Hello,

 

I had my truck for over 3 years and I no longer have a warranty active on my truck. thought maybe you guys know what the issue is with the sound. I had great sound coming from the speakers, but recently, the treble went out and all I get is bass from the front door speakers, sometimes the treble will go out on the dash speakers and the rear door speakers are no longer working. I've been trying to search online and through the manual, but it doesn't say anything about what would cause this issue. I called the dealership and they said the radio possibly is going out or the amplifiers are going out. Can you please help me figure this out?

 

Thanks.

Go to radio and gade and balance it to each door and see if you hear anything. The rear doors are bass, front doors are mids, and dash are high. But it is set more like a component set and will still work a little. Then remove panels and meter speaker if blown just replace.

Where do I go on that? I don't have any options for that setting. I only have EQ to where I can set low, mid and highs. I'm using the chevy mylink radio.

 

UPDATE: I tried seeing if there is a hidden setting for any way to set the audio settings and getting my full sound back, but there was nothing there that helped me out. It just doesn't show how to get my sound back. I really don't want to spend a lot on my truck to get my sound back. I highly doubt my speakers have gone bad.

It should be a visual representation of the balance next to those settings. You are able to move the center circle around in that representation to control your front to back and right to left.

Give me a bit and I'll get to my truck and take pictures of what I see. I'm currently at work sitting in the office waiting for paperwork and cannot leave the office unless something frees me up so I can get to my truck and have a quick smoke.

 

UPDATE: I got in my truck and I found that setting. I adjusted it and had it set to just the rear speakers and barely any sound, even at full volume. set it to barely in the front and the front door speakers, you only hear bass and the dash speakers keep cutting the treble in and out.

Yes that circle and move it back and right and then check rear passenger door. And so on for all doors. But what is this system? Bose amp? Because you can troubleshoot it will fuses but if it is speakers that is a different story.

1slow1500,
Missing the highs in the doors sounds like blown cones doesn't it? But I'm not sure why his dash highs would be clipping.

Yeah if you knew it was a bose then you can go to wires in kick panels or even door jam and meter them. But honestly it is so easy to remove door panels I would just pull those off. Hate.to see you buy speakers and have a blown amp.

I'm not sure about dj_overspin, but I know mine is not bose and regret it ever since I got rid of my hoe that had it. It is like night and day between the two.

Yeah, I just saw it on there. I didn't even pay attention to the screen till I actually looked. Got used to having dials to tell you how to balance your sound.

 

But back to my update from before, I adjusted it and had it set to just the rear speakers and barely any sound, even at full volume. set it to barely in the front and the front door speakers, you only hear bass and the dash speakers keep cutting the treble in and out.

I think I may be in the same boat you are. My right rear does the exact same thing. But my fronts are good. I noticed that when throwing the balance to just the rear my volume is cut in half. I'm not sure if it because of the right rear speaker having an issue or what. I'll be doing some homework on this to try and come up with something.

Alright. I have this forum post book marked on my phone and I'll have it sent to my home computer. Hopefully we can solve the issues that we can fix.

      Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.

      Correct.  2019-2021 model years are serviced by a different p/n.  19420611.  Recall 2021s use 19420611.   The recall engines 2022-2024 model years are serviced with 12740076.     The difference between 19420611 and 12740076 is GM changed injector size for 2022.  The injectors are smaller on 12740076 with smaller injector bores in the cylinder heads to match the smaller injectors.  So you can't install a 19420611 in a 2022-2024, and you can't install a 12740076 in a 2019-2021.     Both engines are the replacement engine p/ns that are in the L87 recall.  So both of these are the updated engines.     Here's a version of the L87 recall with the p/ns for all the parts needed.    RCRIT-25V274-7075.pdf   Note it shows 19420611 and 12740076 with an asterisk to a footnote "Use the VIN and the GM Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) to determine which part to order if two or more part numbers are listed for the same part, as it may vary by vehicle options."

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.
