What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[viven44]

I removed the ABS module Sunday (didn't disconnect battery ---- my bad.. didn't even unlock vehicle). I made sure the vehicle was locked afterwards. Came back today battery was completely dead.... not even enough juice to start with a portable jump starter. Not even enough juice to check CCAs. On thursday or so I checked the CCAs, had about 750 or so left.... the battery was only 2 weeks old at that point.... any thoughts on whether the security or something was on overdrive since it was looking for a module ?

Swapped new battery in... Charging voltage appears to be 13.9V.... with AC running around ~13.4V.... any reason to suspect alternator here ?

On my non-smart carbureted old trucks, I'm used to seeing about 14.5V while the engine is running... any good threads to read on what a good charging voltage on GMT800 is ?

Needless to say I have the battery disconnected now until my module arrives from repair... (I've understood I could even drive the vehicle without the module but I didn't want to so its been sitting)

Installed the ABS module that came back from the eBay service (rapid_electronics). For $79 it was excellent service. 24 hour turnaround!! Mailed on Monday received back Friday.

Nice to not have ABS and brake light glaring at you !

I may have a battery discharge problem maybe from malfunctioning door sensors or ignition lock cylinder (potentially), I’ll open a separate thread on this…

I did the NNBS front brake upgrade.
I bought coated Raybestos Element3 rotors and pads.
I got lucky with my local wrecker had calipers that looked like they were put on the day the car was wrecked....

Went super smooth and they work great.
