The Keyless Entry feature on my 2007 Yukon XL has quit working correctly. I've changed to the spare keyfob and made sure that the DIC was programmed to original factory settings. Neither tactic helped. The entrance door must be opened manually......but once inside, the keyfob will actuate the Keyless Entry system (it'll unlock or lock the doors). When I park the Yukon, the Keyfob will lock the doors as I leave......but will fail to unlock the doors if I'm gone for more than a minute or two. In other words, the system fails if I don't use the Keyfob for a minute or two. So long as I actuate the Keyfob every 15-seconds, it'll keep on working. Anybody got ideas?

Replying to: bigchuckwagon (Feb 08, 2008 3:30 pm) Does anyone know if I can get the factory radio to turn on an aftermarket amp. I want to add a subwoofer and have been told I can use a output control converter(line output converter) but what is going to turn on the amp. I have the Bose system so something must turn that amp om. |

Replying to: bigchuckwagon (Feb 08, 2008 3:30 pm) "Tech confirmed failure key fobs using recommendation doc 1861180 put system to sleep removed rcdlr reinstalled fuse retested all OK" I took this info to my dealer and they repaired it--working fine now. One oddity--the service desk person said that they fixed the problem by replacing the remote keyfob--said there were a bad batch of keyfobs and mine was one of those. I don't think this is the case as my other original keyfob is now working whereas it wasn't before the repair. I think the fix is a software configuration thing on the car itself and has nothing to do with the keyfobs--there may be other problems with certain batches of keyfobs, but it's not the cause of this particular issue. Good luck. |

2004 Yukon XL. There seems to be grinding in the rear of the vehicle. It is intermittent and often goes several weeks without surfacing. It usually happens at low speeds and etiher during the first few minutes after driving or after a long drive. This past week, the 4WD Check light has illuminated. Anyone out there with a similar scenario? thanks jt |

Lately, my driver side Seat controls (on our 2003 Yukon XL) are working in reverse. If you press the seat to go forward, it goes back. If i press it to go back, it goes forward. Any advice??? I took it to the dealer, because when it's working properly (not reversing) the seat won't go all the way forward. I originally thought something might be stuck under the seat. The dealer said I need a "seat extender" and that costs $700.00 !!! When the switches are in reverse-mode, the seat does go all the way forward.. .so I know that it can. It's just I never know which way the seat will move, and how far it will go. It's annoying because when I turn the car off, the seat automatically moves back (for easy exiting), and then I lose any good settings I may have had. Has anyone encountered this???? All advice welcome!! |

Replying to: rkg1 (Feb 26, 2008 9:09 am) 1. Homelink not pairing(Could be my model of garage door opener). 2. Radio is on the blink intermittently but off more than on) Dealer said the radio was bad but I am wondering if its the amp because its all sources that won't deliver sound when it drops out. Display works, etc. but no sound. 3. DVD player now won't load 4. Power seat driver does the opposite of what direction I push it in. The driver memo and exit functions seems to work but I am wondering if this 700.00 seat extender is mechanical or electrical. If electrical could it have anything to do with other circuits. In my experience with GM vehicles they seem to tie in a lot of electronics/electricals i.e. "multifunction" switches. The problem is when they go screwy not one but all systems tied in get effected. These are great trucks but they hace issues that are annoying. Maybe why Consumer reports won't recommend even the new beautiful 2007/8

Replying to: fixitrod (Feb 26, 2008 7:44 pm) We also have problems with our DVD player (thought I always assumed it was due to the fact that we put it in aftermarket). Sometimes it won't power on or off and the DVD's are always freezing in it. I do tend to think that the electrical problems are all somehow related..

| Two things: Anyone else disappointed with the poor high beams on this vehicle? Anyone else having the high beams go dead? It's bad enough that the high beams are poor but to switch from low to high only to have pitch black is frightning. This is a Yukon XL Denali but I don't think the lights are any different than a regular Yukon (not like the older Denali's that had the unique projector beam headlights). My older 2005 has much better high beams. Any thoughts on either problem?? | |

Replying to: rkg1 (Mar 03, 2008 11:15 am) I also had a very long conversation with the installer of the current entertainment system In response to my report of the DVD player being on the blink. "By the time one pays for a repair for $50.00 more; maybe a $100 with installation. a new player could be purchased. So I replaced the dying DVD player and head unit with the Alpine set up and used the Metra/Access GMOS-04 to retain all RAP features, chimes. etc.. Stereo is a lot chrisper(more voltage from the aftermarket model) running through the amp. Next step is add a subwoofer to the head unit. I now have to figure out adding the subwoofer |
