P2635 Code

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 🤞

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I had skimmed through that article when you posted the link and honestly I felt rather defeated in a sense and realized that all these years in changing oil that in fact putting in what I was told was a good quality oil was probably not filtered as well as it should be although the filter put on the engine would be what ( as long as it never went into bypass mode ) would be the final filtering of the new oil that the engine components would first see, but then the filtering media itself is not up to par to what is ideal because a full flow filter would be too restrictive to filter fine enough for the engines best outcome in the long run. Only one of our tractors over the years which was a Versatile with a 855 Cummins had a separate bypass filter, some engine manufacturers did spec a partial bypass system within the main oil filter but I don't believe any other trucks or equipment I was servicing used such a filter. No doubt a product like the Amsoil bypass system is of benefit as long as nothing goes sideways with the extra plumbing and filter such as a rupture/leak that could cause the oil to pump out of the engine ( yes that Versatile had a remote canister with hoses routed to it as well ). With the idiot egr system on a diesel and as a result forcing a lot more soot into the oil, that certainly isn't helping the diesel engines cause or as you pointed out the GDI engine issue with creating more soot and aside from having a fancy secondary filtering system, changing the oil more often helping lower the total soot load.     So oil manufacturing and the end product is not something one can control and I wonder if there are specs on what various oil packaging companies produce in particle count or size. As to the filtering, if the OEM is not designing a filter size and spec that is really what it could be, they too are short changing the end user and so what is the answer. Of course as you say the oil side can only do so much if the air side isn't keeping up its end of the picture and air filters are only so efficient and if in a dusty environment such as farm or construction or driving gravel roads there is a lot of dirt to filter out and some of that ends up into the air stream.    Of course the irony in places like where I am where they dump the salt on the highways but also will mix in some calcium or outright pure calcium for problem road area's, or using calcium as dust control on gravel roads, the vehicle that gets used in that environment may rust out before a properly engineered engine and maintenance finally wears out so one has to face that reality in the rust belt.

      Has anyone run these on their 2500?

      Oil Change

      By Erfar · Posted

      have you stuck with dealer oil changes since then? I made the same switch after getting tired of crawling around under the truck, but I’ve found some dealers are way better than others about getting you in quickly. Curious if yours has been good about scheduling or if you’ve had to look elsewhere for quicker turnaround.

      Can anyone decode a VIN to determine if this truck has had emissions issues or a recall?

      By cherryred21duramax · Posted

      Thank you.   I am set on a 3.0 Duramax as my previous truck with a Ford Ecoboost had just as many, if not more, "common" issues.  Cam phasers, timing chain issues, 10-speed valve body and CDF drum, emissions issues, etc.  So I figured, why not get 2x the fuel mileage (these things got 27+mpg on every mixed city/highway test drive I put them through) and better towing capability with resale value to boot?   My minimum, shortest trip will be 50 miles 1-way and I regularly go out of state with a travel trailer.  I'm planning on using this for a marketing/event promotion business also, which would require regular towing of trailers for bands, DJs, sound and lighting gear, along with my personal camera gear for filming events.   Looked at other trucks in the $30k+ price range but the issues seem to be everywhere, plus too many with gaudy mods.  I'm literally sticking with RWD trucks because they tend to be actually used as trucks, vs. the 4x4 models I've seen with unsafe lifts, huge tires, and general mods that would affect reliability (I'm wondering if some of them were tuned, hence the aggressive throttle response and hard shifting).   So my goal is to find a stock, 3.0 with 1 or 2 owners, in good physical condition, and decently well maintained.  Can't seem to find that up here, everything in the $27-30k range has had multiple owners, smoke smell, issues, or body damage.  Or the ridiculously modified trucks with 80k miles for under $27k but lots of problems...

      That’s pretty tough Grumpy. I reread the previous few posts. They all reference oil changes. Much like your last thread. In my humble opinion it keeps things interesting.
