Pull the fuse for the forward collision camera for 15 minutes vehicle off.

Pulled the fuse and still have same issue. Nobody seems to be able to come up with fix. GM nor dealership have an answer. Replaced everything. Just need to see how many other 2020 LTZ are having same issue. I'm thinking there are a lot more out there not working but owners are just not using them instead of spending the money to get fixed. Mine is still under extended warranty. GM saying they have not had this issue before. So I need to know how many are having same issue.

Thanks

Thanks so much. GM has a problem that can't be fixed. Also Intella beam is considered a safety issue. With mine under warranty i stuck and can't get fixed.

Then I'd say the forward collision camera is bad again.    

 

These act up on the refresh trucks more than the 19-22s.  22.5-25 its pull the fuse to reset, if it resets give it back.  A good number won't act up again.  Those that do get a camera.  Some more than one time.

Thanks, but I do not think the dealership is going to put in another camera. They have put in a BCM and camera. There is nothing else to replace to fix issue. I was told by dealership that this is a GM issue with no fix.

Why not?  The camera they installed would be either under a parts warranty 2 years unlimited miles.  

 

Plenty of other trucks on the road with functioning Intellibeam.  Its not a "GM issue", its an issue with your truck.  Bad camera, bad something.

Thanks 

I will see what dealer says but I seriously doubt they will change out new parts at their cost and labor. I agree that the issue is with truck but from other replies there are quite a few with same problem. Now I am wondering how many out there work correctly. 

Thanks much for input. Just want to get this issue fixed and I am out of options.

Clearly there have been issues with intellibeam, but ours have not had a failure -- so it's not an 'every vehicle' issue.

 

Been running intellibeam since 2016. 

(5 vehicles, counting his and hers)

 

All have always worked without failure.

 

Sometimes (not always) the speed switch points (doesn't turn on until above 25 mph, and turns on, and turns off below 12 mph it turns) can be annoying  -- but that's how they are programmed.

In some traffic situations I don't like the way it responds. (on / off too frequently

I do switch it off sometimes because in those situations.

 

 

I do like the button on the end of the stalk for operating it MUCH better than the original method when it was first available in trucks.  (if iintellibeam was disabled it required manipulating the blinker stalk 2 times in 2 seconds)

I had these issues with my 2020 AT4. GM electronic engineers involved. Check my previous posts. The problem was never solved before my lease was up. Turned it in with the problem.

I am noticing this on my 2024.   Have not been to dealer, 100 miles from them and its not an problem at the moment because not using truck at night with long summer days.

      2018 Silverado Console USB Port Not Working

      By Tbhats2130 · Posted

      My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.

      The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.

      OCI, not when but why?

      I have four that read by the dash 8 to 10% better than miles/pump calculations and I have one that is spot on.
