Some Chevrolet Traverse owners report experiencing issues such as clicking door locks, stalling problems, and anti-theft system messages after installing a new radio. The clicking sound in the door locks may be attributed to cracked and shorted wiring in the rubber flex tube that connects the driver's door to the vehicle's electrical system. Additionally, stalling issues could arise from a faulty battery or key, often linked to the "Service Theft Deterrent System" message, and may require resetting the vehicle's computer by disconnecting the battery. Furthermore, the anti-theft system message might be triggered by a failed KeyFob, a malfunctioning door lock, or issues with the RF signal receiver. For accurate diagnosis, some owners find it necessary to use a GM-capable scanner to check the security module for fault codes. If these problems persist, it is advisable to consult a professional mechanic or contact a Chevrolet dealership for further assistance.
