I just bought my truck last week and I am having the same issue.  Did you get yours fixed?  What was the solution?  I am also having a dead battery if I let it sit for 2 days did you have that issue?

Any update on this from any of you about the solution? My 2020 Silverado under 4K miles just started doing this today. If I remote start the screen will stay black but if I just use regular push to start it comes on.... calling dealer tomorrow to see if they know of it. Also mine says no update

Will do.  I see several people saying it’s a battery issue. Hope that’s all it is

I have to park the vehicle, turn it off, and then re-start using the vehicles start button to bring the display back on. Anybody else having this issue?

About 1100 some odd miles on mine now and have not had this issue when remote starting.(knock on wood)  I am having almost every time I get in though where it is asking me to confirm which user profile.

My 2020 2500HD with 500 miles is in the shop today with the blank screen on remote start, dead batteries yesterday and several other wired things. Like gauge clusters bouncing and info screen behind steering wheel coming on after truck was turned off. Will let y’all know what this shop says.

Having read these complaints all summer, though not really experiencing anything myself yet, I just thought of an issue we went through with a ford. I just went out an looked and it looks like both the engine ground and battery ground attached at the firewall, may be attached to a painted surface. We had a new 2011 fiesta and after a couple months at start up, the gauges would go nuts and it wouldn't start. Left her stranded a few times. Having dealt with with weird guage activity with an earlier grand cherokee, I figured it would probably be battery related. I went online and found ignition switch recalls and tech bulletins on the fiesta line for the instrument panel acting up and potential dash fires. The tech bulletin that seemed to cure everything, said to scrape away the excessive paint at the engine bay ground attachment points. I took a look and ours were almost completely painted over. Scraped them off and never had another tissue. Taking a look at mine, without disconnecting yet, the actual screws don't look to be painted, but obviously the surface of the firewall they but against is. I have a custom, so fewer electronics to boot up at start up, so maybe that's why I haven't seen a problem yet. I do plan on adding upfitter switches and some other stuff soon and plan to disconnect the ground straps and clean off the surfaces to prevent problems. I also have a short cmutr, so I'm careful about letting it run a little longer after starting to keep the battery topped off. All the control modules new vehicles have, use a lot of juice when booting up, aside from the starter. And then there's the weird, hit the locks again, then hold the remote start button for 5 seconds for the vehicle to fire and fan blowing full blast, using up additional juice at start up.

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Tyler Gibbs · Posted

      The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.

      "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
