Just press the top button on the DIC control
What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

Or unplug the box under passenger seat! All the beeping ever does is distract me when I'm already looking.
The one time I thought there was space, it didn't beep until after collision..
I try to check the rear camera more often now, it's great for backing up close. I would never back up that close without it!
My friends BMW has a cool display that shows you what the sensors are seeing, kind of like a fish finder.
But beeping annoys the heck out of me for some reason..

Don’t feel bad… I geeked on it a while too.

Oh when I'm backing up normally (without the trailer) it shows me on the screen with a square around the item that's causing it to beep.
I think I can also go into one of the menus in the navigation screen and turn on/off grid lines and on/off beeping
EDIT: Nope, I can only turn on/off camera, grid lines, and warning symbols

You can. I can back right up to my trailer coupler. And, when something disappears under the bumper thats right where it is.
Power steering flush, if you haven't done it before I would use 1 gallon, after that if you do it annually it takes about 3 quarts to start coming out clear. Do it cold

Mounted the el cheapo kayak racks that won't seem to die, and are headed out for the first ride of the season. Hope the river is fast because after last night's scotch(s) and beer(s) I don't feel that athletic.

i thought the power steering fluid was the same as our transmission fluid? i usually lose my power steering when parking. Bought a new pump, need to install..
noooo, basically power steering fluid is mostly mineral oil
are you sure it is the pump going out? usually the rack n pinion seals go bad and it spits it out there
Something ain't right. That’s how I do it on both of mine. Doesn’t matter if the trailer is already hooked up or not. Step 1 for me is to turn off the park distance control and then step 2 is to use the top button for the DIC controls on the dash to clear the message and go back to the odometer or whatever other thing I want to monitor. Wonder if the BT Dieselworks stuff is interfering for you.
Edit: saw you got it sorted. I assumed you were already pressing the DIC button. Lol.
that doesn't look to bad.
I don't really remember what I used for the center, something laying around the shop, I think it might have been a wood handle paint brush cut to length and jammed in there. lol.
I was thinking making the light come on for the exhaust shop to see and warranty the part out.

Mine will sense when I have my trailer snd automatically disable the park assistance.

washed it a couple days ago cause I needed the 40% chance of rain to actually happen.
Then today I changed the oil since the DoD swap. Little bit of break in oil was still left in there I guess. Also I love the 60 lbs of oil pressure now haha.

no, just figured the pump was a bit cheaper than a rack and i might as well kinda thing. Glad you set me straight on the steering fluid!

Ooohhh. im so dumb, i read your post several times figuring i was missing something! yep
I misread your post, thought it was leaking while parked, having a brain fart today
did you do the flush where you suck the res dry, take the return line off it, plug the reservoir. then fill it with fresh fluid, jack the wheels up and turn the wheel right and left with the engine off till clear fluid comes out?
I've not done this yukon cause it doesn't have a pump but I did the c6 cause that thing murders powerstering fluid even with the optional cooler. it took like a qt and a half, the Tahoe system must be huge to run a gal thru
I finally got around to changing plugs and wires on this thing. it ran fine but looking at the plugs and wires, I think they might have been original. don't look bad for 146k on them, but since I only got it last year, if they have 30k on them, not great lol. they looked worse than I expected for how smooth it ran.
idles a bit smoother
