I had a bad battery as well after 5 months it died. Dealership tested it, said it infact had a bad cell. They said that was the first one on an H3 they had seen (right!). I was in and out in 45 min. I had mine on a charger the night before driving to the dealer, when I turned it off at the service entrance it would not crank back up to pull it into the bay! good thing I didn't stop for fuel or something on my way to the dealer.

The Optima fit guide online doesn't list the HUMMERs.
  • Do you know which model/part number you used? (Was it the 34 series red top?)
  • How did it fit (e.g., taller, wider, etc.)?
  • How did you secure it (e.g., gravity, strap or other)?
  • Any pictures of it sitting pretty in your engine compartment?

Well,

no wise ass answers from me on this subject (thank goodness, HUH)

This is a great subject to discuss (man I wish I had something sassy to say)

I carry a rechargeable jump starter in both my vehicles. Obviously not a fix to your problem but they will get you home.

The dealer wound up replacing the clutch position switch. It has been starting without problems for the last two weeks. :excited: :excited:

Good dealer, they read their bulletins and preliminary informational bulletins.:clapping:

Do you guys have any more details regarding this service bulletin, e.g., what is the bulletin number, what does it say, how do you test for the problem/issue, etc.?
