Bit of a long post coming up but any info appreciated!
2014 L83 Stage 3 BTR Cam, supporting head work, kooks headers and circle d 3200 stall. 6L80

Had a harness in my rear passenger door break, 4 broken wires, obviously happened over time however i only noticed when the interior lights stayed on, cluster said the door was open and the window wouldn’t work. Along with that the airbag light would come on, the truck start acting funny, and the most noticeable thing of it all was the transmission start to slip/flare from 2nd to 3rd gear while about 25% throttle, WOT never gave an issue both D and Manual. Went to GM and got the harness i needed and replaced it. The flaring stopped from 2nd to 3rd instantly however developed a terrible flare from 3rd to 4th gear under any throttle both D and Manual. The only way to shift it is to select manual mode, back off throttle, select 4th gear and come back on throttle. The tune that had been written for the truck always flared 3-4 under WOT but never gave issues at 70% and below, i had been waiting on a retune to rectify this. I tried reinstalling the tune  to see if maybe when the harness broke wires got crossed and somehow confused the TCM, but no luck, instantly kept flaring 3-4th. Trans is running normal temps, fluid is at correct level and has no particles in it and doesn’t smell burnt.

i replaced the transmission 2 and a half years ago with a brand new one and had all modifications done on the truck and 20k miles ago by a reputable shop.

Has anybody got some tips for me, or have had similar issues, i run HP Tuners and can send a data log to anyone who can look for bad things. 
would it be possible the crossed wires could have fried something and is causing this or does it sound more like an internal problem? I’ve read forums of similar problems ending with all different results such as complete transmission failure to a fault MAF sensor. Any help and advice is much appreciated

Have you tried resetting the transmission adapts with the VCM scanner yet?

      2026 6.6 L5P oil cooler leaking oil at 4,000 miles

      By Brendan C · Posted

      New to diesel trucks. I happened to find my oil cooler leaking oil externally with only 4,000 miles on the truck. I didn’t realize this was an issue until I started researching it. Dealer is going to replace it under warranty but I’m wondering if there’s anything GM is working on to fix this issue. I’ve heard the oil filter used is the same as they use on their V6 motors and that’s what is causing the problems. Should I switch to a bigger filter or keep using the OEM recommended?

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By Vu1can · Posted

      So, GMCustomerService:  Judging by the Update History pictured above, is this truck missing any updates that it actually needs. If it's just for the infotainment system, the radio is working fine and no trouble with SeriusXM. and Android Auto is working fine wirelessly with my phone. Some months ago, an update notice was sent to my truck. I approved the update and it finished saying that the update was successful, but it seems that whatever that update was, it didn't actually get installed - at least not if I'm to go by the Update History shown above.   So, again, are there any updates that this truck really should have? I've checked with my dealer but they're reluctant or commit to anything and if I want them to check, they require a $200.00 fee just to check it out and then I'd have to pay for the actual update(s).    Ignorance is bliss, and if none of the updates goes to fixing any mechanical discrepancies, I'll just leave things as is.

      Electrical Problem - solved

      By CNH-320 · Posted

      Hey everyone, I recently had an issue with my 07 2500HD GMT900. My DRL’s stay on at all times. Right front turn and right mirror turn signal indicator stay on solid at all times. By “at all times” I mean the only way to make them go off is disconnecting the battery. I tore the headlight assemblies out, tried disconnecting the harnesses to eliminate bad wiring at the harness, I unplugged the headlight switch, no change and the mirror turn signal still stayed on. My first thoughts were : Bad bulb and/or socket somewhere, under hood fuse panel bad, bcm bad, tail light or trailer wiring problem, or some random short to power in the harness.  Possibly a bad ground but unlikely. I had a big clue in the fuse panel, it had a burnt smell. I started pulling every fuse that had to do with DRL or right turn/park lamp. Nothing made the right directional turn off but pulling the DRL2 fuse made the DRL’s go out.  After studying wiring diagrams, I found that both problems had that fuse panel in common, the bcm also controls both problems but knowing the fuse panel had a burnt smell I removed and disassembled the fuse panel and found a little corrosion on the printed circuit board.  I ordered a new fuse panel from Amazon for like $260. When it arrived I installed it, and put everything back together, the problem was fixed. I figured the fuse panel needed to be replaced anyway so that was a logical place to start. Hopefully this story helps someone in the future. Regretfully I didn’t scan for codes before I did everything.

      That stinks. I’m sitting on the side of the road right now with the same issue. Never had an issue before taking it in for the ground strap recall. Now I’m outside of warranty and they’ll probably want $200 just to diagnose what they already “fixed”.

      I wonder kind of nuts and bolts they will come up with next? Jim
