    There seem to be a couple different kinds with secondary cables branching out. I'm not entirely sure which to buy. 04 Tahoe LT

    Plug and play harness for Sony 7" screen?

    Recently got broken into and had my Sony screen taken. The 2 original radio harnesses and antenna are still there, I bought a new screen and I'm hoping I can do a plug and play job. I don't have the OnStar box, im not sure if that makes a difference. Is there an adapter that plugs into the OEM...

    Alternator seemingly died, then back to life?

    Update, changed the alt, everything works fine. Voltage is good. Im hearing a whining sound now that increases with my RPM. I did not change the belt but it wasn't in bad condition, I might just change the tensioner and belt soon, might as well have them last as long as possible. Also, my...

    Alternator seemingly died, then back to life?

    New battery, bought it last month. Came down to a dead truck, jumped it, was very sluggish. Drove it around, battery gauge was going into the 12-13 area when I was off the gas, had to keep driving to keep it at 14. After a few minutes of driving in circles in my neighborhood, the dash lights...

    0.020A draw, battery dying, any ideas?

    Thanks for the help everyone, I'm just going to start back at square 1 and went Autozone to get my battery replaced under warranty. Starts noticeably stronger now, obviously. The old battery had been drained down to 3V on several occasions because my dash camera is plugged into the hot cig...

    0.020A draw, battery dying, any ideas?

    Another thing I have noticed over the last couple days is Ill start the truck just fine, drive 5-10 minutes, turn it off, do whatever I have to do for 10-20 minutes or so, go to start it and its either a hickup or dead completely. How?

    0.020A draw, battery dying, any ideas?

    Without pulling any fuses, I am getting 20mA of draw which I am reading is pretty normal. My battery is less than a year old, it dies after 1 - 1.5 days sitting. Alternator is 14.2 I am going to start pulling fuses but just wondering if anyone had any ideas first I have removed the cluster...

    How to get rid of OnStar?

    Having a parasitic draw problem, reading online about pulling the DIC fuse which I did, we'll see if my truck is dead tomorrow even with the fuse gone. I lost my speedo/everything when I pulled the fuse so do you know how to remove onstar in another way other than just the fuse? Thanks

    Best way to play music from iPhone with stock radio?

    My cool 7" Sony screen got stolen, went ahead and put the old radio back in. Anyone know the best way to just listen to music with my iPhone? Havent needed to look into that ever since I got the truck because that screen was one of the very first things I did. Thanks

    Is it normal for temps to rise during a long idle?

    As far as no leaks I was refrrring to the coolant from the reservoir, water pump, hoses, thermostat. I don’t have pressure readings. But yeah I was on asphalt and I guess the idling fan doesn’t push enough air on a hot day just sitting around for that long. I took a trip around the block at...

    Is it normal for temps to rise during a long idle?

    It was like 90-95 today. I had the AC on after a drive and was sitting in my car for about 20-30 minutes waiting for a friend. AC on. After 20-30 minutes the AC was a little warmer and my gauge barely started creeping past 210. I went around the block and brought it back down, AC cooled off...

    Popping when turning slowly

    Only ones left would be the lower control arms, which are the hardest to get to. My front suspension is almost all brand new. The lower control arm ball joints are the one thing I haven't gotten to

    Popping when turning slowly

    Bump for any other ideas. Thanks. Lower ball joints look fine on the outside, no cracks, rips, leaks etc.

    Pulling after 3 alignments

    Any other ideas? Tired of fighting this thing for the last 3 years. I just changed my intermediate shaft too.

    Popping when turning slowly

    The lower control arms seem to be one of the only things I haven't touched, I will go and take another look at the ball joints today

    Parasitic draw test reading 0, help.

    the Klein wasn’t getting a reading. My dads old fluke is showing 2.5 amps. Turns out it’s my ignition cylinder. You can accidentally bump it without the key, and the dash lights come on. If you aren’t paying attention when you get out of the car it’ll draw heavily. Solved, thanks for the help.

    Parasitic draw test reading 0, help.

    Occasionally coming across a dead battery overnight. The battery is a few months old, the alternator is about a year old. Turning the truck on, I go down to 10.03 volts, then 13.85 when it's on. Off, I get 12.04 volts. This was just after I found it dead and jumped it, so I might have to...

    Popping when turning slowly

    The popping happens during the turn and also at full lock, while im creeping forward or backwards. Theres no feeling in the steering wheel, just a noise ahead of me. I also dont have a CV shaft on this truck. The sway bushings were lubed during the initial install, but I havent touched them...

    "Check oil level" Was extremely low

    I got this dash warning, went out to check and only the tip of the stick was coated. Couldn't believe it. I do have an oil leak, but the mechanic told me its minor and I dont actually lose any significant amount of oil. Basically above the drain plug, the metal is slightly coated with a bit of...
