ignition GMC SIERRA DENALI 2003 Workshop Manual

Follow these instructions to lower the spare tire:
1. If your vehicle is equipped with a hoist lock, open
the spare tire lock cover on the bumper and use
the ignition key to remove the lock.
2. Assemble the wheel wrench and the two jack
handle extensions as shown. Insert the hoist
end (open end) of the extension through the hole in
the rear bumper. Be sure the hoist end of the
extension connects into the hoist shaft.
3. Turn the wheel wrench counterclockwise to lower
the spare tire to the ground. Continue to turn the
wheel wrench until the spare tire can be pulled out
from under the vehicle. The wheel wrench has a
hook that allows you to pull the hoist cable towards
you, to assist in reaching the spare tire.
If the spare tire does not lower to the ground, the
secondary latch is engaged causing the tire
not to lower. See Secondary Latch System next.
4. When the tire has been lowered, tilt the retainer at
the end of the cable
so it can be pulled up through
the wheel opening.
5. Put the spare tire near the flat tire. The
tools you’ll be using include the bottle jack
(A), the
wheel blocks
(B), the jack handle (C), the jack handle
extensions
(D), and the wheel wrench (E).
If the flat tire is on a rear tire of the vehicle, you’ll need
to use both jack handle extensions.

Instrument Panel Fuse Block
The fuse block access
door is on the driver's side
edge of the instrument
panel. Pull
off the cover to
access the fuse block.
You can remove fuses with a fuse extractor which
is
mounted to the fuse block access door. To remove
fuses,
if you don't have a fuse extractor, hold the end of
the fuse between your thumb and index finger and
pull straight out.
You may have spare fuses located behind the fuse
block access door. These can be used to replace
a bad
fuse. However, make sure it is of the correct amperage.
