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

    • Why don't I have a good scanner? I've always wanted one when I've needed one.   My latest reading says I don't need to do a relearn on the ckp sensor on a 1995 with OBD 1.5. The relearn is prescribed for the later-model 1995's which shipped with actual OBD II when GM completed the transition in prep for the 1996 MY. I need to confirm that. Did you know forums are disappearing? Knuckleheads on Facebook... it's not the same. It's just not.   So, scanners. Again, shooting myself in the foot for having eBayed my Snap On MT2500 "brick" with all the adapters. Not that I couldn't buy another but those are getting quite old, and mine wasn't new enough to work on 2000's vehicles.   Damn it (as I'm scanning my email between paragraphs here). Did you know there's a 2000 Jimmy 2-door on BaT that's ending this morning? It's local. I want it. 14k miles. Absolutely beautiful.   Back to scanners. MT2500's are old. Solus, now that could be a contender. There's a ~2008 Verus with a system error that's basically new in box for cheap. Hmm...I'm not sure about a scanner that runs an archaic version of windows (95 or CE, I can't tell).   I want the ability to reset and rotate TPMS, test individual modules, bleed ABS, electronic parking brake controls for servicing brakes, relearn procedures and other bidirectional controls.   Snap On does an MT2600. It's a new model as of last year, marketed as their "entry" scanner. Entry? Only where $1900 gets you through the doorway plus, I'm guessing, $1000/year if you wish to keep it current. So goes scan tools actually designed for production environments. Want decent products with excellent support, you pay for it.   Everyone is raving about Autels and TopDons and Foxconns and all these newer brands that are selling the $500 "prosumer" scanners for backyard hacks like me. They're tempting...honestly. Updates are cheaper, base prices are remarkably cheaper... And you get to deal with bugs and translation whoopsies and, well, just don't use it on anything expensive, OK? Having a dealer replace an ECU because it needs to be re-imaged after an adventure in scanning is no joke. But I think most people are getting by OK with these units.   eBay on a scratch-and-sniff pro-model oldie, a shiny new TopDon, or???   God dang it, I can't stop looking at this Jimmy. I'm ready! I'll Bring The TRailer! It's beautiful.
    • I removed the OE running boards.  It looked so much better.  I wish I took them off a long time ago.     I had to put something back on for my wife.  I wanted Westin Sure Grip Running Boards but they are very pricey, like $600 plus.  I was going to go with the Ionic 41's like I had on the 2019 Silverado but went with Westin Outlaw Drop Steps instead, about $200 cheaper.  They are sturdy and functional but not super crazy about the look, but it works.  
    • It's all a crock of 💩
    • I had a Gen5DIY DRL relocate harness from a 2022 1500 that I saved. I had Gen5DIY modify the harness for my 2024 Silverado 2500. Plug n Play, worked perfectly.    Here's a video I made for the 2022 1500 truck. The install is more or less the same on a 2500.    The harness relocates the DRL tot he top amber turn signal on my 2500.     
    • Can ask that about a lot of places.   Holiday sells 91 for $1 over 87 octane. BP 93 is 80 cents. Amoco 93 is 80 cents Kwik Trips is $1.20 for 92 or whatever they have and $1 for the 91.   I know that this is not exactly same as what you are saying with the premium to premium debate of those two stations but why is there such a difference. Top Tier this and that, it's all BS. All the fuel comes from the same damn refinery, so give me a break.
