For me it was the passenger ground, it was laying next to me air filter lol

I have the same thing but when I turn it to the left it doesn't do anything

The grounding blocks can cause all kinds of issues including false error my recommendation is to get rid of those pesky grounding blocks and and connected the all to one ground on the firewall. Also go and sign up for the 355 group on the internet they are colorado canyon enthusiasts and they will also be able to share their knowledge with you. Good luck

Hi - oh my great video! I’m also having issues with my 2006 Canyon. Recently put her back on the road (I’m not a mechanic but eager to learn). Everything was going great until suddenly my cluster gauges started with ADHD, work/not work etc. check engine light still lit up (always has been) and anti theft light but nothing else. Pulled it all out - checks out fine. A week later my cig lighters quit working. Next when I was replacing a rear speaker - no luck. Tried 3 different speakers in that same spot - nothing- but 2 of the other speakers work in the truck. Yesterday I’m driving on the freeway and drivers start yelling at me telling me I have NO BRAKELIGHTS!!! So now this is the 4th electrical issue in 3 weeks that I still can’t figure out. I’ve checked every single ground I can find and cleaned and reconnected them. I’ve replaced fuses and bulbs. I went on a wild goose chase for some G300 under drivers seat under carpet- took both seats and carpet out and did those grounds too. I’m at a total loss for what’s going on here. My battery is new, I’m gonna try replacing the Mega Fuse because that one does have some corrosion (only fuse i didn’t do). I’ve put so much work into this truck and have very little money- without brake lights and cluster she’s basically a decoration in my driveway. PLEASE HELP

I have a gmc canyon 2012 & my ignition won’t switch on after I grounded my ignition wire trying to put a radio in but my fuses are all ok & im now stumped can anybody help??

Best video on the web about these trucks thanks for your content. Straight and to the point.

I got issues with my door controls not working so I think it’s a ground I replaced window regulator and when I put direct power to it it works

thanks for the video,,mine you put left signal it would flash left,,when you put right it would flash the left isntead,,,the ground by the air box right side, was bad,,i cut the gound wires put a connector and ground it,,in a way it was the factory black thing that was bad internelly,,,,

I fear I'm having the self same issues. I'm replacing the headlight switch now but am dubious about it solving all my issues. I do know the switch is bad because the dimmer wheel wreaks havoc when you touch it so we shall see. I've been having intermittent turn signal issues and cab light issues for awhile, but I did get my hvac resistor lined out. :)

I will never buy a non Japanese vehicle again

I haven’t had any real major problems with my Colorado until my chassis control module went out at 96,000 miles and have been waiting for the part for it’s on back order!! Don’t know when this piece will get in so I’m a little piste off for this manufacturer should have this on hand!! It’s time to call GM and give them hell!!!

On mine, the turn signals work but the "clicker" doesn't make noise any more.

On a 2008 Suzuki xl7 show me how to change alternative out

Mine has has a bad headlight switch, broke wires in the door hinge area and broke injector and coil control wires... On my third instrument cluster.. they randomly die and sometimes come back on worse and worse... Driver window wouldn't work after the battery went dead.. Turned out to be a bad door switch. Heater speed control switch burned up along with 3 or 4 heater resistors and plug harnesses... Chevys are awesome. Frame only had to be welded once so far...

I have weird problem with my 06 canyon. Battery is good have had it tested multiple times. When I go to start it sometimes starts up no problem. And sometimes I have electric power dashboard lights etc but then when I go to crank it lose all power no start no crank no dash lights or outside lights no electric power whatsoever have cleaned all grounds and battery terminals. Any help? Thinking ignition switch

Thank you for your info It's really been helpful sir.

Thanks for the video. I think I have the exact chipper and the briggs engine broke, so I'm looking at buying a predator engine as well. Do you have a finished video of the chipper shredder?

Check your grounds.

Joeseph Payne helpppp 06 2.8 Colorado. 118k Runs fine untill temp gauge gets to 1/2 way, once at 1/2 way truck will stall/ shit off when stop or lift foot off accelerator… replace all sensors and vvt I heard GM fuel pumps will get hot and shut off.. any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much! This video hit exactly what issues I'm having with my 2006!

You said you replaced the light switch. How did you get that out??

Ty much very helpful

Just wanted to say thanks. I don't know yet if this is going to help me or not , but it does give me a list of possibilities to check. very through and well explained , what was leaved to question was answered in comment's . this is a very useful video for anyone dealing with these issues. A+✌😎👍

Not sure if you can help me but figured id ask maybe someone knows. My hazard lights came on by there self one day while i was driving in the rain and they wouldnt turn off. I checked fuses under hood and took hazard switch off and it still wont turn off. Any suggestions? Is there a fuse box inside the truck somewhere? I couldnt find one. Couldnt find hazard replay either

Thanks! Gonna look into all this tomorrow. I know my blower connector is burned in the #3 position so I need the harness for that. But I'll take a close look at all those other connections, too.

My 2006 Colorados stereo and windshields don’t turn on until 30 minutes later after starting the truck ?

Awesome story! Congratulations on the new house purchase. I love that you kept positive and optimistic all these years and that you found someone to share it all with. I really enjoyed your story. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks

I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEE YOU!!!! I’ve been reading forums for going on 6 years now and NO one could help me figure out the these issues so thank you so much dude

How do u get to those plugs you replaced for blower motor

I have 06 canyon just started having issues fan dontvwork unless on 4 , day time running lite out but bulb good and my right blinker lights up when press brake. I'll go through check list tom.

Yup all these trucks are Lemons 🍋! Seriously as I’m reading through the comments I can relate to just about everyone of you, I have an 05 4wd 4door straight five and yes it looses all lights once in a while, the blower fan stops and frys out atleast once a winter, the master fuse went,it overheated for awhile until I put a new radiator in it, and now the latest issue is that all the blinkers and hazard lights stopped blinking,lighting and there’s no clicking or sound! I’m pretty mechanically inclined and have fixed every single issue except these damn blinkers! I’m sure it’s something pretty easy like a dirty ground or rusty connection or something but someone out there has had this problem and got it fixed? Any help would be appreciated before I stuff a roll of paper towels down the gas tank and light a zippo and run!!!!

Hey man my head lights and dash board turn of suddenly while driving for like 2 seconds and trurn back on, ? What could it be?

My sound from turn signal is not working.

My AC control unit has all the backlights out also. Do you now what bulb number you bought to replace those???

Yea mine all the gage cluster lights are out

Joseph when u added a double din radio to your Colorado did u have issues out of your cluster ? I’m asking because I’m fen to add a double din radio and I want to kno if if give problems with cluster

Solved ALL of my small issues

Joseph do u have fog lights on your Colorado ?

Can anyone help me with this issue I have a 2007 Chevy Colorado lt the back light for gauges not on so at night I can’t see gauges but all the gauges works properly but I noticed that the dimmer switch doesn’t seem to work like it don’t do anything but turn on dome like it’s not turning up the lights to bright or dim it doesn’t seem todo anything it feels very loose any ideas on what I could be

This gal can't thank you enough for this video. Worked on my 2005 Chevy Colorado. I screamed at the top of my lungs so all the neighbors could hear "I did it, I fixed it" Thank you again sooo much

Check your ground wires, if it's possible cut them off from the little box ,and put a ring and stick in the chassi,I solve many problems doing that, I only have one problem ,the passlock ,i hate it !

I hook my trailer on my 07 Colorado and all my lights stop working!

My 2006 only has 85k miles on it, as and I've had nothing but trouble. I had to replace the Throttle Body at 35k miles, new water pump at 58k. The blower fan only worked on #4 and I replaced the wiring harness for that. Now I just replaced the Cam position actuator because it would not idle.

The best and cheapest (almost free) way of fixing that is to get rid of the socket and solder the wires straight to the terminals on the resistor. Most likely the resistor is still good. Thats what I did and I haven’t had anymore problems.

I have all of those issues with my 2007 chevy Colorado as well. I replaced the lower resister and it worked solid for a week and then went out again. I am also having a problem with it overheating in idle. I replace the fan clutch, water pump, coolant sensor and cleaned out the throttle body myself. I still having a problem though in overheating in idol. I can't find a related issue online though. I replace all of the relays and fuses as well. I also cleaned the ground by the mass airflow area you were talking about, but I didn't do the other side and I will check where fuse box is. I will see if that helps any.

Reading your comments sound like Colorado's and Canyons all have similar issues my 2005 colorado randomly won't start have powere everywhere else but the radio and starting anyone have suggestions battery and alternator have all tested fine.

If you order it from amazon the fan control wiring is only a $8-$12 for wiring and coils.... don’t go to no autozone lol

My 09 Canyon had a burnt fan control resistor. I replaced it, and it burned again. After some research I replaced it with the harness and resistor block from a Tacoma, a completely unrelated truck right? Apparently not because it works great now.
