Default wierd black thing

I have a z71 with onstar, xm, and such. I have this black thing on the console on the ceiling that I thought was a mic for the onstar, but I have what looks more like the onstar mic right over my head ( looks like a 1.5" speaker ). Temp sensor maybe, who knows for sure though.

I have the same two items. What are they for? Let me know when you do.

I think the black thing on the console is the mic, and the small grill on the ceiling above your head is the temp sensor. I may be wrong, but that is what I was told.

its an aspirator..it has a small fan that draws air in so the a/c head (auto a/c only) can measure the cab temp by your head accurately

Damn, what a little piece to screw the whole system when it dies.

Would smokers have a higher probability of issues with the auto a/c system? How many people here have had problems with their auto a/c and are smokers? How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

It's not crack, or as you call it "snow". It's Jack Daniels.

But, seriously, is there the potential for smokers to have more problems with their a/c systems?

I don't know, but would think so. Look at your windows, and the film that builds up on them. It gets everywhere, and becomes sticky.

Um....I don't smoke. I took 500 hrs of Minimum Standards. Smoke is BAD!

Unless it's a diesel.
