The vehicle (where a record says)

A record is under an engine, a drive or a series only where it says so: the characters of the vehicle identification number filed with a complaint, its text, or what its document says it applies to. A record that does not say is kept as "not stated". The filed numbers and the documents do not tell 4WD from AWD.

Record by record

12 records state a cause or a remedy. Each record is shown as short labels in the order fault → finding the cause → correction. Press a label to narrow to the records that state it.

Symptom

Component named as the cause

A ribbon is as wide as the records that state both of its ends (only the commonest are drawn). A record that names several symptoms or components runs through each. Orange is records that say the fault came back or was not fixed. Results come from owners’ reports only; one that does not say is “result not stated”. None of this is a likelihood of a cause or a rate at which work succeeds.

      Not stated

      What the documents say to do

      HVAC blower motor resistor module / connector overheating

      Repair

      1. Dealers install a new blower motor resistor and resistor module connector.
      2. Cut the wires back far enough to remove any melted insulation.

      Caution

      • The connector must be replaced even if it was replaced in an earlier repair.
    Read the sentences of the record
    Cause
    On certain vehicles, the interface between the electrical terminals of the Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) blower relay resistor module and the wiring connector (which powers the module) may be incapable of conducting higher current levels for sustained periods of operation. In addition, moisture and other contaminants (such as road de-icing materials) may enter the fresh air intake plenum and contact the internal circuit of the module or corrode the terminals. These conditions may cause the relay resistor module or wiring connector to overheat, causing various symptoms such as: the HVAC blower may not function on certain or all blower speed settings; a burning-plastic smell or smoke may be present in the vehicle, or; the HVAC blower may run continually with the ignition in the OFF position. These warning signs could, in certain instances, be leading indicators of an impending vehicle fire, which could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Owners will be provided with additional warranty coverage for the blower motor resistor module/wiring connector overheating condition. Under this "special warranty coverage", should this condition occur within 10 years or 240,000 km from first vehicle registration, dealers will install a replacement blower motor resistor and resistor module connector.

    Heater-Vent-Air Conditioning Blows Warm Air

    1. 1Fault

      • The A/C blows warm or A/C performance is poor.

    2. 2Finding the cause

      Steps to confirm (in the document’s order)

      1. Have these readings available: A/C high and low pressures, high side sensor reading, A/C compressor duty cycle, refrigerant solenoid valve command (if equipped), outside temperature, humidity and vent temperature.
      2. With an automatic HVAC system, read with the scan tool the inside temperature sensor, the outside temperature sensor, the duct temperature sensors and the evaporator temperature sensor (if equipped).

    3. 3Correction

      This Preliminary Information communication provides information to the technician about vehicles that the Heater-Vent-Air Conditioning blows warm air. Before calling General Motors Technical Assistance Center technician will need to have high and low pressures, outside temperature, humidity, and vent temperature.

    Rear Window Defroster Contact or Tabs Service Information

    1. 1Fault

    2. 2Finding the cause

      Not stated

    3. 3Correction

      Repair

      1. On 2007-2014 Tahoe, Suburban, Yukon and Escalade with moveable glass always replace the defroster tab (GM P/N 25916031) and the power connector (P/N 12034110); on all other vehicles reconnect the original defroster tab.
      2. Remove the rear defroster power connector and crimp a new one to the feed wire; the proper connector, P/N 12034110, is in the Packard Electrical Assortment, Tray 18, Position 5.
      3. Prepare the surface of the used defroster tab and the defroster buss bar with fine grain (500 grit) sandpaper or Emery cloth.
      4. Wipe the prepared contact area with Kent Automotive Acrysol (or equivalent) to remove residual oil or dirt.
      5. Heat the new connector on the buss bar surface to be soldered, holding the connector and defroster tab in place with long nose pliers.

      Part numbers printed in the document

      The numbers are as the document prints them. The name and the replacing number are what the pages of GMPartsGiant, a reseller of genuine parts and not GM, state. Aftermarket equivalents are not checked here (the links only search by number). Confirm the fit for the vehicle (VIN) before ordering.

      Parts

      • Silver solder: Radio Shack (The Source in Canada) 64-013, 0.022" diameter.
      • Solvent: P20005 Kent Automotive Acrysol Solvent (32 fl oz) 946 ml.

      Caution

      • Let the glass warm to the temperature inside the building; soldering creates a hot spot in the glass, so do not solder on cold glass.
      • Heating the glass excessively, or repeatedly without time to cool, may break the glass.
      • A silver-bearing solder must be used; do not attempt the repair with conventional tin/lead alloy solders.
