2004 Chevrolet Questions and Answers

• Making the Underhood Connections on a 2004 Chevy Silverado to Install a Trailer Brake Controller
  
• After locating the Blue and Red Wires under the hood on your 2004 Chevy Silverado, place the Red Wire over the closest positive post. A Green 30 amp Fuse is needed in the location nearest the positive post to power the brake controller. The Blue wire is out put to the trailer brakes. Since it terminates under the hood, you will need to run wire from this blue wire all the way back to the 7-Way and attach it to the back of the 7-Way in the 7:00 position. You can use wire # 10-1-1 sold in 1 foo

• Tan Floor Mats for a 2004 Chevy Venture Extended Wheelbase and No Video System
  
• You are correct, your 2004 Chevy Venture would have to have the extended wheelbase and the video system for floor mats # CC76187082 to fit. Currently, there are no carpeted custom fit mats that fit the extended wheelbase without the video system. We do have semi-custom fit rubber mats you could use. For tan front mats you can use # WTW2TN. And for tan second row mats use # WTW25TN.

• Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2004 Chevy Cavalier
  
• Yes, as long as you have a Roadmaster XL Base Plate Kit # 3116-1 then you could flat tow your 2004 Chevy Cavalier with a RoadMaster Tracker Tow Bar # RM-020. To complete your towing setup you may also need the following products: Roadmaster Tow Bar Quick Disconnects # RM-201. These will allow you to quickly and easily attach and disconnect the tow bar from the base plate kit. RoadMaster 68 inch Single Hook, Coiled Safety Cables # RM-643. These are coiled so that you can just wrap them a

• Hitch Possibilities for a 2004 Chevy Aveo 5 Door Hatchback
  
• I have two options for a trailer hitch for your 2004 Chevy Aveo 5 door hatchback. Unfortunately, both of the options require two holes to be drilled in the bumper beam. I have attached a short installation video for an Aveo 5. It is a different year, but the installation is the same so you can see if this is something you would be able to accomplish. If you are wanting the hitch for light weight towing, buying Hidden Hitch part # 60849 is the right direction because it comes with the ball mo

• Is the Westin Perfect Match Rear Bumper Compatible with Factory Hitch of a 2004 Chevy Silverado LS
  
• I spoke to my contact at Westin and he informed me that the Westin Perfect Match Series Rear Step Bumper # 31006 that you referenced will not interfere with your factory installed trailer hitch. He said this bumper is identical to what the Chevy put on your vehicle so it will install exactly like the one you currently have. He also mentioned that might need to either remove or partially remove the factory hitch to install the # 31006 but ensured me that your hitch and this bumper are complete

• 5th Wheel Hitch and Rail Kit Recommendation for a 2004 Chevy Silverado 2500HD Short Bed
  
• As long as the bed in your truck is longer than 6 feet you could get away with using a slider hitch. If your bed is shorter than 6 feet you will need to go with a Sidewinder to give you the necessary clearance to make tight turns. I did some searching and found that the short bed 04 Silverado 2500HDs have 6-1/2 foot beds so you should be fine to use a slider. For a slider hitch with more than enough capacity for your trailer that ha a 15k dry weight I would recommend the Pro Series 5th Whe

• Troubleshooting a Hayes energize III controller in a 2004 Chevy Silverado Z71
  
• Most likely the problem is in the brake switch circuit. It may be that the connection is bad and its only making intermittent connection. I would start there and inspect the wiring first and fix as necessary. If it is not that check out the FAQ article I attached on troubleshooting brake controllers. For your year Silverado there will be a few connections under the hood that will need to be made before a brake controller will function. If you have not done that yet check out the FAQ articl

• Towing Mirror Recommendations for a 2004 Chevrolet Express 3500
  
• According to Longview, the # LVT-1700 mirrors will only fit 2006 to current Chevy Express Van 3500 models or 2003 to current 1500 and 2500 models. Since you have a 3500 they will not fit UNLESS your mirrors are the same as those on the 1500 and 2500 models. They would have to look like the ones in the video I have provided. If you do have different mirrors then you will need to use a universal fit mirror like # 11650 which mounts on the door or something like # CM11954 which is a suction cup

• Differences Between Bargman Surface Mount LED Light # 47-07-002 and Bargman Lens # 47-07-011
  
• The circles you see on the Bargman Surface Mount LED Tail Light # 47-07-002 are the LED lights that are part of the overall product that includes the lens. The Bargman Replacement Lens # 47-07-011 is only the lens, so it does not have the circles, or lights, that you are seeing on the original light.

• Can Firestone Air Bags be Installed on a 2004 Chevy Silverado 2500 HF with 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch
  
• The Firestone suspension system # F2250 mounts to the bottom of the truck frame as you can see in the instructions and video links I have provided. If the brackets from the 5th wheel installation kit do not have any parts that wrap around the bottom of the truck frame then you can install this air bag kit on your truck. If you determine that the area is obstructed by the brackets then I recommend the SuperSprings # SSA10MTKT which install over the rear leaf spring stacks. If the leaf spring

• Installing MaxxTow # MT70097 Magnetic Mount Tow Lights Permanently on Vehicle
  
• The MaxxTow Magnetic Tow Lights you mentioned # MT70097 could be modified by doing some cutting and splicing to work as you describe. You would attach the connector of the wiring harness at the front of the vehicle and run the wiring under the vehicle. Following the frame member or an existing wiring harness works best. Run the wires to the rear of the vehicle, being sure to avoid any suspension and steering components that might move or anything hot like the exhaust system. Under the vehicle

• Brackets for Installing 7-way Trailer Connector on 2004 Chevy Silverado
  
• To install a 7-way like part # PK11893 on that generation GM truck, we typically use a mounting bracket, part # 18136 that mounts to the crossbar of the hitch using a band clamp. Part # PK12711U is used to connect the 7-way to the bracket and the hardware kit # PK11926 is used to connect the 7-way to the brackets. Many times folks are tempted just to screw the bracket directly into the crossbar of the hitch. Adding holes to or modifying the hitch in any way can weaken it structurally and will vo

• Wiring In-Bed Trailer Wiring 12 Volt Power to a Switched Ignition Source on a 2004 Chevy Silverado
  
• The AUX can be a power source if connected to the battery. Normally on a 7-Way, the center pole is either AUX or reverse lights. I recommend using the center pole for the reverse lamps since you can wire the 12 volt hot lead to be on a switched ignition source if you wanted. Basically what you would do is find a 12 volt power wire that is only hot when the truck is on. That way it will turn off when you shut off the key. One way to do this would be to use a battery isolator, # TR118665. What

• Can Shank on BlueOx Weight Distribution System, part # BXW1501, Correct 8 Inch Height Difference
  
• The key factor to confirm compatibility of a weight distribution system, besides the gross trailer weight (GTW), is the loaded trailer tongue weight (TW). You need to confirm the tongue weight either by using a tongue weight scale such as the Sherline scale, part # 5780, or by one of the other methods outlined in the attached article. It is important that your trailer tongue weight be measured when it is carrying its typical load. Keep in mind that any cargo or equipment that is placed in th

• Which Grease Seal for 5th Wheel Camper with Lippert 5200 lb Axle
  
• Assuming that your hubs use the LM67048 outer and 25580 inner bearings, you will need the # BK3-300 which uses the 10-36 double lip grease seal with a 2.25 inch inside diameter. The BK3-310 uses a seal with a 2.125 inch inside diameter, which would not be compatible with your spindle. If you wish, you can confirm this by using a digital caliper to measure the diameter of the spindle surface where the spindle rides, as shown in the diagram.

• Fifth Wheel Installation Kit Recommendation for a 2004 Chevy Silverado with a 5-1/2 ft Bed
  
• The only Reese fifth wheel installation kit we offer that is confirmed to fit your 2004 Chevy with a 5-1/2 ft bed would be the Reese Kit # RP50064-58. Hopefully that is the kit you have now. If you just have the rails but still need the brackets you would want a Reese Quick-Install Custom Bracket Kit # RP50064. The front rail will be 47-1/2 inches back from the front rail of the truck bed. This is in the installation instructions I attached for this product also. When you using a fifth whe

• Will the Edge Programmer # EP85150 Work on a 2004 Chevy 2500 with a 6.0 Gas Motor
  
• Yes, the Edge Evolution CS Programmer # EP85150 will work on your 2004 Chevy Silverado with a 6.0 gas motor. It should also work well with the cold air intake. Edge claims a gain of 15 horse power and 15 ft on stock vehicles, so with a cold air intake you may see even more as these programmers work very well with cold air intakes. You will also be able to recalibrate your speedometer to compensate for the different size tires you have now.

• Replacement Bevel Gear Kit for a Fulton Magnum 2500 Trailer Jack
  
• I spoke with my contact at Reese and he stated that it is possible that the bevel gear kit # F0933306S00 will fit your jack. He said that if the outer tube is 2-1/4 inches wide then it is the correct kit. If the jack outer tube as a different measurement then I will need more specific information about the jack to determine the correct kit if available. I will need to know the type of jack, swivel, A-frame, etc, and if it is a top or side wind.

• Display of the Draw-Tite Activator II Brake Controller When Not Connected to a Trailer
  
• The Draw-Tite Activator II Brake Controller, # 5500, will not display numbers under any function when the trailer is not connected. You should only see a single decimal on the display. Check out the video that I made showing you how the brake controller should function without a trailer connected. If you do not have any signal on the display, then there could be an electrical issue that is preventing power from reaching the brake controller. If this is the case, I would recommend using a cir

I have included a link to a video that shows a typical isntallation and a link to the installation instructions for you. For a hitch given that the weight of the trailer is low you can go with a 15K hitch which is the smallest available, # PS30093.

• Wiring For 7-Way Connector on 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 2500
  
• On your 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 the factory wires should be light green, dark green, blue, yellow, red, brown, and black. The functions of those wires should be as follows: light green - reverse lights dark green - right turn/brake blue - electric trailer brakes yellow - left turn/brake red - 12 volt power brown - running lights black - ground I would also recommend to test the functions of your wires with a circuit tester like the Quickee Tester, part # 3808, to verify the fu

• How to Connect the 12 Volt Power Lead to a 7-Way Connector on a 2004 Chevrolet Silverado
  
• If your truck did not come with a factory installed 7-way trailer connector, then there is probably no 12 volt power lead connected to the 7-way. The wires that you mentioned for the 2008 Silverado will not be present on your 2004 Silverado. GM changed the tow package wiring after 2006 on their trucks and SUVs, so if your truck came with a tow package and a 7-way connector, the 12 volt power lead should already be hot. Since it is not hot, it will need to be hard wired. To complete this conn

• What is the Clearance from the Roof to Bottom of Bars on the Thule Crossroads Roof Rack
  
• On the Thule Crossroads roof rack, # TH45058, from the top of the side rails on the vehicle to the bottom of the crossbars once the system is installed measures approximately 1-1/2 inches. This is the measurement at the side rails. Most vehicle roofs are higher in the middle of the vehicle so there will be a little less clearance there. Measure from your roof to the top of the side rails and then up another 1-1/2 inches to get a good approximation of where the bottoms of the bars will be once

This is the circuit that will power the cargo lights on your trailer. Check out the FAQ article I attached that details what you will need to do. Step F deals specifically with the connections and fuses that are needed for the 12 volt circuit.

• Weight Distribution and Sway Control for a Rockwood Travel Trailer and 2004 Chevy Silverado
  
• A good rule to go by with weight distribution is that if the trailer weighs 50 percent or more of the vehicle weight then you should use weight distribution. A system will not only help the truck but the trailer as well. The dry weight of the trailer at 7,009 pounds would put the tongue weight in the 700 to 1,050 pound range (10 to 15 percent of the gross trailer weight). Given these numbers, and the fact that it will be a little heavier once loaded and ready to tow, I do recommend going wit

• Weight Distribution and Brake Controller for a 2004 Chevy Suburban and Fun Finder Travel Trailer
  
• You have come to the right place because some of the information you were given is not 100 percent accurate. First, tongue weight and gross trailer weight are very important factors when choosing weight distribution. But the most important number is the loaded tongue weight. You calculate this by taking the tongue weight of the trailer, when loaded and ready to tow, and then add to it the weight of anything loaded behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. I have included a link to an FAQ article

• Can I Use Firestone Wireless Air Command II, Part # F2500, To Fill Air Tank
  
• Although in principle your idea would seem an elegant solution, unfortunately the compressor in this system is not recommended for use with tanks. The standard-duty compressor in the system has a low duty cycle and is not designed to effectively fill an air tank. Duty cycle refers to the amount of time that the compressor can run, relative to its resting time. For example, if a compressor can run for three minutes but then requires a 20 minute cool down, then its duty cycle is approximately
