4x won't disengage

Chevrolet Silverado 2008 5.6/ 210000 miles
When in auto or 4x it doesn't want to reverse, or won't shift out of 4x.
Took it to the place I bought it. And then found a bunch of personal things in it. Indicating that it was being used not fixed... they had it for almost 2weeks.

Trailer Break controller does not engage.

Chevrolet Silverado 2019 Silverado 1500 LD LT dbl cab 4×4 90000 miles
My truck, although it had a hitch and all the trailer light connectors and such, both multi prong and 4 prong options, but it did not come equipped with a trailer Break Controller... I ordered a OEM original trailer break controller, and customized the panel to a perfect fit, there was a cable connection that is for the trailer brake controller behind the panel and plugged in a dummy hole, (since I didnt have that option equipped I only had a little change pouch in the panel... I cut it out, custom fit for the OEM controller, the connector for it via the cable that was already there in place (… Read complete

Fans failure

Chevrolet Silverado 2010  64000 miles
My van's fans are suddenly turned on and the temperature's pressure gauge is disabled. On top of that, a script warns that there is an engine overheating. The thermostat and temperature sensor were replaced, it worked better for two months but the problem is now back. What might it be?

Do you know whether your new temperature sensor is a good quality one? Nowadays there are many of them out there that are cheaper but only last for some weeks, or in the best of the cases months. You should check this first of all.

Removing and replacing emc and starter fuses under the dash is a temporary fix as i don't frive it much due to initial stalling and then stall with system shutout, no power.

Stepper motor inside the cluster is bad. Have all replaced. There are stepper motors for each gauge that has a needle. Speedometer, RPM, engine temp, coolant temp, etc. There's an updated/new part number for the stepper motors. I had the same problem. They need to be soldered to the dash cluster circuit board.

Gas gauge and speedometer aren’t working.

Chevrolet Silverado 2012 5.3 L 250000 miles
Gas gauge and speedometer/odometer aren’t working. All fuses under the hood are good and in the proper location according to the truck schematic. As are the fuses inside the truck on the drivers dash. I also notice the truck will stall out at startup if I don’t apply some gas. Where do I go from here?

Think it's a bcm maybe

Chevrolet Silverado 1999 Silverado 5.3 2x4 300000 miles
So my 1500 started the issue by the red battery light coming on sporadically and then like for 2 or 3 weeks I was having to turn the wheel one way to get it to start but then just boom I had no problems with starting but now whenever you turn the key off and out the headlights will stay on and start flashing. Won't stop unless u disconnect the battery cables. Oh and I also forgot all my gauges started going haywire but now I dont think any of them work properly

Starts but doesnt have throttle

Chevrolet Silverado 2007 1500 0 miles
I have a 2007 Chevrolet Silverado and I can start it but it doesn't rev up nor does it have any throttle when I push the gas pedal. On my dash underneath my speedometer it says reduced engine power. I cant figure out whats wrong with it. It started this after taking off from a stop sign. Also my brake lights and tail lights dont work anymore they stopped working before the throttle thing happened. Also when i go to take off from a stop my truck jerks really hard its done that since i bought the truck. Theres 3 problems i dont have the solution for so Can someone please help me. I dont exactly remember how many miles are on it.

Never had this happen before

Chevrolet Silverado 2001 2500hd 180000 miles
Was this a freak vapor lock?? Drove about 10-12 miles on freeway. Pulled into parking lot. Pulled past a spot so I could back in to spot. As soon as I engaged the brakes, truck died. Every time I started it back up, as soon as I put her in reverse, truck would die. Literally took about 12 starts and reversing 4”-6” at a time before I got her into the spot. Hadn’t happened again and have driven it hard, but unsure if this was a freak event or if I have something more brewing under the hood?? Any suggestions?

Goes on Reverse no problem, shifts to D no movement. Pull fuse#19 driv

Chevrolet Silverado 2010 Silverado 129000 miles
I have a 2010 Chevy silverado that when I start truck I put it on reverse and backs up fine, shift to D and no movement rpms move but speedometer barely moved at 4500rpm. Removed fuse#19 and put it on D and moves sluggish for a bit then drives smooth. Transmission rebuilt 2 years ago truck has 129000 miles. Could it be a wiring issue if so what should I look for. Or is it check balls, in valve body, pump, or solenoids , fluid is fine not burnt and it has plenty fluid
