I have been trying to wire up a new stereo for my 2005 express, and I have already cut the factory harness (oops). The problem I have is that I cannot find out where the accessory wire is, and consequently the new unit will not shut off with the car because it's only wired to the 12v constant. I gave tried to use a multimeter to find the accesory wire by having the key in the on position and seeing which wire reads 12v, but the only wire I get a reading for is the 12v constant wire. Anybody know which wire is the accessory wire? Or whether there even is one?

Hey y’all, new to the forum and to chevys here (used to drive an 84 Jeep CJ) and bought my K5 a few days ago off the bat it came with a few problems the guy who sold it told us about, he said that the brake light bulbs would pop while driving, but we took it home (had someone drive behind us) and confirmed that we don’t have brake lights (the bulbs are not blown) or turn signals (front or back) and when we got home I confirmed that the backup lights and hazards (all four corners) do not come on either. And this didn’t happen when we first got it, but the morning after I found the interior light on and had to take the bulb out (wouldn’t turn off) in the fear of running out the battery however, the taillights and the dailys (I’ve heard those little yellow lights on the sides called that before but I don’t know if that’s the proper term) do come on when the headlights are turned on. ive checked the fuses for the brakelights and turn signals and nothing seems to be wrong with them, so I’m assuming there must be something wrong in the steering column, but I’m at a loss of how to go about fixing the problem, and I’d love to get some advice before i go about taking the thing apart or having a shop look at it. anything is greatly appreciated, thanks!

I have a 2010 Tahoe LS 5.3, 6 speed automatic 4x4. I drove the vehicle 400 miles one day and shut it off and the next day the battery was dead I needed to replace it so I put in a new one. When I was installing the battery I noticed it seemed to have a current draw, the cable sparked when I connected it. I tried to start it and it wouldn't start. I ran the codes and it came up with 3 codes, p1682, U0102, U0109. I took it to a local shop and they replaced the ignition and lock cylinder and key and cleaned and replaced ground cables. They told me that they couldn't figure it out. So I hauled it to the nearest dealership. The dealership replaced ECM and the BCM and programed it to the vehicle. After they did that, there were no trouble codes and the vehicle will start and run but, none of the gauges work and various check engine, abs, air bag and tps lights are on. Door locks and windows don't work from the remote or with the switch. The dealership then told me that they couldn't do anything more with it. I told them just to take off all the new parts and I would take it elsewhere. They said they couldn't do that, because the ECM and BCM were programed to the VIN number of the vehicle. I paid the bill and hauled it home. I don't know what else to do with it. It runs good but I am apprehensive about driving it with no gauges. Anyone have any ideas? Any help would be great.
