Todays video is a 2008 GMC Acadia that has no radio output and no turn signal sounds. I try to show you the best way to diagnose this problem.

Thanks for that "flasher" memory from my younger days. I did replace a few of those on the family cars. Cars were so much simpler to fix and only needing a SAE set of tools.

I agree! Now everything is mostly metric and requires a computer to diagnose!

Thanks! My radio just went out as well as the blinker noise, so now I know what needs to be replaced.

Same issue on my 2015 GMC Acadia will look to buy a used one and see if my local mechanic would feel comfortable vs taking it to overpriced dealership thank you.

Thanks for the video. The information on the turn signals is good because it helps pinpoint what I need to do also. I have the exact same problem on an Acadia 2010. Thanks again 💯

I have Acadia 2011 and the exact same problem since I bought it and the amplifier in my country so expensive , so when you change, the amplifier system is good or no ?

Thanks for the amazing info. I am having the same issue with my father-in-law’s 2015 Acadia. He just passed away and now I need to sell his car but no sound from the speakers!

@@hrdiesel what kind of shop should I take the car to in order to have the speakers fixed?

@davehorlacher 13 күн бұрын

it's 2 issues.. Sunroof drain on the drivers side is dripping on the Amp due to poor design. . Water in the door connectors after a heavy rain.

@MrSteve280 4 ай бұрын

Just curious. If you didn't want to deal with the difficult amplifier removal, would there have been a way to just unplug the defective one and replug it into the new/used amplifier and mount it elsewhere in the footwell? This whole process seems to be held hostage solely by the amplifier location.

@hrdiesel 4 ай бұрын

The biggest problem was the wiring wasn’t long enough to allow for mounting it in a different spot. I did attempt that but unfortunately failed.

@MrSteve280 4 ай бұрын

@@hrdiesel I figured that's probably but had to ask - I'd hoped maybe some clever person would have made a bypass or extension kit. Looks like I need to visit my local radio shop for advice as I will not mess with this stupid OEM amplifier defect/location issue.

@orvillelittle5900 3 ай бұрын

Just fixed this problem So to fix it easy water is getting in the wiring in the doors and running in the car causing the amplifier to intermittently work on and off some days mine was off for trap weeks before it pissed me off amplifier under dash driver side next to bcm

Also the wires. Was running the metal bracket by firewall as well

Where do you get the schematic for the Bose amp. X1 X2 X3

@teamvize2nd61 12 күн бұрын

is the amp in the radio?

@Klwjjj 3 ай бұрын

I wonder if this is a similar situation with my 2007 Monte Carlo - my front speakers quite working and while my turn signals work there’s no turn signal noise.

@brandyheitkamp1655 3 ай бұрын

This is exactly what I need done but gosh so expensive to fix even with used part…. The labor is what will take the most $$. Deciding to live without I suppose.

It’s way more expensive than it should be!

I pay several hundred dollars a month to get access to service manuals and repair procedures on Identifix.

Before I try this, is there any relay that can be checked?

@hrdiesel 4 ай бұрын

I am uncertain without looking at a diagram but I believe it’s all fuses. Make sure none of those are blown

@billwaplington8700 Ай бұрын

I see you pay for that info. Maybe you can help me still. Is X1 X2 and X3 from left to right? I have the same Bose amp. Bought a used one. Same problem. I never checked mute voltage. So I will try that. And the speaker trick was cool.

It depends on which way you hold the module but that is how they are per usual.

@iamanempoweredone6064 21 күн бұрын

Dealership cost to repair… 1600.00 they said it was the amplifier.

@hrdiesel 21 күн бұрын

I am not surprised. Those amplifiers new are terribly expensive. Plus the dealer likes to charge an arm and leg for labor too. lol
