Took me a minute to get it. I was like, I don't remember talking brand of phones. :) :)
I hate it when it selects her phone when I am in the car. Let's go home, and the
(Google) sorry don't have that in your phone.
Not really talking. (me) Yes, you do. (Google) No, I don't. Then si when I...
Hard to tell. Until I can find some manufacturer information, it is all a guess.
Assuming GM did not change its strategy on A/S/S in the 2025 model. A false door ajar (closed) is required for the A/S/S to work. That is a big assumption. Something must have changed in the way signals are...
I was not thinking, BCM is probably checking the hood latch constantly for theft protection. I bet the code gets set unplugging it. That the pass/fail i thought it was me removing the bypass. May have to rethink the issue. Now I am more than ever curious what is under the heat shrink.😁😁
No light, i just saw the code when I connect the scan tool.
I wanted to see if I could see the switch. I may do some looking under the shrink tube when I get to work. I may try to back prob the voltage to see what kind of resistance. Because of the diodes you just can't just read ohms.
Did not work. Plug seems correct. It set a BCM code. Circuit High means there is no resistance pulling it down to ground.
I pulled up the ECM and was looking at the hood switch under the Autostart Inhibit Reason - Ajar and it was set to No if I opened the hood it would switch to Yes.
The...
It should get here today, but curiosity got to me. I have been thinking about what @PoManNox said about resisters. BTW, thanks for sending me down a deep rabbit hole. :) :) :)
When you need to know if a switch is open and if a wire is broken, you use a resistor. Depending on how the switch...
The article that I linked to above talks about a relay. When nothing is running, the relay is closed, so the system knows the hood is closed. All works as expected. When the engine starts, it opens the relay, so now the computer thinks the hood is open. Looking at the picture, the wire loom did...
My wife and I are used to the car locking the doors automatically. Last night I had to find the setting so I could enable it after the BCM was replaced. I grabbed a screen shot. I think it has to be running and in park. I had the ignition on, but a lot were greyed out. I did a screen grab just...
Got some pictures. @CocoaJeff do you have the hood latch and what looks like a hood sensor?
This is from the driver toward the passenger side. For $12 I think I can just take a chance. :)
Here is the shot of the actual latch connector ...
That is what I assumed, that is why I was asking about your experience. :) Does your model turn off the open hood light?
I am asking about the one you posted also. My guess is I need to look when I can and if it is the same connector as 2024 it should work.
I did drive a different 2025 Equinox this Saturday and it behave the same, so I have accepted the facts as if will have to get over my disappointment. :-)
I just ask them, after some more research I now understand the big vs small connector that @PoManNox was saying. I think that was the question someone else as asking. The article to the link I posted talk about a relay so after the open hood is faked out, the relay kicks in so the computer...
Saturday the 2025 was in the shop. I went over to new car sales to ask a few questions. When brought up the subject of the receiver hitch, he told me they just installed one on a customer's car this last week. When I asked about how the trim piece fit, he told me it didn't, which is what I would...
Lane Keep Asist.
More updates ....
Looks like the BCM did fix the heater issue and here are all the hoops the dealer did to get the car fixed. I have to give them a lot of Kudos.
The updated ETA from Michigan was 3 to 4 weeks. The dealer found one in Fort Worth and had it shipped to OKC. It...
This has been mentioned in a few threads. Not wanting to hijack any of them, I thought I would just start one. Someone asked if the "hood wire" was the same as 2024. Again, the subject of the thread was something else and I did not want to hijack it. Also in another thread different subject, I...
There are a lot of customizations that can be configured in 2025. I found a setting that has to do with "auto lock". When the FOB leaves the car at some point it will automatically lock. When it does that, it will beep. This Saturday the BCM was replaced and a lot of settings have been restoring...
I am unsure about the 2024, but our 2025 auto has a fan speed option in the settings. My climate control issues were fixed on Saturday, and the temperature now works on auto. However I noticed the fan did not slow down after reaching the temperature, that is when I found the setting. At this...
I know I had a false start before, but this time I am pretty sure I heard it once yesterday for about 3 seconds after rolling down the window. The reason for rolling down the window?
I have a bad BCM and the tech jumped it so I could have heat. Long story. So I started rolling down the window...
