After battery replacement issues

2020 Sierra 1500 Denali 6.2

About a week ago I had a strange bunch of error issues, no power steering, running boards going backwards when the door was opened etc. Never tried other features like active cruise control or lane assist.

I thought it was an old battery issue, but found out on this forum that it could be a bad grounding strap -that was what the problem was and it seemed to fix all of the problems. It was the braided one on ps from the frame to the firewall.

Since many on here and on the Corvette forum says to change the battery in 3-5 years to keep from having problems, I decided to change the battery.

Replaced with the correct ac/ delco battery and everything still seemed fine.

But, I just took it on the first highway trip and I have two problems:

1 adaptive cruise control temporarily unavailable and when I try regular cruise I get nothing.

2 lane assist is not working and when I use the switch it does nothing -no message regarding on or off.


I didn’t time how long the cables were off, but I’m thinking that it wasn’t long enough to do a reset ?

Maybe the voltage drops that happened before I replaced the grounding strap, had also goofed up acc and lane assist?

 

Should I take off the battery ground cable for 15 minutes to see if that resets it or is there something else that I should try?

Pull the forward collision camera fuse for 15 minutes and put it back in.  See what happens after that.  Fuse F18 in the passenger side dash fuse box.

Tried that and no luck. Thanks for the recommendation!

Anything else I can try or do I have to give in and go to the dealer 😳

I also tried taking off the negative battery cable, with the headlight switch on, for over 20 minutes and no change.

Ok, brought it to the dealer and had sensor/ module communication errors. They did a system update and all set!

Total cost just over $200.00 -same day service.

2020 Silverado 2500HD, after replacing batteries, lane departure "unavailable", collision avoidance not working.  Dealer relearned camera system but still not working and they can't find any service bulletins related. Looking for ideas.

      Your tire pressure issue may just be batteries, you can reset them using tge Ing switch (I think) and the owner's  manual. ChatGTP will b e a faster, better help than Google.

      The thinking is that starting out in a higher gear makes it easier to avoid applying excessive torque when pressing the gas pedal. In a modern 4wd truck with 4 low and a limited slip or locking rear end, I would use 4 low and try to crawl up the ramp. Sometimes if they are too slippery, you have to back up to let the boat have some bouyancy, and then accelerate briskly to get some momentum to help you pull the through the slippery parts.

      I have a Retrax pro that I first had on my 2020 chevy and transferred it to my current GMC.  It stays in the garage most of the time, so hard for me to judge it's long term weather resistance.  It still works perfectly, been very durable.  It doesn't see oil patch usage, but it's not a mall queen.  It keeps most things mostly dry (small leaks) and the security of it is enough to slow someone down but not keep them out for long.  I would buy one again, it works for me.

      Thanks to the convenience of Amazon, I was able to get a few things done to the truck today.  I installed Carquest Premium oil and air filters with five quarts of Mobil1 High Mileage 10-30 along with a quart of Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 I already had.  The latch for the flip up center console lid was broken so I replaced it along with the power mirror switch.  I found my push retainer assortment this morning and reattached the plastic under the bumper and it was only held on with a few screws and retainers.  Then I programmed a new remote keyless entry fob so I can lock my dog in the truck when I take her out with me (I've got to keep the air going for her since it's been in the 100s).  Finally, I ordered some LED interior bulbs and replaced the reading lamps.  The front lights are working fine while one of the back lights only works intermittently and the other not at all.   While under the truck, I found the source of at least one of the noises: the sway bar links need replacing.  I ordered a set of Suspension Dudes links with Code Red bushings.  Never heard of them, but they're made in the USA and have decent reviews.  While making yet another Amazon order, I went ahead and added a set of front tow hooks.  I went with red, since that's the color of the sway bar link and bushings and it should look decent enough on a black and chrome truck.  Speaking of which, it doesn't bug me much, but the passenger side mirror has a chrome cap while the driver side doesn't, so eventually I'll make them match one way or another.  Oh, and I ordered a $20 TPMS reset tool.  No idea if it will do anything for my sensors but it was cheap and will work for the Ford Transit Connect as well.     For tradition's sake, I ordered a new oil change wrench.  I kept the Snap-On 9/16"x15mm GM wrench I bought when I was 18 in the 2006 GMC from the time I bought that truck until the truck was lost.  While I was tempted, there's no need to spend $80 for a new SO wrench, or even $50 with shipping for a used one on Ebay.  I just bought a Duratech 15mm extra-long ratcheting wrench to do the job as needed.  It works, and if I like that wrench enough, I'll buy the set.

      Multigate electrical problem

      By Another JR · Posted

      The recall is for exactly this issue - those drain holes combined with the limited environmental capability of the tailgate electronics card inside the tailgate were a problem. The “safety issue” was the potential for the tailgate to spontaneously open, but all kinds of tailgate misbehavior can occur from water contamination of that control card.    There is no real fix yet. The initial recall just disabled the tailgate. Later, when parts became available, they would replace bad parts with new parts of the same bad design. My dealer is going nuts because the few times I let them get their hands on my truck, my tailgate is off due to a slide-in camper installation. They really want to cut my tailgate wires, but I won’t give them the chance. I will let them get their dirty hands on it when a real fix (redesign) is available.  My tailgate, which works just fine with sealant plugging the drain holes, will remain safe in a dry storage crate until then.
