So, the shop has had mine for 2 days and as you can expect nothing has been found as of yet. They say batteries tested good, cables pass resistance test and all cables are tight. Mechanic is periodically going by truck and remote starting. None of the symptoms have happened since jumping it off. They are saying it possibly went through reset. They are keeping it tell Tuesday and will let y’all know more then.

Wish I could’ve nothing wants to pop up now it’s a dead brick in driveway, 2020 1500 rst 4800 miles on it. Keep reading UBEC bolts not tight enough has been the issue for a lot of people with electrical issues

So I picked up my truck today after it being in the shop for 6 days. They did an update that was to fix the black screen after remote start. It seems to be fixed.They thought that the USB port was faulty because I had a problem with Apple CarPlay not working. So it was changed out and still have a problem with the Radio recognizing my phone. They plugged a test device into the port and still no recognition. I need the truck tell next Wednesday and will bring back in for them to call and work with Tech support. Mechanic believes it is the radio. It will also show phone is connected by Bluetooth and will not play media even though phone says it is. Will check back in next week.

My screen went black after remote starting a few weeks ago. Once I shut off and restarted the screen returned to normal. No other issues at the time. Haven't driven my truck in a week. Went out to start the truck and nothing. Tried to jump start it and nothing but clicking. Going to give the dealer a call in the AM.

Hopefully, I get my truck back tomorrow. Dealership told me they completed a software update and everything checks out fine. They want to keep it overnight to make sure. I hope the problem is solved.

I had my 2020 2500HD HC in for oil change and the next morning after remote start, the infotainment would not come on.  The infotainment used to come on when on ACC or engine start from the ignition, but would not any more.  I called the dealership and two "Master Technicians"  stated this is how it is supposed to work.  According to them, you have to shut the truck off and start it from the ignition to get the infotainment system to come on.  

So, after being tongue-lashed by the dealership, I decided to reset the truck by pulling the negative terminals and low and behold, the infotainment comes on without turning off the truck now.    "Master Mechanics" can't know everything, but this back-yard shade-tree mechanic go to move on all electronic issues is pull the battery.  I hope the rumored upcoming update fixes these glitches for good.

Two days after my truck was parked wouldn’t start. Boosted it and drive it to dealer. Took them three hours to figure out what you guys all told me. Updated from version 148 to V150. Seems to be working great now. My advice is if this happens to you before you let truck sit ensure you have restarted manually or will die. Thanks again everyone.

I’m not sure but it should if it’s causing this many issues. Took them 3 hours following  gms procedures before getting to the update.

      DTC P2C48 auxiliary cooling pump

      I tried tapping it.  This might sound like a dumb question, you should feel vibration or some type of noise when it turns on? Can someone please verify? Thank you all!

      first oil change - 2026 2500HD gas

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I feel better now for my own view point and actions or lack there of towards the dealership service theme reading your post and others. GM corporate is who offers the two free oil changes on the HD trucks and I bought my truck in Feb of 2025 and those oil change offers run out within 2 years I believe and I highly doubt I will be using either one of them. I had asked if I could officially give those free services to another customer ( a friend ) and they said no, its all a GM corporate thing based on the vehicle in question. What that service advisor did however was go into a little story about how such and such customer was denied engine warranty because he had done his own oil changes because then they are not documented ... you see where that goes and so an employee playing the game of scaring the customer into having the service work done there most certainly triggered my thought process. At a later date I did talk to the person who handles warranty claims at the dealership and she said to be sure to document the oil changes and keep receipts for the oil and filter ( coped the receipts from cases of Mobil oil and case of filters I bought from them ) and the vehicles VIN, the date of service, mileage etc and staple that together as a record I would give them if that was ever needed and I keep my own log book for services for each vehicle as well. Oh and about 8 months after I bought the truck the dealer starts calling me to offer a maintenance service since they haven't seen my vehicle show up on their system ... for the mere fee of 300.00 Canadian to change the oil and rotate the tires and a few other minor checks and I declined the offer, I get the call again a couple of months later for the same thing and she could tell I was not interested and she asked if they should take my name off the call list and I said yes, do that !.    By the way did you happen to keep your factory oil filter to open it up and see the surprises inside as I expect some will show up as per the odd little sliver of metal shaving and particles that the filter does trap along with bits of grey silicone sealer that come off of the inside edge of mating surfaces. I have cut open every filter so far on my truck although few miles but have changed the oil often and the second filter was vastly better with very little of anything, that first filter was the unsettling one as I expected it would be.

      I get why they do this…but man…not ideal. I only extract on inboard boat engines because the drains are buried and even then I hate it because it’s easy to leave a quart behind with that method.   They should market it as an “oil refresh” not oil change!

      I only get oil changed where I can watch. Valvoline pulls through the dipstick into a see thru glass. When done they show me the dipstick. About the only way they can mess up is using the wrong oil. But that secret wouldn’t stay secret long. Honda uses TQ wrenches on everything. You can watch through a plate glass window. Discount tires does that with tires. Trust but verify.

      I would not argue that with you. It would be pointless to argue against the truth and you speak the truth.    My question and in fact the entire point of this thread is an exploration into the levers of wear which happens no matter how well we maintain our powertrains.    Some of these levers we exert a good deal of influence over which can and do result is lower wear, longer powertrain life. Some others we are sort of stuck with.    An engine is typically done when the ring to bore seal no longer is able to do the job effectively. Normally the first thing to go in a engine otherwise well maintained and adult driven is this seal.    Looking into the means, methods, products and attitudes that influence the rate of wear seems a worthwhile inquiry to me.
