Default Re: TRUCK KEEPS DYING EVERY OTHER WEEK

I called my Tech at Hummer today and told everything you guys have said and he said only the one about the onstar coming on sounds legit and that i wouldnt have a battery problem if it was the ignition or starter. I told him to look into it but he said that was the least plausible cause which i think now is the most plausible and said that is not a road to go down and said why was the battery low if that was the problem.


The more i think about it, the 4 or 5 times it has died, every single time i first used the remote start and nothing would happen and then go to start the truck manually and it is dead, not clicking, no turning over of starter untill a quick jump. I just remembered that pattern with the remote start and wonder if it has something to do with the starter/ignition in that way. The only thing i dont understand is why would jumping it make it start if it was an ignition problem. I think ill try starting it everytime now with the remote too see if that drains it or see what happens.
