- For the two years we have owned this Tahoe and we have not had any issues knock on wood right. After returning home from vacation we went visit with our daughter. When we went to leave the Tahoe would not start. Like the battery was dead the click sound. Luckily for us, she lives close approx. 20 miles, so we had the Tahoe towed home. Watch the video to see the repair...SHOCKING

Brother, today my wife called me saying that my Escalade wouldn't start but it had full power so I left work early trying to figure out the issue. I tried it out then figured the battery may not have enough voltage so I pulled it and took it to O'Reilly's for a charge. They said it was 100% good and needed no charge so I went back to where the car stayed. Stranded put the battery back in and was breaking my head trying to start it. Watched this video and immediately after seeing what you did I did the same thing and the Escalade starts perfectly with zero issues. Thank you so much brother. I guarantee you had I taken it to the dealership they would have turned my pockets inside out.
I'm glad it helped you out...

I am a professional chauffeur, regularly pushing my 2019 Suburban beyond the 265,000-mile mark. Yesterday, after a trip to Ithaca, NY, my car refused to start upon returning home to Maryland. Panic set in until I stumbled upon this review. The troubleshooting tips provided here not only saved me from a potential towing nightmare but also got my Suburban running smoothly again. As a chauffeur, time is of the essence, and this review was a game-changer. Thank you for the invaluable help!
Thanks for the tip. I had the no crank issue on my 2015 Chevy suburban. I watched your video and sure enough that's what it was. Thanks again!
Thank you so much, 10 degrees out and wont start, planning on taking everything apart, outside, but decided to watch your video, Thank God, Thank God Thank God. It worked
@Kris Flerek, and thats why i posted the video was to help folks out. Keep an eye on it because unfortunately for me it wasnt a permanent fix. It did last a few months. Thanks for watching and commenting.

This video saved me $425- in tow fees and more than 4 hours waiting for tow… really worked !!
Hello Tony,
You sound as shocked as I was when the truck fired up lol. And that is 100% of the intent of this video was to get you back on the road and get you home. Thanks for watching and commenting...

Thanks man, but holy smokes.. to save you all five minutes of pain, start either at 05:45 and if you want to save an additional two minutes start at 07:38 unfortunately this did not work for me. 🤷♂️
Thanks, I have the problem you have described with our 2020 Tahoe and will try it when I get home today!
@James, vehicles as New as these should not be having problems like this. Not to mention how much we pay for them. I ended replacing my starter about 6 months later. And this summer the dealer repaired my ac same issue as the recall cracked condenser. It was covered under warranty. Good luck, Thanks for watching and commenting...

Great video, will definitely keep this in mind if this ever happens. Thank's for sharing 👍😊
@Anthony Macneil, Hopefully you will never need this tip and your vehicle always starts. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Saved me today. 2016 burb wouldnt start and i had a tow truck coming. Started watching youtube videos for any ideas and this worked immediately. Canceled the tow and went home. Thank you.
Worked on my 2015 Tahoe. All lights and radio was working but wouldn’t crank at all so I knew it probably wasn’t the battery, pulled the #36 fuse and put it back and it fires right up now. Thank you for sharing this video!
Happened again and the fuse thing didn’t work this time. So I got underneath and messed with the starter wires and tapped on the starter with a ratchet and that actually worked and it’s been starting ever since. Im thinking the starter is getting hung up every once in awhile.
You are a single mom of 7's life saver 🙌❤🙏 I was completely lost and sure the fix would cost me money I for sure did not have. GOD bless you! Thanks so much for sharing this

Thank you so much you just saved me hundreds i jist got my 18 tahoe and was in shocked it wouldnt start with only 66k miles on it
Had no start problem today. Was going to tear into diagnosis of starter in the morning - saw the video this evening so ran out to shop to try. Press every fuse (none appeared to be lose however) - I turned key and it started (several times). Not claiming victory but appears to have worked. Thank you for video!!
Thank you, Having trouble lately with my 2018 Tahoe lately. Can't wait to try.

I was shocked this worked! I will say none of them felt loose but it definitely worked after I did it so it’s definitely worth a try!
Thank you very much for posting this. You helped us a lot and the loose fuses were the problem.
Just did this to my 2019 suburban, it started clicking about 3 weeks ago and then the remote start stopped working. Mine turned on today after about 13 trys and it stressed me out!!!! I did this today and remote start works now too. Thank you so so much😭🙏🏼

Hi Mike,
I found your video after I searched why my Tahoo would not start, and I just used it Saturday no problem 2013, so when I get home today I’m going to pop off the side panel and check my fuses and push them in.
Thanks for the tip

@Linda, its the easiest thing you can try. I still get onstar notifications that something is wrong with my starter system. As long as it starts im not messing with it. Good luck...

Thanks for the tip. Just had the same issue on a 2018 Suburban Premier with Remote Start. It had recently come back from the body shop after an "involuntary deer hunt" (impact at front right corner). So my first thought was that the problem was related to the collision or repair. Remote start might have added an additional point of failure. I felt several fuses that were a little loose as you described. I pushed them all in and it started right up. You just saved me a lot of time and trouble, my friend. Thanks again for the video.
@Andrew Phillips, Im am glad the tip found the right person and it helped you out. Thanks for watching and commenting.

My 2015 Yukon Denali had the one click and no start just out of the blue, no signs trouble at all. I tried this and it didn't work, a new starter fixed it. Took less than 20 minutes!
@Ray Jax, thats what i ended up doing a few weeks ago. The fuse fix lasted a while but for me it wasnt a permanent fix. Thanks for watching and commenting...

I really hope this works on my 2015 silverado because I'm having the same problem that you described. I'll try it tomorrow. Thanks
@Simon George, I hope it is that simple of a fix for your silverado. Also check the fuses in the power distrabution fuse box under the hood. For me the fix lasted several months. I ended up yanking the starter off and getting it tested. It tested good at autozone. I reinstalled and was good for another month until last week. I replaced the starter because i think underload the starter was week. I had a 77 ironhead sportster that would do the same thing, thats another story. Good luck, thanks for watching and commenting.
Mike - Plus8Precision
did you get your silverado fixed?
mine just started doing it thursday friday brought to dealer they put in a new starter worked fine then last night after work would not start only way i could get it to start was by taking a metal pole i found at work and going inbetween the exhaust manifold and taping the solinoid like i use to do with my older chevys when they went bad gona go out and check this out its starting to snow today here in Maine and i plow so it has to start lolthanks for the video
@norman lapierre, mine has acted up again after i made this video. I did my own work, my truck was a couple thousand miles out of the 36000 mile warrantee. Took the starter out had it tested and it tested good put back in. Yesterday i had to work on it again 12v power supply cable worked itself loose. I put alittle removable locktite on it and tighten up the connection, fired up. I hope it lasts i never had this sort of trouble from a vehicle i bought new and paid as much as it cost. Very disappointed in GM.... thanks for watching and commenting.
Mike - Plus8Precision
Gm are scammers
I have a2018 tahoe with push to start. I thought I couldn't start my truck thinking it was because of my afm disabler so I took it out. Then I thought it wouldn't start because of my remote batteries so I changed them both. Then when it wouldn't start I changed from one key fob to another and now after seeing this video I said I'll check before I take the starter out and surely enough the fuses were kinda loose and not fully seated in there spots. I didn't see the number/spot for starter relay because I think that is under the hood but hopefully that is the reason I was having trouble starting my truck at random times. This has been going on for a few months and I believe if it was the starter it would have finally died by now and not restart after handful of attempts. I'll update my comment if starter ends up being the culprit or something else. Thanks for the video. I will see if my dad has that issue with his fuses. He recently changed out his starter.
Wow! amazing. same issue. problem SOLVED! Thank you!

Thanks Mike. Mine did same thing. Just stopped out of blue
Fuses all snug but pushed on them any way. Battery was REALLY hot burned my sons finger. Disconnected battery while we searched for problem. Meter showed battery was good. After 15 min, checking fuses and battery. Started right up.
Thank you. I’m going to find out shortly if this is the same issue. Ours is a 2020
I’m going to check this on my 2016 Denali now. I have had so many fuses loose like that with my car in the four years I’ve had it. I hope it works 🤞

I just had the same issue happen to me!! 2018 Tahoe 4WD LT. Wouldn't crank, but definitely not the battery (confirmed voltage, and trying to jump start wouldn't result in any starter engagement attempt). The fuses I had to push in were different though. I started with the ones that you showed in the video inside the passenger compartment (left/driver side of dashboard). I pushed all those in (they only go in a tiny amount--maybe 1/16", and takes a fair amount of force to get them to unseat from their worn-in position), but still no crank. So, I proceeded to look under the hood for the group normally located there. On the driver's side fender, there's a large fuse box (release catches are on the forward-facing side). I did half of the box toward the rear side of the vehicle--still nothing. Then I pushed another batch in (the ones on the front-of-truck side and toward the center of the truck), and it started!!! I was hoping to figure out exactly which one it was by having GF hold the key in the run position, but was concerned that might engage something longer than it should be engaged. So, I had her just check it after I pressed in a group of fuses. So, in my case it was something in a different fuse panel, but still solved the problem. Thank you sooooo much!!!!

My 2018 Silverado, would not start either. Checked the fuses all was fine. Took it to dealer, new starter and new ground cable. All under warranty.

Hi, Mike my GMC 2018 was running fine got home park. This morning it Wouldn't start at however the lights were on the alarm work. I called AAA they didn't even know how to open the hood had to tell the guy STOP! Was planning to take it to the dealer only hadn't for 5 months.
I pray this works for me,thank you and you and your family have a very blessed day.
Hop
@Carmen, i hope this works for you to. Judging by my comment more times than not it seems to work. I will say in some cases including mine it ended up not being a permanent fix. If you have a warranty that cover your drivetrain completely take advantage of that coverage. Thanks for watching and commenting...
Mike - Plus8Precision
Did it work?
My 1980 Oldsmobile will have that exact condition when the local fighter jet base has dozens of fighter jets flying over my house sometimes tree top level at 500 MPH, the remedy is to push all the fuses back in just like you just did and it starts right up. I just purchased a 2019 Tahoe for my son and I was just looking at your situation and it was coincidental to my beloved trusty Oldsmobile.

Thanks Mike, I'll try that.
Had a weird issue with my 2015 Tahoe. I would get the single click and then nothing, but as soon as I would let off the key, it would crank and start normally. Battery voltage tested fine and the alternator was putting out 13.9-14.6V depending on system load. So the delayed start issues was baffling me. I was preparing to pull the starter. Found this video and went out to check my fuse panel. Sure enough, all fuses were not completely seated. Pushed them in and attempted to start the Tahoe again. Strong inmediate start! It appears to have fixed my delayed start issue!
I have the same problem. 18 Tahoe with 45000 miles, battery tested good at the Napa.
@Big Al, my battery tested good as well. Your starter may also test good , mine did just before i replaced it several months after making this video. The best way to test is to check the signal wire on the starter. If you have power there while trying to start the truck, its probably the starter. This should probably be a recall but it wont us owners will have to suffer. Thanks for watching and commenting...
Mike - Plus8Precision
I have a 2018 GMC Yukon that is doing the same thing... it's recently experiencing a very slow crank (sounds like the battery is dying). But, when it starts up its fine. I'll check out this side fuse panel and get back to ya.
@Goku of Earth, i hopes its an easy fiv for you. I also emails from onstar telling me there was an issue with the starting system. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Mike - Plus8Precision
@@Plus8Precision My fuses on the side panel were all tightly seated. Did not change the slow crank… Is there a link for the OnStar message for the starter problem? I take it this is for all GM SUVs: Tahoe, Yukon, Escalade. 2015 to 2020?
@Goku of Earth search for "Service Code SAC004, thats the code onstar sent to me. Its for doing a voltage drop on the battery cables. If you do the procedure and its at spec i think it recommends to replace the starter. Hope this helps you out.

Just tried this yesterday we will see if this helps intermittent no start issue on my 2018 Tahoe 5.3L LS. It seemed like fuse were kinda loose its hard to explain but pushed on all of them to make sure fuse pins were making full contact. I do live in a dirt road area so lots of weird road vibrations, bumps, potholes that could make fuses wiggle out over time which seems like GM would have tested something like this. We will see. Thanks for the video.
Had same issue on my 2018 Chevy Tahoe Patrol Car. This helped out a lot. Thanks

Having the same with my 17 patrol car just replaced the battery it helped then the issue came back, assumed because it was cold that was the issue, but a Google search later it’s a common problem gonna have the shop try this fix hopefully it works
Mine is doing the same thing. Also throwing codes. Flashing engine lite, traction control, and all the lights ,but no crank. It will go for weeks then out of the blue no crank. Also the misfire will go away then out of the blue come back. Not only that ,but my alternator is not working properly. Thanks for the video, I'm going the check my fuses before it goes to dealership.
Thank you this kind of worked but my problem was the wire harness fuses were tight and didn't fix the problem but a pussh on the harness and it started

When you buy replacement fuse blocks (Dodge TIPM comes to mind) fuses and relay's are not fully seated, just like yours. Maybe it's like that when they are assembled too.
Hello Bart, thanks for the info that's what I think is going on. It's something in their assembly process. I have never bought or used an aftermarket fuse block so I didn't know they came that way. Do they come that way for a reason safety maybe? Thanks for watching and commenting...

what year silverado? my '18 is a pain in the ass
thanks for the video. mine were loose but it didn't fix my issue. :(
Thanks for the tip, unfortunately it didn’t help with my 2015 Chevy Silverado.. this is the second time it’s happened to my truck. The issue periodically happens, sometimes it will start on the 10th crank and sometimes on the 100th crank. I naturally assumed the starter was the issue, I did a few quick tests while it was in the vehicle, it tested fine, checked all the fuses and relays, everything checked out fine, tested the ignition, it tested fine. Battery is brand new and fully charged. I then removed the starter and bench tested it, it checked out fine, before reinstalling the starter I cleaned up all grounds and power connections and applied Dielectric grease to all the connectors. After doing all of this my truck fired right up with no hiccups. that was 6-8months ago. unfortunately the issue has returned. Before I jumped into taking everything apart I did some research to see if anyone else has figured out what the actual issue is as well as a permanent fix for the this annoying problem, there doesn’t seem to be one quick fix for this headache. I’ve gone ahead and tested my starter again while it’s in the truck, it tested out good, I’ve tested out my ignition again, it tests good, I’ve gone through all my fuses and relays again, they all test good, I’ve pulled out the started and bench tested it again, it tested good. I cleaned up all the grounds and connections again and reinstalled the starter! Unfortunately it didn’t work this time around. I’ve gone through all the relays and fuses under the hood as well as the fuse panel on the drivers side, including the inside and undersides of the fuse panels to check for any sort of corrosion, everything is spotless and tightly sealed! There is a run crank fuse behind the driver side interior fuse panel that apparently sometimes gets corroded according to another gentleman’s UA-cam video, I’m assuming that when you pushed in the fuses it completed circuit or allowed a little extra juice to to run through the circuit.
There is also a spliced wire in the main harness under the driver side kick panel/sill that apparently people have issues with as well according to another persons UA-cam video. Like I’ve said I’ve gone through everything that I can think of as well as Tried out some suggestions from people like yourself on UA-cam. I’m all out of options now so I’ve decided to order up a new starter, the last thing I wanted to do was throw parts at my truck. The scanner still isn’t pulling up any codes and I’m tired of banging my head against the wall. After going through the comments on your video, there’s a couple other things that I can check out but to be honest they seem like a long shot, but just to be safe I will go through all the suggestions! Thanks again!
@JoJo, hello Joe so if you read thru the comments you might read that i did end up replacing my starter. Ypur story is much like my story with not wanting to just throw parts at the truck. The final test i did was simply testing the signal wire on the starter when the problem finally came back. Every time i turn the key there was power, so i tapped on the solenoid and i could see sparks under the plastic housing. In my opinion the solnoid is a pos. Mine i could move with my hand genuine gm parts. I hope this settles your mind about the new starter. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Mike - Plus8Precision
@@Plus8Precision, I did see your comment on pushing the fuses in was a temp fix and you wound up replacing the starter. There are many reasons to this no crank no start issue, I also read in another comment from some else that it was their back up safety sensor on the rear bumper, there is also another video claiming that it has something to do with the onstar system putting the vehicle in theft mode. I went through absolutely every scenario. Even with the starter testing good in the vehicle and on the bench, I replaced the starter and it fired right up, fingers crossed that it was actually the starter. My comment listed off most of not all of the issues that I could find on the internet In hopes that it’ll help someone else and point them in a direction and help them out. I appreciate your reply

Spent hours diagnosing then hit UA-cam as a last resort and Thankyou to P8P this WORKS!!!!. Was thinking it would be nice if gm would consider making a recall or publicized notice at least of this obvious flaw in their product like so many more I have seen over the years. They would prolly get a lot more valued customers, just saying.

Hello Kidd, maybe you have a bad cable then. In one of comments i talk about the gm proceedure for checking your cables. It checks to see if your voltage drops off when you turn the key. Onstar sent me an email when this happened to me, i will search my email. Thanks for watching and commenting...

Gonna go see if this is my issue 🤞

@ZOU M, Thanks for commenting Im glad it could help you out.

Same problem, tried this, cranked once and not cranking anymore. Any tips?
Hello Shulo, you could try doing a voltage drop test at the starter. If it's not even clicking you might have blown a big fuse in the distribution box under the hood. Thanks for watching and commenting...if you like my channel please subscribe.

He I have 2007 chevy tahoe lt 5.3 I having the same problems no crank no start no power can you give me a ideal what it could be or sound like please
Hello Gary, I would verify your starting circuit. The solenoid on these starters are not robust. Please subscribe to my channel.

Any service department at a Chevy dealership talk about this? My 2018 Chevy suburban did exactly the same thing. We were out of town. Towed it to the dealership the next day it started. They can’t find anything wrong?
Hello Gregory, in my case gm sent the onstar roadside assist tech out and they didn't find anything. I didn't figure this till a day later after checking the ground behind the right front wheel well cover. I just would get the click and then nothing just silence when you turned the key. So I checked the fuses even though I didn't think any were blown. And that when I noticed they were not seated.
I have never heard anything from Chevy so if their aware they are playing stupid! Thanks for watching and commenting...

Hi I'm goin tru the same thing, hit a bump and since then it hasn't been started I can't even get it to crank over ans have alot of lights coming. On suburban only has 13k miles on it wth gm it's sad so much money for nothing
Hello Joe, I know what you mean you spend good to be let down. My ac has gone out twice since I have owned my tahoe. It was a covered repair but no loaner car and they had the truck over a week and a half. Imagine how great the electric cars will be! Thanks for watching and commenting...
Mike - Plus8Precision
How many miles? When you went to start was it just one click, no crank? Just lighted up dash?
Hello Jesse, If I recall correctly we had 44k miles on the tahoe. We were out of warranty at that time. So I was forced to diagnose and repair the truck. Thanks for watching and commenting, please consider subscribing to my channel.

Thanks
@@Plus8Precision Not sure if you seen my other comments. I noticed you changed out the starter as well? Have you had any issues beyond that? Also I noticed on a few videos, there are fuses hidden on top of the battery housing, under the plastic shield. They are direct link fuses that a hooked up to wires running out. I seen a few videos of those plates going bad.
I currently have a 17 tahoe premier with this exact issue. But I just checked fuses all where steady in place.
Hello Jesse, I tested the signal wire to make sure when the key was turned it was telling the starter to start, which in my case it was. So I was comfortable at that point replacing the starter. I replaced the starter about 6 months after discovering the fuses being disturbed. Since replacing the starter, knock on wood, it been fine. The solenoid housing on the starter was loose, I think their starters are junk. I didn't mess with any fuseable links. I did do a voltage drop test on the battery cable and they both tested good. I hope this helps you out.

How are you able to start the car with the key? Mine is a 2018 Yukon XL and I don't see any key hole. Only way to start it is pushing the button.
Hello tri vu, my tahoe came with a key not the push button engine start option. Thanks for watching and commenting...
Mike - Plus8Precision
@@Plus8Precision unfortunately mine is not the fuses. Changing the starter this weekend and hope that will fixed it.
@tri vu I ended up doing the same thing appropriately 6 months later when the weather was worse. Good luck with that project.
Mine was like that 2month later my transmission went out with no check engine light 😫 did some research come to find out it’s a common issue with that model 😭 2015 Chevy Tahoe lt own it for 1year 12300 miles 🤦🏾♂️
Hello Jacob, my transmission is shot too! I have owned this truck since it was new and I have never had so many issues! You certainly do not get what you paid for. Thanks for watching and commenting and please subscribe if you haven't already done so.

Had this happen (no crank/start, one click only) on my 2019 suburban Turned out it was because I was on a hill (just a slight incline) and it triggered a safety of some sort when i parked. Had to force it into neutral (it was stuck), roll back a couple inches, park again, then it started. Figured I'd share in case it helps someone. I'd parked on steeper hills daily, we live on a mountain, yet the slight incline at a Subway parking lot triggered it. Maybe I slammed it into park and took my foot off the break too fast, I'll never know.
That's was goods I'm learn more
I wish it was that simple for me 2019 Tahoe USB ports no power infotainment system not working Black screen of death ☠️. Any suggestions would help.
Sorry I am not a mechanic but, I think another channel did a similar repair. south main auto look thru his library of videos
99% of the FUSES I have checked in the past few years hags been like this. Haters gonna hate. Ty
Hello, I don't work on cars so for me it was a shock. An even bigger shock when I seated them and the truck started! Thanks for watching and commenting, please consider subscribing to my channel...

Having similar issues with my 2018 Chevy Silverado
Hello Ernesto, reading through the comments maybe helpful if pushing in the fuses didnt do the trick. Several months after making this video i did end up replacing my starter. It was in the winter here so i didnt video it. For me the most effective way to determine if you need to replace your starter is check your signal wire. Do this while some tries to start the truck. I could get to mine without getting under the truck or even removing the passenger wheel. Thanks for watching and commenting...

I really hope this tip finds the person that needs it...
Mike - Plus8Precision
yea ME...wifes tahoe same thing...did you notice the gauges do a die out while driving?..dead dash
@@templarknight1981 No we never had any issues while driving. Our issues were only upon starting or trying to start the truck. Good luck with tracking down your issue its frustrating i know. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@Plus8Precision it just left on a tow truck..the guy backs up to it I hit the remote start after I pushed the fuses in (BTW were the same as yours they all went in a little) and it started...WTH ...I made the mistake of turning it off but I wanted to check to see if that was the issue unfortunately it did not start again so off it goes to dealer..another bill I'm sure
thanks for the video and time
@@templarknight1981 the fuses under the hood pushed in a little as well. If you read any other comments i ended up replacing my starter. I did the job myself bought the ac Delco starter off rockauto. I didnt make a video because i had to get the job done asap. But the job went quick little more than an hour in the cold.
@@Plus8Precision hey just an update the dealer found the rear sensors in the bumpers ...you know the ones to tell you that the person hasn't moved yet... they were corroded and causing an issue in the communications...so how that has anything to do with the starting is beyond me so they say they disconnected them and car starts fine. i'm skeptical since I find nothing of this mentioned anywhere so something. to keep in mind.
2015 Chevy Tahoe push to start. Just replaced the battery. Attempt to start, just clicks…help
Hello Eve,
Unfortunately there isn't an easy answer you will have to trouble shoot the issue. Put this in Google and do a search "Service Code SAC004". This will outline a process to eliminate different items in the starting circuit. I did end up replacing the starter after the issue came back. I tested the signal wire on the starter for voltage when trying to start the tahoe and I always had good voltage. What that means is bad starter or bad ground at the starter mounting location. I hope this helps, you can also read some of the comments too. Thanks for watching and commenting...
