I have a 2002 1500 series Chevy Silverado with a V8. My AC works great until I reduce speed on the highway and then it cuts out. After parking for a while it works fine again. Any ideas?

Check the pressure in the Freon lines. There are low and high limit switches that can interrupt the system and it appears to be related to pressure. The pump may not be working at optimum performance. It will take a manifold pressure gauge set to check this.

SOURCE: my 1995 chevy 6.5 L diesel dies at highway speeds. Why?

I could bet 99.9% with out seeing the truck my self that your probelem is the PMD I have two of these trucks and know many people that also have them and the vast majority of problems with the Chevy 6.5L diesels are from the PMD. A must when replacing the PMD is moving it from its place on the injection pump on the top of the engine to a place that dosent get so hot. A good place is the front bumper or skidplace, search for Heath Diesel they have a kit to move it. Its worth every penny.

you need a resister found under your air duct by the passenger floor under dash board auto zone sells these for about 25.00 you may as well buy cabin air filters while your at it . 1 of the screws will be a pain to install back into the duct work I left mine out didn,t make a difference . you might have to order it as they are a comman item oh you will need a vacuum to clean up mess from cabin air filters .this is not a hard job .

Will not go into park or 1st gear. RDN32 work fine. Key won't come out. Brake lights work.

You need to verify the park lock is working, the solenoid is up on the steering column.

Cruise control on 1996 Chevy Silverado won't hold speed

Possibly a broken wire in the steering column. Wires goint through the steering column for the cruise are so fragile when the tilt is used alot causing the wires to brake. Part is $70.00 through advance auto. Cheapest I've found if you order online.

I have a 1997 chevy 3500 dually it has a454 it run good until u go to give it gas to take off then it cuts out bad it has 13500 on it could it be my egr

no the egr is only used at high speeds and all it does is reciurculate the exaust in to the engine at highway speeds to reduce emmissions. i would check the fuel pressure,the injector pulse,timing,distributor or ignition coil. i have also seen the catalitic conveters clogg and stall or make the engine stumble. Hope that helps some

ABS light came on while running down the highway.

I am gonna suggest that rent a scanner to have an idea what is causing it before do any further.. but if your at the house drinking beer with your friends and wanna just check what maybe causing it well lets start at the speed sensor all your wheel has its sensor for your ABS if one of them is out of spec it can turn off your ABS and traction control i may suggest that record all the reading use Ohm check the reading and compare to each other i cant give you numbers but if one of them is far from each other you just eliminate the problem...

Fuel Cutoff Mode
The PCM cuts OFF fuel from the fuel injectors when the following conditions are met in order to protect the powertrain from damage and improve driveability:
  • The ignition is OFF. This prevents engine run-on.
  • The ignition is ON but there is no ignition reference signal. This prevents flooding or backfiring.
  • The engine speed is too high, above red line.
  • The vehicle speed is too high, above rated tire speed.
  • During an extended, high speed, closed throttle coast down-This reduces emissions and increases engine braking.
  • During extended deceleration, in order to prevent damage to the catalytic converters
