    Sound System silent when cold

    Wow, not one response in 2 and a half years. What a dead forum. Anyway, maybe some other person has a similar problem and this will help him. After tolerating this for a few years now, I decided to put my mind to it and make it a project. I removed the bucket from the center console so I could...

    My trailer lights are not working

    I checked the ground pin on the connector and it is good, but I have no power on the brown wire. I do have power on the yellow and green wires on the connector. I assume that the tow package connector with its wire harness is on its own circuit and I also assume that it has one or more fuses. It...

    My trailer lights are not working

    On my 2004 Tahoe with 5.3 ltr engine I have NO power on the brown wire of the trailer connector underneath the rear bumper of the Tahoe. Blinkers and brake lights work fine on the trailer but no running tail lights. Everything works fine on the Tahoe. I doubt that it is a wiring problem but...

    Sound System silent when cold

    I have a 2004 Tahoe with a 6-CD OEM radio which worked fine all summer. Now that temps are going down to near freezing all of a sudden the entire sound system is dead when I start out in the morning, not a peep. The system is Bose and I don't think it is the radio, because it has power and...

    My 2004 Tahoe throws a P0443 code

    My 2004 Tahoe throws a P0443 code intermittently. I know it has something to do with the EVAP system. Can anybody be a little more specific and may have an idea what I should look for? Thanks

    wanted 2001 tahoe radio

    The part number on my radio is 10359577. tlynch, what is yours? Won't we have a problem swapping radios, because that is the whole problem with these GM radios, they need to be programmed to a specific VIN in order to do anything

    wanted 2001 tahoe radio

    What am I missing here. I looked into it myself, miky2001, tlynch. I checked Best Buy and Crutchfield and there is more to it than just 79 bucks. There is at least another 100 bucks in installation and wiring kits and even then you are lucky if only half of all the functions and features still...

    Sound system cutting out

    By the way, where is the Bose box. I assume that there is a unit installed somewhere in my Tahoe that produces the Bose sound other than the speakers in the car. I want to check all the connections and make sure that the problem is not with the Bose system, especially now that it is doing...

    2004 Tahoe Transmission Fluid and Filter Change

    I am planning on doing a transmission service on my 2004 Tahoe LT, 5.3 ltr. flex V-8 with 143000 miles on it and I am unsure what to order. Can anybody tell me the model number of the trans in my Tahoe? What fluid should I use? It says Dexron-III, just to confirm is that correct? But my biggest...

    Sound system cutting out

    There is just no way beating this or coming out ahead, no matter what option I take. The engineers at GM must have spend days just trying to figure out how to thoroughly screw the public with this radio locking BS. The best option would be to get a hopefully good unit on ebay and there are maybe...

    Sound system cutting out

    Thanks Mack. How is the sound? I was always told that the sound of flash drives, ipods or iphones is crappy because of heavy file compression during recording

    Sound system cutting out

    I know, I know, everybody says that, but I am very partial to my CDs and I appreciate the 6 CD changer in my current radio. I will look into it though! Thanks

    Sound system cutting out

    It's been almost a year now and I have not done anything about my bum radio. It has gotten worse and maybe it's easier now to pin point the possible problems. I have no FM stations. The CD player cuts out after a while, but the AM band works fine all the time. When the CD player cuts out I bang...

    Sound system cutting out

    My 2004 Chevrolet Tahoe OEM GMC 2003-2005 Radio AM FM 6 Disc CD with Aux Input is acting up. For about a year or so I have been having problems with the radio and CD player. It started gradually and now it happens all the time after about 5 minutes of playtime. Problem #1: After about 5 minutes...
