I had the same issue on my 2019 Chevy Colorado and now my 2020 Sierra. Once I put the radio system on remote updates and the vehicle updated all was good.

I haven't had an issue with apple car play.  Are you using a true apple cord or using an aftermarket one?  I know in the past when using an aftermarket cord, I had issues with my laptop, etc.

I agree... I had a 17,18 and now a 19. Never a problem with Apple Car Play. Normally its a cheap cord. Tom

Thanks for the response. I thought the same way, but even with the Apple cord, it’s still an issue.

I just picked up a new 2020 Silverado 2 weeks ago. At random times during my drive, when connected to CarPlay, my radio will go black, music turns off, and the radio resets. Took it to the dealer and they can’t seem to figure out the problem. Anyone ever run into this problem?

Same thing here. 2020 custom crew cab.  Exactly like you stated.  Goes black and sometimes after a few minutes it all comes back.

Yup, I have a custom crew cab 2020. GM replaced the radio, I went and bought a new phone cord, it’s been fine ever since

Glad to hear that man.

 

Any advice for me when I take to the dealership?  I’d like to think it will be pretty straight forward but sometimes it isn’t.

Every time I’ve had a problem with car play it’s been because the cable was going bad. Would still charge phone but was having trouble sending data for some reason replaced cable and problem would go away.

mine works fine on my 2020 when plugged in by dash, but not if use plug inside console. Is the console one a charge only??

My 2019 does it from both.

Yeah, mines a 2020, and when I’m plugged in with USB cord, at random times the music will stop playing, and then a couple seconds later the screen goes black and then shuts off and resets itself. GM replaced the radio and it still does it. Replaced the cord too, and contacted Apple for support but nothing solves this issue

I've had a couple little hiccups with my AppleCar Pay in my 2020 1500. I recently switched from a Galaxy Note 10+ and never had any issues. But with my iPhone 11 Pro Max once it kicked me out completely in the middle of my drive like I disconnected the cable but I hadn't. Also quite often I use Pandora to listen to music and I have a premium subscription to skip songs and what not. Sometimes it won't let me skip the song via the steering wheel control, if I unplug it then plug it back it, it starts to work. Also sometimes if I pause the song and then hit play again, it starts playing but no audio comes out,. But if I re-pause it then hit play again it starts playing the audio. And yes I'm using the USB-C to lightning port cable that came in my iPhone box. Once again, never had any of these issues with Android Auto with my Note 10+.

The only issue I seem to be having is when I connect my iPhone, have it playing on shuffle in Apple Music and go to skip to the next song. I keep getting a message that the "Action Unavailable While Indexing" in the screen in the middle of the instrument cluster. Anyone else getting this?

My 2019 Chevy Silverado has done it since the day I drove it off of the lot, NOT a cord issue, used original apple and aftermarket, all the same, now the radio freezes up, won't turn off or allow the volume to be adjusted, and sometimes keeps staying on even after the vehicle is turned off.  Been back to the dealer 4 times, but they can "recreate" the problem.

      Tire psi

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I just can't think of the exact term GM uses for that higher gvw package without looking at the website but basically sort of a trailering package and I imagine it may also have been created to skirt around the licensing fee differences between a3/4 and 1 ton that apply in some states although ironically I believe in some states its the reverse that a 1 ton is the cheaper truck to license over a 3/4 ton. It makes no difference here in Alberta but oddly enough a 1 ton through my insurance company is a bit cheaper to insure over a 3/4 ton as its based on the insurance statistics they generate.    For sure when ever you do have the chance to weigh your truck and to be fair, try to have the fuel tank full or nearly so rather than give yourself a false sense of the truck being lighter by having an almost empty tank.    In my other comment I was mentioning stock sized tires and partly in case someone was reading this and thinking they could lower their pressure down to what your aftermarket tires are able to do with your empty truck as that is a vastly different picture in the leeway you have to play with for running minimum pressures while remaining safe. I will say also that its easy to see from reactions of truck owners that may have been more used to owning a half ton in the past or a car and be it on a forum like this or in person etc that they get so wrapped up in that placard pressure sticker that they can't get their head wrapped around the fact that an HD truck due to how much it can carry can also vary the tire pressures drastically lower than those pressures ( typically more so for the rear axle on stock sized tires ) when empty vs some car that isn't made to carry much so the tire pressures can't be lowered since it needs almost that much pressure just to carry the empty car.    If I ever do find myself in the states with this truck, I will only be too happy to switch it over to the US measuring system as then I will understand all the dash readings. The only thing that is off for me slightly with US measurements is US miles per gallon as I grew up with the Imperial gallon and to this day up here anyway speak in Imperial miles per gallon ( I don't do that on this forum though as that would confuse everyone for no good reason ).

      Yes that's right, it's the upgrade that includes the overload spring and all that stuff.   Someday when I'm empty and going by a scale I'm going to stop in and get some weight readings.   Exactly  you should have the ability to change individual settings, in in Canada so I'm driving with kph but then I'm stuck with kpa when I want psi lol

      You must have that upgraded gvw package which is only available or at least was in 2025 with the diesel engine for the 3/4 ton and that gave the truck physically the larger 12.0 ring gear rear diff and the 3500 rear spring pack. There is a difference in what the diff housing looks like externally as one tell tale and also your truck should have the upper overload spring pack and the frame pads that the pack goes up against.    The pressure the tpms system kicks the alarm in on a stock setting truck, that is a good question and was just from what I recall but I doubt I made any notes on it as I knew for the rear that it was not at all what I was after regardless either. Being that you have a diesel and if running on stock tires the minimum pressure on an empty truck seems to be around 50 psi from hearing of those that have weighted the front axle but the rear axle is very similar in weight to a gas truck and again a near empty truck on the rear could go down to 35 pounds at minimum. However the weigh scale is the proper way to know for sure as a guide.    As to changing the readings on the dash from metric to the US measuring system, oh yes that is done easily but what I was attempting to explain was that I can't pick and choose items I want to have in US and those I still want in the metric system at the same time as its either all or none. For example lets say you drove into Canada and switched your dash over to metric so your speedometer read in km an hour, well then your reading kilopascals on your tpms readout and your wife looks over and says what the hell is that saying in the tpms screen and you say "darned if I know, I think its Chinese" !

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      This is partly why I decided to have switched over to Amsoil SS as a way of hopefully preventing the buildup of the sludge/carbon on the pistons and clogging of the oil control rings and the carbon that would cause the compression rings to stick in their grooves as well as stay cleaner up top of the heads in the valve train in the first place, an oil that has tested better by third party testing over typical shelf oil and also doing my best to run relatively short OCI. However in saying that I don't think there is any way to easily prove the oil I was using prior allowed for a buildup at the OCI I was doing, nor in the other direction to make claims the Amsoil is keeping everything clean either. There really isn't a window into the engine is there to know anything for certain even if oil samples were taken for example that showed still healthy oil being dropped out of the oil pan other than engine tear downs that extensive and expensive testing of oils does to actually visually see what is really going on inside the engine. I wish there was some easy method of seeing what is going on but I don't happen to be aware of that if there is.

      My truck is a ¾ ton but my placard also says 80 for the rear tires, I think I might have the upgraded suspension to the 3500 series maybe.   I put my air down to 60 and the light was still on, and there was no way I was putting over 60 psi in the rear empty and not towing because I knew the actual number Toyo gave me and I didn't wanna ruin the center of my tires!   And you actually can change it in the settings from metric or is and it will show kph or mph then when you go into your tire settings it will be either psi or kpa, but it would be nice to just change it directly on the tire psi page
