Just drove my 2021 Custom Trail Boss off the lot two days ago and this issue (equalizer reverting back to 0) was the first thing I noticed. I thought I had to save stations in order to save EQ settings, but nope... settings/levels still reverted back to 0.🤔

 

I will definitely try the reset in about 10 seconds...

I have a Chevy Colorado bought it 2 months ago and I am having the same problem it's actually at the dealer right now for that problem I believe it is a software problem I am curious what  the actual cause for this issue

I did the hard reset in April a week after I bought the truck. 
Its now almost October and have not had to touch the settings since. 
It works just do it.

Probably a software configuration bug on the firmware they loaded on these radios from the factory. As Nhcampbells noted, the reset fixes the problem. I kind of forgot about the issue since it hasn't come up since I reset my radio.

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.

These are the steps I followed to reset the radio in my truck:

1) Browse the radio menu's to Settings > System > Return to Factory Settings

2) Select Reset Vehicle Settings

3) Wait to reset

4) Select Erase Settings and Personal Data

5) Profit

 

I reset my radio on 4/16/21 and I haven't had a problem since.

It worked!

I have a 2021 trail boss and having the same issue. I’m not plugging a phone in but I don’t use the radio only Bluetooth. Always on my phone and every time I get in the truck the equalizer is reset to 0s. It has only kept my settings 2-3 times when my truck was off for less than 5 minutes. Other than that it resets every time.

 

 If anyone has heard of a fix, or has any luck with dealership please post. 
 

I’m almost thinking about adding a powered sub and powered component tweeters to lift the highs and lows when the equalizer is at 0 unless someone knows how to fix the issue.

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. Basically cleared all the settings. Settings - system- factory reset

Good luck

    • Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆
    • I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death. 
    • In the 80's 90's I'd run Honda's 7,500 miles between changes using Red Line HP 5W20 and do it for hundreds of thousands of miles with issues. Back in the day it was an SAE 20 with the HTHS of a SAE 30 and SN add load. It was also very polar. Oxidation VOA was over 120. Besides those motors were SPFI and lean burn tech. I could have likely run it longer but never did.    We had a Toyota bought new I ran on Pennzoil's latest and greatest synthetic of the day with "Penthane". A made up word for a very low dose of PAO. Tried 7,500 mile OCI's in that Group III/VI chemistry and the rings tapped out at 90K. Rocker box wasn't as bad as the one Punch put up but it wasn't good either. Also a SPFI motor.    I'm around 3,750 across the board on these GDI monsters and the oil it tapped out by then usually on TBN/TAN crossover and color. Red Line HP Euro.    The AMSOIL SS brochures tell you to follow the OEM values for the service class but that it can be run up to 25K if monitored. I can't imagine what motor could go that distance and not tap out. I've never owned one.    Yes, I know. Lot's of people do. I'm just not going to be one of them. 
    • I knew a guy in the early 80's that bought a new Monte Carlo and ran it a 100,000 miles without ever changing the filter or the oil. Just kept adding. It looked like that inside.     
    • Good evening. I was lucky enough to get passed down to me a 2007 GMC LBZ that was my great uncle's. While the underside and rockers are more or less gone I feel like with time I can restore it to working order since it only has 110,000 miles and he put nearly every option he could get without getting the new body style since he did not trust DEF. So far I have done everything I can think of but when I put the key into the ignition nothing happens. I put 2 brand new batteries in it. Cleaned the terminals. Check all the fuses and relays and they all pass with my multimeter. I know I'm missing something that I just cant think of. The only odd thing is the OBD2 port works which makes me think its not the mega fuse. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
