I have a 2015 Chevy Silverado LTZ and recently the park assist stopped working. When I put it in reverse the back up camera comes on normally but the lines are no longer showing and warning when you get close to an object dont work. Going forward the warnings it used to send when you get close to an object also does not work anymore.

The switch on the dash to turn it on and off blinks rapidly when you try to turn it on and a error message shows up on the display in the dash saying it is not activated.

 

Naturally this happens right out of warranty... Any one had this happen to them or know what the issue may be?

 

It is very cold here with temps being in the negative numbers, i thought it may be ice or snow on the sensors but even with them clean this still happens.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Is there a feature in the "settings" menu that has this turned off by chance? I can't recall but I thought there was a menu under settings to turn this on and off. Hopefully it's something as simple as that.

Snow, road salt and to much dirt cause them to stop working. This happens to me all of the time.

 

Just wash it.

It amazes me how GM Customer Care responds to my post and makes it sound as if they are going to assist me with this issue. The requested a lot of information from me so they can better assist me yet its been over a week since i sent them the info and i haven't heard from them. So i asked them what the status is on this and several days later I was informed that since i live in Canada that they can not help me and will send my issue to their Canadian Customer Service Center..... It strikes me as odd that they did not know I was from Canada since my signature clearly says i am from Canada... So here i am 12 days after my posting and still no help from GM on this issue.

 

I appreciate the support from the members here, I wish GM who I spent $60,000 Canadian with to buy this truck was as proactive!

I also concerns me that i may need to unplug the connectors, clean them and dry them with a blow drier to make the system work again, GM didn't design this very well since all sensors are mounted to the exterior of the truck, front and rear bumpers..... I would think that weather proof connections would be exactly that... Weatherproof.

 

Well I am taking my truck in for service this weekend and will discuss this problem with my dealer. I doubt i ever hear from GM Customer Service in Canada and if i do i doubt i will get any assistance so i will continue dealing with this on my own..

 

Sorry for the rant

I am experiencing the exact same problem as J Steiert from Canada.  Both front and rear sensors stopped working on my 2015 GMC Sierra SLT.  Not cheap trucks and not too old to be having this problem. Chevrolet/GMC customers deserve better assistance.

Hello, anyone actually fix this.  I have the same issue.  being as i had two sensors giving me a false object reading right before it went down i thought it might be one of those two sensors.  so i changed them.  nothiing resolved.  

 

Also i live in Canada and cleaning them is not a new thing for me.  also the system is set to on in the settings.

 

I watched one video where they could here a noise coming from the good ones and not from the bad ones.  Well i have no noise for any of them.  Wondering if ther is maybe a module that could be gone or if i need to clear the codes after i changed the sensors?

 

Thanks,

I have the same issue. I can hear the sensors working in the rear bumper when I put my ear to them. I can not hear any of the front ones at all, no clicking. The harness is hooked up, I will be removing the bumper and checking them out soon.

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Texas Gasser · Posted

      My truck is a 2024 2500 LT crew cab with the 6.6 gas engine and 10 speed trans.  It has a payload of 3578 lbs.  We pull a 22' Grand Design 17MKE that has dry weight of 5006 lbs. and a gross weight of 6395 lbs.  The trailer weighs about 5800 lbs. when loaded up with all the gear.  I don't fill the water tank for travel as most of our trips are to state parks that are within a day's drive.  Depending on the wind I get anywhere from 7.5 to 9 mpg.  I do use a weight distribution hitch (WDH) and have no problems with sway or being pulled/pushed side to side by 18-wheelers passing by me.  The trailer is about the same length of the truck so that helps a lot.  I say that because we traded in our 33' Grand Design 2670 MK (7800 lbs. loaded with gear) and using the same WDH, it would get pulled side to side by big trucks passing by me. It was not bad, but you needed to stay alert and know when a big truck was pulling up beside you.  I got about 7 to 8 mpg pulling that trailer.  I normally drive about 65 to 67 mph when pulling.  Overall, I love the payload capability of the truck as I doubt I will ever get close to its limit and I love the stability it offers over a half ton truck while pulling a trailer.  I have just over 30000 miles on the truck and have not had any issues.  We live in Texas where it is relatively flat, just windy.

      I will say though that the 5.00 a gallon for only one fuel stop while on the Number 1, that privilege of driving from the point of Paso Robles ( where I fueled up before crossing to the coast ) and all the way up ... across the Golden Gate where I stopped and walked on the bridge ( and someone jumped off the bridge opposite the side I was on ... never saw it happen but the tow truck/paramedic told me ) and continued on north back onto No 1 and all the way up to where it connects to 101 and also explored some of the Red Woods although had been through some of that before. The fantastic view of that scenic ocean route was most certainly worth the extra dollars I spent on fuel. Just prior to that I had driven through Death Valley and that was some experience in the middle of July, then spent a couple of days in Yosemite and hiked to the top of Half Dome. The summer of 2007 was very memorable for what I saw and experienced in California.

      Really depends on what extent the towing is.  Are you going across the country on highways or to fairly local campgrounds?  If you're just local towing then I wouldn't derate your truck much, just make sure the weight of your trailer and equipment stays below your limit.  Which for my truck is 14500lbs bumper pull.  Yeah it will work hard when you're over 5 figures in weight but who cares if it is just say 50 miles.    In my opinion the main thing with towing campers is wind resistance.  My 3200lb single axle camper tows fairly hard for what it is due to the wind.  But then if I use my truck to tow a family members 8000lb camper it doesn't really feel any different as wind resistance is similar. I've also towed a 5000lb airstream and it barely felt like anything was there.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      I think the excitement has run its course. Or, probably need a break from the truck for a few days.   Win some, lose some, again. There was still a coolant weep from the front of the engine. This time it was one of those worm-drive hose clamps on the upper hose connecting to the water neck. There's a reason the factory doesn't use those type of clamps; they suck. The hose is all distorted and flared at the end from someone over-tightening it. The water neck just needed to be cleaned, hose seated, and have a *good* hose clamp put on, if the hose wasn't so mangled.   Thought I'd kill two birds with one stone and try to diagnose the EGR issue. It's likely a failed EGR but before I spent $85 on the part I wanted to make sure ports weren't clogged or the pintle wasn't stuck. It was kind of a bugger to remove with the upper intake installed. Re-install (because I wanted to drive it) proved more difficult.   Per the stack of service paperwork, the EGR has already been replaced 4 times since 1996.   It would reason, then, that the EGR flange on the lower intake manifold has had its share of techs trying to work quickly and maybe one of them seated a bolt slightly cross-threaded at one time. The bolt didn't come out without significant effort and tried as I did, it wouldn't go in without significant effort. And then, the mounting ear on the right side of the EGR (lower intake casting) cracked, and crumbled off. $%&@!!!   I hate everything. Or, at least, I did in that moment. I was pretty calm, considering. This is what older, junky vehicles do. They nickel and dime their owners, piss them off, and things break that shouldn't break because of shoddy design/workmanship, poorly done repairs.   If I want to make it right, I'll need to replace the lower intake manifold and basically re-do everything I spent days doing. At least it should go quicker this time, right?! Looks like a lower intake (used/junk, of course) will run me about $150.   Once I get the new EGR, I'll see if I can bolt it up snug enough to verify proper operation, and if it solves the persistent CEL that sets on decel for EGR flow, I'll know I'm back on the right track. And then I can decide how to proceed.   Also, an idler pulley has given up. It began squeaking in pain on startup. It's clear this truck hasn't been thoroughly driven in a long, long time as things are just letting go and shaking out. I may have given it the beans once or twice to make sure my intake gaskets were doing their job. Flog an old vehicle, expect what it gives in return.
