Hi guys I'm new to the site.

I have been doing some searching to try and diagnose my problem.  I have a 2017 Silverado 1500 and I keep getting a 2635 code.  It's out of warranty so I am trying to figure it out without taking it to the dealer.  It was at the dealer a few weeks ago for this problem and they replaced the fuel tank pressure sensor and the EVAP purge valve.  I also ordered a fuel line pressure sensor and will be replacing that in a few days.  I can clear the code and it will come back a few days later.  I also noticed to day that my volts gauge dropped to around 12v when I was driving and the cel came on shortly after.  Somehow my voltage drop is affecting my fuel pump performance.  The voltage drop is completely random from rpm/speed/or what electronics are on.  Sometimes it will be just over 14 and other times it drops to around 12.  It doesn't jump around and it usually stays at that reading for a while.  Anybody have any ideas?  Alternator?  short circuit?   Thanks

Ok thanks I will look into that.

Are the schematics posted on this site anywhere?  Looking for the location of that ground.  I'm assuming it is close to the tank/spare tire and grounded to the frame.

Well that didn't fix the problem.  I replaced the fuel line pressure sensor and also cleaned the ground located under the drivers door.  I also checked the two grounds located in the front corners of the dash and they looked fine.  For some reason when my alternator switches to the lower amp setting around 12.6V and I give it moderate acceleration I get a cel with p2635 code.  Anyone have any other ideas?

I am also curious what you figured out, I just bought a 2017 and mine is doing the same thing with the battery voltage and throwing the same code. The fuel pump at the tank also has that scream that the late '90's Chevy's had before they went out.

I am also curious if you ever found a solution.

I am having this identical issue with a 2017 GMC 2500 with the 6.0...everything you said I am having the same issue with...Does anyone think changing the battery could be a fix?

Hi all, I'm having the same issue with the code P2635 on my 2017 GMC 1500 4wd in including the voltage drop. Has any body find the solution to the problem?

SAME 2017 Siverado. Replaced battery awhile back. Now P2635. The more I look into it the more I hate Chey. Some people are saying it's a problem with the programming of the computer

Sprayed computer above spare tire with carb cleaner haven't had the code come back been a couple days. I did replace battery at 30,000miles. 2017 silverado. Fingers crossed 🤞

    • I'm looking at carpal tunnel surgery on my left hand and lumbar fusion. 
    • While waiting for parts I have been working on installing the AC compressor, new accumulator, and orifice tube. Also changed out the high side ball valve (original). The orifice tube that was in there wasn't too bad. Slightly dirty, a little bit of junk, but not blocked. Glad I changed it out.   The accumulator, which should have been a 5 minute job, may have just burned $50. Put some PAG in it, wrote the date and mileage on the side, fresh o-rings and gooey'd up the threads and rings with Nylog. Got everything connected and snugged and was going to vacuum down the system, and....   My manifold gauge won't fit on the port. It's not an R12 service port. It LOOKS like an R134 service port but the diameter is a hair too large. There's a sticker on the accumulator that says it's designed to be used with R12 and R134a systems only. So it's not R1234yf. Even if I reduced the diameter slightly with a file, the shoulder on the port is too large so the quick-connect valve won't lock on. I'm stumped. It's going back, and 50/50 on if they'll give me a refund.   Also, I did a fuel pressure test.... Key on, the gauge spikes to about 60psi and quickly bleeds off, like 2psi per second. The fuel isn't going into the plenum, no smell, starts fine, so I'm guessing there's a bad check valve in the pump and the fuel is just draining back into the tank. oh, hell. But, it shouldn't be a problem, pump primes just fine and the truck starts right up. It just means I can't really ever use fuel pressure to verify a leak at the injector or intake.
    • Got this yesterday out of nowhere. Truck is a 25',6.6 gasser with 8k miles.  Only semi anomaly is that the truck had been sitting, uncranked for 6 days. Elec Stability Control showed immediately upon cranking, not while driving. No drivability issues, just the message. Battery didn't seem to be weak when cranking over.  I drove it, killed it, let it sit a few hrs with no avail.  Truck is 100% stock. No damage. 
    • This can be done.  It is not cheap and requires an instrument cluster swap with custom programming, new steering wheel with the controls on it, and a special jumper harness.   The cluster upgrade - 12.3” Digital Cluster Upgrade – 2022.5–2026 Silverado / Sierra (T1 Refresh Pickup) - WAMS   The wheel upgrade - Steering Wheel Upgrade Kit – 2022.5–2026 Silverado / Sierra (T1 Refresh Pickup) - WAMS   The column harness upgrade - 2019 - 2026 Silverado / Sierra: Steering Wheel LIN Bus Harness - Harness Dr. - DIY Done Right     The problem with doing all of this?  You pretty much can't have any programming done to your truck that involves the cluster ever again.  The dealer won't be able to program the cluster as GM's system will only pull data for the cluster the truck came with.  So it would be advised also to turn off over the air updates.   TLDR;  Should have bought an LT double cab?  You'd have a power seat, the wheel controls, the cluster, all things that you've been seeking in your various posts so far about your new WT regular cab.
