Hey GMTnation, I need some help with an odd electrical problem. Every now and then when I go to start the envoy it won't start. I get weird noise from the gauge cluster area and it resets the time on the radio and sets my info center back to the odometer from the fuel econ screen. Then, I release the key from the start position and try again and it will start. So, today I drop my dog off at the groomers and 5 minutes later try to start it back up. Nothing, just some weird noises from under the dash, no gauge lights, no nothing. So, I went to pull the key and the factory disc changer started to make some noise. After that totally dead. So, I got a jump and it fired right up. However, I had almost every warning light on including the "low power engine light", stabilatrak, cel, and it was idling real bad. So, I shut it back down and fired it back up no problems then. On my way home I stopped for gas, not thinking and out of habit shut if off. Tried to start it again dead, released the key and all of a sudden gauge lights, disc changer noise, and noise from gauges again. Then it started up. I'm wondering if this a bad ignition, but I'm not sure if anyone can help please do.
