Try pulling the fuse - see the How to Remove a Stuck CD guide. If you can't find the fuse, removing the negative battery cable for a few minutes may reset it too.

DeerSlayer2,
I have a 96 Suburban and I need to replace the HVAC fan, I read that you had some problems, any advise on how to remove the fan and fan shroud? It seems like its pretty tought to get to the fastner that holds the shroud on? Is there a special tool? Any help is a lot of help.

I have a rattle that sounds like it is coming from the front left. I think I can feel a sensation through the sterring wheel. I know it's not this - but, it sounds and feels like the wheel is loose. I have a 2005 Tahoe with approx. 26,000 miles. Is this the steering column problem that has been discussed? Thanks.

That's what it felt like on my 2005 Yukon XL, and there was also a noticeable knocking sound when turning or on bumpy roads. It was the intermediate steering shaft and a left front suspension cross member, both covered under warranty. Happened right about 30K miles. I was impressed at how much better if felt when fixed - very smooth and quiet. Hopefully you are still covered by warranty.
 
From what I gathered from various online sources, for the first couple of years that this problem was known, GM would either simply lube the piece, or replace it with an identical piece that was equally prone to failure at a later date. Then they actually redesigned the part a couple years ago, and that is what I got. Hopefully it will last the life of the vehicle.

Thanks for your response. I think this is my problem exactly. I have an appointment with the dealer to get it fixed day after tomorrow. Thanks again.

"running out of gas" by martyr572000

My 04 z71 tahoe has started to "run out of gas" even when it's got plenty in the tank. When I changed the fuel filter underneath on the drivers side, I tried to blow thruogh the old one and couldn't. I figured the new one would solve the problem but 20 miles down the road the engine shut down again. It started back up after a few minutes only to shut down after another 15-20 miles (and so on for the next 80 miles home.
I need help, advice,or a grenade. Any suggestions on what to check next?

Check fuel pump pressure. The clogged filter may have taken it out.

Has anybody figured this out. I do think my hubby tried the battery and fuse options. NO good. It just clicks and clicks and doesn't pop out. Tried taking face plate off, but there is no little hole to stick a pin in to manually eject it.

Bad battery, oh yeah transmission as well by ndmatte

I have an 07 Tahoe, purchased OCT 06. I had planned to take it to the dealer this past Monday for Oil, tire rotation and check out what I believed was slipping in the transmission on start. Making a long story short, as I was coming home on Sunday night, I accelerated from a stop at a red light. Normal acceleration, nothing hard and at 30-35 mph, bang and thatt was all she wrote. Lost all forward drive. After pulling over, I discovered that I had reverse and could only go forward in first gear. 2,3, and D nothing. I searched tahoe trannys on the web from my phone and found this site. Sorry I am not the only one with this same story. Good news. Roadside assistance is spot on. Within 1 hour, my tahoe had been towed to the nearest dealer.

Gee, what a surprise! Another failed transmission on a new GM SUV. As I have said many times on this forum.....they don't build 'em like they used to. Oh sure, they give you DVD, Nav, Bose stereo, fold up power seats, heated mirrors, leather seats, expensive wheels and tires, big buck clear coat paint jobs, etc but somewhere along the line GM forgot that most SUV buyers would like to have a dependable vehicle that starts and stops and can do some work on occaision. And a vehicle where the transmissions and fuel pumps actually perform like they should. Dream on.
