What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[Geotrash]

Not yet. Alternator has about 45K on it.

I believe that one is designed to protect the fuel rail in case of an accident.

Checked the battery voltage this afternoon (haven't driven it today at all) and it's at 11.74V now but the temp is a good 25 degrees warmer than yesterday so... inconclusive. I also unplugged all of the vampires in the power sockets last night.

Which radio did you get? Have a link?

X2, I'm already liking the power/volume/tune buttons.

This is the one I got:
www.amazon.com/dp/B0CM2SRCVD

I also grabbed this camera ($10):
www.amazon.com/dp/B0B7LM1B68

But had to get some power/RCA extensions b/c it is meant for a car, not a large SUV. Therefore I haven't installed the camera, yet.

This is the one I wanted (literally twice the price):
www.amazon.com/dp/B09HCG6ZR6/

I had to find the code to get into factory settings (000000) to turn down the amp a little (75%) so level 1 isn't still a bit loud. I am also working on how to change the steering wheel controls, as they don't work exactly like I expect. Otherwise, I've been able to find and change whatever I needed/wanted to. [RSE doesn't yet work, but I know I'll need an adapter to get that working.]

that's a chunk lower than I would be comfortable with, I think most autoparts storeS could load test it for you in the parking lot

FWIW, my voltage was slightly (11.9v) higher than what you saw and I choose to replace the battery. In my case, starting was sluggish and REAL SLUGGISH in cold weather. I travel too often and leave my truck while out of town so didnt want to come home to a surprise wait for roadside after flying/traveling most of the day.

V1 has left the chat
She had a good life around 10+ years I think, thankfully flat rate repair is only $45 including return shipping.View attachment 419598

I didn't know they had a flat rate on the repairs. Mine quit after about ~12 years and I've been flying blind since.

Thanks gents. Good call. I’ll put in on a proper charge overnight and see where we land through the week with it.
