Got in my truck this morning, absolutely zero sound coming from entertainment system. I tried Sirius satellite, FM, Apple CarPlay. Nothing. Any ideas?

I had the same issues, first the dealer "fixed" the wiring, then replaced the AMP and said I had a rear window water leak, then replaced the head unit after doing "diagnostics" for over a week driving

Mine did this a couple of times a few months back.  The next time I started the truck the audio was back.

Exact thing happened to me. Cars are just computers now!

They should come out with a trim level called Reboot....nothing works when you first start the vehicle for a test drive and after that first start up, the vehicle does all sorts of odd things that are never able to be reliably replicated for troubleshooting.

I have a 2019 Chevrolet Traverse and I have been having the same issue of no sound, no audio from anything.  No blinker sound, no door chime and no radio.   It has been going on for several months, it was just going off every once in awhile and continuously got worse, now it will go off for days at a time then come back in.  Makes a popping sound when it goes off and comes back on.  Have contacted Chevrolet and have still not got it resolved.  My car was just out of warranty when the issue started.  I have taken to local Chevrolet dealer for diagnosis, but I really feel like they are just guessing.  Saying water is running from HVAC onto module and shorting it out, their fix is diversion of water for a lot of $$$ but who is to say the said module will even last if thats the case and I'm sure it is not a cheap part.  Getting very discouraged that Chevrolet won't get to the bottom of this issue and fix the problem.  Buying  a brand new vehicle, you would expect this would be addressed as I see I am not the only one with this problem.  Has anybody gotten it fixed and it stay fixed, I'm not convinced that it isn't a software problem.

I just got my truck a month ago. It’s a 2020 Silverado with 82 miles on it and it’s doing it now. Just got in it this morning and no sound for satellite radio or local tune. But, it will Bluetooth my iPhone and play music from it. Shaking my head!!

New 2021 Sierra SLT with about 140 miles on it. No radio sound and AM and FM tuners don't load. Sirius XM doesn't work. Bluetooth to my phone worked and played music. Started working after the truck was off for a while and restarted. Dealer says its not a known issue, but we'll see...

I'm having the same issue in my 2021 Sierra but the audio will dip out at random.  It doesn't matter what the source is (Alexa, FM, AM, USB) including taking a call via Android Auto if the audio is dipping out it will disappear from all sources.

I checked and my OnStar button is green.  Took a three hour drive yesterday and the problem slowly got worse untill about the halfway mark where the sound stopped working all together. The light remained green the whole time.

 

I spent the rest of my drive listening to music and nav directions on my $50 Walmart phone..... In my almost $60k 2021 truck.  Banannas, maybe I should have stuck with my Tundra.

When it happens to me, if you disconnect the negative battery terminal and reconnect, it seems to fix it. At least for me. I am cleaning up and improving grounds when I get the free time.

Same here.  It just happened to me yesterday.  No sound from radio, blinkers, safety belt warning alarm, etc.  I immediately disconnected the battery negative cable and waited about 2 minutes, then connected it back up.  Everything has been fine since.  Hope it doesn't happen again.  Only 8000 miles on the 2021 Sierra 1500 truck.

      Doors lock and mirrors fold in while driving

      By BIGBOYS · Posted

      I have a 2015 Silverado and sometimes I can not get in to the truck. I use the key to unlock the driver door. Something is locking the truck when I unlock it, last night I left the truck open and this morning it was locked with the mirrors folded in. This happens while driving so it is now a safety issue. I reach down for the folding button and they open, then they close again.  Any advice, thank you,   Ed

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

      By Atlas · Posted

      tl; dr I've now reached the 6th floor of hell. I'm chronicling my journey for my morning readers.   Pulling the top of the intake apart was moderately easy but it involved a lot of parts, connections, and minutae. I was preparing for the new fuel lines to arrive ("nut and bolt kit" it's called). The fuel line connections are notched and held in place by the manifold and a metal plate with a T27 screw.   It's on the back of the intake, under the firewall, with little clearance, and two hard metal fuel lines in the way. I was using Franken-tools (weird combinations of 1/4 inch ratchet with/without an extension, with a bit holder for my T27) to get in there. One of my sockets and bits fell off and has yet to emerge on the floor. I lost a second setup and that's when I almost started throwing tools. But that was the point at which I had gotten traction on the Torx head, and it promptly stripped. No more traction.   I started humming "1-877-kars-4-kids" because I was about at that point. You know what? I'm $1500 into this thing and I can make it disappear just as quickly. This isn't fun anymore. I had spent a lot of time already "tidying" around the engine bay: Fixing all the "someone's been here before!" BS. The truck has been exclusively dealer- and shop- serviced and I'm reminded of why I never let other people work on my cars unless absolutely necessary.   Speaking of dealer service. This truck has a 1" stack of records going back to 1995. I put them all in an excel spreadsheet, date/mileage/description.   The CPI spider has been replaced 4 times in 85k miles. The EGR? Another 4. Multiple, multiple O2 sensors. One Cat. 4? Sets of plugs and wires, and I swear half the stack is diagnosis paperwork for "misfire, runs rough, extended crank, dies at stoplights".   GM was producing some proper crap back then. And it was still well within the era of brittle/crappy plastic. (Windows 95 was released the same month this truck was sold new, we HAD the technology!!)   There (was) a plastic shroud around the evaporator core and HVAC fan in the engine bay. I noticed a chunk of it missing so I poked at it some more and it literally shattered. Touched it some more and pieces were crumbling off. Had a good laugh. Clearly whatever plastic garbage they were using had broken down over 30 years and was literally turning to dust. That was a good half hour of using a shop vac to remove the rest of it.   Back to it.   I was going to give up for the evening but then decided I'm already level 10 pissed off at the stripped screw: G* D* it, give me my tools back -- and my JOY. We'll do this the hard way: The whole intake is coming off.   Blazer won Round II. After finally finding and accessing the 12 intake bolts and using a pry bar to unseat it from the heads, it popped loose in an explosion of gunk and grime raining down into open ports. Awesome.   6 times I reminded myself: Be careful of the temperature sender on the front of the intake.   YEAH, I forgot again and snapped it clean off in the removal. Add another $20 to the ever-growing list of new parts this thing is consuming.   The shame is, long before removing the intake, I had changed the oil in prep for Tuesday's momentous fuel line replacement that was going to be the magic fix and I'd have a running Blazer to tool around in this next weekend. The intake removal, including raining gunk, also gushed dirty coolant all over the valley. Of course it did. Welp, there goes another $35.   I now need an intake gasket set, bolt set, coolant temp sensor, another 5 quarts of oil, some RTV. Don't worry, I've already got 3 new jugs of Dexcool and a thermostat waiting. I'll fill it with clean water first to get it running, dump it, and then add the Dex later on in case... well, let's not go there. I'm only tearing this down once, next time the truck is going on Marketplace for FREE.   Oh, and I'm going to need vacuum hose for all the stupid connections placed at the rear of the engine which have since disintegrated. Come on, GM....tell me you don't do that anymore?   Oh, and the ears on the distributor where the cap screws down are both cracked. I mean, why not put a new distributor in it too. You get a distributor, YOU get a distributor, Everyone gets a new distributor!   This truck isn't out of the woods yet...I'm already questioning how much more time I'm willing to sink in.

      Bent valve in 2025 GMC Canyon Denali - Requires engine swap at 14K miles

      By William Aldrich · Posted

      NewDude, thank you for the suggestions!    I did follow up and the dealer indicates he has an open CX case and is working with DPAC (Dealer Parts Assistance Center).   Per the dealer, GM has had a quality spill and is not providing an update for when a replacement engine will be available.
