Had to jump start the truck Sunday morning.  Now I have this.  How in the hell do I clear it? Have an appointment with the dealer for Wednesday.  Hopefully it's something I can do myself for free.

Is it possible that the GPS needs to recalibrate the compass information? Check the manual for how to do that as it typically involves driving in circles / figure 8 a number of times if that's what it is.

I thought the same thing but the compass on the DIC is correct.

Unhook the battery + and negative - cables and leave it unhooked for about 5-10 minutes or longer to drain the system and hook it back up and try it, it sensed a voltage spike when jump starting.

Replacing batteries before they die is a good idea.

That's helpful in figuring out the issue.  For your information, the battery was 1 week old!  So piss off.

Tried that.  Didn't help unfortunately.

This is from the work order from the dealer.

Checked for radio software and found the radio not calibrated.  Tech programmed and calibrated the radio to the vehicle. Tested operation.  All ok at this time.
Programming Code: 80YN199825780

They could not explain why the radio lost it's calibration.  Claim they have never seen that before but they always claim that.

No idea why a 1 week old battery would need a jump.  They said it was low but passed all the tests.  They put it on a charger for a couple of hours.
I had the battery installed at Firestone as a preventative measure.  It was 4-5 years old and we were expecting temps of -5F.  Maybe they didn't charge it at all?  No idea.  We'll see how long she holds.  I'm concerned there is a parasitic power draw somewhere.

No need to be a  jerk, I made a suggestion. Original post said nothing about battery being replaced. 

Another suggestion, I always put a full charge on new batteries with my charger.

You made a suggestion based on an assumption.  An incorrect assumption at that.  Your suggestion did absolutely nothing to address the question that was posted.  It was simply a smart ass comment.

As for fully charging a new battery... if I had been the one to install the battery I would do this.  I would not expect to have to charge a new battery installed by a shop.

I use to work at an auto parts store.  We carried Exide batteries.  We always swapped out unsold batteries that were 6 months old.  Might want to look at the manufacture date on the battery.  It's often times just a simple circle sticker with a month and year on it, such as 12/23 for December 2023.  If it was 6 months or older at the time it was installed that could possibly explain why you experienced the issue you did.

 

The only way it was a 1 week old battery is if it had been manufactured 1 week before it was installed in your truck, but you wouldn't be able to know that info.  Best you be able to figure is in months.

      Fred was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred young pullets, and ten roosters to fertilize the eggs He kept records, and any rooster not performing went into the soup pot and was replaced. This took a lot of time, so he bought some tiny bells and attached them to his roosters. Each bell had a different tone, so he could tell from a distance, which rooster was performing. Now, he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report by just listening to the bells. Fred's favourite rooster, old Butch, was a very fine specimen, but this morning he noticed old Butch's bell hadn't rung at all! When he went to investigate, he saw the other roosters were busy chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing, but the pullets, hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover. To Fred's amazement, old Butch had his bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring. He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one. Fred was so proud of old Butch, he entered him in the City Show and he became an overnight sensation among the judges. The result was the judges not only awarded old Butch the "No Bell Piece Prize," but they also awarded him the "Pulletsurprise" as well. Clearly old Butch was a politician in the making. Who else but a politician could figure out how to win two of the most coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the unsuspecting populace and screwing them when they weren't paying attention. Vote carefully in the next election, you can't always hear the bells.

      High Country Suburban build confirmation

      By 3CarSeatDad · Posted

      Can someone confirm if the GM order workbench terminal is able to validate a custom build sequence:   1) Initialize the Allocation Base: Open a new vehicle build queue, select the 2026 Chevrolet Suburban 4WD, and pick the High Country (3LZ Preferred Equipment Group).   2) Select the Diesel Powertrain: Go directly to the engine configuration screen and choose RPO code LZ0 (3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel). Ensure it maps to the MHS 10-speed automatic transmission.   3) Deploy the Seating Swap: Navigate to the Interior Options screen and enter RPO code ATT to replace the standard captain's chairs with the power-release 60/40 bench seat. Because you are not trying to force a separate luxury or air-suspension bundle, the standard, premium D07 Fixed Floor Console remains active. The system will accept this change immediately without triggering a warning message.   3)Apply Heavy-Duty Hauling Capability: Input RPO code NHT (Max Trailering Package). The commercial terminal will automatically bundle the required trailering hardware and software modules to support the diesel engine's maximum towing capacity.   5) Layer the Premium Tech and Glass: Separately add code C3U (Panoramic Power Sunroof) and code UKL (Super Cruise) to the order screen.   6) Run the Final Validation: Click the "Validate Order" button at the bottom of the interface.

      Looking at ordering a '26 WT because I want a std cab, std bed

      Spent the last hour or 2 googling and reading up on the spacer thing. I don't like the loss of thread contact on the slip on spacers, but it appears you can get "extended" lug nuts that reach into the hole of the wheel to get back the lost threads. Looks like the only true hubcentric slip on spacers are at least .375". I'd want as little as I could get away with and don't want to cause other clearance issues going any thicker. Bora seems to offer what appears to be a well made .375" spacer and extended lug nuts. I searched here and did find a couple threads recommending Bora. But not cheap. By the time I buy spacers and lugs, new TPMS sensors, then pay a tire shop to install the new sensors, I suspect I'm going to be in over $400. Thinking about running out and getting some washers to put behind the wheel to see if .375" is enough to clear calipers, turn lock to lock without rubbing, and to see if the wheels/tires look strange pushed out a little. This would just be to check fitment.

      Road Master Active Suspension

      By Core-Lokt · Posted

      Roadmaster makes some quality parts; I have their sway bar. I considered the RAS, but I ended up bagging. I didn't know what kind of ride I'd get with RAS, and the bags have interior jounce bumpers, so I can run 0 pounds pressure. I figured I'd have the best of normal suspension ride with assist on-demand. But it seems you got pretty much the same in one item.
