#142 of 145 Re: 2004 GMC Envoy [2004envoy] by ldwyer Feb 07, 2009 (11:25 pm)
Replying to: 2004envoy (Jan 27, 2009 6:07 am) Well it looks like I am about to sing the same old song. I bought a 2002 envoy in November and the four wheel drive light is on when it is cold,, When the light is on the four wheel drive doesn't work. But it goes off when the car has been running for a while, I shut it off and then turn it back on. But I am also having this starting problem that everybody is talking about. All of the lights go on but nothing else happens. I have never had it take more than ten minutes but I don't want to wait around and see what happens. I took the truck to the dealer I bought it from who sent it out to a GMC dealer, they had it for over two weeks, told me they were going to report the rental that they gave me stolen because I wasn't twenty five ( an entirely different fiasco) and I go to pick the car up and the light was still on! As though they didn;t even turn it on after they "fixed it" so the dealer I sent it to spent a ton of money to have the transfer case fixed at the GMC dealer and it didn't do a damn thing. But I don't have the time to go back and forth to the dealer (over and over) for this car...I am honeslty scared now for the stalling problems to start (the car only has about 65,000) miles on it. Please let us know if you get any farthur with GMC. Otherwise I'll just take a loss ( i did finance the car) and get something else.
#143 of 145 Instrument Cluster Going Crazy/Power Keeps Shutting Off by mooncet Jun 18, 2009 (3:59 pm)
Hey guys. Two months ago I bought a 2005 GMC Envoy XL (not SLT/no security system), 4.2 Liter, In-line 5.   A couple weeks ago the Passlock light on the instrument cluster came on. A day later, all of the lights on the instrument cluster started going on and off at random (just really going crazy), and all the gauges stopped working. This kept happening intermittently over the next couple days. I'd go a half the day with no problem, and then non-stop problems the rest of the day. Just totally random.   We took it to our mechanic who replaced the ignition switch and sent us home. It started happening again just a couple hours later. We called our mechanic, and he told us it had to be the Body Control Module.   In the meantime, we had started having problems with the power shutting down completely on the vehicle while driving it. Usually when slowing down or accelerating rapidly. This seems to happen right at the same time all instrument cluster starts going nuts.   We took the Envoy to a GMC dealer service center, replaced the Body Control Module, and had them program it. I took it off the lot, and the power shut down halfway down the road to the freeway. I took it straight back. They said they found a wire that was not properly grounded near the body control module. They said they fixed it, and sent me home again.   That evening, I left to go to the store and the exact same thing happended as before...Passlock code, crazy instrument cluster lights, engine died.   We took it back to the GM service center. They say they can't figure out what the problem is. The power actually shut down as we pulled into the garage. We showed them when we got it to start back up all the lights going on and off (flickering). They've had it all day now, and they say they can't get it to act up again to test it.   Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this? We've now had our car in and out of shops for almost 2 weeks, and we've spent close to $1,000 fixing and replacing things that haven't solved the problem at all. We're just about out of money, and this is our only car. I would really appreciate any suggestions.   I've looked around online, and seen plenty of people complaining about the same problem, not just with Envoys either. But I can't find many that have any suggestions. The only ones I've seen with any regularity are: Ignition Switch (which we tried), Body Control Module (which we tried), and Cam Positioning Sensor (which the GMC mechanic says he doesn't think it is).   Help!!!!!   Thank you,   Mooncet   By the way, the only other thing we've noticed is that moving the middle row seat (which happens to be right above the Body Control Module) seems to make it worse. It happens even when no ones touching it, but it happens more when someone is. I pointed this out to the GMC mechanic, and he tested it out when we first brought it back this morning. He folded it forward, and wiggled it back and forth, and it caused the instrument cluster lights to fluctuate. I'm sure that this has to be part of the problem.
#144 of 145 Back Tail Lights by kam2002 Jun 21, 2009 (12:46 pm)
I have a 2002 Envoy, the back lights stay on, even when you cut the car off. What should I do to fix this?   It drains the battery really quick! Please I need help to fix this problem, I am unemployed and have to fix it myself.   Thank you for your help in advance!   Kathy
#145 of 145 2002 Envoy low operating temperature by tmrut0211 Dec 03, 2009 (10:22 am)
My daughter has an '02 Envoy that has the MIL on. This code reflects low operating temperature. My scanner shows an operating temperature of between 174-178 degrees. My question is, is this considered low? If so, this would be a thermostat problem. If not, it could be a sensor problem. Has anyone else had this experience?
