Bought my 2014 Brand New (ordered it) when they changed the body style.  I have 143k miles on it and yesterday the weirdest thing happened.  The power mirrors stopped working.  When I would hold down the lock they would fold in.  When in reverse they would tilt so I can see backing up (have a 7 inch Rough Country lift since day 1) so I got use to the mirrors tilting.  The other odd thing is the tilt mirror (power options) is not showing up on the radio anymore.  I use to have an option on the radio to set preferences for power mirrors but it is like I it never existed.  The frustrating part is I just paid 150.00 bucks for the map update and good ole GM sent me a 2005 USB stick and I updated the maps.  It installed successfully and I didn't get any errors but now my power mirror option on the radio is gone?  I called GM Nav Entertainment team and all they said is take it to the dealership.  I'm a software engineer and didn't want to take it into a dealership to pay them to troubleshoot a tech update problem.  I called the dealership and asked questions and all they said was bring it in.


I googled and researched forums, tech fuse specs etc.  Did anyone have similar problems?  All my fuses are good.  The turn signal still works in both but it is very strange the radio doesn't even  act like power mirrors are installed.

 

Any ideas?


Thank you

Ok I did more troubleshooting and it is not just the mirror.  My power seat won't work and my driver memory 'drive 1' and 'driver 2' wont work.  Can't move the seats and mirrors can't be adjusted ???

 

Back to the drawing board and more research...any ideas?

Pgamboa would be the guy to touch base with. He’s an electrical genius with our trucks.

Disconnect the battery for about 30 minutes, let the truck reset itself, connect it back and see what happens.

So after more troubleshooting and realizing all the options on the radio were missing:  All the convenience options were gone.  I  did what JimCost2014 said and disconnected the battery for 30 mins.  Reconnected and the console had me walk through factory settings.  Once I did that everything was back to normal.  The only thing I did prior to the issues was update the map via USB but the mirror and power issues didn't happen until 2 weeks later.  I didn't have anything change so I'm not sure what caused the issue or what the disconnect of the battery (reset) was needed.  Bad thing is I lost all my settings on the radio, GPS, favorite locations, and GPS history.

 

I can only imagine what the dealership would have charged and told me.  I probably would have paid for a computer ones and zero upgrade compliance and factory reset charge, diagnostic charge, 2 hours of service and big 600.00 bill that would take away from my Natural Light beer fund.


Thank you JimCost2014!!!

 

Still love my Chevy :-)

I just had this problem on my 2014 Denali.  Mirrors were folded while parked, when got back in they wouldn’t return.  And realized Power driver seat wouldn’t work and settings in menu were missing.  Checked a bunch of fuses, all good.  Thankfully found your post before taking it to the shop…disconnected battery for 30 min and all is back to normal.  Many thanks to JimCost2014 you saved me a bunch of money!

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.

      In the 80's 90's I'd run Honda's 7,500 miles between changes using Red Line HP 5W20 and do it for hundreds of thousands of miles with issues. Back in the day it was an SAE 20 with the HTHS of a SAE 30 and SN add load. It was also very polar. Oxidation VOA was over 120. Besides those motors were SPFI and lean burn tech. I could have likely run it longer but never did.    We had a Toyota bought new I ran on Pennzoil's latest and greatest synthetic of the day with "Penthane". A made up word for a very low dose of PAO. Tried 7,500 mile OCI's in that Group III/VI chemistry and the rings tapped out at 90K. Rocker box wasn't as bad as the one Punch put up but it wasn't good either. Also a SPFI motor.    I'm around 3,750 across the board on these GDI monsters and the oil it tapped out by then usually on TBN/TAN crossover and color. Red Line HP Euro.    The AMSOIL SS brochures tell you to follow the OEM values for the service class but that it can be run up to 25K if monitored. I can't imagine what motor could go that distance and not tap out. I've never owned one.    Yes, I know. Lot's of people do. I'm just not going to be one of them.

      I knew a guy in the early 80's that bought a new Monte Carlo and ran it a 100,000 miles without ever changing the filter or the oil. Just kept adding. It looked like that inside.

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By whenindoubtuseahammer · Posted

      Good evening. I was lucky enough to get passed down to me a 2007 GMC LBZ that was my great uncle's. While the underside and rockers are more or less gone I feel like with time I can restore it to working order since it only has 110,000 miles and he put nearly every option he could get without getting the new body style since he did not trust DEF. So far I have done everything I can think of but when I put the key into the ignition nothing happens. I put 2 brand new batteries in it. Cleaned the terminals. Check all the fuses and relays and they all pass with my multimeter. I know I'm missing something that I just cant think of. The only odd thing is the OBD2 port works which makes me think its not the mega fuse. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

      Looks nice. I still have my 2000, 1500. Bought a 2025, 1500 for retirement. Feels solid. These trucks have a bad rap on the internet. My brother has a `24 1500, 5.3 with 52,000 miles. No problems at all. Mine hasn`t either but mine`s only at 12,700 miles. Have seen some of these things with 100,000 miles with no problems.
