Oxygen sensor is not the problem for over idle speed, if it is bad or not responding the car will start shivering also known as Misfire. The problem for the increase of idle speed is the "TPS" (Throttle positioning sensor or Throttle position sensor) Try to remove the Connected wire from this sensor and if the car turn off when its removed then close your eyes and change the sensor, if it is expensive try to remove from a accidental Vehicle but the same model

SOURCE: 2004 GMC Yukon XL Reduced Eng power

it sounds like it could be your pcm power control module. only because there are so many different lights coming on at once. or and this may sound stupid but check under the drivers seat. there is a ontrol box there. push the connector and make sure its connected... Believe it or not.. when the seat moves it can tug on the cable. It did on mine and I lost the fuel pump and the fuel guage. I also lost traction control. I had the pump replaced and of course it worked when i drove it out of the dealer only to stop 2 days later... By chance i came accross a web page.. I cant find it now. and a guy had the same problem and it took 4 weeks for the dealer to find out it was under the seat. I check mine frequently and have not had a problem since... lucky for me the fuel pump was under warrenty.

SOURCE: 2002 gmc yukon, rich fuel code, low fuel pressure @40

you may have two oxugen sensors on your yukon. if so the oxygen sensor that controls that bank may be bad. from what you mentioned in your complaint, it sounds like it is the oxygen sensor.

SOURCE: 2001 Yukon XL SLT 4 speed Auto Transmission shift problem!

Sam,

I would start with a transmission fliud and filter service.

I would then have the trasnmission checked out by a transmission shop. The transmission most of the time has the direct drum band is starting to go. The shops can rebuild it no problem, This is a very common failure wiith the trasnmission.

Good Luck

WHAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM WITH MY 2000 GMC YOKON XL WHEN A REDUCED ENGINE POWER MESSAGE COMES ON THE MESSAGE CENTER

A sensor within the car's computer system has detected a possibly major problem. The system then puts the engine into "limp mode" so that it can be driven to a repair station. Driving in this condition will only increase the damage. Highly recommend you take to reputable mechanic immediately for computer diagnostic.

Gmc idles rough in cold weather

Check the coolant temp. sensor (It controls warm up RPM, open loop ECU mode) And change the fuel filter every 20,000 miles to prevent water in filter from freezing ( fuel starvation).

I belive the speed sensor broke because runs fine on the 1st gear and 2nd gear are fine when is time for 3rt it change to 3rt but rpm goes up and reject it and goes back to 2nd pretty much i can go...

take all wheels off the ground use jack stand,start engine up and put car in drive and let it run for about 5 mins, with wheel off the ground it should shift gears better, if it do you to change your transmission filter and oil, VERY IMPORTANT TO CHANGE OIL WHILE IT IS HOT! check oil to make sure no metal is in oil or heavy shavings, if shavings or metal is present you need new tranny,measure the amount of oil you take out put same amount back in, i really dont think you got a speed sensor problem you might have too much milage on your yukon, hay mon sure you service your yukon on time or else ford will excort you home, good luck mon and big up u self

My 1996 GMC Yukon 4x4 transmission will only drive in 1st and 2nd

It will take off from a stop in overdrive but as soon as it shifts into 3rd at about 30 miles per hour it jumps into neutral? If yes, you have a burnt 3/4 clutch. The transmission will need rebulit. Cost of about 1600 dollars.

1998 Yukon high idle sound with bad gas mileage.

What you have is the torque converter clutch,cycling on and off.
When it is off.your rpm will go up and your milage will go down
First-check to see if your brake switch, on the back of the brake peddle, is loose or misadjusted. When you apply the brakes,the first thing to happen, is that you unlock the converter,so your trans is not connected directly to the motor,or you would stall. Then below 42 MPH,your trans is working off the converter, as a pressure multiplier ,based on rpm
Second- switch okey. You remove trans pan and change TCC Solenoid.

Let me know if if you need more guidance
