My 2020 did not come with an SD navigation card.  Dealership told me I could buy one and utilize the nav system "offline" (no subscription services, no data plan).  Have not found good info online so far that says the same...  Can anyone confirm?  If I buy  a card and plug it in will this work?  Where do I buy the card?

Any updates on this anyone?   I'm still having the difficulty with this.   Now on Version 807.   Thanks.

Evidently the SD card must be "Ejected Properly" here's a link explaining what's going on and how to fix it...     https://gm-techlink.com/?p=13677

Same thing on my 2019 with 800 miles on it. GMC needs some quality controls at the plant. Now I remember why I have been driving Lexus for ten years -never a problem. 
 
dealer said that they will order a new card reader but don’t think that’s the problem. I guess I don’t have nav in my $70k vehicle why they try to figure out what their problem is. 
 
**update: flipped the switch on the card and now it works. Not going to tell the dealer just in case but Nav is working again now

My wife had a NX200t F Sport and had nothing but problems with her radio, traded it and got an Acadia Denali. All brands have issues

I am having the same problem with my 2019 Colorado ZR2, and haven't been able to use the Navigation system  properly in months due to this!

 

Corporate had me bring my truck in to a dealer for a software update; Version 807, which they stated will be released as an over the air update in January.

 

They stated they were absolutely confident that this would solve the problem, as the software was created to solve this particular problem.

 

Well… guess what… the problem remains!

 

Beyond upsetting that after all this time, and the assurances provided, that there’s no resolution in sight!

 

Anyone else have any news to report?

 

Anyone find resolution? If so, how?

 

What has corporate / your dealers been telling you?

Total BS.  If you have the Nav system, you get a card.  Note the cards are serialized to the truck, so you can't take one out of a buddy's truck and swap it to see if it works.  Call you (idiotic) dealer and explain to them that you were not given the SD card for your NAV system.

Had this exact same issue with my new 2020 AT4 (CarbonPro) diesel.  Would not work while at the dealership, but I drove 500 miles to get my truck (and it was Saturday Evening) so I made the trip home without NAV.  After I got home, I was troubleshooting (seeing if other connections inside the console worked) and after plugging a USB cable into the jack next to the SD slot, it started working.  This was the first time the SD card ever worked as it then began to "initialize" the card for the NAV system.  Figure it was a loose connector on the cable or the jackplate.  Every once in a while, I'll get a "SD card removed" error after I'm messing around inside the console, so there's likely an intermittent connection issue there.  I'll have a look at it when I get around to installing my AutoStop Eliminator.

 

Anybody seen a TSB on this?

My finally got fixed had to have take it to the dealership and they had to download a software update to the radio that The dealer could only get. It took two days for them to get the software to download even to their computer. It’s been working for me since it only messes up sometimes but it fixes itself.

what software version(s) does your system report now?

After researching the Nav upgrade for my 2020 Silverado 1500 I had my dealer order the card and they're going to install all the software and updates when it comes in.

I could have saved a few bucks by ordering it myself but this way their warranty covers it.

I've read about all the problems you all are having so I'm aware things might not all be rosy for awhile so we'll see.

Now on Version 807.

 

Thanks. :(

Bummer, I got the updates last week, and after a couple of days, I'm still having all the same crashing issues too.  so it would appear the update didn't fix anything.

Is the lock position on the nav SD card switch UP toward the top of the card or DN toward the contacts?  I want to try this.  Thank you.

Hi Andrew,

 

So your SD Card Removed problem has been resolved?

 

Can you please give us a break down of your whole matter and which vehicle you have.

 

My 2019 Colorado ZR2 had ZERO problems on what I believe was software version 509.

 

Did an over the air update at home to 805 and the SD Card Removed error started happening.

 

Often had to drive without NAV, which was annoying, as I specifically wanted a NAV truck.

 

Dealer did an update to 807 and the problems became worse with the system freezing, going black and restarting frequently.

 

They now want to replace the SD Card receptacle (jack/cable).

 

Can you please give a complete, detailed break down of what you did and how you got them to finally fix yours.

 

Do you have any problems at all now with your infotainment system?

 

I'm concerned with what you wrote: "it only messes up sometimes".

 

Please explain.

 

Thanks so much.

They replaced the sd card first, reader part, the usb cable, the whole radio unit, and finally they called GM and got a software patch that the dealership had to download it. It took them two day’s to get it to download to their computers. After the patch update it was fixed. It’s been okay every since. At first sometimes it would still pop up the error message but it would fix itself and work right then. Last week the only random thing was my backup camara had a blue screen on it. But it finally came back after it sat awhile and worked. Your best bet is to take it to a dealer and have them call GM and have them install the patch for the radio system.

      AFM Experience

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Question @diyer2 on this line if you please. Are you saying the shudder is the system turning on and off at the frequency of the shudder? Guess I'm asking if you are saying you have seen it do this with the bi-direction scan tool in graph mode? If so have you been able to discern the 'trigger'. Something is telling to cycle rapidly.    My truck just started doing this recently. 197K on the clock. My response has been M5 anything under 55 mph. I treat it like a lugging stick shift. Gear down and let it spin a bit. Engauge M5, then tow mode and then M6 lets the trans stay in 5th but the AFM is active. Smooth like Skippy.    My thought was that as a machine ages the friction gets lower and as the system is load based, the lower friction would allow it to turn on at ever lower rpm until it reaches the lugging point. And yes I am ignorant of any minimum rpm requirement for the system. If you know that would be useful information.    As you know I run a Scan-Gauge II which allows me to watch the On/Off of the signal to the VLOM. While in the shudder mode I'm not seeing is cycle at that frequency or at all for that matter outside the triggers @newdude posted a few years back. Now is it possible that the refresh rate isn't fast enough to catch it? Maybe. It is why I asked my first question about graphing and trigging parameter.     As we have observed from members here the failure point is all over the map miles wise as you note yourself in your opening post. That by itself begs a few questions like fellows that comment on these lifters failing even after the system has been disabled. Long after. 😬   https://www.enginelabs.com/news/tech-tips-replacing-ls-active-fuel-management-lifters-with-melling/   The Gen5 lifters operate the same as the LS versions. In fact they are the same lifter.    https://www.enginelabs.com/tech-stories/sorting-out-gen-v-lt-lifter-failure-with-a-simple-valvetrain-fix/

      14-18 Sierra 1500 Heated Steering Wheel Help

      By SwitchBladeSierra · Posted

      UPDATE 2: Steering wheel control backlights and control of the cluster can supposedly be achieved by adding a wire to pin 20 of the cluster and tapping it to pin 2 of the main clock spring harness. I'm going to give it a shot - will update

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By newdude · Posted

      GM Global A pickups 2019-2022 can do OTA programming for the radio.  GM VIP (GM Global B) can do OTAs for almost every module on board.  So a 2022.5 and newer pickup can do OTAs for recalls like the 2.7 fuel flow recall.  EVs get OTAs that improve one pedal driving, radio issues, HVAC issues, updated battery management software, etc.     So age of the vehicle/what GM electrical platform its on will alter what amount of updates can be pushed on OTAs.

      Upgrade to a 2026 AT4 with the 3.0L Duramax

      By Blade8971 · Posted

      Thank You.   So far my new ride is making me look like a genius for going with the 3.0L, as my first fuel refill occurred over three weeks from when I took delivery.  This engine combination is very amazing.  So far no issues and had not done a regen yet.

      Correct way to service 2024 l8t allison trans?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I am curious as to how much fluid you put back in the transmission ( assuming you had replaced the filter to compare to my findings ) and then went through the process of warming up the trans before pulling the check plug to drain out the excess and if you measured how much came back out.    I just found it surprising that some claimed a certain amount less fluid being put in and then draining some back out. The attitude of the truck as per if the surface is level and how the trucks stance is would make quite a difference since the check plug is right at the front of the transmission.
