    Where are the ground points?

    Well, the work I did didn’t work. My son in law said it started doing it again. Ugh. Sounds like another trip to the dealership with the TSB’s in hand.

    Where are the ground points?

    Good to know! Thanks! Makes me wonder why two different dealers didn’t know to check for a TSB…

    Where are the ground points?

    I was referring to the frame grounds - one behind each front wheel

    Where are the ground points?

    So I my daughter lives in a different state. I did the work while we were out visiting. Initially I thought removing the dash panel would have been a lot more extensive but this video proves otherwise. Just got home so I didn’t have a chance to go after this particular ground point. I...

    Where are the ground points?

    I used Fluid Film

    Where are the ground points?

    On both sides, there was a small nut welded on; the bolts were not self tapping. This is on a 2015 Tahoe so maybe that’s why it’s different from a Silverado or a Sierra. Similar but different.

    Where are the ground points?

    Well…I put a new battery in, cleaned the two frame grounds by the front wheels, and the one for the ground strap on the firewall. The one on the frame on the passenger side was covered with grease and gunk. The one on the pillar was beyond my pay grade with trying to take that whole dash trim...

    Where are the ground points?

    Also, this has the power running boards. Looks like the ground is in a slightly different location (I’m cleaning it off now)

    Where are the ground points?

    Thanks. Working on access to the ground on the A pillar. I have the pillar cover off but it’s not obvious how the trim piece or the speaker cover comes off. Any ideas?

    Where are the ground points?

    Here’s a thought - what if we took it back to the dealer and asked them to inspect/clean/tighten all the ground points? I’ve just got a bad feeling that if it’s not that - in combination with a new battery - that it’s gonna get expensive.

    Where are the ground points?

    How accessible are the ones on the frame? I’d be doing this in a garage and not on a lift.

    Where are the ground points?

    Agree on not throwing money at it by changing the battery, but at least it’s something to try. Two different dealers in two different states (Michigan and Colorado) have looked at it and have not solved the problem. It might be worth a shot at this point.

    Where are the ground points?

    I’ve searched this forum and also the wider internet but I haven’t found anything that just explicitly says it: where are the ground points on vehicles of this generation? I’m working on a 2015 Tahoe LTZ with strange electrical problems. Taking advice from @Tahoe14 I’m replacing the battery...

    2015 Tahoe LTZ - intermittent IP freaking out and losing power steering

    Worth a shot. But wouldn’t a dealer have the insight to check that out? But to your point, if it’s possible that a battery can check OK but still really be bad, then I guess swapping it out is worth a try. I tried to see how old it was but with that weird assembly that’s on top of it I couldn’t...

    2015 Tahoe LTZ - intermittent IP freaking out and losing power steering

    Understood it’s probably a bad ground, but here’s more insight. I was driving it today and the issue started. Here were the symptoms: -All needles on the IP were bouncing except for the battery gage and the fuel gage -Backlight on the IP would occasionally dim while the needles were bouncing...

    2015 Tahoe LTZ - intermittent IP freaking out and losing power steering

    I should have clarified: battery checks OK and the last dealership we had it to did find a loose ground. It was fine for about three weeks after they worked on it then it started doing the same thing again.

    2015 Tahoe LTZ - intermittent IP freaking out and losing power steering

    Hello, My daughter has a 2015 Tahoe LTZ with around 100k miles that experiences random "freaking out" of the instrument panel - various warning lights come on and the needle gages bounce. On top of that, the power steering goes out. It's been to two different dealers and they cannot duplicate...

    Stream video to rear entertainment system?

    My daughter recently picked up a 2015 Tahoe LTZ with the rear entertainment system. Is there a way to stream video off her iPhone? I would think there might be some sort of adapter that would hook up to the composite inputs on the Tahoe and then to the iPhone? I'm doing the research, just...

    Not yet - still at the dealer LOL. Will do so for sure.

    Power assist steps question

    From what I can see they don’t even try to move; I’m literally at the dealer as we speak and I haven’t dug into it all that deep to see if I can feel or hear them trying to move. But the dealer said he’ll put them in the extended position (he said that’s the way it came in), so that means they...

    Power assist steps question

    Hi, My daughter is considering buying a 2015 Tahoe LTZ. Mileage, condition, and price are decent-to-good. The power assist steps don’t work at all though. The button to the left of the steering wheel says they are extended when they aren’t (they don’t move at all). Understood this may be a...

    Polished aluminum vs. chrome?

    Pearl Premier? Exactly what I have…it’s the best Tahoe I’ve ever had, and I’ve gone through 7 of them in the last 20 years. Love this vehicle!

    Will a dealer swap wheels?

    Dealer did the swap and put the new tires on my old rims. Charged $250 labor but it’s a done deal.
