Blofgren, I’m at about 170k clicks. Voltage regulators are cheap and fairly easy to replace. Seem like a common failure point in my recent interwebs searches dealing with this yesterday. Also seen a bunch of accounts of the vr spiking and killing other electrical systems.
Thanks for the info, I’ll check into it. I like to be proactive and take care of common issues before they become a PITA at the least convenient time. This is my first GM so still learning about them. One thing I’ve found is that these older GM suv’s seem to be pretty tough and are quite easy to work on! :B
You found a good one with that low mileage, though! :)
