lil Rocker 5th Wheel Hitch on a 2003 Silverado
  • I do know that the RBW Lil' Rocker 5th wheel hitch will fit in the standard above the bed rails that we carry. What I am not sure of is if the gooseneck plates we have that fit the above the bed rails will fit the RBW rails (if they are RBW rails). You will need to take some measurements of the rails to determine fit. I have included a picture showing the rail measurements our gooseneck plates will fit in. The plates will use the inner most set of mounting tabs on the rails, about 10 inches a

  • No 12 Volt Power Reaching Trailer Connector on 2003 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD
  • In later model years (2007-2011) Chevrolet did not complete all the trailer wiring connections, but this should not be the case in your 2003 Silverado. If your 7-way has worked previously then there is a chance the connector is corroded or damaged, or that the factory wiring has failed. Check for signs of whitish or greenish discoloration on the contacts and apply an electrical contact cleaner as needed. Inspect the connector for damage and to ensure all wiring to the connector pins are solid

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2003 Chevy Tracker behind a Motor Home
  • You will need to look up a 2003 Chevy Tracker because Geo ended in 1997. For a 2003 Chevy Tracker you can use the Blue Ox base plates # BX1636. For a compatible tow bar I recommend the Blue Ox Acclaim, # BX4330. It is rated for 5,000 pounds and also includes another item you will need, safety cables. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to view. Next you will need a lighting solution. If you will not be towing the Tracker very often I recommend a magnetic kit li

  • Towing Mirror Options for a 2003 Chevrolet Box Truck
  • The Chevrolet box trucks were typically built on a 1 ton express van chassis. The K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirrors, # KS62077-78G, that you referenced were designed to replace the OEM mirrors on the 2007 to 2009 GMC Sierra and Chevrolet Silverado pickup trucks, so they will likely not fit on your box truck. We do have a few universal towing mirrors that will work with your vehicle, but we do not have a custom towing mirror option for your 2003 Chevrolet box truck if it was built on

  • Boat Trailer Lights Not Working After Installing Trailer Wiring Harness on a 2003 Chevy Tracker
  • Tow Ready trailer wiring harness # 119175KIT is a harness you could use for a 2003 Chevy Tracker but the recommended harnesses are those I have linked for you. Some trailers do ground better when the coupler is on the ball but this is normally because there is a ground problem that needs to be fixed. Make sure the main trailer connector ground is attached to a clean and corrosion free bare metal surface. Since this is a boat trailer, if the frame is aluminum you may need to run jumper wires

  • Hardware Included with Hidden Hitch 90131 and Drilling Required to Install on a 2003 Chevy Malibu
  • Yes, the # 90131 receiver by Hidden Hitch does include the bolt leaders for fishing the hardware through the frame of your 2003 Chevrolet Malibu. You will need to drill one hole on the passenger side for the forward most attachment hole. The rest of the hitch attachment points use existing holes on the vehicle frame. Take a look at the instructions link I am including for reference. I am also including links to some additional information on hitches and towing in general for you. This hit

  • Right Brake Light Pin On New 7-Way Trailer Connector Not Working on 2003 Chevy Silverado
  • Since the original connector on your 2003 Chevy Silverado was so corroded it could have affected the wiring further back. Use your tester to test the wiring further forward on the truck to see if there is a point where the signal is good for both the turn signal and the brake light (they are on the same circuit). If there is then you will need to replace the wire for that circuit up to that point. Make sure the new harness is properly grounded as well. It is possible that there is a separa

  • Replacement 7-Way Trailer Connector for a 2003 Chevy Silverado
  • The 7-Way trailer connector on the back of your 2003 Chevy Silverado should have a round plug behind it that plugs into another harness that continues up to the front of the truck. What you can do is use # 20119 which comes with a new mounting bracket and has both a 7-Way blade style connector and a 4-Way flat. Or you could use # PK11916 that you referenced if you just want the 7-Way. Both options are assuming none of the wiring was damaged. You can use a circuit tester like # 3808 to test t

  • Tire/Wheel Combo to Replace 18.5 x 8.5-8 Tires on Snowmobile Trailer
  • The 18.5x8.5-8 is actually an old tire size that is not used much anymore. The closest metric size to your existing tire would be 215/60-8, which is what I would recommend. Your wheel most likely has a 5-on 4-1/4 inch bolt pattern (see link below), you will want to make sure that the bolt pattern of your existing wheels matches that of the replacement wheel. We offer a 215/60-8 load range C, 935 lb capacity tire on a white painted rim as part # AM3H200. When inflated to its 50 psi maximum (wh

  • Tekonsha Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller Power Light Stays On in a 2003 Chevy Silverrado
  • If you turn off the truck and there is no movement sensed by the brake controller, it will show a blank display which means it is in power saving mode. I recommend turning off the truck and walking away from it for at least 15 minutes then come back and peek in the window to determine if it has indeed turned itself off. If it has not then there is something drawing power making the brake controller think it needs to be on. A dirty or corroded trailer connector could cause this problem. If you

  • Weight Distribution for a 2003 Chevy TrailBlazer Towing a 2000 Jayco Kiwi 17A
  • I did some research and it looks like the Jayco Kiwi 17A can have a gross trailer weight up to 3,500 pounds. Typically, tongue weight is 10 to 15 percent of the gross trailer weight which means that the trailer could have a tongue weight up to 350 to 525 pounds. You also would add in the weight of any cargo carried behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. I have included a link to an FAQ on calculating the tongue weight. Once you know the tongue weight of the trailer when loaded and ready to

  • How To Tell If a 2003 Chevrolet Silverado Has Factory-Installed Fender Flares
  • A factory fender flare is trim placed around the outside of the wheel well to both protect the vehicle from grime and road debris and enhance the vehicles appearance. I have added a typical photo of what fender flares look like. The WeatherTech Mud Flaps # WT110005-120005 you referenced are compatible with your 2003 Chevrolet Silverado if they have the factory fender flares. I have provided links to the installation instructions for these mud flaps. If your truck does not have the fender f

  • Location to Mount 7-Way Connector In Truck Bed for 5th Wheel
  • Some model year trucks have a greater distance between the outer fender and the inside of the truck bed in the area directly behind the rear wheel well, which is typically why you see the trailer connector for the fifth wheel installed there. You could install the connector forward of the wheel well if you wish, but if you do, I would recommend using a 90-degree plug like the Bargman # 51-97-410. A 90-degree plug needs less space behind the bed wall. Keep in mind that you will need to pa

  • Trailer Hitch for 2003 Chevy Corvette Towing a Harley Davidson on a Trailer Weighing 900 lbs Total
  • The Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24658 has a gross trailer weight capacity of 2,000 pounds and tongue weight capacity of 200 pounds. The weight of the trailer plus the bike would be 900 pounds so you are well under the capacity of the hitch. However, you have to also consider the towing capacities of the vehicle. A Corvette is not typically a vehicle used for towing so capacity information or anything related to towing may not even be in the owners manual but you will want to check there first

  • 12 Volt Power Not Working on 7-Way Trailer Connector on a 2003 Chevy 3500 Express Van
  • On some GM vehicles, there are some additional connections that need to be made under the hood to provide the 12 volt power to the 7-Way. We usually see this on trucks but it is possible that the full-size vans and SUVs could have the same problem. I have included a link to an FAQ that will help. It is also possible that everything is hooked up under the hood but a fuse could just be missing or blown. You can consult the vehicle owners manual and/or the legend on the power distribution box li

  • Recommended Folding Cargo Carrier for 2003 Chevy Avalanche
  • The Curt Cargo Carrier you mentioned, part # C18132 will certainly fit, but you will need to take a measurement to determine if it can be folded up against the rear of the vehicle once installed. Measure from your hitch pin hole in the receiver rearward until the clear the furthest rearward portion of the back bumper. If this measurement is less than three inches (2-1/2 would be better), the cargo basket will be able to fold. If you find that the Curt Carrier you mentioned will not fold, w

  • Recommendations for Horsepower and Torque Increase On 2003 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 6.0
  • We do have a product that will help increase the torque and horsepower of your 2003 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 6.0, but the Edge Insight CTS # EP83830 is not equipped to do that as it is not a performance-enhancing device. It provides the driver with various vehicle data only. For a product that will provide the gains you are looking for, I recommend the Bully Dog Triple Dog GT Tuner # BY40410GMC. This product allows you to choose from 3 different settings that will allow your vehicle to increa

  • What Roof Rack for 2003 Chevy Tracker Can be Used for Hauling Ladders?
  • For your 2003 Chevy Tracker with factory-installed side rails, we have a number of different roof rack systems that will fit depending on whether you have the 2-door or 4-door model. You will first want to review your owners manual to confirm the weight limit for the Tracker roof to ensure you do not exceed it. The weight of your roof rack system plus the weight of your ladders must be within the vehicle roof weight limit. I have attached a link to our roof rack page for the 4-door 2003 Track

  • Data Parameters for Bully Dog WatchDog Monitor # BY40402 on 2003 Chevrolet Tahoe
  • After speaking to my contact at Bully Dog, I have found that the Bully Dog WatchDog Monitor # BY40402 you referenced for your 2003 Chevrolet Tahoe does display the transmission temperature as well as the temp of your engine coolant. It runs diagnostic checks and clears trouble codes and comes with a 1-year warranty. I have included a link to the instructions for the installation of this product.

  • Ability of Bully Dog Watch Dog Gauge Monitor to Correct Speedometer for Larger Tires
  • Because the Bully Dog Watch Dog is a monitor only, it is not capable of programming or changing anything on the vehicle, including the speedometer calibration. However, the Watch Dog does have a speedometer display function that can be calibrated for accuracy, see page # 23 of the owners manual, which I have linked you to. While driving, you would just ignore the speedometer reading on the vehicle and go by the corrected speedometer reading shown on the Watch Dog.

  • Trailer Brakes Lock Moving Forward But Release Going Backward on 2003 Chevrolet Avalanche
  • This is a very strange problem. If your 2003 Chevy Avalanche has a 7-Way trailer connector, make sure that it is pinned out correctly like in the picture I have provided by checking the pins with a circuit tester, # 3808, if needed. Then make sure that the trailer is wired to match the Avalanche 7-Way. Anything that does not match up could be causing the problem. If the trailer is using a 6-Way and you have an adpater that could be the problem. There are 2 ways to wire a 6-Way, the center pi
