Hellenthal
Problems for a 2001 Yukon XL, 2500, 4X4, SLT, Auto Ride, 8.1L
190,000 miles
1. Problems started when the OnStar Green Light turned RED and the air bag light on the dash stayed ON – I checked the fuses and could not find anything. It continues to go on and off most of the time.
Several days later, the ABS light on the dash came ON, followed by the BATTERY light in the information display, came ON, followed by the fuel gage GOING OUT (as if someone cut off the power to it, however the battery gage remained unchanged and was STILL WORKING CORRECTLY and the engine was still RUNNING. All of this still happens regardless of being in PARK, NUTERAL or MOVING.
I have wondered if a possible problem might be water getting into the under dash area, as seen when I remove the dash electrical panel cover on the driver’s side (a rusted area on the metal dash framing) and the carpet under the drivers area is getting wet. The vehicle has a Unity Spot light mounted above the driver’s side mirror (like on a fire vehicle). Problem didn’t start until we had heavy rain in PNW. I have tried everything to try and stop any water from getting inside the vehicle.
I love this vehicle and was hoping to keep it. By the way, I am disabled and can not work in it anymore, but I don't want to get tricked by a mechanic that does not know what the problem is, and tries to oversell me on something I don't need.
Thanks, Ron
