Could it have something to do with the optimizing setting? I’m going to turn mine off and find out.

Tested mine last night after updating to 13.6 (11 Pro) and everything worked as it did before so the update seems to have worked for me.  Again I'm in a 2018, but was having the same issue as those posting here and it hopefully seems to be resolved.

So i was suppose to bring my truck in yesterday morning to replace the bcm. Didnt make it because i slept in. However yesterday evening all my camera’s died and i got the blue screen. So i stopped by as i had this issue before and they couldnt do anything since it didnt do it for them. So i brought it in and asked about the bcm if its needed. Was told there were multiple faults found when they tested it. So its not just a software issue, at least with mine.

My mom has a ‘19 Blazer RS with wireless charging so i tested phones with hers and my vehicles. I used 2 IPhone 11 Pro-Max’s both with iOS 13.6, moms iPhone XR with iOS 13.6, and my Samsung work phone (Android). These were the results:

Silverado:

My 11 charged 1/10 times

Wife’s 11 charged 1/10 times

Moms XR charged 10/10 times

Android charged 10/10 times

 

On the Blazer:

My 11 charged 1/10 times

Wife’s 11 charged 1/10 times

Moms XR charged 10/10 times

Android charged 10/10 times

 

It seems to definitely be an iPhone 11 problem and not a GM problem. Even weirder was her iPhone XR worked on both trucks every time.

I would agree to that. My 11 works 7/11 times and the service advisor tried his samsung, worked 5/5.  But the tech said when they tested my bcm, their were faults. Not sure what else in the truck it controls, maybe my camera’s?

BCM controls a bunch of stuff so who knows

My charger is not controlled by the BCM. I added wireless charging capability by tapping into cigarette lighter wiring so I’m assuming BCM is not the problem.

So I just tried my wife’s iPhone 11 Pro she got last month it’s hit or miss just like mine. No difference.

Found this on the Apple forums. Lots of people have issues. I’m wondering if after the software update Apple doesn’t like some third party wireless chargers.


That is just a temporary fix. I came to the conclusion that certain 3rd party wireless chargers are causing it to disable wireless and that's why reboots fix it. It seemed to only happen on a certain charger I used at work. I ended up returning my phone and switching back to my Pixel 3.

It seems like a software issue since it works at times. Almost like Apple has a built-in feature to disable Wireless charging when it detects something it doesn't like.

Dropped the truck off today to get the bcm changed out. They tested it, no faults found and my iphone charges 10/10 times. Now i just gotta wait for a new projection display unit for the camera system.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By PunchT37 · Posted

      When I was there, most to all did not have an hour meter. They just did 5000 miles on regular vehicles and 3000 on police stuff. The modern oil change monitors should take into account engine hours, weather, etc. I don`t use the monitor on my stuff. I pull the stick, look at it, smell it, rub it between my fingers, etc. That`s my oci.   I have had many engines. Some bracket race. No problems doing things my way. I was in the mechanic business for 30 yrs or so. I still do things the old school way. Don`t care who laughs at me.   Understand, I was in the main shop. We didn`t do oil changes or tires. We had a service station for that. I don`t remember the hours they used for tractors, lawn mowers, etc. Something in my head says 250 hours.

      I don't know how far back vehicles had hour meters, be it driver accessible or diag accessible but was wondering if there was any rule of thumb your shop came up with in regards to an hour limit on engine oil regardless of the miles on the oil.    I know with construction or farm equipment its almost always based on engine hours for maintenance scheduling as no other metric really applies other than a seasonal time limit that one self imposes on items like engine oil.

      I'm not sure what to say on that mess but I will say that is an odd thing for that mechanic to speculate on as per assuming its been run out of oil a few times as the odds of that engine having instead piled up with a complete seizure would be very high if such events had actually taken place. However there is nothing saying that the oil has ever been changed although once again, what filter was on that engine as that would tell part of the story if its possible to figure out if its a factory installed filter or not. Too many items unknown and a lot of speculation, but regardless of that its one fubared mess that is mind boggling to see for a vehicle that new and its hard to imagine how it ever made it that far in life looking at the top of the engine.    His scanners, I've watched him before here and there and I'd have to say if I recall correctly that some of his scanning equipment is one or two steps up from a child's Exo Sketch 😋

      I agree. That`s a LOT of sludge for 12,000 miles. I tossed that out here since this is an OCI thread. There`s tons of people here that do not post.   I used to work on a city fleet. That includes police cars and fire trucks. Lesson is, not to only use the odo for oci. A police car has a ton of hours on the engine for the miles it shows. And, not just idling, directing traffic. They beat on these things.   Course, since it is a Kia, they were gonna use the "100,000 mile warranty" for their OCI.😉

      Manufactuer's Defect - Paint Failure - Cherry Red High Country 2021 Suburban

      By AlVeron · Posted

      CLASS ACTION SUITS?  Does anyone know if there is already a class action suit for the paint - which was to have been fixed, changed in after the 2020 GM vehicles?  Does it look like this?    Just started 3 weeks ago - No help from GM as of yet - Dealer will not assist in speaking with GM on my behalf. Confirmed it is the paint they use along with the way the put it on that causes it to fail.  Clearly a Manufacturer's Defect.
