Hello, my wife's 19 suburban the touch screen has not been working correctly for the last few months. Sometimes it senses touches on its own and sometimes it does work for a short period of time. cold or hot outside doesn't seem to change anything. The screen does not to appear to be damaged. We have only owned it for about 10 months. Is the best option to just replace it or is there a way to repair the current screen or is something else causing this?

 

Thank You

There is a company called OEMCARAUDIO on ebay that you can send your unit to for repair.  There's also another company called upfix.com that is highly praised by Vehcor on youtube.  

 

 

I have dealt with the former many years ago for a small repair and had good service.

In case anyone else finds this OEMCARAUDIO will repair it for $325 plus shipping and upfix.com doesn't work on these.

Let us know how it works out when you get it back.  Have considered replacing my unit with an aftermarket but the companies and the units don't seem to last.  Still trying to get HERE! to do a map update.

Ill report back. Its there the instructions they gave me said do not ship the bracket. Well they called me because they need the bracket to diagnose it and repair it. So I boxed the bracket up and shipping it out today.  The problem with aftermarket is they are so busy and difficult to use. My wife needs simple.

So the instructions they give you when shipping in your screen says do not include the bracket. So I removed the screen from the entire bracket and shipped it in. They then called me and said they need the bracket. So I shipped the bracket in and they determined my screen was not repairable. They sold me a refurbished unit for $625 so I did that. I got it back Saturday night and put it in Sunday morning an it works like it should. If it goes out again i will go aftermarket.

Just so you know, there is a cheaper alternative. I had the same issue with my 2016 Tahoe. After a while of looking for cost effective solutions, I just ignored it because i grew accustomed to using the menu knob to navigate the screen. Then I found this video on YouTube.

 

It turns out that the digitizer was bad. I was skeptical but gave it a try anyway. Works like a charm now. Here is the part I purchased for $40 bucks:

I’m sure you have the tools since you have removed the screen before. If it happens again, Fix it. I’m sure the company you purchased from just performed the work done in the video on another unit and sold you it for $625. They also kept yours to fix it and sell it the the next guy. Hope this helps

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By KARNUT · Posted

      More is cylinder deactivation. Kia-Hyundai Ive had 4. The warranty is the same 10 years 100K miles. My grandson drives the first one 05 Elantra GT. My wife drives the second one 2011 Genesis. The Genesis still performs as new and looks great. The Elantra looks rough. He’s not kind to it. The third was a Genesis coup. The fourth was a Santa Fe. Those were my daily drivers. I don’t keep them long. Kia is the same as Hyundai with the same warranty. I looked at the K-4 today. Too small, otherwise pretty good buy. Most of Hyundai and Kia’s have a performance upgrade.

      Oil Consumption

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Great question. Answer....depends. One the volume of the crankcase, the driver that will actually be using the vehicle and the amount it uses plus the distance expected for that next trip. Couple of for instances:   Wife is going to drive Dizzy to Moline and back plus a bit around town so say 500 miles on the day. I know from years with that SUV that around town and local rural it uses about a quart in 1250 miles. But on the Interstate and her at the wheel without her anchor nagging her she'll push it and it will drop a quart in about 800 miles. Hence, around town I wait to somewhere between a quarter down to a quart down. On her trip I'd top it if it was down a few ounces and hope for the best.    Have I overfilled one? You mean by adding before it needs a full quart I assume. No, not once after finding the true fill mark.  I know the dipsticks of everything I drive and add what it needs. I learn this by doing the first oil change a quart low. Run the motor for a few minutes. Let it sit over night. Check and mark. Then add half a cup at a time making note of the place on the stick. I add through the dipstick tube with a barbeque basting bottle. Give it a few minutes to drain down and check again.    A vehicle like Dizzy that uses this much oil will take a few quarts between 3K changes. I keep one in the vehicle with the bottle and a bag. (Mindful of it's fullness) Not a big deal and never makes a mess of it. There is no such thing as "multiple quarts' in my shop for any specific oil. There will be a maximum however of the number of different oils used over the fleet.     Dizzy holds a nominal 5 quarts. So the first fill was indeed over as it actually took 4.75. My vehicles are fit with Valvomax valves so I can meter an ounce on the drain if need be. Found her mark first crack at it. Never to be repeated.    Pepper uses none between changes so I don't keep a quart in that one. Straight up 6 quarts put her dead on the full line. Check it ever fuel stop. They will surprise you when they start using.    Raven holds 3 liters or 5.44 ounces over three quarts. I add 3 quarts and 6 ounces. That gives me 5 oil changes on my orphan quart.    Lawnmower holds about 3/5 of a quart. I don't over fill it to prevent an orphan. So yea, depends.

      185k on original 6.2L engine and 10 speed. 6" lift with 35" tires. Changed oil (Mobil 1 synthetic) when truck told me to. Original tranny with original fluid and no service or flush done. All highway miles. A/C compressor replaced at 155k. Oil cooler line replaced at 180k. Still daily driver. Love this truck.   This is my 3rd 6.2L vehicle (2008 Yukon Denali / 2018 Cadillac Escalade) with over 150k miles and no issues. Denali had broken motor mount at 100k.
