Why does my Chevy Trailblazer not transfer power?
If your Trailblazer is too low on transmission fluid, it’ll will no longer be able to transfer power to the rear wheels. The power goes to the torque converter, and that’s the end of the line. You should check the transmission fluid immediately.
Are there any reverse gears in my Trailblazer?
No reverse or any drive gears Hi Im new here but hoping to get some useful information that will shine light on this situation without swapping or rebuilding the transmission. My wife has a 2004 trailblazer , about 6 months ago I replaced tran fluids and filter.
What causes transmission to go out while driving?
My wife has a 2004 trailblazer , about 6 months ago I replaced tran fluids and filter. At that time I noticed the fluid was very dark and appeared to be watered down or thinned and had a seperation in it that in my mind I think is moisture infiltrating into the transmission somehow.

Why is the spark chain on my trailblazer not working?
The timing chain (or belt) is responsible for keeping the upper valve train synced with the crankshaft. This is vital for spark timing. If the timing is off a little and the engine still runs, the timing belt may have skipped. If it has jumped too much the Trailblazer may not even fire.
Why is the clutch not working on my Trailblazer?
Being that it is intermittent, I would suspect the HVAC control module not supplying power to the clutch coil of the compressor while the relay is activated. That is the way it looks to me, maybe someone else may read it differently. Sounds like you did almost everything except the most obvious and common cause of this. Check the clutch gap.
Can a Chevy Trailblazer lose power on OnStar?
vbell, my information came from a news report that stated that OnStar can now reduce engine power to newer OnStar equipped cars. They do not “deactivate” a car, they reduce power to a safe level so the driver cannot speed away. I would pose the question directly to OnStar, not Chevy or GM.
Can a Chevy Trailblazer be deactivated while in motion?
As far as Chevy is concerned they say that OnStar is NOT able to deactivate a vehicle while it is in motion. (even if told to do so by police). Its is considered unsafe.

What kind of power does a Chevy Trailblazer have?
Thanx so much in advance for any ideas and advice. I own a 2007 Trailblazer…I6 4.2L, much like yours. I have had a similar problem happen twice in my brand new truck. The first time I was driving about 20mph- the truck lost power and dropped to almost 5-10 mph. With in seconds..it had kicked back in and it was fine.
Why does my Chevy Trailblazer make a loud noise?
This loud noise can be confused with high rpm’s, but the engine is not racing fast. It usually takes about a minute or two for the fan to shut off and then everything is normal. One or two have posted that when the fan is on, the power is reduced but this may be a different problem.

Check the transmission cross member mount (rubber dampers) for excessive wear or splits. A noticeable vibration in the chassis frame during the heavy clunk will point more toward a defective transmission mount rather than a torque converter problem.
Why does my Chevy Trailblazer not speed up?
Chevy Trailblazer Won’t Accelerate: RPMS Go Up If your Trailblazer won’t accelerate, but the RPM’s go up it’s usually not going to be an engine related issue. Somehow, the power that your engine is creating is not making it to the rear wheels. This is typically a transmission related issue.

When did the transmission go out on my Trailblazer?
Reopened for updates. The transmission went out on my 02 Trailblazer last night for the second time. The initial failure occurred 1 year ago almost to the day, the vehicle was 18 months old and had 32,000 miles. In drive it suddenly started slipping and making a loud whine. It would not shift, but sometimes would “catch” enough to move forward.
