Problem with Denali stereo

[eldog]

New to the forum and need help. Just changed the battery in my 2001 denali. After connecting, the stereo only comes up with "LOC" and wont do anything. guess i should have powered it down before taking out the battery.

 

cd changer will eject and load but cant get past LOC. tried pulling out the fuse, but no help/

 

thanks in advance

It's probably the problem, and the solution.

Your Denali has a theft lock security system. If the stereo is stolen, or if the battery is disconnected, the stereo will be inoperable. You must enter the individual ID code number for your stereo before it will work again. If you do not have this number, you will have to contact the dealer to get it. For future reference, this feature can be turned off when you must disconnect the battery. A Haynes manual will give you the procedure if it is not in your owners manual.

 

Good Luck.

Thanks! sounds like i will have to go to a dealer. I am the third owner, I am in North Carolina, car originally sold in PA. Can a Chevy dealer unlock it? or do i have to go to a GMC dealer?
