Need some help with my truck

[CMYZ28]

Thanks I'll give them a call.

Anyone heard of Hill Auto Electric in Redford? I was also recommended to give them a call and its MUCH closer to me.



What am I looking at here? Truck has a top post battery on it.

It's a manual battery disconnect vs unbolting the terminal while it's sitting. Band aid fix.

Not a fix . It’s used for parasitic draw testing on side post . Most gm are side sorry. Didn’t know it was a top post

Solar battery charger fixed my mothers car that sat all the time

Unless its a deep cycle battery you can only draw down a lead battery (down to 5 volts or less) about 4 times. After that its scrap....

I dropped it off at Hill auto electric. I’ll let you know how it turns out. The other place was just too far.

The last thing I want to do right now is look for a car in this market!

Just picked it up from the shop.

Turned out the rear air suspension dump valve was cycling and drawing current intermittently. He said he could hear it clicking.

That's a nice find. Props to that shop!

It isn't leaking or anything is it?

I don't think so. Sounds like the valve is hanging up. It may be leaking some air but its just the leveling system. I have an appointment to have the frag grenade taken out of my dashboard (Takata Airbag recall) in a couple weeks, ill have the stealership see if its an easy fix. Right now its just disabled.
