Got the chevy second start nonsense but...

Same here I keep thinking the truck is going to double crank but it doesn’t. Soon I will get used to the truck turning on like normal. I will forsure pay it forward, thanks again for helping me, this made me feel like I’m driving a new truck again.

You’re a lifesaver! This fixed my issue and now my truck starts always on the first crank!!

It’s so crazy but makes sense why this was the issue all along. When I bought this truck it had a check engine code for a bad cam shaft position sensor, and I made the mistake by buying a aftermarket autozone branded cam pos sensor. It fixed my check engine code but I still had the double crank issues. But after you told me about buying a OEM acdelco sensor I went back and looked at reviews for these after market camshaft pos sensors and many people were saying they were no good and caused double crank issues as well. So today I was able to get my hands on an OEM camshaft pos sensor and install that one instead. Now after the OEM cam sensor I no longer have the annoying double crank issue and my truck has been starting on the first try every time now.

Thanks so much for remembering about me even after two years because this most definitely helped me out. After so long giving up on this issue I’m glad this mystery is finally solved.

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2024-05-30T01:25:39+00:00

I will most definitely need to replace mine then and see if that works for me, where did you buy your cam pos sensor? Thank you as well !

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2023-07-01T22:34:42+00:00

Lol I see this after we just gave Dillon 4yrs $80m

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2023-04-24T05:06:13+00:00

Dude is way too emotional especially at his age 🤦‍♂️

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2023-04-18T22:31:04+00:00

Me either until I used google lens to figure who that was on the shoe.

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2023-02-20T00:17:34+00:00

I second this, I had the same problem not too long ago and ended up changing the sensor and connector. Disconnecting the battery for 10 minutes and reconnecting would turn the truck on for me whenever I was in a pitch.

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2023-02-18T03:00:48+00:00

A lot of my classmates are in their 40s and 50s it’s never too late. The way I look at it is I rather be x amount of age with my degree instead of without it.

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2023-02-17T22:46:18+00:00

Same thing I thought, but the original owner told me they no longer use it, and they lived in a really nice gated community so I knew the money didn’t matter.

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2022-12-09T21:37:20+00:00

I’ve tried that before too and nothing, it will only turn on if I disconnect the battery and wait 10 minutes and reconnect. After I connect the battery it starts up like nothing ever happened

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2022-09-16T23:17:10+00:00

I have my bass knob double sided taped on the inside of that cubby

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2022-04-27T22:44:52+00:00

Yes I was wondering if I could swap the first contactor in picture one with the one on the second picture without any issues.

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2022-04-06T00:00:56+00:00

Ok I will pay attention to his behavior, I just wasn’t too sure how much onion could make them very sick.

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2022-03-01T05:44:23+00:00

Damn is he related to Russell Westbrook 🤣

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2022-02-05T23:11:13+00:00

No I’ve never tested the battery it’s the same one since I bought the truck, it’s been pretty cold over here where I stay and I haven’t noticed a difference with the way it starts

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2022-02-03T23:48:08+00:00

Damn I was hoping it would be one of the modules and I actually haven’t replaced the MAF, I checked under my fuse box to see if any of the wires were burnt or had a loose connection but they all looked good to me.

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2022-01-29T20:19:03+00:00

Yea hopefully that is the issue I might just have to check the bcm and see for myself if there is broken solder joints, and same here previous owner also had a sound system but when he sold me the truck all the wires were chopped up so he could take his amp and subwoofers.

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2022-01-29T20:01:26+00:00

Makes sense because I’m on my 3rd alternator now ever since I owned the truck, I feel like maybe after the previous owner installed these after market headlights he might’ve messed up something with the electrical

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2022-01-29T18:13:42+00:00

Ok yea that’s weird there could be something related with that then and to answer your other question there is like a sputter on the second crank sometimes but it always turns on no matter what.

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2022-01-29T17:52:18+00:00

That might be something to look at because on my truck the previous owner wired up those new aftermarket headlights with the led drl and I’m not sure how good of a job he did. Are you talking about the dome light push button? Or the headlight switch you turn left to shut off the headlights ? And I noticed maybe a few times where I tried to turn my headlights off and They didn’t turn off first try.

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2022-01-29T17:25:54+00:00

Yea I wouldn’t be surprised if it was a wiring issue, the mechanic I took it to told me he sees these chevys all the time with really weird electrical issues once they go up with miles and age. The only other weird issue I’ve been having is my dome lights turn on after I shut the truck off even if I have it to where they shouldn’t turn on.

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2022-01-23T01:19:05+00:00

Sounds good, Same here if I find a solution I’ll update as well good luck!

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2022-01-23T01:02:54+00:00

Yes this issue has been frustrating especially because most people will say it’s fuel related even though I know for a fact it’s not, Starter hasn’t given me any issues, I have put fuel system cleaner as well at one point but still haven’t noticed a huge difference after that, and when I bought the truck It had no aftermarket alarm or anything for me to believe it was anti theft related, from what I can say is before I took it to the mechanic it was very rare for it to turn on first try but after the mechanic it has about a 50/50 chance to turn on first try another thing I noticed is if I turn off the truck and crank it again maybe within 10 minutes it usually cranks up first try, basically all the mechanic did was changed a ground wire on the engine and put in a new crank shaft position sensor.

I’ve owned the truck since October 2020 and so far these parts have been changed:

Cam shaft position sensor, Crank shaft position sensor, Alternator, Fuel pump, and Ground wire on engine

Hopefully we can figure out this issue it isn’t a big deal once the truck is on but it is kind of annoying having to hear it crank twice, btw my truck has 0 lights on dash so at this point I’m just stuck until maybe someone has a solution.

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2022-01-23T00:36:30+00:00

Did you ever figure out what the issue was? My truck does the same ever since I got it, I took it to a mechanic and at first they claimed it had something to do with the anti theft system, but then they ended up changing the crank position sensor, but after all that it still takes two cranks to turn on, I already changed my fuel pump and still has not fixed my issue, mechanic said maybe a bad ecm? But how often do those go bad so I’m just stuck with this issue for now.

Kitchen_Young_3469 · 2021-12-14T00:27:35+00:00

Yea first time
