    Error codes and gear issues 2009 Y Denali

    Hmm...Interesting, I thought the L9H was only in the pick-up trucks. Kinda negates what I said then if that's what you have. It's still worth checking the plug condition on the misfiring cylinders tho.

    Error codes and gear issues 2009 Y Denali

    This may be way off track since I haven't heard your vehicle running so you'll have to judge that for yourself, but I recently did the AFM delete because of a lifter failure. When it happened the Service Stabilitrak and Traction Control lights/messages came on due to the misfiring it caused. I...

    New Purchase of 2013 - How do I turn off AFM?

    Just to add to what the others said, turning it off is no guarantee. Had mine disabled on my 2013 Burb since 50,000 and last week at 102,000 one of the lifters compressed catastrophically while on the highway. You’ll know if/when it happens because it’s the worst valve tick you ever heard in...

    Denali stuck in 2 inches of snow

    Might be totally talking out my rear, but I'm pretty sure the AWD system is using open diffs and relying on the antilock brake system to mitigate spin. If that's the case, just apply a little light brake pressure to redistribute the torque until you get moving. That technique used to work on...

    Console USB

    I use an iPad for audio/video via the USB connection and for a non-nav vehicle, it works like this -- first, I let iTunes start playing a song, then I pause it via the radio, not the iPad. Then I start whatever app I'm going to use (Netflix, Hulu, Pandora, etc.), once the song or track info...

    Add backup camera to 2014 Tahoe SSV

    Seems unlikely. Pretty sure that the '12V' printed on the harness tag is indicating 12 volts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Add backup camera to 2014 Tahoe SSV

    You lost me. X413 is a separate connection that is routed along the main body harness adjacent to where the liftgate harness attaches. If it was there, then all you needed to do was plug the UVC portion of the liftgate harness you purchased into it. If it was not there, aside from the camera...

    Add backup camera to 2014 Tahoe SSV

    After studying the wiring diagram for the camera circuit a bit, there appear to be three connection points in the chassis. Connector X421, which is what you found at the C pillar. (It's not clear to me in the photo, does the camera wiring terminate there? Or is it connected to another...

    Add backup camera to 2014 Tahoe SSV

    On my 2013 Suburban, the wiring does go down the driver's side A-pillar, but then crosses along the instrument panel harness to the passenger side kick panel. There's a separate plug there where it connects to the body harness just to the left of the main body harness plug. Might be the same...

    New System Options

    This is not for everybody of course, but there's always the tablet approach using the stock radio, etc. I've done this in my last couple vehicles and it works great for navigation, music, etc. Just depends if you're bothered by the appearance I suppose. My setup is reasonably clean and when...
