Hello all, I'm Scott, and I have a 2013 2.4 with some issues. This has been a somewhat of an ongoing issue, and need some advice.
My equinox has been having some electrical issues. If I try to remote start, it loses all electric power like the battery is missing. If I tap on the PCM, it's like something is coming back to life. If I use only the key, it starts every time. When I'm driving, the dash and radio will occasionally "reboot" for only a second, and it says "Service Stabilitrak" on the cluster and I lose tire pressure info. Last night I was able to get it to do that twice by either activating the abs or traction control on icy roads. I'm not a mechanic by any stretch, and I'm trying to get as much info as I can for my mechanic. Last night the exterior lights also flicked off then on very quickly. Not sure if I should just parts cannon with electrical parts, or pay up with diagnostics.
Has this ever occurred with anyone else? If you have thoughts or questions, please ask. It has 105xxx miles, always maintained. Oil changes every 3000 ish miles, had chains done once already under that piston replacement bulletin about 60000 ago. Have had no real issues until this. Replaced 2 hubs, one front one rear, and normal maintenance parts. Thanks ahead of time, I'm not on the pocket computer a whole lot.
