Jumping Gauges
Hello,
My '07 Silverado Lt ( 5.3 L ) Had the same problem, When you would hit a bump in the road or just sitting there with every thing on !!!! :grrrrrr::grrrrrr::grrrrrr:
My Gauges would jump, The radio would go - off - on reset to default, The Auto A/C Heat , off -On Goes to Default
Power Door Locks jumping ,
Found Problem !!!!!!!!!!! :great:
While Cleaning the Engine Compartment with the Engine Running , I saw a PUFF OF SMOKE COME OUT FROM UNDER THE FUSE BOX !!!!!!!!!
Starting at the Battery, Checking for loose Conections, Batt. Connections -ok , Grounds -ok, Power Wire to Master Fuse on Firewall - ok ,
Power Wire to fuse box ---- OH, ----
Pull, Jiggle , PULL , Smoke came from UNDER Fuse AGAIN !!!!!!!!!!!
Shut off Engine , Disconnect Battery, Unlock fuse box from bottom Half, """"" BINGO """""" MAIN Power wire Connector TO FUSE BOX - Half way BURNED OFF , Bottom Side
of Fuse box Shows Signs Of Getting HOT ( It Is A _&^%$#@__ Quick Connect !!!!!!!! )
Replaced - Power Wire And Whole Fuse Box ( $$$$$ ) ....
FIXXED !!!!!
What A NiteMare .......:gasp::gasp::gasp::gasp:
SORRY For The Rant ..
Hope this may give you a starting Point,
Later ,
