We still have onstar in our 2005 Denali
And it actually connects to a person? Because everything I’ve read says the NBS Onstar systems are outdated and the entire network changed the type of signal it uses so our antennas and communication modules won’t work.

Welp I have not called anyone from it in years but my wife gets the onstar report (tire pressure oil chg, etc) so I ASSumed it was all working like it used to...

On startup. Does it make a difference if it happens while driving?
This was only stored, no abs codes.View attachment 272373
I still gotta check those front wheel abs sensors.

Not sure if it makes a difference, was just curious. After random REP issue with my Tahoe for 2 years while driving, I happened to pinpoint the issue to the 16pin connector on the Tac module. Replaced that connector and issue went away for 2 years. Then all the sudden started getting REP on startup like you are about twice a week sometimes more when it was hot outside. Never again got it while driving. Chased the issue for about 2 years cleaning grounds, adding grounds, etc. Never fixed it. Was the main reason I sold it so cheap, because couldn’t in my right mind pawn that off on someone. Fortunately new owner just wanted a truck to play around with and said he was ok with trying to figure it out.

I’ve heard the Moog pitman arm is a PIA, too tight. I went with ACDelco for that, Moog Problem Solver idler and bracket and other parts.

So i saw this also! What gives with that!?! Anyone else with input and experience on the moog pitman??

Thanks to @Sam Harris i got a PN for a possible fit of a new style shark fin to replace the old style on my 02. It fits , just doesn’t plug in ( don’t care since OnStar doesn’t work and I did have to remove a piece of plastic on the new mount part so it would fit in the hole but it looks great and sealed up good. PTM and installed today. PN is 25775201.

Pretty confident this is the one I have. Unfortunately, I’m not the one who replaced it, my mechanic did. He didn’t seem to have any trouble with it, and
My steering is tight AF now. [emoji16][emoji106][emoji631][emoji631]
