2001 Tahoe Lt 4x4 Power Window Out Help


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello all,

 

First post here and I decided to join because of googling my Tahoe code problems always led me back to this forum so I decided to join today. I have a 2000/01 Chevy Tahoe LT 4x4 that has around 127,000 miles on it with the same original breaks. :crackup:

I am starting to get little things going out in my SUV now and it is starting to drive me crazy specially the drivers side power window will not go down. I notice it starting to go out about a month ago, and I am not sure if it is the button on the door or the window itself? When using the driver side window button it use to stop while it was going down then I would have to press really hard on the button to make the window finish going down. Now after a couple of weeks it finally stop all together from going down and now the button makes a CLICKING sound only on the driver side button. All other buttons work for the rest of the SUV. Now do I need to replace the button or have to open the driver side door up to find my problem within the window motor?

 

Thanks for your input..

I'd suggest that you remove the door panel, sound like a broken window regulator which is tipical on these trucks. Remove the panel and look for broken cable.

Never removed my door panel on this suv yet. Any instructions/ pictures or links to follow. Thanks for your help

    • I can relate. 3 years ago I did that on my Avalanche. I was sore for a week. The only maintenance I do myself now is drop and fill on the transmission on my Honda’s. It’s just too easy. My yard work with my walks in the morning will be enough now I passed 70. The contributing factor is the heat in Texas. You just have to pace yourself. 
    • I am sorry if this was misleading. That was a document attached to our most recent work order number (Doc# 7105804) that summarized all the current updates. These programs were ‘redone’ in the past but these versions dated 4/1/2016 were the ones that actually made all of the problems disappear. These programs were relayed to the dealer from the technical services group at GM. Here is the exact wording on the last work order:   “Front view camera reprogramming with SPS. A new version of FCM software was released to the service dept. In addition to providing general robustness and stability enhancements, this update includes all enhancements from previous software version releases. SPS camera and calibrate camera. OLH to perform extended camera relearn procedure after camera calibration. Would not take with first GDS learn. Front camera SPS – BDYZ333157450 GDS2 – camera road calibration performed 2810835 Front view camera reprogramming with SPS LT 0.6 OLH – extended camera relearn procedure OLH LT 1.5”   I got the truck back on 4/8 – since that time it has been great no problems whatsoever. The lane keep assist, active cruise control and AEB all work very well around town and at highway speeds up to 80mph. During this time I had been away for a week and purposely let the battery sit without a batter tender. Even with the battery a bit lower there were no problems exhibited. I really think this one has it fixed after dealing with these issues over a couple of years. These new programs and relearn process when completed seem to make all the parts (and newer replacement parts) ‘talk’ to each other without any glitches. Hope this helps
    • I turned 72 today. My day began with a trip to the pharmacy to pickup meds for me and the dog and then a stop at my chiropractor before heading home. Once home I started the job of replacing the rear brake pads and one rotor on our 2018 Silverado which will probably end up taking me 3 days to finish, gotta pace myself you know. Sometimes I question myself on why I still do most of my own repairs but if I wasn't then it's more than likely I would be sitting in front of the TV all day. It seems like the list of things I need to do gets longer no matter what I accomplish. I'm not complaining but being retired was so much easier when I was 62.   Peace
    • google "bathub failure curve". Basically, any part of the vehicle can fail at any time.  It starts off as being more likely (early failure), then the failure rate goes down (but does not go to zero), then it goes up over time because it wears/ages out.
    • I went from every other day to about once in five since the rain abated. I'm not unhappy about that. Took most of the month for the ditches to dry enough to mow.
