Had one right after they did the transfer case recall. It came on after getting above 35 mph and would not reset. They reflashed the recall software and haven't seen it since. Maybe the recall will

Dropped truck off at the dealer again today for the same problem. The tech called me and said they were gonna keep my truck a few days and try and track the codes that have been stored. He did say t

Hey guys... ask your tech how many of this recall the dealership has completed. The reason I say this is that the technician that did mine revealed that he missed one of the final steps and it caused

Yes it was a pushed out connector on the harness.

Ugghh, figures. They've already replaced the harness on mine and its still doing it. 

 

I will say, mine doesn't happen every keystroke, it waits about every 2 to 3 weeks before it decides to come on once I dismiss it

 

Thanks

I will have to check that out. I never use that 110 volt port so it may or may not be working I wouldn't know

Got this message a few times this morning on my 2016 with 25k miles.

Didn’t seem to have any issues attempting to change between 2 and 4WD....

I have a 2015 GMC Sierra 4wd with 244,000 miles. Over the years I’ve had the service 4wd message. I’d dismiss it and all is fine. Last night it came back I dismissed it and tried selecting 2wd or 4wd and it won’t do anything. I suspect a low battery because everything was acting different with the transmission. Wouldn’t go in gear forward or reverse, after several attempts it went in drive. After charging overnight everything seemed fine except transfer case wouldn’t move out of Auto position. Anyone else notice these batteries only last about 3 years?

Before I replaced my battery, when it would run out of "juice" and I did a scan, all kinds of errors ere present.
The MyChevy app would tell me every system needed attention.
I found I had a battery drain with my Dash Cam, once I got it sorted, no issues, the old battery might have been good all along.
Most batteries should easily last 5 years or better if you don't have a parasitic power drain somewhere.

Any idea where the X-1 TCCM connector is located. I can read the Service Bulletin, but there's no pics.

      Tire psi

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I will admit I haven't experimented much with pressure drops beyond the numbers I put in and part of that is that the numbers I used are fairly low and then found out it would trigger regardless at that 35 psi. Having said that I had tried before had changed the placard pressures and being that I have a 1 ton set to 80 on the placard for the rear I believe it triggered close to 60, the front I don't recall now for sure but thought maybe it could get close to 45 from that factory 60 placard pressure. So I never did figure out if it was a number of psi from placard pressure to the alarm or a percentage of the total placard number as some figured it was like a 25% drop from placard pressure would trigger it. So as to try and answer your question, I believe I set the placard pressure on the front to 47 or so and while I run the front tires at 40, they have dipped below that some if its colder and I haven't put "winter air" in yet and never once have had the front alarm go off. I would say that the answer your looking for is no, that if you set your placard pressure to 45, you have a certain amount of room to drop below that pressure before the alarm will go off.    The pressures you decide to run in your truck, that ends up being what makes sense to you based on what your carrying in your truck or if towing, then have to bump them back up to something that will carry the load in the rear and the fronts typically left at the same pressure. It all comes down to that chart I put the link to and using an accurate roadside scale to be your guide, both unloaded and then loaded to know your minimum safe pressures.    I just wish GM would allow a person to change the readings for the tire pressures to the English system of pounds as I have to look at that goofy metric reading that will never ever jive in my head and will go over and change it just to figure out what they are if need be and then change it back.

      No Software Updates - Old Build

      By TrueBlue · Posted

      That part I understand, that the dealer can do it. But I'm not understanding why updates that were available to the truck since it left the factory, or the dealership originally, would not still be available to it without dealer intervention.   I'm thinking along the lines of recalls. They stay available until they are completed, regardless of whether they are in warranty or not, or in the hands of the original owner or not. Why not updates as well, especially since some of those can be safety related also?

      Tire psi

      That's good to know, but I don't think I'll even be running them under 45 in the rear  unless it's on the sand or something but will only be for a short distance anyways!    I didn't read all the instructions in the booklet yet, but do you know let's say I set the rear psi on the placard to 45, will the warning light come on soon as it drops under 45 or is there a percentage it has to drop from the set value before the warning light is triggered?

      Would this CV Shaft be bad?

      By newdude · Posted

      That's bad.  Like, its probably destroying the stub axle the CV slides into.   Do you have a proper lift installed with differential lowering brackets?  Did you install AT4/Trail Boss factory CV axles?

      Hot? New Jersey? Today? I was working on my old 2000 Silverado 1500 today. Believe me, it was boiling hot today. As it has been.
