- Drive the vehicle to verify the condition and record a Pico data file of the concern.
- Review the Pico file and use it to help determine the root cause or component.
3Correction
Repair
- Repair the vehicle using the Pico information together with any published information relevant to the vibration frequency observed.
Caution
- Attempting a vibration repair without knowing the frequency is compared to repairing a check engine light without knowing the stored DTC.
- 12-03-10-001B is a generic document on the possibility of tire to rim orientation and of the tire slipping on the rim.
- Component level vibrations such as blower motor, brake pulsation or shudder on turns do not require a Pico file.

- Remedy
- This Preliminary Information communication provides information to the technician about vibration complaints that are one of the most challenging complaints to accurately diagnose and repair. Technician will need to use Pico Oscilloscope Diagnostic Kit to effectively diagnosis vehicles. Technician should drive the vehicle will using the Pico Oscilloscope to record data. After the data is recorded it should be reviewed to determine the root cause of the concern. If a repair attempt made the concern better but not eliminated or had no affect at all, and are requesting assistance from General Motors Technical Assistance Center record another Pico file and save it to the computer. After the new Pico Oscilloscope data has been saved email the data to General Motors Technical Assistance Center in the subject line include ?Vibration? ?Business Associate Code? and the last 8 of the Vehicle Identification Number.
