The back door will not open. I unlock the doors but I hear nothing from the back door at all. It has been very cold so not sure if it’s not just frozen.

2017 Equinox door issues and battery drain.

Chevrolet Equinox 2017  75000 miles
I've noticed there are times my door is shut it will lock but not beep to signal it has been locked. During these times, if I start my car it shows my door is open when it in fact is shut. The lights and radio do not shut off and drain my battery.

Check your door sensor. It may be bad & is not telling your vehicle the door is in the proper position

It could be frozen, or it may just be a wiring issue related to that particular lock.

Autostart does not work

Chevrolet Equinox 2012 Chevy 60000 miles
So, i have a 2012 Equinox and the autostart won't work. Did all the systems/door/lock/hood latch checks. Changed the battery in the key fob and used the back up remote. You can hear the car getting ready to start, you can hear the enging clicking and trying to engage to turn the engine over, but it doesn't. So now what? Do I take it to a dealer and pay hundreds of dollars for a scan cause the engine light is on and coincidentally autostart doesn't work? Do I have to buy a new autostart? I paid of $3,000 for the extended GMPP plan and does this fall under the warranty? I just got the suv back from the dealership after a week of them having it. What can I do from home, and if I can't figure it out then what?

Auto start does not work if the check engine light is on

You need to solve the issue that is causing the check engine light. The remote start system is designed to not engage If the check engine light is on.

Check the fuses for starter, and ignition. If all fuses are good, you could have a mechanically inclined friend try to 'jump the solenoid' at the starter to eliminate the possibility of a starter issue.

Battery dead

Chevrolet Equinox 2011 4 l 165000 miles
Tried to start car with remote. Wouldn't start but tail lights flashing off and on. Got a boost and while driving, tailights still flashing. When I shut it off wouldn't start again. When I opened door with key horn started blowing. Now it's all dead. Pretty sure it's all because of battery? Help

Sounds like a problem with the security system. You could try reprogramming the key fobs, and check remote starter is enabled at the same time from the programming menu.

No heat. When I fix something heat lasts one day

I replaced, radiator, thermostat, hoses, fuses for HVAC, cabin filter, blend door actuator, added a pump on heatercore lines to force fluid, over flow tank and cap still no heat it only lasts a day after any replacement. Heatercore flush as well. I have the correct dex in radiator. The blower works well a/c works fine after refill. This truck is well takin care of with no other problems. 162,000 miles. Regular oil changes and any other maintenance its needed has been done. Iam at a total loss here and its single digits outside now and I really need to figure this out. If anyone has an idea please toss my way. Thank you
