    Add a quart or let it ride another two weeks?

    I’m not a mechanic by any means just a guy that likes to DIY and tanker but is this a pretty good sign for our engine with high miles?

    I got about 187K miles on my 2014 Tahoe due for an oil change in about 600 miles. I’m thinking I’m a little bit low here. What do you guys think? This was after driving around and than letting it sit for abiut a hour.

    Battery dying over night

    Let me know if I can run any tests with a multimeter. That’s all I got at the moment. Any thing more probably need to go into the shop.

    Battery dying over night

    That math makes total sense on paper, and it’s a relief to know the numbers should technically align. I’m definitely trying to wrap my head around why it's acting the way it is. The main reason I’m looking closely at the alternator/voltage regulator side of things is a weird glitch I've been...

    Battery dying over night

    As some of you know I currently have my aftermarket audio remote/trigger wire pinned into the switched accessory power at the X14 block under the dash, and it works perfectly. I want to move my dash cam off the constant-on cigarette outlets so it stops draining my battery when parked. This is...

    Battery dying over night

    Thanks for the advice, Fless. I actually checked the status lights on both the amp and the LOC after the truck sits, and they completely shut down and stay dark, so I'm fairly confident the audio gear isn't staying awake. I also prepped the chassis grounds down to bare shined metal with a wire...

    Battery dying over night

    So the ground to my LOC here is grounded to a bolt in the kick panel. It doesn’t look cleaned up, but I cleaned it up on the back with a file to get bare metal now this might not be a reliable location? I don’t know if this was my issue. And then photo three and four here is where I have the...

    Battery dying over night

    I want to walk through the timeline of what happened leading up to the battery failure. But first I was able to successfully warranty the battery at Walmart with no issues and swapped it right in the parking lot. After installing it, I ran a battery and alternator load test using my Harbor...

    Battery dying over night

    Hey everyone, I’m running into a frustrating overnight battery drain on my Tahoe (factory Bose, non-touchscreen, UQA RPO code) and could use some insight from anyone familiar with how these GMT900 trucks handle their electrical networks. The Setup: Subs/Box: CT Sounds Tropo dual 10”...

    Planning Dual 12" Rockville Install: Can I bypass Bose "Bass Choke" without a full rewire?

    Hey yall i I was wondering why at lower volume so I could hear like a radio static kind of noise. Kind of like an irregular whine. Someone said I could try separating my RCA cables from my power cables and also moving the LC2i ground to the same ground as my amp

    I think we can call it a day… for now. I’ll be back!! Probably do tweeters or the mid drivers in the doors next. Wanted to do all kickers speakers, but I don’t know if they make two ohm kicker mid range drop in speakers

    Update had to run the remote wire from the terminal block to the LC2i remote in and then run another remote wire from the remote out on the LC to the amp now I got both with power Thanks Grok Ai

    Planning Dual 12" Rockville Install: Can I bypass Bose "Bass Choke" without a full rewire?

    Hey, I guess I got a little too excited there… It’s triggering power to the LC but it’s not turning on my amp. I got a weak blue light on my amp. It’s not a bright blue light.

    Ok those are safe to use on that harness? Those are the ones I have had troubles with in the past. I think it was cause I was using the wrong size though maybe. What size wire is it do you know by chance from when you did it?
