Button to open rear glass

Greensmob · May 3, 2015

Is there a button in the suv somewhere to open the rear glass? I can do it from my FOB but have not noticed any button or marking to open the glass without the fob.

If you are driving a Chevy, there is a button under the liftgate bowtie, far right.

You can notice such things in your user manual.

I think he meant from inside the cabin. If so, I don't think there is such a button for just the glass, only the entire tailgate.

That would be true. OTOH, I have run across a few sales people who didn't know the rear glass could be opened.

Thanks A hole there is no button in the cabin.

None-the-less, the answer is found in the user manual. The inability of one to read is outside the scope of the question.

I will say that the manual that came with our Yukon is extremely poorly written. It tends to be more of a description of what the feature can do instead of instructions on how to operate it. And ours has the keyless start, which the manual completely ignores when it comes to certain instructions. For example, it describes how to turn on the Accessory power using the key, but provides not a single word on how to turn on the Accessory power when the vehicle is equipped with keyless start. One would think that GM could have been bothered to add instructions for those that bought the $80,000 version!! Once again, thanks for nothing, GM.

Bottom line, it's a bit of a POS.

That's interesting, Wrench. Mine does cover that topic. (I do cheat however ... I downloaded the PDF version for full text searches). Page 9-21.

ACC/ACCESSORY (Amber

Indicator Light): This mode allows

some electrical accessories to be

used when the engine is off.

With the ignition off, pressing the

button one time without the brake

pedal applied will place the ignition

system in ACC/ACCESSORY.

Accessory in the Tahoe is the same, after 10 minutes though radio operation for example shuts off and I don't remember if the process has to be repeated or just hit the radio on/off button to resume. I provided a link to Wrench a while ago with the PDF version.

Being a tad kind ... more like a big pile of do-do

LOL!!

I'll check the manual again, but may be different than the US version. I see that a lot here in Canada. No rationale reason, other than the French section that you all don't have.

Zip - yes, you did provide the link. Thanks very much. Unfortunately, takes me to GM's US site and when it detects that my ISP is in Canada, prevents me from downloading. Directs me to the Canadian site, which has the exact same manual I have with the vehicle. Nice trick GM!

Thanks, guys!

There is a button for it. Just above the license plate to the right of the tag lights is a little button you can push to just pop the glass. There is no option on the inside of the vehicle to do this though you are correct.
