Remove glove box on cheverlot impala - 2008 Chevrolet Impala LTZ (2024)

SOURCE: vent door stuck and can't remove glove box

why can't you remove the glove box? You can get at the door from under the dash but it's a ***** to do. try lubing the vent cables unless it uses the vacuum motor, if it uses the vac. motor it will be hard to get to without the glove box being out.

Testimonial: "Thanks! I just don't know how to remove the glovebox."

Usually just remove glovebox...take care with plug and chip pins they easily bend!

SOURCE: 2003 impala leaks from under glove box

If you want to know the where the water is coming from, water is entering from the passenger side front cowl. ( the vent below the windshield that sucks the air in for your a/c and heat) there is a recall where chevy installs a plate under the cowl and diverts water out. There is your answer.

SOURCE: noise n the glovebox

You have a blend door actuator failure. This is the actuator for the fresh air intake (1 of 3 actuators). Replacement is quite a job. I would recommend just disconnecting the connector to the actuator. Hopefully it failed to the fresh air position to prevent fogging the windows during cold weather.

SOURCE: the 2003 impala will not

no start and door locks are consistent with security system activation. Is your security light blinking? Are you using the factory key with the resistor on the blade? Do you have another factory key you can try?
Not sure why the blower would be affected. Does the radio work? If not, check the radio fuse inside the car, as I think it runs the blower controller. Also check the HVAC fuse under the hood--#29--this one affects the security light.
I think the body control module is behind the glove box, but not sure why it would be clicking in these circ*mstances.
Let me know what you find out and if you have questions along the way.

Check the interior fuse box...probable location is behind the glovebox....you will need to remove the glovebox to gain access. Open the glove box, reach in and disconnect the glovebox tray and hinges. Once the glovebox is out, you should be able to get to the fuses.

There should be a tab on either side of the glove box door that is what actually stops the door from opening any further. These can be squeezed inward to allow the glove box door to open fully (make sure to empty it out first or you will have a mess) and allow you to reach the area behind it.

It is behind and underneath the glove box back by the firewall. No need to pull out the glovebox.You may need to pull the carpet back to get to one of the bolts.

To change the cabin air filters (there are two, that are in same location), you first have to remove the glovebox. The glovebox itself will not come off. You have to get a phillips head screwdriver to remove the 5 screws. With the glovebox closed, locate the two screws underneath and remove, one on each side. Next open the glovebox, remove the two screws at the top. The fifth screw is on the right behind the plastic molding. Pull back on the top of the lower piece of molding until the bracket pops out. The piece of plastic located just above that piece needs to be pulled out. No need to take it out all the way, just enough to get to the screw. Once removed, with the glovebox open take the fuse panel cover to the right off to allow you better grip. Pull both sides evenly until glove box pops out.
Get a flashlight and shine it on the right side behind where the glovebox was. There is a small plastic cover about 1 inch tall by 5 inches long. It is clipped in place. Push up on the plastic clip with your thumb while pulling out and down with your other finger/fingers. Behind this is one filter. Remove it best you can. Be careful, mine had dead bee's/wasps/dust/dirt/pinestraw/etc. After removing the first, you will notice a second one to the right of that. Slide that one to the left and remove the same way as the first. Look at those filters when you remove and take note the direction of AIR FLOW ^marking. Before replacing with the new ones, vacuum out inside where the filters go as best you can to remove all that crud that fell off of the old filters when removed.
Reinstallation is the reverse of how you removed. I hope this helps all my fellow Pathfinders out there.
