I have my truck (2019, new body style, crew cab, WT, ~5.5k miles) now at a different dealership. I figured since several dealerships in my area seem slow that they would spend more time investigating the problem.  My codes are like those previously posted by others, but without the P codes.  When I scan the modules (Bluedriver scan tool), codes are either pending or in the history.  It may take several tries to clear the codes leading me to think there is a connection issue to one or several modules (or a short). I dropped the vehicle off Tuesday morning and last night was informed they were going to spend Thursday going into more diagnostics, vague so far but the service advisor seems to be willing to help (unlike the previous dealership I went to several times).

I just signed up for a 1 day repairprocedures.com subscription. It's $15, but they have a pretty awesome archive of info, including what appears to be a full service manual.   Anyway, the de

A lot of people seem to have this issue after getting the last brake service module recall completed. I got mine completed about a month ago. All was fine until today. I’m thinking the two are connected somehow. Definitely smells like a software issue. But dang, how many more times do we need to get this thing software updated.

Some good news:  My dealership called moments ago and said that Chevy had new module updates (posting yesterday) regarding this issue and that they are going to apply them today and further test drive on Monday to confirm.  I will let you know more when I get the truck back and post any relevant info.

 

****Update

Dealer said they applied TSB# PIT5735a which I believe is this:

No error codes - I will update later this week


 

So basically the brake module is staying on (after turning vehicle off) and reading the wheel sensor. Dealer said they flashed brake module with new firmware to fix issue. The TSB dated 3/4 mentions that GM will provide an update later to correct issue. From my understanding the dealer just got this new update a few days ago. Time will tell. 

So if all of the error codes are listed under the brake module then this is your problem. In my case, the bluedriver scanner shows the truck's error codes were from the brake module.

Add me to the club. 19 Silverado Z71 Had oil change and brake reprogram recall done last week. Check engine on today with U0100, U0101, U0146 and P25A2. Check engine now off when I shut it off and started it ten min later.

I originally had the brake control module software update done 2 months ago.  (Brake pad life Remaining percentage was counting down too fast).  I got my first check engine light with codes about a week after that.  I used my scan tool and cleared the codes. 
 

but then, 2 weeks ago, I get a letter from big (corporate) Chevrolet saying that there is an issue with the brake control module software that needs to be addressed.  The letter also stated that, “even if you have already had the software update done in the past, it will need to be re-updated again.“ so I took my truck back to the dealer again, 2 days ago for the second time for this same “update”. Guess the first software update had a bug.  
 

so far so good with no check engine light or engine codes. Idon’t know if the faulty software update and the engine codeissue is related, but so far so good.  I’ll keep you all updated

Gentlemen we have a fix.  PIT5735B has corrected the issue.  I had the software update for the BSCM/brake module controller applied to my truck on May 27 2020.  The PDF does not look like it is published online yet, so it is attached below.

 

Had a GM engineer apply the BSCM with the mechanic at the dealership.  The engineer also mentioned the PIT5730A & PIT5735B are both addressed in the same latest software update.

 

If you read the description it is caused by the vechicle just rolling a little when parked.  Although have never had a auto issue raise so many codes period; especially for a root cause being so minor.

Wanted to add in my experience here.   Had same CEL and codes thrown after 13K miles, so I scheduled an appt with local dealership.   Three engine cycles later the light went out and codes went to ‘historical’ status.  
 

When I got to the dealership, the check in guy said “if no current light, the we can’t help ya” and tried to send me on my way.   I insisted they look at it and after a 5 min back and forth they agreed to bring it back and take a look.
 

Thirty min or so later they came back and said they just so happened to find a ‘software bug’ and reprogrammed the BSCM.  
 

The service bulletin related to this bug was listed on work order: 20-na-155 (Image Attached)

      Mixed info from dealer and manual RE: 10 Speed 45K service

      By tjonesdfw · Posted

      I'm the original poster of this thread; I'm 85,000 miles now with no transmission issues after they did the fluid change without filter at 45,000.  I plan on a fluid change AND filter in another 5,000 miles and agree with you on staying to witness what happens if possible.  Ideally I would have done the filter at 45,000 too, but my original dealer was incompetent.  I've since moved on and get service done by another more reputable dealer, so I'm hopeful they follow the correct procedure at 90,000.

      Sure, but they do have some affordable options like the Trax, Trailblazer, Envista, and Encore. Some of these have a cheaper base price than the Civic, though the fuel economy isn’t as high. The main problem is that people WANT the highest trim with all the goodies and finance for like 7 years. That’s how ppl “afford” the more expensive vehicles.

      Holy s**t - not much of a parts thrower you say? You BLASTED that thing with the parts cannon!  You'd have been probably $1,000 ahead if you had just brought it to a competent shop rather than shotgunning a bunch of parts it clearly didn't need.   Just FYI - oil additives are really, REALLY good at ONE thing ... and that's emptying your wallet. They're ALL useless gimmicks.   If that has the L94 or L99, then #7 is an AFM cylinder. I'd suspect a failed lifter in that case.   If you leaned on wiring, sensors, and/or connectors while changing the oil, you'll have to check all that to be sure pins didn't get pulled out, connectors broken, etc.. Old wire loom that was barely adequate when new is certainly brittle by year 19 - make sure wires aren't chaffed and shorting out somewhere where you might have leaned. or supported yourself on it.   If your a mechanic, why didn't you just find out what you were missing and troubleshoot from there??  TIMED spark, fuel PSI / injector pulse, air, compression.  Can't make ANY money going the parts cannon route.

      LOL! Are you joking?? That wax SUCKS! 100% gimmick made to "look" good.    After just TWO winters I had severe surface rusting in patches over 90% of the frame. Only reason it looks great in the pics is because I SATURATED the frame every single fall with used motor oil for 14 of the 16 years I owned it. Otherwise it would've been sent to the crusher 8 years earlier with the speed it was rusting prior!    I sold that POS 3 years ago. Was a gigantic headache the second it rolled off the showroom floor. Brakes pulsated on the TEST DRIVE. Door trim fell off the 1st week! Interior squeaked and rattled, and the drivetrain clunked after 2k miles. 4x4 switch failed shortly after. Front end - ball joints, struts, hub bearings - all failed between 38k-50k. Engine started burning oil at 50k. Rear and and transmission failed before 100k. Nothing but problems, and frustration with the piss-poor engineering designed to make you give up. Well, it worked! Nothing on that truck was easy to remove ... except the wheels. They haven't figured out how to screw that up yet. Give 'em time ...   I won't make that mistake again. EVER.   Such fond memories ... https://postimg.cc/K1qf23tS  https://postimg.cc/gallery/X02z64J  https://postimg.cc/gallery/mHSRXZv  https://postimg.cc/gallery/D4mMRfL

      OBD not ready?

      By davester · Posted

      Different monitors do their test only under conditions specific to that monitor.  you MIGHT find the drive cycle conditions for the monitor that isn't ready on this site: https://lemon-manuals.la/   If it's not there, then it should be on alldata.com for your truck, but it requires a paid subscription.   And you need to know which specific monitor isn't ready.
