Replying to: grampa2 (Aug 24, 2009 5:06 am) I disconnected my battery for about 10 hrs. After reconnecting it my factory alarm went off like it did previous times in the middle of the nite. Took about 1 hr after being reconnected before it went off again. Anybody know who to contact about a factory alarm. GMC dealers want $100 to check it out. Trying to save some money if it is something simple.

#329 of 358 2004 SS Turn signals by 2004ssguy Aug 31, 2009 (9:48 pm)
I have a 2004 SS and the left turn signal won't work sometimes. It won't light up any of the lights even the dash and is very sparatic. Won't ever do it when it's in the shop. I have already but in a new turn signal switch which changed nothing. Sometimes you can hear a really clicking really fast. Help

I have a 2003 GMC SIERRA PU. Security Alarm will go off anytime. I have tried to disconnect the battery and for a period of time, but still sounds off anytime. Has anybody had this problem and how did you fix it?

Replying to: arkpaul (Dec 04, 2007 6:27 pm) I have had the same problem for years and recently it is much worse. Did you ever get any help on this subject? I tried a bypass module, but when I called the manufacture for DIY help they told me their product is not a solution to get around the engine immobilization, i.e. fuel pump shuts down. They said mom & pop alarm shops usualy have a "creative" way around this problem, but I can't find anyone locally that knows how to jump around the system to this problem so it goes away for good.   Thanks! Help from anyone else would be greatly appreciated too. Replies to this message: himie (Sep 21, 2009 2:11 pm)

Replying to: jeh4 (Jan 02, 2008 1:58 pm) I have the same problem, it is in your tilt steering column not the fuses or headlights, I have not broken it down yet to find the answer that is why I looked to here to see if anyone had similar problems, if you raise your tilt all the way up they should come on intermittently, I am not sure if it is a wire degraded from the strain of being bent back & forth or it has some type of contacts since the travel is extensive, but I have had to jar the steering column sometimes to get it to temporarily work, I hope this at least points you in the right direction, I will let you know if I find the permanent fix, is seems it is a common problem with that design & is used in numerous GM vehicles
