Purchased a 2021 Sierra SLT diesel on 6/1 and started it on the morning of 6/3 with remote start and the following happened. The infotainment screen was black no noise from radio, USB ports did not charge phone and turn signal does not make clicking noise. Has anyone had this happen do them.

I had the USB ports and SD card reader stop working in the center console in my 21 AT4.  This was after 3 days of owning.  The connector had come undone behind the dash.  Probably wasn't secure from the factory.

 

You could check all your fuses and make sure that isn't the problem.  When I had my 2020 TB it died in the parking lot at my business and almost all of the fuses were loose.  after pressing them all tight into their sockets the truck was fine.  dealer couldn't find any thing wrong.  they also checked the ubec bolts but they were good too.  ran fine for 6 months after that....

I'm dealing with a similar issue right now (2017 LT Z/71. Changed out a dead battery and later that day screen went black and no blinker sound. I checked later that evening and all was magically working again but the next morning black screen with no audio the hour drive to work. I pulled the radio fuse #18 (passenger side) put back in and all good again, however the next day again black screen. Today I pulled the neg on battery, turned headlight switch on (to drain capacitors) and left unhooked for about 20 minutes. Hooked the battery back up turned key on let computer reset then started and let run for 5 minutes (it gave me the roll drivers window down and back up message on the DIC which resets something. Anyway everything works for now... We'll see if it lasts.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      Holy smokes. Clearly not a deal on that truck. I just mean in general, matte or painted trim is becoming more normative than chrome, but I know the Black Optics packages on various vehicles are being sold as uplevel trims. They look really good, but sheesh. It's just paint and plastic.

      I Wouldn't Know Where to Begin    Oh I know where I would begin but I'm just one of over eight billion people on this rock. Eight billion versions of where the goal post is. How large it should be. How far to kick from. What ball is the right ball. Elevation. Age.....are you getting the point? It isn't about disagreeing with one individual. It's about agreeing only with one individual. One's self.   Agreement comes when multiple people hold the same point already. THAT is the goal of an education. Building the Social Contract. That thing that allows us to all read this sentence. We've agreed on the alphabet and how to arrange those letters into words we agree upon whose meanings hold true for everyone entering into that contract. Those words arranged into a sentence form an idea and several sentences strung together in a paragraph convey an argument for or against or inform the reader of a state, condition or perhaps reveal a things nature. Paint a word picture. Make oneself known.    This contract is not limited to words although they are often explained by words. Things like numbers and their usefulness. Physics, Chemistry, Medicine, Music, Art and so on.    The frequency of middle C (C4) is 261.63 Hz is a first principle. We build on that to make music we all can enjoy even if we all can not compose or play. You don't have to master it to make it enjoyable and useful.    So why is the Beginning so difficult? Why is agreement so elusive?   Everyone "Signs" the contract (when receiving that education in obtaining it)  but fewer and fewer in this world have any intention of living by that contract. They find exploiting that contract more advantageous. Disruption. With intent. Without intent. In Ignorance. In your face. With a double dog dare you. With a hold my beer. In resistance to that contract and in spite how it looks on us. It permeates the very air we breath.    In this way the contract is subject to advantage. Abide by it when it serves you, disregard it when it doesn't. Unpredictable and self-serving. Corrosive.....Toxic........   It says a lot about a persons character to disregard the contract, the truth, first principles. None of it good.        ********************************************************   https://medicine.yale.edu/news-article/character-vs-personality-who-we-are-and-who-we-aspire-to-be/   Just an interesting article.

      It costs $5,250 for the Yukon Nightfall option (black wheels, emblems and illuminated black GMC grill badge). What a "deal".

      Android auto could not connect

      I keep getting the above error message on my 25 Sierra.  If I reset the infotainment unit (via the phone hang up button) it will work again for a day or 2.   But I dont want to do have to reset  all the time. Works fine in my 2023 Corvette. On both vehicles I connect wirelessly.   I have a Google Pixel 10 Pro XL, phone is up to date.  Any Ideas.  See attached

      LOL, its thrown a few people because this item is being talked about in the gas part of the HD forum. Probably wouldn't be a bad idea to put a very brief wording in your profile with the year/GM or Chev/2500 or 3500/ and yes the 6.6 Duramax. When I joined this forum I could see the confusion ensuing for my own truck unless I had it listed with my chosen name handle unless one has a few vehicles that apply to a GM forum as that becomes confusing as well. Anyway its all good, makes for a little forum excitement 😉
