Dash Removal of a 1997 Chevy K1500. Full walk through guide of hardware and wiring removal. Job takes a few hours but isn't very difficult with basic hand tools and skills.

I struggled to find a video walking through how to remove all the wiring. I'm hoping this answers those questions

You make this job look much less daunting. It's the wiring removal that stresses me out. Can't find any videos of what to unplug. Glad you made this

I know this video is old so I have to take out the ac system to replace the evap ac cause mine is leaking should I follow exactly these steps or should I go a different route

Oh damn I cut the wiring out in the cab of a 96 cause i wanted to dash for my 98, is there anyway to remove the harness from the dash itself and swap it over?

I installed thousands of those dashboards when I worked at GM. A lot of the stuff that you removed is all assembled on it the IP line and the whole assembly is installed in one piece. The lower parts are installed after IP is inside cab. Of course the steering column and seats are in stalled afterwards.
👍on the video

Thank you for making this. I would have never even attempted this job without this video. Thanks for taking the time to make this. I watched it three times and almost didnt even try it. Also thanks for mentioning the differences vetween the 1997 headlight connection compared to the 1998 and 1999. You the Man!

Thank you for this video, I now know I would not remove my dash if 5, 000 dollars had fell down in behind it !

I just eliminated the whole plastic dash it's junk and any attempt at replacement is a huge waste of time as the next one will break as well
Make a cardboard pattern and water jet a beautiful aluminum T56 dash.

I was getting charge $1400.00 to swap the dashboard on my 1996 chevy. Not including what I paid for the one I got.
I decided to do it myself thanks to your video, nice job, there is no other like it out there. Thank you.

You did an amazing job on this video. I used it as a guide to pull the dash out of my 1995 Chevy Silverado Z71. You didn't miss a thing. I could not get my dash past the steering wheel. I actually broke it while trying. I went ahead and removed the steering column to put it back in. That worked really well, but it's a pain. I have not found a good video on removing and rebuilding the air box. That would be a good addition to this one.

Is all this necessary in order to get a dead mouse and mouse nest out of the heating vents? I bought a c3500 not knowing the moment I turned the floor and windshield defrost on that I’d get that lovely smell of dead mouse and nesting debris blowing out. It sucks.

09:50 me personally lol I would’ve lost my shit

[ChevelleBro]

Hey man thanks for the video it helped me a lot putting the dash in I'm having trouble putting it back in though I forgot where the one of the plugs go for the firewall and the harness if you can make a video of you putting it back in or something like that I would greatly appreciate it

[stevemyboii]

This has been the most useful vid I've seen and it applys for my 99 tahoe too

[sikkmcss]

What do you charge for a job like this?

[curly]

This video doesn't show ALL of what needs to be unplugged tho, I just took mine out today and I released after following all these steps once you loosen the top 3 screws there's still 4 wires on the driver side behind the dash and 3 or is it 4 wires on the passenger side that still need to be unplugged B4 you get to take it out without a problem. Also it works better if you remove the steering column all the way. Although this video was ALOT of help, so thank you for that.

Nice video but l am only needing to replace a broken sun damaged dash top and not the whole assembly. Will it not just unclipand lift off?

[kdono]

The parking brake handle comes off of the shaft and the mount for the shaft twists out. No need to disconnect cabling in the back.

[hotwheelsandnerf]

Thanks for the video man it really helps me a lot
If you see my text a quick question I have a chevy suburban 99 and chevy suburban gmc 99 are all the wires in the dash is the same
Thanks and God bless you
