Update for everyone. I added a new topic, but I'll put it here too.

 

I have had to bring my denali in 4 times in the last 6 months for various things. Each time, I have them log my complaint about the cluster resetting issue.

 

This time, there was a software update to fix bugs. No specific mention of the resetting, but it did include the denali.

 

Before the software update, I was losing my settings at least every 4 days. It has now been 13 days since the update and i have not had a single reset.

It is still too early to confirm that the problem is gone, but it is promising. I'll post updates....

 

Call your dealers and give it a whirl! Good luck. :fingersx:

AWESOME NEWS!!! Please post back in a couple of weeks and let us know if it has happened again. I'm due for an oil change in about 1-2k miles and am waiting to let the recalls build up - LOL!. I was hoping they'd come up with a fix soon. This still happens several times a week for me too.

 

Thanks.

Another week down and still no reset!!

 

I would have had a dozen by now, so I am hopeful the problem has been fixed.

Do you happen to know what TSB or recall they performed that fixed your cluster? Was there a number or something? I want to be able to give them specifics of the fix if they can't find anything.

 

Thanks.

Thanks.

I just spoke to the service department to get the actual code for you.

 

Instrument Cluster Reprogram, OP code # 1031660

 

Hope that helps!!

 

Still going strong with no resets.

Thanks for getting me the number. I showed this post to my tech when I went in for service two weeks ago and he said that number meant nothing from what he could tell. Since I've been in 3-4 times for the same issue, he finally called a GM engineer to ask about the problem. The GM engineer said he never heard of the issue. UGH. He advised the tech to load a new, unreleased HMI update for our trucks to see if there was any improvement. It's been almost two weeks and I think the problem has gotten worse for me. I was resetting about once a week, and now it's happening 2-3 times a week.

 

I'm also experiencing puddles of water on my floorboard after yesterday's downpour, so I'm bringing it in again this Friday. I'm going to push for another call to the engineer and for something to be done. They think it's HMI module related and not cluster related, so I'm going to ask for a new HMI module.

 

When was your truck built? I find it interesting that you got a cluster reprogram and I got an HMI update.

I find it so random. I can go for weeks without it happening and then it'll happen a couple of times in one week.

Sorry for the delay. My build was the week of 11/11/13. I don't have the exact date.

 

The settings have still not completely reset. It is still on the "Technology" setting. But, at some point in the last month, it has reset the "best 25 miles". I don't know when, because I don't leave it on that screen. That is the only thing that has reset as far as I can tell. At least it isn't going back to the standard layout though.

 

Sorry to hear about your truck. I have no idea why your dealer can't find the update that I was given. That was the only reference that I could get from them with regard to the update.

 

Other than some rattles, mine has not had any other significant problems. Hopefully it stays that way....

After several calls to GMC Customer Service, they finally found a PI that indirectly addresses my issue. It's PI-1318A and is applicable to Denali and Corvette Instrument Clusters. I had mine reprogrammed almost two weeks ago and haven't had a reset since. I was having multiple a week, so it's looking promising so far.

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By 2017Z · Posted

      Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Melling I believe is/was the OEM on the lifters who explored this problem some years ago. The white paper they generated on the topic indicated two items of note when I read it. 1.) They only fail on the switch. Prevent the switch, prevent the failure. 2.) The majority fail due to deposits messing up the timing of that switch. Anyway that's what I got from it.    Mine have always been active, 195K+ now, and my oil maintenance is surgically clean.    Of course this assumes good parts. That is no heat treat issue or machining flaws. I get comfortable that these issues are in the rearview mirror by about 30K. IMHO naturally.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes, the key seems to be with the half tons that if it has the Z71, then it definitely has the two speed. What got me was that the two speed AND the lower geared towing package option could not be chosen together the last few years unless it was mated up to the 6.2. Want the 3.0 duramax and 3.73 tow gears ... nope, can't get the two speed transfer case ( neighbor son realized that after he had bought his used 3.0 half ton .. where the frick is the low range ? ! ).    I am still unsure which truck series, the half ton or the HD truck that the original poster is referring to for sure other than yes his question is in the HD section of this forum but that doesn't guarantee the question got asked in the right section.
