Record by record

3 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.

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.

Known issuesShift lever position indicator in the instrument cluster may not illuminate (FMVSS 102) - recall 05V-0552

  1. Recall2005 GMC YUKON ・ —

    Automatic Transmission Shift Lever Position Indicator Illumination Recall

    1. 1Fault

      • Under certain starting conditions the shift lever position indicator in the instrument panel cluster may not illuminate; on later start-ups the condition may or may not recur.
      • If the indicator does not illuminate, the driver may not know which gear is selected and the vehicle may move in an unintended direction, possibly injuring people outside the vehicle.
    2. 2Finding the cause

      Possible causes

      • The PRNDL indicator behavior is induced only by a very specific battery voltage waveform and depends on vehicle level characteristics, while the vehicle otherwise operates normally.
      • The "blank PRNDL" anomaly appeared at the assembly plants after interim 2005 model year instrument panel cluster revisions that began on January 31, 2005.
    3. 3Correction

      Repair

      1. Dealers are to reprogram the instrument panel cluster.
      2. Prepare the vehicle for instrument panel cluster (IPC) reprogramming, then program the IPC using TIS data version 2.25.

      Parts

      • No parts are required for this recall.

      Caution

      • The service calibration is in Techline Information System (TIS) data version 2.25 and on TIS CD-ROM version 3.
      • A later dealer message says TIS Data 2.50 has been released, so dealers no longer need to contact the Techline Customer Support Center (TCSC) for a VCI number to access the calibration.
      • Vehicles with manual transmissions are not involved in this recall and need no further action.

    Cause
    CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 102, "TRANSMISSION SHIFT LEVER SEQUENCE, STARTER INTERLOCK AND TRANSMISSION BRAKING EFFECT." UNDER CERTAIN VEHICLE STARTING CONDITIONS, THE SHIFT LEVER POSITION INDICATOR LOCATED IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER MAY NOT ILLUMINATE. IF THE SHIFT LEVER POSITION INDICATOR DOES NOT ILLUMINATE, THE DRIVER MAY NOT KNOW WHICH GEAR THE VEHICLE IS IN.
    Remedy
    DEALERS WILL REPROGRAM THE INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON FEBRUARY 14, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CADILLAC AT 1-866-982-2339, CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, AND GMC AT 1-866-996-9463.
    Consequence
    THE VEHICLE MAY MOVE IN AN UNINTENDED DIRECTION RESULTING IN POSSIBLE INJURY TO OTHERS OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE.

    Cause
    Certain vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission fail to comply with the requirements of CMVSS 101 - Location, identification and illumination of displays. Under certain vehicle starting conditions, the shift lever position indicator located in the instrument panel cluster may not illuminate. In subsequent vehicle start-ups, this condition may or may not occur again. If the shift lever position indicator does not illuminate, the driver may not know which gear the vehicle is in and the vehicle may move in an unintended direction, resulting in possible injury to others outside of the vehicle. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the instrument panel cluster.
