Is the audio issue resolved? If so, were you able to trace the connector's location?

My audio is back to true uninterrupted sound again. I have not been back to the dealership to find out what the connector they fixed was but it was definitely the culprit that has caused me grief over the last 3 years. I know they told me initially what it was but I do not know enough about the electrical system to really understand. I just know the connector was bent and changes in the temperature would allow it to temporarily expand enough to lose connection and thus no sound.

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

Thanks for the feedback! Glad it's working for you.

Really hoping you have got us all an answer to the connector they replaced.  Been having this same issues going on 4 years now.  Any updates?  Or have the dealers # so we can call and ask...

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 my truck for hundreds of miles for some reason in the process.  None of these fixes actually fixed anything. 

 

 I found my issue at an audio component just above the passenger side kick panel. While the head unit was playing audio I reached up and wiggled the connectors untill I started to have the audio cut in and out. Pulled that connector and tweaked the pins with a small pick and reinstalled.  Boom... No more audio issues.

I asked my dealer what the name of the piece was. They said it was a wire harness connector (and they called it an Ethernet connector) beneath the glove box on the passenger side. The male pins were getting bent by the female receiver and once they replaced the female part, smooth sailing ever since. Hope this helps! Cheers.

Awesome thank you sooo much.  I'm going to give this a shot.

We had this problem with our new 2024 GMC Sierra. Just returned from dealership who diagnosed it as a problem with amplifier. Part is on order so hopefully when it’s replaced the problem will be solved.

This happened to our new 2024 Sierra. Took it in to dealership. They determined it was a bad amplifier. Part was replaced and everything works now.

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.

Hi, our 2018 Equinox LS lost audio a second time, 1/6/2025, last evening. A fix, for the 1st time thru GM tech service & Onstar, was to turn off car & leave door open at least 3 mins. It could be a software bug...but not sure. Last nite wife pulled in garage, left car door open, came in house. Several mins later she started car, radio back on. Why radio went out...dont know. Nobody can answer. Multi million $ company you'd think would know. But at least that 'fix' worked for us. There's about 82,000 miles on it.

I have a 2023 Silverado. The sound not working, happens sometimes. Ever since the "Software upgrade" the volume goes FULL VOLUME and I can't turn it down. The steering wheel controls don't work and neither does the dash control. I can't even turn off the radio. I have to stop. Turn the truck off and hope it works when I restart. There is also sometimes problems with the lights not working. I have to turn the truck off and do a restart. Like a computer. I blame the last upgarde.

      5 Best Slide Down Gameplay Tips! 

      By lanaderay · Posted

      Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!

      Why I Recommend a Desiccant Air Dryer for Cleaner, Drier Compressed Air

      By lingyuair · Posted

      If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      I went another direction after losing a trailer tire, thanks to not being able to access air at ANY of the 5 gas stations and garages I stopped at prior, with a Toyota Tacoma onboard, 50 miles from the Canadian border. They were either out of order, access was blocked, or the hose a few feet too short and I couldn't get any closer without risking damage to someone's property.   https://postimg.cc/gallery/X5QJ55w

      I took a 12 second video on my iphone but the file is too big to upload. I will have to figure out how to extract the audio or just do another start with an audio recording.
