Drove to the cabin this past weekend and Google Maps (Vehicle Nav System) worked great.  I know the route so don't need the nav but it is nice to see arrival times and have it re-route for potential traffic issues.  Anyway, leaving to come home and select my home address from the favorites, route is entered it calculates and I head towards home.  The NAV location never leaves my cabin though, its stuck at that location.  Pulled over to reboot to no avail.  Called OnStar and they tried a reset procedure that seemed to do nothing (holding ther home button for 20 seconds).  The WiFi was working and I was signed into my current Google account.

 

They escalated the issue yesterday and I have I yet to get a call back.  I have had more quirky electrical/tech issues on this truck than my last 3 combined.

That's happened to me a couple times as well. I just reset the head unit (hold the mute/hangup button on the steering wheel for about 10 sec while the truck is on in park) and that has cleared it up. Annoying for sure.

My '24 Ultimate has been plagued by these gremlins as well.  Have taken to the dealer they flash modules then it is good for a while then the gremlins reappear.  Example this weekend driving and XM rebooted twice while driving as well as google maps full random reboots map disappears and everything just a scroll bar while driving not in bad coverage area either.  Mine has also played the route no route game a few times where it will just lock up and not show your correct location anymore. Not overly impressed thus far my '21 had zero issues the entire time I owned it.

I just got in the truck and noticed the Nav rebooting.  It is now resolved, not sure if it was something sent from On Star, I never did hear back from them.

My dealer did tell me to push the OnStar button anytime the screen has issues as they can reset and push updates to the truck to resolve most glitches.

If the GPS is losing signal, there is a new app that can be downloaded.  Go to the app store and download.  I forget the name of the app to download but I think there are only a few to chose from.  There was a software bug on the Google side of the system.

Update the Google maps app through the play store app on your infotainment screen.  Similar to looking for app updates on your phone.

Has anyone had an solution to the GPS signal not found on Google maps.  Just picked up a new 2024 3500hd and still have this issue GM dealer said this is normal the solution he told me was to simple use either Apple or Andriod connected services Instead of the trucks Google maps.  I realize this is an old thread but hoping I have missed something

"Don't use the built-in Google system and use AA or CarPlay" seems like a cop-out answer on the dealer's part. However, I would agree that it's the best answer. I had the "signal not found" issue several times and the only fix was to reboot the head unit (hold down the end call button on the steering wheel for ~10 seconds while in park).

 

After my data trial ended I've just been using Android Auto and it seems to work much better than the built-in maps. Other people have mentioned software updates fixing things, but you have to go to the dealer for the update.

Thanks, and yes reseting the system makes sense.  I had assumed that after 8 months GM and Google would have come up with a software patch to stop having to reset the software when  it locks up.  I have e used Andriod Auto in the past but this new truck had the 3 years included data so though that made more sense at any rate I will keep on the dealer to clue them in to customer service as apposed to the who cares attitude they currently have.  I'm a little concerned that if this minor issue does not matter will they care anymore about the bigger ones if they arrive.

 

Thanks again

      Mangoal or FitcamX OEM Dashcam?

      By MANGOAL · Posted

      Late reply, but yes—it works on the SLT trim. Compatibility comes down to the plastic shroud shape behind your mirror, not the trim badge itself. On the SLT with auto-dimming, it uses a plug-and-play Y-harness off the mirror/rain sensor power, so no need to run wires down to the OBD port. If anyone's ever unsure about fitment, just drop a photo of your mirror housing and we can double-check it.   Appreciate the detailed feedback on the install! On the windshield glare—we actually took feedback like yours and developed a dedicated CPL (polarizer) filter to cut down dash reflections on sunny days. If you're still running the cam, shoot me a DM. I'd be happy to send a CPL filter over for you to test out—no charge.

      Yes, every time the developer updates his code, you must recompile. I will private message you with the latest because it changes pretty much with every version.

      Transmission Temperature Hitting 220s

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      After I wrote that reply I went for a ride. 85 F out. So trans started at 85 F and it shifted the same as it did an hour latter at 168 F. I've never actually recorded the to cold to shift point but it is under 32 F before they start hanging on to a lower gear or leaving the converter unlocked. Both intended to heat fluid.    Yes, brake or bake. Absolutely.      Your welcome. True research ended decades ago. Field trials are still in play.    There is a thing called oxidation onset temperature. This is the heat related oxidation not the O2 exposure kind. For mineral oil that starts at 140 F. So what happens after 140 F? Each 20 F cuts fluid life in half! Does using a Full Synthetic improve that? Yes! By how much? Depends on the base oil type and a few other factors. But enough to notice. Some esters are even higher. There are even synergies between types the will raise it higher than any one component is alone.    Then there is "Hindered" oils. Antioxidant additives. Hindered Polyol Esters can sit at 500 F for years in a turbine.   When a blender brags his oil will 'take 500 F" in service he doesn't specify for how long. Water will dance on a 500 F hot plate for several seconds. @newdude put up a chart showing the relationship between fluid temperature and it's life in an automatic transmission. Here's a version of that chart for Group III based oils. These temperatures are those in the pan as observed as 'normal'. that is you drive as you do for as long as you do under what load you ask of it and whatever that temperature is this graph applies to. Flash temperatures of a few minutes isn't what his means.    Note that fluids held at a constant 240 F have a service life of only 20K miles. 220 F explains the factory exchange limit, eh? My equipment I keep under 180 F and I'm good if the cooler will hold it as low as 140 F. But that's me.
