2010 GMC YUKON HYBRID wiring

Storage Areas
Power Outlet Alternating Current
The vehicle may have a power outlet that can be used
to plug in electrical equipment that uses a maximum
limit of 150 watts.
The power outlet is
located in the rear cargo
area on the driver side.
An indicator light on the outlet turns on to show it is in
use. The light comes on when the ignition is in ON/RUN
and equipment requiring less than 150 watts is plugged
into the outlet, and no system fault is detected. The indicator light does not come on when the ignition
is in LOCK/OFF or if no equipment is plugged into
the outlet.
If equipment is connected using more than 150 watts,
or a system fault is detected, a protection circuit shuts
off the power supply and the indicator light turns off.
To reset the circuit, unplug the item and plug it back in
or turn the Retained Accessory Power (RAP) off and
then back on. The power restarts when equipment
using 150 watts or less is plugged into the outlet and a
system fault is not detected.
The power outlet is not designed for the following
electrical equipment and may not work properly if these
items are plugged into the power outlet:
.Equipment with high initial peak wattage such as:
compressor-driven refrigerators and electric
power tools.
.Other equipment requiring an extremely stable
power supply such as: microcomputer-controlled
electric blankets, touch sensor lamps, etc.

Engine Coolant Heater
The engine coolant heater can provide easier starting
and better fuel economy during engine warm-up in cold
weather conditions at or below−18°C (0°F). Vehicles
with an engine heater should be plugged in at least
four hours before starting. An internal thermostat in
the plug-end of the cord may exist which will prevent
engine coolant heater operation at temperatures
above −18°C (0°F).
To Use the Engine Coolant Heater
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Open the hood and unwrap the electrical cord.
The cord is secured to a wiring harness between
the engine and the Hybrid Auxiliary Underhood
Fuse Block with a clip. Carefully remove the wire
tie which secures the electrical cord. Do not cut the
electrical cord.
3. Plug the cord into a normal, grounded 110-volt AC outlet.
{WARNING:
Plugging the cord into an ungrounded outlet could
cause an electrical shock. Also, the wrong kind of
extension cord could overheat and cause a fire.
You could be seriously injured. Plug the cord into
a properly grounded three-prong 110-volt AC
outlet. If the cord will not reach, use a heavy-duty
three-prong extension cord rated for at least
15 amps.
4. Before starting the engine, be sure to unplug and store the cord as it was before to keep it away from
moving engine parts. If you do not, it could be
damaged.
The length of time the heater should remain plugged in
depends on several factors. Ask a dealer/retailer in the
area where you will be parking the vehicle for the best
advice on this.

If doing some of your own service work, use the proper
service manual. It tells you much more about how to
service the vehicle than this manual can. To order the
proper service manual, see“Service Publications
Ordering Information” in the owner manual.
This vehicle has an airbag system. Before attempting
to do your own service work, see “Servicing Your
Airbag‐Equipped Vehicle” in the owner manual.
Keep a record with all parts receipts and list the
mileage and the date of any service work performed.

4. Press the release tab, if bulb socket has one, andturn the bulb socket counterclockwise to remove it
from the taillamp assembly.
5. Pull the old bulb straight out from the bulb socket.
6. Press a new bulb into the bulb socket and insert it into the taillamp assembly. Turn the bulb socket
clockwise into the taillamp assembly until it clicks.
7. Reinstall the taillamp assembly. When reinstalling, make sure to line up the pins on the taillamp
assembly with the vehicle. If this is not done the
taillamp assembly cannot be correctly installed.

Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in the vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination of fuses, circuit breakers
and fusible thermal links. This greatly reduces the
chance of fires caused by electrical problems.
Be sure you replace a bad fuse with a new one of the
identical size and rating.
If you ever have a problem on the road and do not
have a spare fuse, you can borrow one that has the
same amperage. Just pick some feature of the vehicle
that you can get along without, like the radio or cigarette
lighter, and use its fuse, if it is the correct amperage.
Replace it as soon as you can.
The vehicle also has a special fuse in the battery box
for the 300-volt batteries. If this fuse has failed and
needs to be replaced, the vehicle will be disabled and
you will need to have the vehicle repaired by your
dealer/retailer. Do not attempt to self-service this fuse.
Underhood Fuse Block
Hybrid Auxiliary Underhood Fuse Block
The hybrid underhood fuse block is located in the
engine compartment near the front of the vehicle. Lift
the cover for access to the fuse/relay block. SeeEngine
Compartment Overview
on page 6‑4for more
information on its location. For more information on the
main underhood fuse block, see “Underhood Fuse
Block” in the owner manual.
