Wow! Very interesting. How often was it happening before doing what you did here? Also, most importantly, is she stil poltergeist-free? 😅

I have the exact same problem with my 2013 yukon. Did you replace the positive all the way to the computer?

Good deal. My truck has been good for at least 2-3 years now. Good luck out there.

Issue came back a few months later. Changed positive battery cable and no problems for about a year. Good luck.

JOHN REAVES I started having a service brake system light come on a couple months ago and it was the little ground wire that bolts to the frame right under the drivers seat. Not inside the cab but under the truck. Unbolted the wire, where wheeled the connection spot and reconnected and all is good. Different issue than what I had before but it may be worth checking into.

I’m having the same issue on my 07 suburban what is it end up being? I just ordered an new ground cable wire

This is for Guerrero Burban I ended up changing the positive battery cable and no issues since. It’s been well over a year now.

There a small black wire coming from a harness bolted to them back of the motor on pass side

@@ricepadi29 did my negative cable wire and it’s still doing 😡 I’m going to change positive cable

RPM Improvement Outdoor Services LLC Thanks RPM I hope so too. Positive cable will be next if it does it again. I also installed a new starter last year thinking that was the culprit.

Scout's Outdoor Services SOS Keep us posted

I have a 2010 Silverado After 3 mechanics, Stole my money.. And also take it to the dealer They stole my money also and never fix it. After 2 years I find out. It's the battery sensor problem fix. For sure, I know mechanics know what's going on. They just don't wanna tell you they just wanna take you money

The problem has not come back since putting on a new positive cable. 🤞

I never experienced any icy road warnings when my truck was having issues. I know my icy light comes on when the temps are right around 32 degrees. My truck would stutter a lot real quick, the locks go crazy, and the speedo and rpm gauges would basically stop working. The stuttering was basically because the truck was losing power and and back on repeatedly. It did feel like it was kicking into neutral because of the power loss. It seemed that it took place when there was a heavy load on the electrical like running the ac and or heater, radio going, and putting on turn signals all at once. Once I finally changed the positive battery cable it has been smooth sailing. There is also a ground cable on the frame underneath the truck pretty much right under the driver seat. It is notorious for causing a service brake system light to come on. It is an easy unbolt, clean all the rust, and reboot project. Good luck out there.

@@ricepadi29 The “Icy Roads warning” could just be pure coincidence cause it’s been cold since I’ve owned the truck. The reason I mentioned the truck feeling like it’s going into neutral it’s cause you can hear the truck rev up loudly and not move just like when you put it on neutral but I’m sure it’s the same issue you were having. I will try to replace all the things you did on the video and keep my fingers crossed. I appreciate you making this video!

@@gmcsierra4889 any luck I’m having the same issue

Not really. I know that cables can sometimes corrode inside the casing so it is hard to tell. Probably could have compared them to see if old one was swollen. Been a few years now and no issues still.

Dr. Rick Aircompressor running in the garage.

oscar Oscar Definitely a good idea to disconnect the negative from the battery before swapping out parts.

Never found that ground. As soon as I replaced the negative battery cable problem was solved.

Not sure of the gauge. It is just a generic battery cable that I nougat autozone. The problem came back so I replaythe positive battery cable and haven’t had a problem in over two years.

@@ricepadi29 Awesome, I've done the ground strap workaround with the cable you stated and so far so good. (other then my radio not powering on in very rare circumstances) however I think I'll end up replacing the positive battery cable, how did you disconnect from the fuze box? I can't for the life of me figure that out!

The positive is a two in one cable. One goes from the battery to the starter and the other one goes to the mega fuse on the firewall. This is the video I used. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l9KJZ7N4z5zGp40.html

My best guess is that your starter is done.

Ya I am used to and sometimes forget it is going.

I'm having the same issue. Ever figure it out

​@@daviddavis3619 did you ever figure what your problem was?mm

@@joleaiperlis5347 mine was the battery itself.

I doubt it. Any other fuse the orientation doesn’t matter. I think I put the new fuse in right side up though. Final fix was replacing the positive battery cable. Been good for a few years now.

@@ricepadi29 thanks, good video!

I would suggest eliminating that spliced wire and run a new one to the frame. There is also another ground wire on the the truck on the frame basically under the driver seat area. It is known to cause issues so quick unbolt clean and reattach May be helpful.

I replaced the negative battery cable, the master fuse, added another ground first and the problem came back. Then I replaced the positive battery cable and it has not had a problem for a couple years now. Good luck

@@ricepadi29 one last question , did you get a new battery cable to the alternator or starter ? Or what did you get specifically?

The positive cable that went to the starter.

@@ricepadi29 thanks man ! I appreciate so much !

I wouldn’t suggest going up to the 200. May cause something else that it is supposed to protect burn up. The problem came back again so I replaced the positive cable and haven’t had any problems for a couple years now.

@@ricepadi29do you need to replace the cable to the starter and alternator also? Or can i just do the battery cable for now

@@wallace7108 if I remember correctly The positive cable has a second lead that goes to the starter. Honestly don’t remember but the once I replaced the positive cable I never had more problems.

Jose Ortize For a few months all was good but it started to happen again so I replaced the positive battery cable and it has been good for almost a year now. Good luck out there.

I haven’t had any problems since replacing the positive battery cable. 🤞

@@ricepadi29 I’m going to try it i appreciate the tip

Fingers crossed. My issue came back so changed the positive battery cable and it has been fine for 2 plus years.

Never heard of it. I will pick some up thanks. I have regular anti seize.

jordie johnson About 3 months later I started having issues again. I ended up replacing the positive battery cable and all is good now.

Scout's Outdoor Services SOS awesome! Thanks for replying, life saver! Almost traded my truck in over this. Been dealing with this issue for awhile now

jordie johnson Definitely understand your frustration. If you take the front passenger tire off and remove the wheel well line or at least undo the bottom of the liner you can get to the starter connection that the positive cable runs to. I bought my new cable on amazon. Good luck out there.

I changed both negative & positive cables, all the wiring & is starting to do the same problem again... I’m starting to think should I check the alternator? Clean the battery terminals? Check if battery is still good? I have a 2015 GMC Sierra 4WD

Jorge Aldama Definitely check the alternator but if the power is cutting in and out I think it is more than likely some kind of connection issue. My initial fix seemed to take care of it but a few months later we started having issues again so I replaced the positive battery cable and haven’t had a problem for close to a year now. Good luck out there.
