Common problems and easy repairs on a 1999 Blazer

The 1999 Chevrolet Blazer LS is a moderately easy vehicle to maintain, and shouldn’t be too hard for those experienced in vehicle maintenance. Changing the engine air filter with reliability is no problem, as you only have to disengage a few fasteners for access to the filter. The brake fluid reservoir is easily visible in the engine bay. This will allow you to check and replenish the fluid level on a regular basis. Checking the power steering fluid level is easy to do, as the dipstick is easily accessible in the engine bay.

Some things are problematic on the 1999 Chevrolet Blazer LS. You will have to lower the tire from under the vehicle for access to it. The lowering mechanism can grow rusted to the vehicle and be difficult to turn. Changing the headlights will require you to remove the entire housing first. Other models do not require this step. You will have to completely remove the headlight housing to access the front turn signal bulb.
