On some 2003 model year Cadillac Escalade, Escalade EXT, and Escalade ESV; Chevrolet Silverado, Avalanche, Tahoe, and Suburban; GMC Sierra, Yukon, and Yukon XL; and HUMMER H2 vehicles, the passenger door module (PDM) may become inoperative. An inoperative PDM would cause loss of function for the remote keyless entry, front passenger power window, lock, mirror and heated seat functions. Correction Dealers are to reprogram the PDM. Service Procedure Important: The labor time for performing the refresh/reprogram of the passenger door module in this recall is different than the amount of time allowed in Service Bulletin 03-08-52-001B. The labor operation code and time allowance in the service bulletin was for a BCM reprogram, and was not the correct labor operation code for this repair. Inspection Procedure Important: The following inspection must be performed in order to determine the correct repair procedure. 1. Turn the ignition to the ON position. 2. Using the switches in the right front passenger door, verify that the power window and power door lock located in that door, function properly. • If the power window and door locks do NOT function, proceed to the “Refresh and Reprogram” procedure and follow ALL of the steps. • If the power window and door lock function properly, the vehicle only needs to be updated with the new calibration for the passenger door module. Proceed to and follow only steps 4-6 in the “Refresh and Reprogram” procedure. DO NOT PERFORM STEPS 1-3. Refresh and Reprogram Procedure

ISSUE Some 2002-2005 4×4 Explorer 4dr/Mountaineer and 2003-2005 4×4 Aviator vehicles may exhibit a vibration/drone/boom at 55-75 MPH (89-121 km/h). Electronic vibration analyzer (EVA) readings will fall under 1st order rear driveshaft at 2700-3100 shaft RPM (45-52 Hertz). ACTION If the condition is present in 3rd gear (with overdrive cancelled), and is isolated to the driveline (not felt through the steering wheel), install a premium balanced driveshaft. Refer to the following Service Procedure. SERVICE PROCEDURE NOTE THIS TSB DOES NOT APPLY TO THE SOLID 4X2 DRIVESHAFT, IT ONLY APPLIES TO 4X4 WITH BOOT/SLIP JOINT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DRIVESHAFT. 1. With the vehicle in NEUTRAL, position it on a hoist. Refer to Workshop Manual Section 100-02. 2. Remove skid plate, if equipped. 3. Remove the driveshaft flange bolts (Figure 1). 5. Using a suitable tool, disconnect the driveshaft flanges and remove the driveshaft (Figure 3). Figure 3 – Article 05-16-4 6. Measure the NEW driveshaft length from u-joint center to u-joint center. Refer to Step 6a or 6b. a. Driveshafts measuring LESS than 1194 ± 1.0 mm must be expanded as follows: (1) Place driveshaft on a suitable workbench and firmly secure either flange in a suitable vice. CAUTION CAREFULLY SECURE THE DRIVESHAFT TO AVOID DAMAGE TO THE FLANGE. (2) Grasp the shaft at the opposing flange with both hands and expand (by pulling) as required to 1194 ± 1.0 mm.

ISSUE Some 2003-2005 Expedition/Navigator vehicles built before 12/06/2004 with memory seats may exhibit the driver’s power seat binding in the full rearward position and becoming inoperative in forward and reverse. This may be due to the horizontal seat motor and memory seat position sensor (potentiometer) on vehicles built before 10/16/2003, or due to the potentiometer (only) on vehicles built between 10/16/2003 and 12/05/2004. ACTION If the vehicle was built before 10/16/2003, inspect the horizontal motor bracket under the seat. If the bracket has bends on either side of the seat motor, install a horizontal seat motor kit. If the vehicle already has a straight bracket, or if the vehicle was built between 10/16/2003 and 12/05/2004, install a seat potentiometer kit only. Refer to the following Service Procedure.

Condition General Motors has decided to conduct a Voluntary Emission Recall involving certain 2001-03 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra model vehicles, equipped with a 4.3L V6 (RPO L35 – VIN W or RPO LU3 – VIN X) engine. The ignition distributor cap and rotor in these vehicles may corrode and cause ignition system failure. This condition may result in rough engine idle, misfire, stalls, engine cranks but does not run and/or illumination of the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL). Correction Dealers are to inspect the distributor ignition ventilation holes and, if necessary, replace the distributor cap and rotor, remove the External Ignition Protection (EIP) vent screens and install a foam sleeve around the A/C accumulator line. Vehicles Involved Involved are certain 2001-03 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra model vehicles, equipped with a 4.3L V6 (RPO L35 – VIN W or RPO LU3 – VIN X) engine and built within these VIN breakpoints: Service Procedure 1. Raise the engine hood and inspect the ignition distributor ventilation holes, located in the base of the distributor, to see if the External Ignition Protection (EIP) screens are present. 2. If the EIP vent screens are present: • Remove the vent EIP screens using the procedure listed in Step 3. • Refer to the appropriate procedure in the Engine Controls sub-section of the applicable Service Manual and replace the distributor cap and rotor. 3. Remove the vent screens (1), located in the base of the distributor, by inserting a plastic- handled, long blade awl or pick (2) into each of the two airflow vent holes and popping out the screen. If there are no EIP vent screens in the airflow vent holes, check the vent holes for debris and clear as necessary before reassembling the distributor. 4. If the EIP vent screens are not present, the distributor cap and rotor do not require replacement. 5. Install the foam sleeve, P/N 15190971, around the section of the A/C accumulator line that is routed directly above the distributor. Cut a slit in the sleeve and secure it to the line using tie- straps. Do not install a new foam sleeve if a sleeve is already in place on the A/C accumulator line. 6. 2001-03 CALIFORNIA, 2003 MASSACHUSETTS & MAINE VEHICLES ONLY : Install a Recall Identification Label. Also, for California vehicles, complete a “Proof Of Correction” certificate upon recall completion.
