2007 GMC CANYON engine

Put an automatic transmission in PARK (P) or
a manual transmission in NEUTRAL before
setting the parking brake. If you have a
four-wheel-drive vehicle, be sure the transfer
case is not in NEUTRAL.
Notice:If you leave your radio or other
accessories on during the jump starting
procedure, they could be damaged.
The repairs would not be covered by
your warranty. Always turn off your radio
and other accessories when jump
starting your vehicle.
3. Turn off the ignition on both vehicles. Unplug
unnecessary accessories plugged into the
cigarette lighter or the accessory power
outlets. Turn off the radio and all lamps that
are not needed. This will avoid sparks
and help save both batteries. And it could
save the radio!
4. Open the hoods and locate the positive (+)
and negative (−) terminal locations on the
other vehicle. Your vehicle has a remote
positive (+) and a remote negative (−) jump
starting terminal. SeeEngine Compartment
Overview on page 324for more information on
the terminal locations.
{CAUTION:
Using a match near a battery can cause
battery gas to explode. People have been
hurt doing this, and some have been
blinded. Use a ashlight if you need more
light.
Be sure the batteries have enough water.
You do not need to add water to the
ACDelco
®battery (or batteries) installed in
your new vehicle. But if a battery has ller
caps, be sure the right amount of uid is
there. If it is low, add water to take care of
that rst. If you do not, explosive gas
could be present.
Battery uid contains acid that can burn
you. Do not get it on you. If you
accidentally get it in your eyes or on your
skin, ush the place with water and get
medical help immediately.

{CAUTION:
Fans or other moving engine parts can
injure you badly. Keep your hands away
from moving parts once the engine is
running.
5. Check that the jumper cables do not have
loose or missing insulation. If they do, you
could get a shock. The vehicles could
be damaged too.
Before you connect the cables, here are some
basic things you should know. Positive (+)
will go to positive (+) or to a remote positive (+)
terminal if the vehicle has one. Negative (−)
will go to a heavy, unpainted metal engine part
or to a remote negative (−) terminal if the
vehicle has one.
Do not connect positive (+) to negative (−)or
you will get a short that would damage the
battery and maybe other parts too. And do not
connect the negative (−) cable to the
negative (−) terminal on the dead battery
because this can cause sparks.6. Connect the red positive (+) cable to the
positive (+) terminal of the dead battery.
Use a remote positive (+) terminal if
the vehicle has one.
356

7. Do not let the other end touch metal. Connect
it to the positive (+) terminal of the good
battery. Use a remote positive (+) terminal if
the vehicle has one.
8. Now connect the black negative (−) cable to
the negative (−) terminal of the good battery.
Use a remote negative (−) terminal if the
vehicle has one.
Do not let the other end touch anything until
the next step. The other end of the negative (−)
cable does not go to the dead battery. It
goes to a heavy, unpainted metal engine part,
or to a remote negative (−) terminal on the
vehicle with the dead battery.9. Connect the other end of the negative (−) cable
at least 18 inches (45 cm) away from the dead
battery, but not near engine parts that move.
The electrical connection is just as good there,
and the chance of sparks getting back to the
battery is much less.
Your vehicle has a remote negative (−)
terminal for this purpose.
10. Now start the vehicle with the good battery
and run the engine for a while.
11. Try to start the vehicle that had the dead
battery. If it will not start after a few tries, it
probably needs service.

Notice:If the jumper cables are connected or
removed in the wrong order, electrical shorting
may occur and damage the vehicle. The repairs
would not be covered by your warranty. Always
connect and remove the jumper cables in the
correct order, making sure that the cables do
not touch each other or other metal.
A. Heavy, Unpainted Metal Engine Part or
Remote Negative (−) Terminal
B. Good Battery or Remote Positive (+) and
Remote Negative (−) Terminals
C. Dead Battery or Remote Positive (+) TerminalTo disconnect the jumper cables from both
vehicles, do the following:
1. Disconnect the black negative (−) cable from
the vehicle that had the dead battery.
2. Disconnect the black negative (−) cable from
the vehicle with the good battery.
3. Disconnect the red positive (+) cable from the
vehicle with the good battery.
4. Disconnect the red positive (+) cable from the
other vehicle.

Headlamps
A. Low-Beam Headlamp/Daytime Running
Lamps (DRL)
B. High-Beam Headlamp
To replace one of these bulbs, do the following:
1. Open the hood. SeeHood Release on
page 323for more information.
2. Reach in and access the bulb sockets from
inside the engine compartment.3. Turn the bulb socket counterclockwise to
remove it from the headlamp assembly
and pull it straight out.
4. Unplug the electrical connector from the old
bulb by releasing the clips on the bulb
socket.
5. Replace with a new bulb socket.
6. Plug in the electrical connector to the new
bulb socket.
7. Reinstall the new bulb socket into the
headlamp assembly and turn it clockwise to
secure.
8. Close the hood.

Front Turn Signal, Parking and
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
To replace one of these bulbs, do the following:
1. Open the hood. SeeHood Release on
page 323for more information.
2. Reach in to access either one of the bulb
sockets in the engine compartment.3. Turn the bulb socket counterclockwise and
remove it from the lamp assembly.
4. Holding the socket, pull the old bulb to
release it from the bulb socket.
5. Push the new bulb into the socket until it
clicks.
6. Insert the bulb socket into the lamp assembly
and turn it clockwise to secure.

Tire Size
The following illustration shows an example of a
typical passenger vehicle tire size.
(A) P-Metric Tire:The United States version of a
metric tire sizing system. The letter P as the
rst character in the tire size means a passenger
vehicle tire engineered to standards set by the
U.S. Tire and Rim Association.
(B) Tire Width:The three-digit number indicates
the tire section width in millimeters from sidewall
to sidewall.(C) Aspect Ratio:A two-digit number that
indicates the tire height-to-width measurements.
For example, if the tire size aspect ratio is 70, as
shown in item C of the illustration, it would mean
that the tire’s sidewall is 70 percent as high as
it is wide.
(D) Construction Code:A letter code is used to
indicate the type of ply construction in the tire.
The letter R means radial ply construction;
the letter D means diagonal or bias ply
construction; and the letter B means belted-bias
ply construction.
(E) Rim Diameter:Diameter of the wheel in
inches.
(F) Service Description:These characters
represent the load range and speed rating of the
tire. The load index represents the load carry
capacity a tire is certied to carry. The load index
can range from 1 to 279. The speed rating is
the maximum speed a tire is certied to carry a
load. Speed ratings range from A to Z.

TPMS Sensor Identication Codes
Each TPMS sensor has a unique identication
code. Any time you replace one or more of
the TPMS sensors or rotate your vehicle’s tires,
the identication codes will need to be matched to
the new tire/wheel position. The sensors are
matched to the tire/wheel positions in the following
order: driver’s side front tire, passenger’s side
front tire, passenger’s side rear tire, and driver’s
side rear tire using a TPMS diagnostic tool.
See your dealer for service.
The TPMS sensors may also be matched to each
tire/wheel position by increasing or decreasing
the tire’s air pressure. If increasing the tire’s
air pressure, do not exceed the maximum ination
pressure indicated on the tire’s sidewall.
You will have one minute to match the rst
tire/wheel position, and ve minutes overall, to
match all four tire/wheel positions.If it takes longer than one minute, to match the
rst tire and wheel, or more than ve minutes
to match all four tire and wheel positions
the matching process stops and you will need to
start over.
The TPMS sensor matching procedure is outlined
below:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON with the
engine off.
3. Turn the exterior lamp switch from AUTO to
OFF four times within three seconds. A
double horn chirp will sound and the TPMS
low tire warning light starts ashing. The
double horn chirp and ashing TPMS warning
light indicates the TPMS matching process
has started. The TPMS warning
light should continue ashing throughout
the matching procedure. The LOW TIRE
message displays on the Driver Information
Center (DIC).
4. Start with the driver’s side front tire.
