Does anyone have any ideas what would be wrong with my truck stereo? I got in my truck and the radio station seemed like it was off the air- no static, just dead. So I tried changing channels, playing cd's- still no sound. It seems to be operating correct other than no sound. It's like as if you hit "mute". I have checked my owners manual and came up empty. Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

Ok, do you have the premium sound system (Bose)? There's some issues there with the radio/amplifier. Following TSBs apply:

 

02-08-44-018; Diagnostic Information for No Audio Out of Speakers on One or More Channels; 2003 Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, GMC Sierra, Yukon, XL, Hummer H2 with Premium Bose Sound Systems

 

02-08-44-020A; replaces 02-08-44-020; No Audio Out of Speakers at Times (Reprogram Radio and/or Replace Amplifier); 2003 Cadillac Escalade, EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon, XL, Hummer H2

 

Best bet is to take it to the dealer and let them check it out. And make sure you have the TSB numbers handy in case they can't duplicate your problem.

      I did the new thermostat after doing a 'flip' for a year. Runs as cool one way as the other in the summer but in the winter there is a bit of a floor. Yellow with the new 70 C thermostat. My data over the life of the unit to date. Still need more cooler. Anyway that floor helped both winter fuel economy and shift quality in the winter. I found it a good balance.

      Evan Williams Bottled in Bond   So pouring the last of a bottle of Evan Williams Black label last night I set off the the state store for a refill only to be denied the by an empty shelf. Rats.    What the did have was a bottle of Evan Williams Bottled in Bond. 100 proof. Hum, a few bucks more but a known distiller. Lets have a swing at it. ( I have before )    Cracked it open and pour a serving over ice. Hum.... more heat, yes. More alcohol naturally. But the barreling not the proof brings the taste and this one came up short.    Oh is was familiar but the heat ran the barrel over like a Peterbilt runs over a squirrel. Could use a heavier toasting of the oak me thinks or perhaps a longer barreling. Who knows. But what I can say is ice or a water back isn't the answer. What kills one kills them both. Sad. It is a pleasant drink....if you have little to compare it to.

      Bridgestone vs Goodyear tires?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      I've had exactly one set of Bridgestone. Lasted five year and 125,000 miles and had I known better 15oK would have been a cake walk. I would have bought a like set had they not tripled in price since the first set. I removed them at said mileage with 5/32" remaining in dead even wear all four. They were fuel efficient, quite, comfortable and predictable.    Early on I got a very good alignment checked at least once a year, sometimes twice; kept the tires properly inflated, balanced and rotated. And I've found that many a tire issue can be avoided with great maintenance practices. Lot's of tire dealers will do rotation and balance (simple) for free for as long as you own the tire they sold you so no excuse not to.    Bead prep, alloy integrity and stem health have a huge impact on inflation stability. There are more mountings done poorly that perfectly. Finding a good tire guy is gold and as important as finding a tire you like.    That 3X price increase now two sets of "other tires' later is starting look like a bargain.      Bad maintenance kills more tires than bad tires.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      Atlas, you kill me As aggravating as a project like this can be you have been unable to hide your fascination with learning and using that angst against this beast like a Ninjitsu Master. It amuses you, admit it now.      BTW, love your writing style. 😉

      I gotta say, I'm enjoying your narration. The troubles you've been having are amusing as you describe them. It's good to see that you're finally getting some satisfaction out the old beast though.
