2015 Chevy Silverado no sound / radio volume or blinkers easy fix

[@christinascleaning]

Yes lol

[@cdigiglio]

Man. Thank you for this. My 2015 Colorado did this today while I was driving. No audio from the radio, blinkers, etc. So glad you made this clear, concise video explaining it!

[@cforcemx9869]

Been wondering why this keeps happening😂

[@jessrocks82780]

Expensive but necessary fix. Did the other steps people talked about, end call button etc. none of that worked n I think because I have a 2015 not a newer model. I changed the battery n I’m pretty sure it did need to be changed anyway and all of my sounds are working again! Thank you for your video. Ok, I won’t take the credit, my husband changed the battery. If u have a 2015 u know it’s a task to change it.

[@LogicalJay]

This is absolutely the fix. Check the battery and it had a dead cell. It would still start the truck, though. Replaced the battery and problem solved. Brother, thank you soo much!

[@ghostkiller427]

Thank you so much! Literally (and still is) happening to my dads truck, glad this video exists finally

[@exterminater267]

Glad I found this video here in early 2022. Been happening for a few months now on and off typically with colder temps. Sure enough my battery is low. Never noticed because truck starts and alternator shows full power when running.

[@huntermudducks381404]

Just confirming with this information, it's true...my battery needed replacement. My sound was not working at all, A temp fix run your car and let it warm up, then turn it off, open your door then close, sit for 5 minutes and restart your radio should work until you get your battery replaced 👍

[@hunterness9115]

-28 in North Dakota and this happened to me today. Thank you

[@georgehoward8185]

Nice to see another North Dakota boy out there. -22° out I figured it was a big electrical problem in my vehicle.

[@karl2kkent]

Also if you have a slightly older one and it has the Bose system. Chances are your stock amplifier has either went out or the fuse popped. Working on dealing with mine in my 2008 right now.

[@user-li4hn6vd5g]

Our Temp got down to the mid 50's last night and today mine did the same thing also my fan stayed on and ac quit blowing cold. I did notice that it started a little sluggish today. This makes sense. Going to change the battery out and hopefully this fixes it. Thanks!

[@landonrichey6709]

Do not waste your money buying a brand new battery!!! This is not the problem if you hit your on star button the guy sitting with 3 bars and wait 5 seconds and then hit the button to cancel it it will fix this issues. You can also disconnect your battery wait 2 mins and hook it back up. Do not waste your money on a battery.

[@rwcrash]

[@rwcrash]

@landonrichey Thst worked for me this time. Did your problem continue?

[@timcantrell2447]

I did a factory "global hard reset" did not work found another way to reset by disconnecting battery then waiting 5 to 10 min bfor hooking the cables back up touch both negative and positive together for 3 to 5 seconds then hooking them up starting with positive then negative nothing worked for me I also tryed the on'star theory no luck... going to test battery after reading this post.

Thanks, I was worried I’d have to go to dealership. Getting battery tested today.

Did it work?

[@davidwalker3656]

My truck does this...been doing it for over a year. The battery has been tested often and it's good.

[@Trauma_zooted]

Literally same i have a 2015 Chevy Silverado my radio will sometimes come in just randomly going down the road but most of the time i have no sound/no seatbelt chime and no blinker noise been well over a year still haven’t got a fix im thinking a shop is gonna have to have my answer

[@carlosviera9156]

Thanks My Friend, thanks To your video i change my battery before i could get stranded on the Road on my way to Arizona

[@arianrodriguevtz3844]

Most helpful video that I've seen

[@gerritkort97]

I been having this issue for quite awhile now. all I would do is turn the truck off, let it rest for a minute and start it back up and it would work fine. But lately that has not been working. Today I noticed it has struggled to start, I hope the battery is the issue and the fix.

[@andrewhaas209]

Bro you fuckin edged me for 2 minutes straight just to say “you’re car is trying to tell you your battery is dying” bro cmon don’t be that guy

Thank you, my truck has the same problem, and I was going to take it to the Chevy garage till I seen this video thanks again.

I have a Colorado and it's doing the same thing but the battery is only 5 months old.

[@logannbeeyang9779]

Saw this video and changed my battery!!!! Same issue!!!!

[@jbutterfly36]

Same here

[@JoseFlores-gr7qt]

Di u guys fix it yet I got same problem

[@tommyscott5603]

my problem is sometimes i get in my truck and start it and the radio won't work but if i start it up and the door chime works the radio will work but if the the door chime doesn't sound off the radio won't work either. In other words, if the door chime goes off the radio works, if the door chime does not sound off the radio will not work. If i turn the motor off and crank it back up sometimes the radio will start working again. It's weird.

[@Vaughn3131]

Mine was 100% battery related. Had the same issue in my 2015 Sierra for years. No sound from radio and turn signals when starting. Only happened on the coldest of (Ontario winter) days, however would be fine if I turned the truck off, allowing the system reset, and re-start (as battery would have re-charged by then). This year it started way more frequently, almost daily in warmer temps too. Progressed to starting issues with dead battery. Replaced battery and no issues with sound since.

[@joereeves4602]

lol thank you for making this video. I hardly drive my truck and it just started happening. I said its probably battery is low lol thanks again for the confirmation!

[@JetteB777]

My friend in MI just posted about this asking if anyone had this problem and knew how to fix it and what can ever do in 2020. Look it up on KZbin to see if someone has had the issue and recorded how to fix it. I’m not sure if it will help her BUT I thank you for the video. 😄

[@notasolution]

A lot of newer cars act similar because of all the electronics they have and all the power it takes to run all the different computers throughout the car. If her battery is a few years old, I definitely would try just replacing it first, I hope it works!

[@zacharygoodson632]

Thanks! Battery has been a bit weak on cold mornings but never would have connected the correlation.

[@chrisoperator6903]

Thanks for this vid bro. I thought it was a fuse at first! Lol I'm gonna get one because this going with no radio daily sucks

[@jasonlichtenberg8082]

Just happened today! Appreciate it, I was worried haha

[@gonzo187th]

Thank you so very much buddy, getting a battery now…thank you again..

[@alankeenan3832]

All U have to do is disconnect ur battery and hook it back up

[@biscutman98]

Go to passenger fuse panel, pull small 20A fuse and it’ll reset your radio!!!

[@JamesMidkiff]

I had the same thing and a new battery did the trick. Now if I could get my radio to keep time and stop it from resetting the radio to 87.9 I would be in good shape. Thanks

[@LogicalJay]

Brother, thanks. I hope you're right. This is maddening.

[@ramonayala1982]

Mine is doing that right now! Thank you!

[@BirthrightPhotog]

my 2014 silverado has been doing this for several days now, i just replaced my primary battery earlier today, after watching this video... still have this issue.. im running a 2 battery system and both, voltage wise were still good, but i replaced the main one anyway..

[@titocolon2562]

Holy hell dude thank you!!!! I was freaking out!!

[@lukeuzzellbryan3883]

I have a 2015 2500 Silverado I have 2 batteries (same problem) I did notice the starter seeming to be weaker Good video Thanks

[@josephcruz6503]

Changed my battery but still didnt work. Any other solutions? my start up chime blinkers and left side speakers are not working not even the beep when fuel is low

[@kodytemple1825]

Same with mine

[@joelstrickland9569]

Thank you for the video! This morning the temp was 28 F, my 2015 Buick LaCrosse was a little slow to start. Them I realized the radio & blinders had no sound.

[@mrchocolate1268]

Really?

[@2009mechanic]

I just forcibly smack the dash with my hand very hard just above the left side of the glove boxes and the stuff starts working. Either my display fails to boot up or the amplifier doesn't work when I start the 2018 gm truck. It is a connection problem between the radio components. BTW mine has new DUAL batteries under the hood. It's not a battery problem. Have yours load tested before you spend $120 on a new one.

[@notasolution]

I've been told that the radio connects under the glove box, big rectangle connection and apparently, sometimes the connector just comes loose. Theres youtube videos on where it is, sometimes just unplugging it and plugging it back in nice and tight is all that needs to be done as well

[@nacolescott9378]

I was so excited this might be what I needed but sadly it didn’t work for my car.

[@stevenrodgers352]

I think it may be a bad ground wire. I have the same issue and my truck will short out when slowing down and turning sharply. 2015 Silverado.

[@treybennett1875]

Thanks man. Happening to my 15 now

[@jp0098]

Thank you 👍🏽 hi from Dallas

Go pull your radio fuse. Make sure it isn’t blown. And put it back in. You’re welcome lol.

[@rayz671]

Today was second time this happened. Truck sat for a almost 2 days and cold outside. Last time after driving 20 mins, I started up and the sound came back. I know my Battery is fine

[@bruceskinner642]

Weird thing here. I had a dead battery in my 14 Silverado. I changed the battery and now my sound won’t work?

[@hamadalkawary9473]

God bless you man 🙏

[@lisajohnston6422]

I have a 2018 Chevy Tahoe and everything works but no sound for the radio, turn signal, or chimes. I tried everything. Pulled and checked fuses for the radio, amp and infocenter, tested battery and it is good to go, I tried the Onstar button and the call disconnect button tricks, disconnected the battery for over 10 minutes then reconnected AND NONE OF THESE THINGS WORK. My research found all of the sounds are through the amp located in the trunk/rear driver's side panel (also another fuse box is there). You can order another amp online, but it looks like a pain in the ass to remove the amp yourself as there are several items in your way that blocks easy access to the amp. It's like the whole panel has to be removed to get to the amp. I'm going to talk to the dealership in the morning. The tips people have recommended are a temporary solution until the amp completely fails.

[@TheEbonybusby]

And you are so right. Thanks

[@Kpeace0105]

We’re blinkers actually working during this? I feel afraid mine aren’t!

[@BEMGANG]

I have all these issues but my stereo is making a thumping nose off and on. I believe I changed the battery prior to this starting to happen to my truck. So I’m confused.

[@donjagers7826]

My 15 only does it when it's cold out like low 30s or below. But, it doesn't do it everytime. Doesn't do it in the warmer months. No issue with battery, cranks fine. I wonder if it has something to do with the cold? Seems as if after it warms up, it's okay after starting again.

[@notasolution]

That's exactly how and when my truck was acting up, it's most likely your battery has a dead or weak cell. When it's cold, the battery strains harder, once you warm it up it charges it enough to act normal. Same for when its warm outside, the battery doesnt strain has hard so you dont have issue. My truck did exactly what you described for 2 years and I couldnt figure it out until I noticed last winter, my battery volt gauge was abnormally high, and then one day a few weeks later, my truck wouldnt start. Replaced the battery and havent had any issues since. Keep an eye on your voltmeter. That's another indicator that your batteries on it's way out. If its reading high, that means the trucks alternator is overworking to keep the dying battery charged. Keep me updated on your findings! If I'm wrong, I'd love to hear what your issue does turn out to be!

[@mmmerable]

Mine is doing this now and it's a hundred degrees out side

[@CherBeey]

Been doing the fuse trick and it work for a couple month then it quit working. Saw this video and thought I'd give it a try. Nope! Same results. Still not working!

[@jacobvuna6462]

Passenger side you’ll see a fuse picture pop cover out use a plastic tool something flat cause there’s a few clips after check fuse 29-RDO(20A) and fuse 48-AMP(30A) it works for me 2015 Chevy Tahoe lt

[@jacobvuna6462]

Sorry to mention this fixed my black screen radio/weird sound on the dashboard speakers like it’s under water when you turn volume up and my turn signal had no blinking sound hopefully this helps someone out 🤙🏾

[@deanakeith818]

Got new batteries my car has 2 one rear battery and a battery underneath the hood . Replaced the fuse which wasn't the problem neither. Car radio, signal lights, low fuel or door chimes still don't work . 🤔 grrrr

[@user-pc4uh9mq7z]

I have this issue with my 2019 Tahoe. Changed the battery and it didn't help. Still no radio, blinker sound, start up ding. When I push the radio power button it says audio is muted. How do I get the mute to go away?!?!?

[@tjjones1664]

So I have a 2016 Camaro and there’s no sound coming from anywhere do you think this could be the issue for my car I went to get the batter tested and they said it needed to be charged ? So maybe?

[@notasolution]

I want to be clear, this MAY not fix your issue, however, if your battery is old, and like you said, it tested weak, it very well could be. These chevys have a multitude of culprits that cause the same issue weve had, however I do believe a weak and dying battery is the most common and easiest fix. I cant guarantee obviously, but, if it's almost time to replace your battery anyway, may as well give it a shot. One thing mine was doing that made me believe it was the battery was also, it would only have this issue when I first started it, after driving it for a little while (charging the battery) and then restarting it after it charged up via the alternator, I would have aound again. Also, I noticed my voltmeter was running slightly higher than usual when my issue occured, in the 15 range as a pose to 14 and below (normal). If you've got those 2 symptoms, I'd put money on just a battery

[@kingjavy9558]

I wonder does this go for the Chevy Malibu as well

[@Creekwata]

No is not always true, it's not just the battery. I changed my battery and still didn't fix the problem. There are plugs in the doors that could possibly be wet as well.

[@cvfd356]

I had no sounds, parking sensors wouldn’t work, screen was blank. Dealership checked everything and audio shop both found nothing. It just started working.

[@carsonarnet3824]

I have a new battery. Good connections to the radio. Still have the issue.

[@RobertKeeler]

Same problem. Fuse is good. Battery is between 13.5-13.8 volts. Recharged battery; no luck…still same problem. One note, for me it’s only the turn signal “blinking noise” and my left front speaker. Any help…plz?

[@TishlerRealEstate]

I'm the same. Any luck w/you?

[@phantom4725]

Same issue here, it’s only the blinker that isn’t working!!! Any fix

[@xBRAAAPx]

Do you get sound out of your other speakers for the radio? This sounds like a short/bad connection at the speaker which could cause this.

I’m going through the same problem 😔

​@@jacobvuna6462any fix?

[@mikerobichaud7683]

Hey, thanks for this info, is it possible that they give you a shotty battery from new? My truck has been doing this when it's cold since I bought it new and that's why I always ruled it out?

[@xBRAAAPx]

Any solution? I bought a brand new battery and installed it which fixed my issue for a bit but now the same thing again. I even charged my battery and everything and still same issue, guess I'll go get it tested.

[@mannypadilla7047]

Can this be a recall I've seen a bulletin on Google # 14315...

Thank you in advance

Didn’t fix mine with new battery. I put voltage gauge and there no drop in voltage at startup. Been happening for two years.

[@chadtownsend6593]

This is wrong I have had everything tested battery and everything. But the symptoms ur talking is spot on

[@notasolution]

Battery replacement solved my issue

[@craigcraigster5605]

I have 2015 GMC Canyon and same thing happens to me. Replaced battery. Even a new battery will do this if the truck sits too long in the cold and get run down. Beware that your automatic all wheel drive will not work as well. I found out during a snowstorm. GM should correct as this is a dangerous fault. Dealers are aware but say they have no fix.

[@jaiversubiajr8921]

What if I already got a new battery.. today I was going to get an oil change but turns on I didn’t and the guy turnt off the oil change light and the radio didn’t want to work

I cant guarantee it obviously, but if you have the same exact symptoms like shown in the video and your battery is pretty old or original, theres a good chance that that is all you need. If you have an advanced auto parts near you or another parts store that offers a free battery life check, if you go there and ask them to test it, if the battery is the culporate, the test should come back as the battery being weak or having a dead cell etc. I would get your battery tested to be sure first. Hopefully that's all it is!

I must say, it's definitely not 100% but if you have the same exact symptoms and your battery is older, it may be that simple, worked for my truck, but I know it does not fix everybody's issue. I'd recommend getting your battery tested before buying a new battery without knowing it's the issue. Good luck!
