In this video I show the steps and procedures necessary to replace the heater hose connectors on a GM truck or SUV. GM use these connectors years 2000 through 2014. Chevy Silverado, Chevy Tahoe, GMC sierra, Chevrolet suburban, and GMC Yukons. After time, and enough heat Cycles, the only rings that are inside these connectors get brittle and eventually leak. Seems to be pretty common issue. This particular vehicle that is shown in the video has auxiliary rear heating and cooling. Which makes the job a little bit more difficult. I hope this video is help you out please and like and subscribe. If you have any questions or comments feel free to leave something in the construction. Thank you

Thank you sir! I was stuck after I reconnected in the wrong order, left the aluminum tube for last and no dice, then I couldn't get the rear firewall connector to release with any of the quick connect tools I had (the old part just disintegrated when I pulled on it). Your video was the trick, squeeze, push, pull. Thanks again!
Excellent video. Very clear, complete.
….. what voodoo ritual did you do to get those blasted quick connects to give up so easily?
What is that blue tool u first used to remove the clamp off the hose ?
Thank you…very helpful.
MAkes the quick connect look way too simple.
Thanks for the parts links, Amazon should have them here before the week's end. Preventive maintenance issue to do now before there is a problem. Nicely done!
My connecter nipple broke from the tip with the tip lodged in the hose, do you think it’s possible to just replace the nipple instead of the whole connecter?
Was it nessesary to drain the coolant?
Finally, after searching for a Video that shows what your Video is showing, I can finally see how to remove what I need to be removed. Good Video.
Great job! The video really helped me out. I'm headed outside to do the same thing now. BTW, I was pretty amazed you did this one handed. It looks like a tight space.
