I have a 2019 AT4 that every time I start the truck and select Nav, I get the following message:

 

SD card message: Once initialized, this SD card can only be used for navigation in this vehicle. 

 

My my only option is to hit the confirm button on the screen and then my Nav map will load with no further issues. Does anyone know how to clear this message so it doesn’t show up every time I start my truck. Thanks in advance for the help.

Mine did that and once I set up a user it went away.

Thanks for the feedback. I did set up a user profile on my truck recently, but am still getting the message.

There is another thread on this. The problem is that the card is locked and cant be written to. The truck is trying to initialize the card and write data to it but it cant. Floppy disks used to have the same thing back in the day.

 

Pull the card out and look on the side. There is a little tab. Move it to the unlocked position, put the card back in, start the truck, and then it will happen more time, press confirm, and you shouldn't see it again.

 

Same thing happened with my truck.

After updating to 807 and replacing the SD Card and card receptacle, GM now wants to replace the radio control module, which requires two visits, one where they need to get the number off the current unit and another to replace same.

 

I want them to go to back to 509, the last known working version which had no problem at all.

 

Has anyone been successful in getting a dealer to go back to an earlier software version?

 

Any other updates anyone? Please provide the latest status.

 

Thank you.

I am having this same issue.  My dealer too wants to replace the radio module.  I am not thrilled about them tearing apart the dashboard in my 9 day old 1500 Denali.  Has anyone had any luck in getting this issue resolved?  Currently, the SD card has been replaced as well as the SD card reader.  Anyone able to help?

Similar issue.  SD card removed error randomly occurring riding down the road.  Not all the time.  However, I could make it happen error by disconnecting the USB cable from the truck side outlet.  At which point the USB ports (dash and console) were dead (no power; no Apple Carplay) until some time later usually sitting overnight.  Dealership replaced SD card today....didnt fix it.  So I demonstrated the issue to the tech, so they took it back again.  After an hour of waiting this morning they are replacing the radio module (I think).  I was told the dash had already been taken apart, so they gave me a loaner.  New parts to arrive on Monday, so we'll see if its fixed then.

 

Hoping this fixes the issue, but I am going to be meticulous in making sure none of the trim is scratched or loose.  Only had the truck for a month...

I just got my 2021 AT4 and was getting this same message and unlocking the SD card did the trick.  My question is why was it locked to begin with, is this something the dealer did inadvertently or did it come from the assembly line this way.  Anyway, my problem is fixed thanks for the post.

I am having the same issue. I have a 2021 AT4 with 600 miles on it. The dealership told me that the SD card needed to be replaced. So they are ordering me one in. At the same time I had a check engine light come on and on star told me it was throwing a P00C7 code. I had a 2019 AT4 and had nothing but trouble with it. The dealership told me that it was uncommon to have this many problems with this truck, that’s why I traded for a new one. Now I’m having problems with the new one already. I’m starting to loose confidence in GM.

Where is the SD card located? Please and thank you!

      Tire psi

      By jgaudet99 · Posted

      My truck is a ¾ ton but my placard also says 80 for the rear tires, I think I might have the upgraded suspension to the 3500 series maybe.   I put my air down to 60 and the light was still on, and there was no way I was putting over 60 psi in the rear empty and not towing because I knew the actual number Toyo gave me and I didn't wanna ruin the center of my tires!   And you actually can change it in the settings from metric or is and it will show kph or mph then when you go into your tire settings it will be either psi or kpa, but it would be nice to just change it directly on the tire psi page

      Common Sense Assembly   Your driveline is forgiving of the occasional mistake. It will even often forgive the random serious blunder. But it will not forgive a continuous bad habit.      What? Not everything needs to be a five thousand word essay.

      We drove about 15 minute east today to visit a friend and saw a steep increase in price in the same county. About 50 cents a gallon steepper.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Sure about that? A degree wheel and a dial indicator would lower your degree of assurance in that statement. 😉    It why we have offset keys and dialable timing sprockets. Just say'n.... I've built a few and have never seen one "On the money".

      Tire psi

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I will admit I haven't experimented much with pressure drops beyond the numbers I put in and part of that is that the numbers I used are fairly low and then found out it would trigger regardless at that 35 psi. Having said that I had tried before had changed the placard pressures and being that I have a 1 ton set to 80 on the placard for the rear I believe it triggered close to 60, the front I don't recall now for sure but thought maybe it could get close to 45 from that factory 60 placard pressure. So I never did figure out if it was a number of psi from placard pressure to the alarm or a percentage of the total placard number as some figured it was like a 25% drop from placard pressure would trigger it. So as to try and answer your question, I believe I set the placard pressure on the front to 47 or so and while I run the front tires at 40, they have dipped below that some if its colder and I haven't put "winter air" in yet and never once have had the front alarm go off. I would say that the answer your looking for is no, that if you set your placard pressure to 45, you have a certain amount of room to drop below that pressure before the alarm will go off.    The pressures you decide to run in your truck, that ends up being what makes sense to you based on what your carrying in your truck or if towing, then have to bump them back up to something that will carry the load in the rear and the fronts typically left at the same pressure. It all comes down to that chart I put the link to and using an accurate roadside scale to be your guide, both unloaded and then loaded to know your minimum safe pressures.    I just wish GM would allow a person to change the readings for the tire pressures to the English system of pounds as I have to look at that goofy metric reading that will never ever jive in my head and will go over and change it just to figure out what they are if need be and then change it back.
