GMC S15 Jimmy Parts

The early 1980s saw General Motors release the GMC S15 Jimmy SUV to meet consumer demand for smaller and more fuel-efficient vehicles. The S15 Jimmy used the same platform as the GMC S15 pickup when it debuted as a two-door SUV. The introduction of a four-door model occurred during the second generation release period. At launch the GMC S15 Jimmy entered the market with a GM OHV four-cylinder engine which generated 83 hp and afterward customers could select a 110 hp 2.8L V6 unit and finally a 1.9-liter I4 gasoline engine was added to satisfy California's emissions requirements. In 1988 the GMC S15 Jimmy received a V6 engine upgrade and by 1989 the vehicle now had 160 hp when combined with the 4.3L motor as the four-cylinder option was no longer available. Both automatic and manual gearbox options provided the vehicle with superior driving dynamics because they enhanced its off-road capabilities. The GMC S15 Jimmy had a compact design with dimensions 37 cm shorter and 38 cm narrower compared to the full-size K5 Blazer thus improving its handling. This model differed from other large GMC models because it lacked a removable roof yet maintained longevity through its genuine parts usage. OEM parts created for the GMC S15 Jimmy exist with strict compliance to GMC specifications which guarantee both an excellent performance level and durability.

Confirm with voltage drop tests at the switch connector and related grounds. Replace the ignition switch, secure connectors, and retest every circuit.
