2004 Chevy Silverado. The Service Airbag light is on, but no error codes?

Question edited for clarity. Question moved to model category. Resetting the airbag light on your Chevy Silverado should be easy to do. Follow this video to watch it being done in a Chevy Silverado. To start with, you will:
  • Put the key into the ignition
  • Turn the key to the "on" position
  • Wait for the airbag light to turn on
  • Wait to continue until the airbag light turns off (around seven seconds)
  • Repeat the same steps twice more
  • Turn on your engine
After you take these steps, your airbag light should turn off. If it doesn't do so, then you should consider taking your vehicle in for diagnostic testing. If the airbag light remains on, it could mean that something in the system is faulty. That could mean the airbag, the computer wiring, or another issue. Oftentimes, when the airbag light comes on unexpectedly, it is because of interference with the switch. Feb 12, 2021

2004 Chevy Silverado. Reduce engine power

Question edited for clarity. Question moved to model category. Yes, aftermarket alarms can cause problems like that, and remote starters are even worse. Better to stick with what the factory designed and put in. The check engine light has a code and that will tell you what the issue is. You need someone with a scan tool.

My 2004 Chevy Silverado's battery drains if not driven everyday. Could this be caused by the ECM?

You have what's called a parasitic drain on the battery. It could be caused by the ECM, but it's doubtful that it is. More likely one of the electronic components in your Silverado. There are many YouTube videos on troubleshooting parasitic drains, or you can have a qualified shop look at it for you.

Am wondering if a 2004 GMC Envoy instrument cluster will work in my 2004 Chevy Silverado Z71.

Call your local GM dealer and have them check part numbers. I don't believe it will. If the stepper motors went out and the needles go haywire you should have the unit repaired for around 120$ most places will charge. US Speedo The Industry Leader in Everything Speedometer

I have a high pitched

Okay what you want to do today I can host this is to take all of the accessory belts off of the engine start the motor and listen for the sound if you don't hear the sound then you know it's your alternator or one of the other accessories the reason you take off all of the belts is to see if it's a timing belt what you would not be able to take off cuz that's inside the motor the only way to diagnose it is to do this.
