I had a Buick do this a few years ago and a NEW battery had a dead cell. Just under 9.5 volts. Drove the ECM/TCM/BCM batty.

Try changing the top piece above the battery that has the top terminals, I accidentally connected the jumper cables in wrong spot on my alternator and it fried that piece lucky I had a spare. Had all type of codes and no power steering, no Ac, Cluster was flashing turning off and on, window didn’t roll down either 😂 I thought I really messed it up but it was a easy fix swapped the battery and that top piece. I’ll see if I have the pictures of it. Each one of them top terminals are like fuses they can burn out and the truck won’t work depending which terminal is burnt. Mine happened to be the one that controlled everything

I did change it out. I looked out the old one and had no sings of it being burnt. Issue still not fixed. I turn truck on and cluster looks like its playing games with me from guages fluctuating to all kinds of lights flashing.

Got battery checked at both Autozone and Oreillys and they said its good. I put a voltmeter on it and its 12.6 when truck has been sitting and jumps up above 14 when running.

Get the volt meter and check each of the studs each stud is like a different fuse, cant tell if it’s burnt unless you check with a volt meter.

Dammit bro, not sure what that could be then. That’s a lot of codes wish I could help more but might have to find somebody with a good scanner to check it. I have a friend that gots a nice snap on scanner that I take mine too, I’ll ask him if he’s ever seen that before.

Did you check it under load like while starting? I'm still thinking. 😉

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      My post above is the direct reason for my outsized interest in keeping what I have for as long as possible. My memory isn't as short as some.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      I don't think so. 😏 Cars? Our experience will diverge there as well. I was buying cars with 200K (1970's) when I started and quite a few were pretty solid cars. (My early stuff was 1964 to 1968)  Some stinkers but not the dismal picture painted above. Now that said, yes, a dealer wouldn't talk to you if your car had more than 60K on the clock and lot cars were 60K or less except the back row where 100-120K was the auction bought for dirt for us poor losers. Kids in my county were not allowed to wear long pants if they couldn't rebuild and repair every part of that beast.    I will agree that many parts are now better. Alternators and charging systems are an envy. But I replaced few water pumps or power steering pumps then. Rebuilt carburetors but replaced few. Mufflers are another place of OEM improvement. Stainless? We didn't have no stink'n stainless.    As long as humans are in charge of governance this $$$$ situation will not improve.    The purchasing power of a dollar in 1955 is significantly higher than in 2025, meaning that a dollar could buy more goods and services in 1955 compared to 2025 due to inflation over the years. For example, what you could buy for $1 in 1955 would require approximately $10.50 in 2025.  Calculator.net inflationtool.com   Comparison of Purchasing Power: 1955 vs 2025 The purchasing power of a dollar has changed significantly from 1955 to 2025 due to inflation. Below is a breakdown of how much more money is needed in 2025 to match the buying power of a dollar in 1955. Purchasing Power Overview Year Equivalent Value of $1 in 1955 1955 $1.00 2025 $10.50 Key Points Inflation Impact: The value of money decreases over time due to inflation, meaning that the same amount of money buys fewer goods and services in the future. Example of Inflation: What could be purchased for $1 in 1955 would require approximately $10.50 in 2025. This illustrates how inflation has eroded the purchasing power of the dollar over the decades. Understanding these changes in purchasing power is crucial for financial planning and assessing economic conditions over time.  Wikipedia Calculator.net

      Ac not keeping up

      By Aimatdeer · Posted

      The thermometer has been in my wife's 2008 envoy, my sons 2016 chevy, my friends 2020 1500 silverado all showing cooler readings. It's not the guage.

      Trim level custom/pro

      By Gary Doolin · Posted

      Have a question concerning trim levels. Ive not bought a new vehicle since 2006, and I have decided on a 2500 gmc pro or silverado custom. For anyone that has one of these 2 trim levels have you regretted not stepping up to the LT or SLE. I look at things as the more electronics the more problems to arise. I love the look of the old school gauges on the dash as well. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

      If that guage has a way to adjust [hex on bottom], put that thing in a glass full of ice, put water in, put your gage in, let it sit for 3 minutes or so, and set it to 33 degrees.
