2007 Avalanche - Multiple Problems
If anyone could possibly help me figure out what is going on with my '07 Avalanche, I would really appreciate it.
Problems started with the Oil Pressure Sensor going bad.....is there an easy way to replace this? My '07 Suburban has the same issue.
Then the speakers in the doors stopped working all the time. The (2) pillar speakers have always worked. The other four work intermittanly, sometimes all 4, sometimes only one or two of them.....I was told by the dealer that they were blown, but as they work well when they are working that is not the case.
About 3 weeks after the speakers started acting up, my front drivers side window stopped working. All of the other controls work from the drivers side control panel, ie: door locks, mirrors and other windows.
I have also gone through 3 batteries with this truck.... and now also sometimes the truck starts up after cranking for a while and sometimes it just gives a loud clicking noise, but if you holod the key forward it will eventually start!!!!!
If anyone has any ideas on any of these problems you help would be appreciated......

the problems to me seem to be separate issues, each unrelated to each other.
the oil pressure sensor and screen are common problems...replace part. It is located behind the intake manifold, rear drivers side. if you have the right extention and socket you can remove the sensor without removing the intake manifold.
when the radio/speaker fault is active....check for voltage to the speakers. If you have a tester automotive speaker, sub it in. if you get not voltage or the known good speaker doesn't work in all door positions, either the head unit or amp (depending on your radio options) are nfg. if the test speaker works...your speakers are nfg.
