Still no response from GM Support. 

 

So i finally had my Autel with me when it happened again. 

P0171 (lean on bank 1)

P219A (Fuel trim balance)

U0100 (Lost communication with ECM)

U0102 (Lost communication with Transfer case)

U0131 (Lost communication with Power steering module)

U0140 (Lost communication with BCM)

U0151 (Lost communication withInflatable restraint sensing and Diag module

B1325:03 (control module power circuit voltage)

U18AF  (lost communication with telematics)

 

All happened at the same time, while trying to remote start.

 

Does anyone know what these could be?

when you get that many codes at start up, it is usually a weak battery 

I ran to Autozone over the weekend and had the battery tested, the CCA was "good" but the battery percent was at 47%. 

I went home, put it on a charger (good for AGM) and once it got to a full charge, ran back and the battery was at 55%, assuming after 6 years the battery is going bad. Need to call the dealer and see if my battery warranty i purchased when i got the truck is going to be hell to get covered.

I'd guarantee the "battery warranty" you have will want a failed or back to back failed test results to cover a replacement.  Most likely with the GM dealer test equipment, the GR8 or DCBS GM battery testers that run a full diagnostics on the battery.

More than likely. I call multiple times to multiple dealers and apparently most of the service adviser are out due to being sick. 

 

Do you think if i can remove it from the truck and bring it in or do i need to leave it in the truck? I would like to remove it so they do not scratch my truck while changing it.

 

i can reset the battery with my Autel.

I know for battery issues under GM warranty, dealer wants the vehicle with the battery in it.  Same for replacement batteries if the dealer installed it.  

 

Over the counter purchases you'd bring them the battery.

Battery warranty on factory installed that came with the truck when new is 3yrs or 36,000 miles. Now if you bought a new battery from GM say a 48 month battery then the warranty starts when the battery was installed. So if it's a battery that was in the truck when you bought it new in 2019 then it's out of warranty.

Sorry but that should be incorrect and i am waiting for a call back, when i purchased the vehicle (at my second uncles dealer), i purchased an extended warranty just for the battery for an extra $100 that will be for the life of the vehicle (as long as its still in my name/i bring it in).

 

I should of verified the full scope of this warranty prior to purchase. I may have to even pull the paper work and bring it to the dealer to get it covered.

You never said you purchased a warranty just for the battery now things are different warranty related. It should be covered and the battery must be in the truck when brought in as newdude said. If you bring just the battery in they don't know where that battery came from it could have came from another vehicle for all they know.

Got warranty info, https://foreverdealers.com/claims-terms/

 

Need to have it tested by the dealer and i can purchase on the same day (dates on test and receipt need to be the same). Will have it tested/ buy the new battery on Saturday. Will need to bring the Autel to program the new battery. 

 

The new battery will be $254+tax and the warranty cover up to $250. so this new battery will cost me ~$30(if they honor the warranty).

Good to hear.

    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
    • Paid $2.72 for E85 today.
    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
