if it didn't happen till the battery, might be worth that while pull the cables and touch them together for a while and hope it resets? I have not done it, but seen posts that it works sometimes. or a scanner with a reset option
What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

yep def try a recalibration first. when the new battery is installed it may just correct it's self, default from power loss is 74/auto
I don't think I would go on that long a trip in that weather with a leaky radiator.

Is there a tool needed to disconnect the cooler lines?
Christ you failed to mention that! Fix it!!!!
Just a pick tool. Don't let that clip go flying be careful.
Good old Rantoul; my uncle was a magistrate there and I have lots of relatives all around that area. When Chanute AFB was active, I had responsibility ('83 or so) for the cable television system on base. My dad was born about 10 miles SE of Rantoul and would tell stories about hearing (at home) the military firing up and testing the jet engines.

I put a rag over it when I pull the clips with a pick, otherwise you'll never see them again. That said, the new radiator should come with new clips pre-installed. Then all you have to do is press the barbed lines into them until they click. Easy peasy.

There is a tool made to disconnect them, but you can use a pick like mentioned above, or a small eyeglass screwdriver to undo the wire clip from around the fitting. Once off, the line should just pull out. Also watch out for that clip to go flying when removing it.
When assembling, put the wire clip on the fitting first, then just push the line into it and it will "click" when secured.
These are what it looks like
That was a good call. I spent several winters in the frozen north of NoDak and Montana as well. One of them was one of the coldest winters on record. I'll see if I can find the pictures of how the wind packed the engine compartment of my old Toyota with snow. The base temperature was -35ºF with a 40 mph wind on top of it. I distinctly remember weather forecasters claiming wind chills of -90ºF in Bowbells, ND, where I was located at the time. Nothing moved without a block heater in that weather unless you left it running all night. Every year, people would die within a few hundred yards of their homes. They'd run off the road or their driveway in a ground blizzard and set out on foot trying to get home. When they never made it, rescuers would find them frozen to death in their own yards. Winter storms there are seriously hazardous.
the couple of times I have considered going there once for the con-agra job and researching oil jobs it became a hard no, I like mild weather the cold I can probably deal with somewhat but that wind chill is a no way. I worked one summer up in Alaska which was not bad at all for Salmon season, they wanted me to come back for crab season in the winter that was a hard pass also especially after the boat had caught fire and we were almost going to abandon ship and heard them telling story's of how the end of the ship broke off the previous winter. kind of makes you think twice especially when both inudustries are dangerous already.
pick works as already mentioned just try and keep a grip on those clips with another plier of something, they tend to vanish into never never land if they pop off suddenly I have lost 2 or 3 them before

Thanks! so when i put the new battery in, it was acting stupid, so my 20 minute drive to a job site was super comfortable. heat on my side, 10* from the outside on the pass side. Coming back home, i had to kinda floor it on the highway to merge into traffic and shortly after i noticed it had gotten REALLY hot in the cabin, i put the vents to face level and sure as shit, the pass side is blowing hot again! so maybe it just took some driving to reset it but thats good. it was much comfortable on the way home. This afternoon we hit a high of 18, warmest its been since friday, and 6 times warmer then yesterday with a high of 6.
Whew! Gotta keep the wife comfortable or there's gonna be hell to pay.
was driving the wife's 16 suburban around town this afternoon, man that thing needs sound insulation my Denali is so much quieter
it's actually kind of annoying how much sound passes thru especially from the back, sounds like holding a cardboard tube up to your ear.
GM made the metal thinner and paint thinner on them and I know the Denali has a sound insulation package but there is a noticeable difference for sure.
It's not from the reported "buffering" some have it is just outside noise.
