Dic Dont Work After Battery Change

[BL650]

I have a 05 Z71 crew cab SLT and battery went dead, had new one installed but DIC only gives you english, french or standard or metric options. I have no intior lights, no bright lights, no remote key access, it dont give me any options to set in the DIC. Looked at the fuses all are good. Any help would be great Thanks

disconnect the negative side of the battery. Wait 10 minutes and reconnect. (connecting the negative side first, and then the positive when installing the new battery has been known to cause restart issues with the computers- i've seen it screw with gauges and such).

 

If that doesn't work. double & triple check your fuses. Maybe even replace the fuses that have to do with the systems that aren't working just for good measure even if they "look" good.

 

I usually use a test light or DVOM to test the fuses- its much easier and more accurate than pulling each one out individually for a visual inspection.

 

Edit: don't forget the fuses in the engine bay!
