No sound from radio

I have a 2015 GMC  Sierra - the "no sound" problem started a couple of years ago, but it's gotten worse and worse to the point that it's about every other time I start the truck. It's not just the radio, there is no seatbelt warning sound, no turn signal sound - nothing. I'm convinced the problem is a computer problem. I also installed a remote battery disconnect to address the problem that intermittently the truck thinks it is overheated, when it's not. The problem is not the sensor on the engine, the fix is to disconnect the battery and wait 30 seconds to reset the computer.  I've fixed low alternator voltage by resetting the computer. It's sad to see that GM can't get a fix in 8 year models.

2015 was a completely different electrical system than the 1500's trucks that are 22.5 and newer ('24 and newer for HD's)

I was having the no audio issue pretty regularly once my 30 day on star data subscription expired. I suspected something going on during startup with communication timing out etc due to lack of internet. I did the following:

1) deleted my gmail and MyChevrolet accounts on the truck to avoid unnecessary comm attempts at startup. 
2) disconnected my home WiFi. 
3) I have been letting the  radio go through its quirky initialization process before putting the truck in gear. It sometimes comes on quickly but other times it takes 20-30 sec. 
I have not had an issue now in about a month. I guess I should divide and conquer to pinpoint but I’m content now since it’s behaving lol

Any updates or fixes from GM? New ‘24 LTZ is doing this on a 3 week old truck.

 

im curious if I should expect both seat vibrations and beeps with park assist. I currently get one beep if I’m lucky. Thinking there’s an issue there too

With car in park press and hold the end call button for about 15 seconds until your info screen restarts then let off the and call button. Your information screen will restart and this should work. Works for our 2023 GMC Sierra

Hello, I did some research online and found there seems to be an issue with android auto or Apple carplay. If you turn off the connection to that in the vehicle everything seems to be working again. I don't know if everyone is the same issue but it has worked for me for over 2 months now. I hope they find if fix for it soon because I miss my android auto.

I'm late to this party but I wanted to add my GMC Denali Sierra to this list. I have experienced the no sound issue with my new $86,000 truck on several occasions (happens about every six engine starts). My truck is presently living at my dealership where I have taken it in for this problem three previous times. Every time they have told me they have repaired the no sound issue and it is working fine. The no sound issue has always returned. In fact the last time that I picked it up at the dealership after the issues was repaired, I started the truck to leave and there was no sound. Also I constantly get the dashboard "Service Driver Assist" message about every five times I start the engine. This issue has also brought my truck into the dealership on four occasions. The last time it was in for repair the service department told me the factory was working on a repair for this issue but presently they could not repair it. My truck has 3100 miles and I'll be starting the Lemon Law process very soon.

      Bent valve in 2025 GMC Canyon Denali - Requires engine swap at 14K miles

      By newdude · Posted

      No ETA is available for that engine at the moment in the GM system.   I would start at the dealer.  Try and talk to the parts manager or service manager and see if they can start a CX Connect case and get an ETA from GM on when engines may be available.  If they just check Parts Workbench and say "no eta", they aren't trying hard enough.  They need to do a CX Connect and chat with DPAC to find the ETA.

      MPG at 600 miles

      I would have to read back to get a better picture in my mind of some of the other comments and what they were using for a driving scenario they based the fuel mileage off of. That is why the fuel mileage conversation is extremely difficult to make fair comparisons from. If I was to be living in town and only driving around town, light to light and some longer stretches that doesn't have a light every block, and the usual stop at a grocery store and the bank and so on and so forth, my fuel mileage even during the summer time would be so bad with my truck I don't even want to know how bad it would be !. Then add in winter time and idling to warm it up to clear the windows and driving through snowy streets etc, large heavy trucks with gas engines have NEVER been worth crap for fuel mileage and why some little pot licker of a car with wheelbarrow tires and a 1300 cc four cylinder non turbo engine was the ticket to using a mere fraction of the fuel over a full size pickup.    By the way my truck has the 34" tires as its a HC but not the BFG KO3 tires ( that was an option for my truck but the sales guy couldn't figure out what the tires actually were so that never got on the order until it was too late to change the truck order ). So what fuel mileage your getting actually sounds good for "town driving" and with my truck when I go to town the fuel mileage keeps increasing as I get closer to town because it takes quite a while to get the driveline oils warmed up ( and why it always shows better fuel mileage on the return trip from town because its already warmed up ) but once I am in town that fuel mileage average just keeps dropping the more I mess around town and then has to recover back to something reasonable again by the time I get home for an over all average.    I'd be curious what your sticker says for the factory weight of your truck, mine is close around that 7700 lb due to the options it has. But anyway the long and short is, vehicle weight, higher rolling resistance heavy tires and a hefty driveline and a relatively large gas engine make for crap fuel mileage in stop and go scenarios, all one can do is drive it easy off the line at each stop and as my dad had said over the years, drive like a raw egg is under your foot and that's the best one can do. Years back with a carbed engine and if the carb was getting a bit out of tune etc as would the ignition system, the fuel mileage on pickups with larger engines was just awful compared to what your getting. We pay the fuel price penalty for driving HD trucks over some little vehicle, that is the reality.

      We had two Toyota’s with that engine in the mid 80s. We had 50 gallon fuel tanks, a toolbox full of tools, an air compressor and assorted parts for our equipment. We beat those up and down pipeline ROWs until we started buying diesel trucks. Then they became parts runners and first vehicles for our teenagers first cars. Our shop Forman wrecked them both two years apart when we hired him out of high school as an apprentice. Good thing he’s an excellent mechanic. It took awhile before he could be called a good driver.
