So I am probably jinxing myself right now, for me I did the fuse pull and put back in and it has been working again for the last 5 days. We'll see.

Mine has been working for a few weeks after I bent the fuse spades a tiny bit to ensure a snug fit. We took a trip from Las Vegas to San Francisco this Last week. There was a huge gap in temps. This is my theory:  The fuse block has a defect in the space tolerance, which means that the natural expansion and contraction would cause it to throw the code. Here in Vegas, we have high temps during the day and a 20+ degree drop during the night. With the drop, the metal contracts and loses contact, resulting in the code. It always happens during the night. It's never gone out while driving, or during the higher day temps. With my trip, the highest temps last week in San Fran were in the 60s, and we drove straight through to Las Vegas. Everythingis still working fine. That's my 2 cents worth! 😂

Mine happened in the middle of the day most of the times and once or twice in the morning... Most of the time I was stopping at a gas station and when I got back to the truck, The system failed again(tuck was off and I started it when I got back from the store)

The fuse legs sits very tight, I don't think this is our issue...

 

BTW, one week after the module swap. Still works fine, no need for fuse pulls...

That's awesome! I will add, location temps and humidity will play a part as well.

I just started having this issue yesterday. I cleaned off in front of the camera and when that didn't work I found this thread. I removed and reinstalled the fuse a couple of times and it only reset it for a second. I then used one of the replacement fuses and that didn't help either. I have an appointment scheduled but it's not until the end of next week.

So, if it worked for a little bit, I would bend the spades slightly, and wait 10 minutes before you reinstall it. That's kind of what happened to me as well, but after bending the spades a bit, I've not had an issue at all. Worth a try, either way, this is proving to be an electrical issue. So, fuse blocked and/or wiring harness. If it's wiring harness, that's going to be awful to try and figure out and repair.

Dealership visit happened yesterday and they replaced the “camera/cornea” and all was resolved. Was a faulty eye and part was overnighted and replaced.  Took 10 hrs but the issue is fixed. Are any of you under warranty still?

Most of us have less than 5k on the trucks. Hopefully, yours was that issue, but after my experience with  jeep wrangler ruby, I don't trust the dealerships. All that Jeep needed was a software update. The lead mechanic told me that they are forced by the dealer to do repairs to placate the customer to show that they were "trying" to fix the issue until a update was pushed, and they made thousands off of doing needless repairs. They make money off repairs, including warranty. There's another thread here that had the camera replaced and it lasted a few days, then did the same thing. I don't mean to be a Debbie downer, but I want you to be as informed and educated as possible. Good luck to you!

I’m educated and informed so thanks and appreciate everyone’s help, but it is their job to fix it. It’s only time I have to spend. I’ll take it back until they get it right if I have to. If it’s fixed then I’m happy. Hopefully it’s not a consistent Chevy problem or I’ll cut my losses inside 5k if I have to

My 22 R TB done this at 1,500 miles. Pulled the fuse and reset.

I tried waiting more than 10 minutes and bent the spades on the fuse but when I put the fuse back in the light comes back on 5 seconds later. I tried that several times and had no luck. There must be a fault somewhere in the system that is making the light come on.

You’re removing the fuse when the truck is off, correct?🤔

The truck needs to be off before you pull the fuse.

Yes, I am doing it with the truck off. When I start the truck after putting the fuse back in the light comes back on and a message comes up saying forward collision alert is not available. It must need something more than a reset.

Yeah, thats different than mine. My forward collision wasn't the first thing, it was lane assist. The next day was the collision, and by 3rd day cruise control was out. I've not had any issues after I tweaked the fuse and reset. You could also take the battery cables off for 10 minutes and it should reset the ECM before you haul it up to the dealer. Worth a shot to avoid the aggravation.

    • Anyone have any info about backorder time? It's classic 4th of July hot here in ohio.
    • There would be one way of determining the quality of the factory oil although probably more than a typical oil lab test, and that would be to draw out some oil from a new truck and send a sample to a lab that could do a more elaborate test of the oil. The issue with too little oil in the diff may not be the lack of lubrication of the diff bearings and gears themselves ( although a lack of oil volume for cooling ) but the wheel bearings because at some point the oil would be too low to properly get onto the spinning axle or fed along the axle tube. That was the claim by the local dealer from a couple of trucks in recent years that had the wheel bearings fail and they figured from lack of sufficient oil due to a severe underfilled diff and some of the bearing material made its way to the diff and it got damaged as well so the axle housings were just replaced on warranty. But your right that if the diff is over filled by whatever margin that it causes more churning of the oil than is desirable and that is no good either and can cause a pinion seal to leak. Also old oil I believe can tend to loose some of its properties like antifoaming and another good reason to change the diff oil every so often. 
    • I would be surprised if the diff's were not filled (with the cheapest gear lube) at the axle factory before being shipped to GM.  If you ever watched them building trucks they install the axles and all suspension parts with the frame upside down and then turn it over before its time to install the engine.     Too much gear lube in a axle can be worse than not enough especially with a lower quality GL where is get whipped up with entrained air (foam)  weakening its ability to lubricate.        
    • This is the 6.6 gasser section of the forum, you should either delete or modify your previous post as it is misleading for anyone looking for factual information on their 6.6 gas engine.
    • Well....I've done my first intake gasket. Probably wrong, but...we'll see?   Ultra black on the china walls and 1/4" up onto the sides of the intake gaskets. Permatex High Tack (couldn't find Gaskachinch) on the head side of the intake gasket. I read wrong and it says you're supposed to put it on the mating surface of the head, not the gasket. Hoping it's like a PB&J sandwich where it doesn't matter what side the PB goes on so long as there's jelly. That crap is messy/sticky and I got a dab or two on the intake port openings, tried to wipe it off. Hopefully it won't be a big deal and will only aid in sealing.   Per instructions I left the intake (top side) of the gasket dry except for a light smear of RTV around the coolant ports. Wiggling the intake in there was a bear but I had help to free me of surrounding wiring/stuff but I was basically able to set it straight down lined up with the bolt holes.   I did not think to wait until the RTV skinned over but there probably was 5-10 minutes while it sat before installing the intake.   Bolts finger tight first. Then, followed the Chilton's manual pattern to snug them to 15 lb-ft.   Waited a little over an hour, and then did the final torque in sequence again to 35 lb-ft.   Yesterday I replaced the fuel pressure regulator and got my new "nut and bolt kit" (fuel lines) installed. Damn GM used security torx on the spider, which I don't have, so I got scammed at the local HW store for an off-brand security Torx bit set.   The new driver's door mirror arrived yesterday, so, there's a chance this thing could be running and road legal tomorrow? I don't want to get my hopes up.   This will be my first time stabbing a distributor, too. Although, lucky me, someone else marked the old distributor for removal previously, I did see that. (Someone's been here before!!). Engine is still at TDC so it *should* be just a matter of transferring the mark to the new dizzy and rotating it into place.
