207: Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor
About this episode
A 2015 Chevrolet Traverse with a no-crank issue leads to a deep dive into multiple electrical failures, likely caused by a lightning strike. The diagnostic journey uncovers no communication with the ECM, a faulty fuse box, a shorted fuel pump control module, and a BCM with internal shorts causing turn signals to stay on. The episode highlights detailed testing methods, GM network architecture, and the complexities of diagnosing intertwined module failures. The host shares insights on interpreting test results and the unusual challenges posed by this vehicle's condition.
Today on the show I'm sharing a case study on a 2015 Chevrolet Traverse. This vehicle has a strange amount of damaged electrical components that seemed to have failed all at once. Join me as I walk you through our diagnostic process to solve this one!
