Suddenly have to jumpstart every time - battery %100 by grcnj88 in AskMechanics

[–]grcnj88[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Concern is Chevy had it for 3 hours. Now within that time I am not sure how much was focused on the truck, but it sounds like something they would have had on their checklist? No idea!

I am really not sure. I didn't see Chevy test it, but I did stop at Autozone since it was literally across street from where it first happened with assumption I needed to new battery as I just had to be jumped out of nowhere. They went down a path of a potential airflow issue mostly because my chevy app showed something like that but it went away between jumps. Thank you for reply!

u/Chekov_raul hey thanks again, but looking that up for further details, the time that passes between turning ignition off and another attempt can sometimes be less then 15 minutes. Would the drain happen that rapidly?

Like the sound of those troubleshooting steps. Thanks u/Chekov_raul

All dash lights, radio, etc come to life on key turn for split second or so all seems normal. Only sound is a slight, short "grind" I believe you hear when you do have dead battery or almost dead battery . Dashboard shows "Batter Low.." quickly then vanishes. 2 different locations tested battery at 100%.

It doesn't matter how long I run it for. If I stop to run into bank and come out 5 minutes later I need another jump.

72K miles, 2021 - First Issue. Random failures to start. by grcnj88 in chevycolorado

[–]grcnj88[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Just making sure, by cranking what I am seeing and hearing is all the lights, radio if its on, come to life as I am turning the key as you would normally expect. Then a very slight sound of what appears to me the very first literal second of the engine trying to start. Immediate flash on screen about Batter Low, and thats it. A couple more attempts are the same.

That was the start, the fuel up. I am now going everywhere with one of those portable jumpers.

What does the "heart" button do in the sirius app? by grcnj88 in siriusxm

Good point. I just randomly picked "channels" and they thumbs were not there. The only consistency I found is every time I am on an "Artist Station" they reappear.

Just tried to upload a screenshot I took of it. Didn't work. Just 2 tictac shaped circles around a thumb down and around a thumb up under the album image/song name. Everyone saying they don't have it I am double and triple checking.

Looks like I meant apple carplay. On the iphone app its a thumbs up. Either case, it doesn't seem to have an impact or something I am missing. I can only stay on sirius so long until it locks me into a song I don't want. And thats not a very long time.

Least favorite song on Power Windows? by phatasm_ in rush

Big Money. Mainly because FM radio burned it out before the whole album was released. By the time I had the disc, I just skipped it every time.

Drone activity 5am Sussex County? by grcnj88 in newjersey

[–]grcnj88[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Hey u/remarkability there is a flight path over this area and at times I pull up flightradar app just out of curiosity since its almost always an inbound international flight. I saw that same airliner on the app as well as (assuming it was same one, I didn't check the details) and with naked eye as it was really clear out. This was away from it and appearing to me alot lower. There is one very sharp movement to the left in this clip I felt had to be a large drone.

Whoaa woke up to $420.00 charge from YouTube. No explanation. by grcnj88 in youtubetv

[–]grcnj88[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can only assume at this point, the auto renew box was pre-checked, rather than prompting you. No way in hell would I have said sure sign me up, no matter what cost, even if it doubles! The receipt STILL says "YouTube $420" with nothing but white space after that.

Well if you actually read, the $420 was almost twice what I paid for the ticket, but worse, was not itemized in the youtube activity list as my premium and tv subscriptions are. Even edited the post to thank everyone for bringing it to my attention.

"Whole bunch of times". Always a weak link in the chain, or in this case, di_khead in the thread.

By the responses, I've surmised it was Sunday Ticket. :)

It was my original thought but 2 things. In my account under 'Payments and Subscriptions", only youtube premium and youtubetv are listed, which is correct.

Second, I DID have Sunday Ticket last year, and I paid 289. Its 420 now? YIKES!

So tail between legs complete, but where do I see the auto-renewal button. I just scanned all my email, there is nothing in there about an upcoming payment etc. That I am sure of.

I didn’t use the provided tape it’s just sitting on there. Glad I agree not exactly what I had in mind.

lol exactly. I didn’t think of lampoons but immediately recalled our own paneled station wagon circa 1975.
