I have the same issue. Seems very strange that you need to reset every time you start up. I hope there is just a glitch..........

I hate that you have to always turn the radio back on too after turning truck off. When you remote start the truck it always blows cold air full blast! have had my truck only days and really regret getting it now.

Yea, the reset worked for me too.  I did both the audio and truck settings (yea, had to reconfigure door locks, windows, etc.) just for grins.  Figure GM flashes a custom set of Infotainment/audio settings at the factory but probably from a different firmware image or something.  I went from a 25 year old truck to this 2021, so despite being in IT, I'm still learning that my new truck is actually a computer that happens to have an engine.  😉

Guys, can you talk more about the reset? What did you do and how long now has it kept the EQ settings?

So same issue with my 2021 Silverado 2500HD LT

2 weeks old and it would not save the settings, radio wouldn't come on when truck was started.

Did the complete reset this morning.

As for now the settings I set this morning have worked all day and the radio is on when I start the truck.

Go to settings and reset system, I had 2 options ( don't recall what they said) but I reset both.

Had to enter phone info etc and reprogram the favorite stations but it's worth it as long as it is solved.

Will report back if it fails.

Thanks for the info about reset.

I’m having the same issues in my 2021 Silverado LT. the equalizer resets to zero, and the volume goes way loud when starting the truck. This is highly annoying!  

Do a system reset in settings, it worked for me and a few others on here.

Most every time I start up my truck I have to reset my Equalizer settings. It goes back to the default settings. 0 across the board. Does anyone else have this problem?

Go into settings and scroll till you see Reset I don't recall exactly where but its there.

There will be 2 options , I did the reset for both.

You then have to program the radio again, phone stations etc..

Mine has been fine since I did it 2 weeks ago.

Good luck

I am new here, but I created an account because I was having the same Equalizer issues, where it would reset to all 0s once the vehicle turned off. I have a 2021 GMC Sierra, and the way that I got it to stop doing that was to go into the vehicle settings and tap the audio tab. from there you can set the equalizer setting to what you want. It was stopped resetting since.

      2021 Silverado 2.7L – N232395310 – Can someone with GM dealer access check my VIN?

      By HeronLeal · Posted

      Just want to make sure it is covered by Special Coverage N232395310 Evaporative Emission Purge Pump 2021 Silverado 1500 Custom 2.7L L3B ~100k miles I'm getting DTCs P146B and P146F. VIN 3GCPWBEK2MGxxxxxx   I spoke to a person that works at GM and he said it is not covered after checking my VIN.   Is there anyone here who currently works for a GM/Chevrolet dealership and has access to GM Global Warranty Management / Investigate Vehicle History who could explain how the VIN eligibility is determined?   thank you

      Tire psi

      By jgaudet99 · Posted

      Thanks for all that information, I might purchase one and see if it will work for me, if not they may let me return it! Yes for sure the tires are definitely within limit for my truck empty, and when I do tow I'll definitely make sure to raise the rear psi for the amount of weight that's going to be on it.

      Yes exactly, more and more these days people/companies are afraid of liability issues so its easier just to say no rather than risk putting their neck on the line.    I will say with the Autel unit or when I used it last year on my truck, it wasn't like I could choose the 2025 model year or even the 2024 model year as that option was not there to manipulate the placard pressures but had to go back to 2023 or there abouts and then it showed up as an option, odd but that was how the software was then and I can't say one way or the other now as they throw out updates every so often. I still would talk to your tire dealer though to start with and they may do it for nothing but also they may have a comment on a better unit to purchase. All I know is that one of the large tire shops in my area happens to use these Autel units for their use and set them up to use the wifi and all of that jazz for constant updating because each tire tech has one handed to them by the shop but I just plugged it into my laptop to update it and yes if one is bought it has to be registered so you can get the link to do updates and then the unit has to be updated before its even used. I am not at all techy so it took me a bit but anyway just a heads up for anything you buy, most likely it will need to be connected to a computer to access the internet to have it updated to the latest software version before you can put it to use.   If your truck is near empty, those tire pressures you listed are a very safe upper range pressures to carry the weight, both the front and rear as I know they could be run lower yet with an empty truck. And if its a trailer and not some motorcycle your going to strap onto the front of your truck on a rack, you shouldn't have a need to inflate your front tires if your at 55 front already, its the rear ones that would need more air if you have much hitch weight.

      Thank you, I'll check that Autel scanner out and see if it will work for me! Ya I can see GM's point of view if they lower the psi set value for someone and the person sell's the truck and the new owner puts the factory tires back on then their could be liability issues cause the psi warning light wasn't coming on when the tires were under inflated for towing their load and then it might be able to be traced back to GM lowering it.

      I had a similar but different response when I talked to the service manager where I bought my truck in that he said GM corporate won't allow them to lower the placard pressure setting as they would get their hand slapped but that of course they have the ability to make that change. His suggestion was simply go to a tire dealer or third party shop that is willing to reset the pressures lower. However I chose to buy a tpms tool and partly based off of this very forum as it had been proven to work on the 2024 model ( Global B system ) and while I could have paid lots for a full two way diag tool, I didn't want to spend that much and bought the recommended Autel TS 508 and it will reprogram the 2025 model and assume it should do the 2026 as well. However the tool is rather proprietary to reprogramming Autel tpms sensors so that is a function I will never use, where as a real two way scanner would have many uses but also have yearly subscriptions etc where this 508 is free updates for as long as they put updates out for the unit. In any event it worked to lower the placard pressures and I often use it to adjust my actual tire pressures although will check with a mechanical gauge as well sometimes just to make sure that tires tpms sensor isn't lying to me.    My suggestion is either buy a tool that you know will work to adjust the system or start out by getting the tire shop you bought your tires from to reset your truck and if after that you still want a unit to do it yourself, get one at that point.
