    Electrical Issue is Expanding

    The only stupid questions are those that aren't asked. The battery was fresh off the charger both before this latest go around again overnight before I started testing again yesterday. This isn't to say that there isn't an internal short (which would explain a lot) however the voltage is good...

    Electrical Issue is Expanding

    I had posted in a couple of threads regarding an intermittent short/open circuit on my 06 Tahoe. http://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/intense-electrical-issue.92892/page-2#post-1113447 http://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/heres-a-weird-one.89340/page-5#post-1113443 Bumps in the road would...

    Here's a weird one...

    Thanks for that. I'll have to get into this on a whole other level as the condition has become worse. The intermittent connection now appears to be permanent. After being away for two weeks and the truck parked, attempting to start it resulted in nothing. As if the battery was disconnected. Then...

    Intense Electrical Issue

    So, among other things, I've added a section of #10 AWG wire from the stud on the firewall to a solid grounding point on the engine block. This would completely replace the OEM strap if that is the problem. The condition still exists. That said, it's severity has been reduced to what it once was...

    Here's a weird one...

    Hello all. I've posted in the forum regarding a similar condition. The bumpy road being the initiator as is the case here. Seeing as the solution in the OP's situation was a poor ground, are you able to say exactly which ground it was? The rear of the engine at the firewall is where I've...

    Intense Electrical Issue

    Having gone through the easily accessible connections like the battery, power tap on the positive battery cable, engine block ground (left front of the block near the oil pan rail), there was no change. The only ground on the rear of the block that I could find was the typical braided strap from...

    Intense Electrical Issue

    I had done a search here (and on the web in general) a few months back but couldn't find anything that matched what I've described. This is why I've posed the question here. My hope is a shortcut to the solution. That said, your advice regarding checking the battery connections and grounds is on...

    Intense Electrical Issue

    Here's one for you: While driving, passing over rough roads (as in a pot hole or rutted gravel roads) will result in the truck experiencing what seems to be a complete electrical failure. It's instantaneous in that, the door locks will change position, the information centre will reset some...
