MyLink frozen screen?

Our 2016 Suburban did the same thing, froze up while we drove around town. Got out to shop, got back in and it did the same as the screen above about update.  Then started working again.  

 

Now we are just having an issue with Apple Carplay not working like it is supposed to and the radio goes to the home screen every time we get in and start it.

Just an update. I tried unhooking the battery again for 15 minutes. I also checked all 3 fuse panels and found none burned. I put everything back together and have the same freaking thing going on. This truck is NOT under warranty so  am hesitant to do anything at a dealer. Will keep you updated.

Anyone have any luck with this issue yet? Some pretty serious medical issues have prevented me from getting mine in to the dealer yet.

I found a new HMI unit on EBAY from someone who apparently does upgrades to Nav. 

It was only $69 and they are programming it as well. I will update once I install it.

SOLVED for CHEAP!!
Got the part today and installed it. Everything works great! It is from a 2015 truck so the graphics are even better than my original 2014 radio.

Go to EBAY and find seller dokus223  

i BOUGHT IT FROM HIM AND HE PROGRAMMED IT FOR MY VIN AND SHIPPED IT for $84 total. Don't know if he has any at the moment, but grab it if he does. He upgrades new trucks from non nav to nav, so I just ordered the non nav. Don't know if he sells the nav version or how much.

I too am having issues with the mylink infotainment system. Mine does the no volume or turn signal noise and no xm stations at all. no indication that xm/sirius was ever in the radio at all. Have had this issue last year 4 times. This issue occurred when temperatures are below 30 degrees. Possible issue is when it gets really cold some resistance in the wires play havoc the the audio system. still having issues with and has happened 4 times in the last 2 days. Twice a day this happens. Great truck for a year but this does not happen during the warm months just the cold months. I do not want to deal with this the next six months in the cold Minnesota winter.   Is there a fix besides pulling the radio fuse? Done that as well and it does fix it but it still happens. Replaced the fuse and it still happens. Now no xm radio just fm and am. Not happy with this. I will have to get out my sirius radio portable and make it work till this gets resolved. Anybody have suggestions besides going to the dealer which i will due to a steering recall.

My 2019 Sierra Denali screen freezes up and radio etc doesn’t work. Any ideas?

I had issue twice.   Started at turning on truck.    WOuld not play at all and although I could go through some menus, nothing would play.    The second time, I shut off car and was waiting for daughter and 4 minutes later the radio started, and would not shut off... Weird?   Yes...      Both times got fixed by pulling battery negative terminal for 10 Minutes (less than that did not reset).    Hope this does not keep happening (BTW. 2016 Chevy Silverado at 79,000k)

    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
