My park assist will not activate.  The message on the DIC just says "park assist off" every time that I toggle the switch (as well as when I start the truck). Anyone else have this issue?

Sounds like the system is being turned off while being told to be on creating the message. Did you

check the Park Assist setting in the menu to ensure it was not Off? You should not get the message with this option set.

Yes, I went into "settings" and made sure that park assist was enabled.  It was.  There is an issue with my system, that I am sure.  I am trying to figure out what that issue is.

Mine truck also does this. It started after an update. Before the update it would go off like crazy after the wash for 30 min or so. Alerting all directions back and forth. My wifes new Terrain also shuts off. Not sure how to tell when it is working again.

I’m having the same issue, if I go into setting and manually turn it off and then back on the LED light comes on for 3 seconds and then goes off. Please advise on how to fix!

Dealership fixed mine with a update I think. Took it in and explained what it was doing and it's now working..

new 2019 gmc sierra park assist not working, checked all settings, read manual, called dealer said need appt to check computer,

watched some videos on troubleshooting not much help, went out to truck with windex and papertowel, wiped all sensors and all cameras and presto park assist working just fine. had just driven down a wet dirt road 2 miles, sensors didn't look dirty but must be very sensitive. if you take your truck to dealer ,make appt and waste your time the dealer will say reset computer, or something, dealer gets paid for warr. call and tech gets his time, and all they will do is clean your sensors presto its fixed. hope this saves someone the trouble and time.

Washed my truck the day it got cold here. Got a warning park assist was off. Few minutes later it was back on but constantly going off on drivers side front. I wiped clean and saw no ice on the sensors. Really annoying in rush hour traffic. I was busy and unable to get to dealer, plus taking a few days thinking it may clear itself. A few days later the weather warmed up and it’s been fine since. 

I chalked it up to washing in the bitter cold.

This goes back to the NNBS, I have the exact same thing on my 2008 right after a wash, then it goes back to working whenever it feels like, its just a known issue happens on the SUVs aswell, poor engineering.

    • My brother has a 2007 Avalanche with afm 5.3. It`s got 176,000 miles. Runs like a clock. Never been apart. Co worker has a 2010 Tahoe with afm 5.3. 230,000 miles. Never been apart. Runs like a clock. So, even though cyl deac is a weak spot, they can go the distance.   BUT, these engines had the oil changed regularly, AND had 5w30 as spec. I wonder if they would have lasted this far on 0w20? I`ll bet not.
    • I certainly could be wrong but I hear of pickups far newer than that 2007 cutoff which may not be going to the wrecker but are having engine work done and be that a reman engine or new engine or trying to repair the existing engine. Some of it would be design issues as per the cylinder deactivation system that GM has and one of those lifters wiping out the cam and the question of oil changes moving the needle or not on that whole mess, or in the case of Ford pickup engines that have the long timing chains and wearing them out and the roller followers and phasers and some of that certainly goes back to oil change intervals. But in those various cases the truck has all sorts of life left in it and so the unfortunate owner and may be original owner or used market owner that is pouring money into repairs so the truck is not seeing the salvage yard yet but damage is happening by infrequent oil changes. A friends son had bought a 2018 I think it is half ton GM and it had some sort of extended or used dealer warranty on it and of course the lifter issue bites and its rattling and so the dealer had to swallow the bill and was at least 7000.00 and I think they only replaced what they felt they had to replace so yeah, I can see that being a ticking time bomb in the not too distant future. Would frequent oil changes cure all these engineering "marvels", probably not but some engine designs have shown that they do much better if the oil is changed a lot more often then if the manufacturer service claims are followed. New trucks cost so much that there is an incentive to keep the existing truck on the road by repairing. 
    • get a good code reader, and find out what problems the truck has noticed by reading codes. cheap ones can only get basic engine codes, you may want to get one that can get codes from all the computers in your truck.
    • This is sort of my point, salvage yards aren't overflowing with all these 'poorly' maintained trucks - excellent/good/servicable condition otherwise, salvaged only as a result of a bad engine from poor oil change regiment.    In my area, there are no 2007 to newer gm trucks/suvs in any salvage yards. A few are in the 'recyclers' with very obvious reasons for being there - wrecked.
    • Stabilitrack was a stability control, traction control system, that functioned independently from the transfer case.   Z-71 has nothing to do with the transfer case or differential.   If it does have an AWD system, my memory recalls this being specific to the Denali trim, converting won't be as simple as swapping out mechanical parts like differentials and transfer cases. It will require reprogramming at a minimum. Long story short, not likely worth it.   Pulling a fuse, may disable the AWD system, it might also prevent any other transfer case functions.   However, the AWD case was generally based on the same transfer case you refer to in the 2006 Suburban. If it still has a 4-High and 4-Low where the transfer case locks and splits power 50-50 front to rear, what are you gaining by changing anything? A true-rear wheel drive only, what good will that serve? Not enough to go through the trouble of changing out all the parts.    Generally, all the factory systems will handle a 33" tire and re-gearing. Probably a 35" tire too, if you aren't driving like a caveman. If 35" tires are in the plan...   If you do plan on driving like a caveman or are fully committed to 35" tires, an entire re-think of the build is probably in order. Starting with square one, an IFS front end isn't going to be the best starting point for 35's and caveman driving.
