2009 Yukon XL Denali Bose/XM/NAV issues
If you mean the vehicle battery , its unlikely because it's new. If you are hinting that there's a separate battery internal/external to the nav/radio, please point me in the direction of its location. Thanks for the reply.- VooDoo73

2009 Yukon XL Denali Bose/XM/NAV issues
There may be a thread out there regarding this issue, since it seems to be a design issue. The problem I'm having is - after setting time, navigation destinations and possibly other programmed info.. once the truck is turned off and is started up after a few minutes, the unit fails to save the...- VooDoo73

Is there an alternate port to plug into OBD2 ?
edzaar.. I checked fuses..they were good, but no power to the OBDII port.. So just for the heck of it I changed fuses to the lighter and Aux pwr... Guess what...the power to the port was restored and the scanner fired right up.. Thank you so much.. Now all I need to do Is find out why my match...- VooDoo73

Is there an alternate port to plug into OBD2 ?
Great info.. I lost my pin layout for the '96-up.. and of course the OBD1 assignments that I do have are useless to me.. I'll check this out in the daylight tomorrow. Thanks, ezdaar!- VooDoo73

Is there an alternate port to plug into OBD2 ?
The lighter works.. but the aux power outlets flanking it don't..the fuse isn't blown though. The mechanic was able to link up using an Autel MaxiDAS DS708 I think (it looks similar if it isn't).. I'm using an Actron Auto Scanner Plus 9580.- VooDoo73

Is there an alternate port to plug into OBD2 ?
I tried connecting my OBD2 reader after the mechanic failed to set my cam sensor.. Now my reader won't link to the truck..I mean it doesen't even see a vehicle connected.. I know it works: 1 it's new..2 it linked to my wife's car with no problem. I'll assume the mechanic damaged the OBD2...- VooDoo73

Camshaft position sensor not setting..
I'm reading RPM's on the tach so I'd assume the crank position sensor(CKP) is functional..- VooDoo73

Camshaft position sensor not setting..
Well..after getting a rebuilt set of heads on the 'ol girl not much has been going right.. The cam position sensor wouldn't set to clear the service engine light off the cluster and I had a tire blow out on the hwy(not related to the cam).. I was told by the mechanic that it's likely a bad cam...- VooDoo73

Ressetting a camshaft position sensor...
I wound up upgrading to a Summit aluminum distributor.. Waiting for my next oil change to get the cam position sensor set. You need a 'computer' to do it..no way around it.. I just don't like bringing the old girl up to 4000 rpm to do it- regardless of how smooth she's running.. -
AC/Heater Fan control
Check ebay too... you can find some new/used ones listed most of the time..just make sure you buy the right one for your year/vehicle.. I think '96-'99 are the same..'95 had different connections from what I recall.. Yukon will fit, but not Denali/Escalade.- VooDoo73

AC/Heater Fan control
@ atis... Oh yeah, that's the relay pack next to the 'knuckle mangler' AKA blower motor resistor.. $120 seems to be the average cost, but in the heat of the summer it's worth every cent..- VooDoo73

Ressetting a camshaft position sensor...
Makes sense. thx for the link too..Seeing the gap jump is pretty neat..Pull another wire down the firing order and it's a poor man's displacement on demand..lol Comet you truely are a wealth of information. -
Ressetting a camshaft position sensor...
Guessing the 'dizzy' is the distributor..(haven't heard that one if it is). I was under the impression that unlike the older points distributors where you can advance and retard by rotating, the newer computer controlled engines self adjust regardless of position?... I unfortunately do not have... -
Ressetting a camshaft position sensor...
I blew a head gasket a couple of weeks ago and would up with water in the crankcase.. I didn't realize the gasket failed until 3 days later since there was no smoke out of the pipe and I falsely diagnosed a loose hose clamp as the reason I was losing coolant. It wasn't until I noticed the... -
AC/Heater Fan control
Comet and all..Sorry for the huge delay in posting an outcome from my issue a while back. Since then I had a tire blowout, a heater hose fiting crack off in my intake, and just a week ago a head gasket fail leaking coolant outside and unfortunately for my wallet inside so it got into my...- VooDoo73
