SOURCE: 2009 chevy tahoe RAP is

{: ) If your vehicle is equipped with a DIC button, try to press on the button if the lights goes off. Or better yet, remove the connector of the DIC button. If the problem is eliminated, then you may need to replace the DIC button.
Another possible cause is when there are issues with the driver door and the body control module (BCM). The only door that can turn off the radio during RAP is the driver's door. It's possible the door is not giving the proper signals to the BCM. Or it could be the BCM is at fault, some stuck up internal relays or a software issue.
In this case, a scan tool can effectively monitor all these inputs, and eventually speed up diagnosis and make the necessary recommendations.

What could be causing these 2 Audio issues I am having in my 2008 Chevrolet Tahoe?

The wires could be shorting or have a bad connection any where in the length from the radio to the sub woofer. I lost all sound in my Tahoe and thought that the connection was at the radio but never found a problem. One day on a hard left turn a loose chair in the back area of the Tahoe struck the right side panel which has the speaker and everything starter working.

My 2009 tahoe engine light stays on after you shut the vehicle of and take the key out. the battery drains too. sometimes the engine will run a 10 seconds after you shut the key off also

There is an ASD (Auto shut down) relay. When relays get older they tend to weld their terminals together so they never turn off. Try pulling it next time this happens and see if the engine light goes out.

Why would the radio/sat nav/climate screen shut down and start up randomly. When shut down scree goes blank and then returns to BMW screen

Oddly enough something similar recently happened to my 2009 650i recently purchased. The system would intermittently cut out and restart, turning on the radio even with another source selected or radio off. No idea if there is a short or software issue causing it, but it started when I put the navigation DVD in and tried to use it. Took the DVD out and restarted the system, problem hasn’t returned. I’ve read about others having similar issues with the navigation system causing the radio/idrive to cut out as well. It’s a long shot, but worth posting so others don’t spend money chasing a problem solved by using your smartphone instead of the car’s navigation.

I am trying to play a dvd in my 2007 Tahoe. It will not play and gives me an optical error message. Any thoughts?

{: ) If you have been playing DVD normally before on your Tahoe, and now you read error messages, it could be the player or the disc at fault. Most of the time it is the disc at fault. As much as possible, the discs shoul be clean and scratch free, not warped, and compatible to your player. Avoid using discs with paper label. Try a known good DVD disc and observe for any progress.
Just in case it's the first time you try and you have a navigation radio, check again your RPO lists. and look for a UVB listed on the RPO sticker. Or simply check the DVD symbol on the left lower corner of the radio, which indicates that it is capable of playing DVD audio or video.

We just purchased an 08 tahoe with 11,000 miles. When you turn the ignition off and then back on the dvd player starts back at the beginning. Is this normal? thanks

Yes, while there are a few dvd players that keep memory with power off, GM protects the computer and battery by keeping other essential memory functions only. This includes powering the onstar system, keeping radio memory, holding enough charge for any alarm and remote door unlock, computer memory etc.
