2007 Chevy Tahoe radio/turn signal issues
Recently, my FM radio reception started to get poor. Nice to have a Bose stereo with lousy reception. Anyway, the antenna appears to be ok. NOW, a new problem is occurring, - uncertain if it's related, BUT, sometimes when I turn the truck on, radio doesn't work at all, no clock, nothing. Along with that, the turn signals don't make sound - they work, but no sound.
Any ideas before I drag this to the dealer and they charge me an arm and two legs? TIA

Well, I did take it to the dealer, and of course, they can't find anything "wrong", after hooking it up looking for codes. So they tell me to bring it in when the problem is happening. Like THAT is convenient?

Depending on how handi-capable you are, you could remove and reconnect the connections at the back of the radio.. that is where I would start...
You may also want to see if the biasing the ignition switch has any bearing on it (wiggle the key a bit back and forth to see if the radio comes on)
Just a thought, do the interior lights work when the radio is not? if so maybe a door switch sensor?

In2Pro - thank you for that feedback. You know, I never looked to see if the dome lights would work while I was having the issue, or did I try to jiggle the key. Hmmm, I WILL try that the next time it happens (of course it hasn't happened as frequent now that I had the dealer look at it.). Even though I am a female I am pretty handy (I tear apart 4 wheelers and put them all back together, so I'll give it a shot if it happens! THANK you for your ideas and I will keep you posted!!!!!!! You rock!
