2014 Silverado/Sierra Tips and Tricks


Recommended Posts

If you hold the power button down on the radio it really turns off. Not just mute! And you get a very nice looking clock while the radio is off.

 

And the mirror thing is pretty cool. I tried it for the first time earlier today.

Unfortunately, this is only 1/2 true. While yes the screen switches to an "off" status & displays a clock, the radio itself still doesn't truly true off and any music source will continue to run (so if you turn off the power for 2 mins, when you power back on the music will be 2 mins further along & not the point you left off). Pretty big oversight by the designers.

I tested the radio on/off with my USB drive, when I checked the track after pushing the off button until the clock showed up the track was right where it left off.

You sure? If so, you're the only one I've heard that has a radio that really does power off.

 

(If you don't mind, try playing a song & look at track timer right before you power off. Then wait at least 30 secs before turning back on & check to see if any time elapsed)

Hello

 

I have tried folding my mirrors in by the remote but it does not work...The only way I can fold them in, is to press the button on the inside of the door before I get out??

 

The feature is controlled by a setting. Under Settings -> Vehicle Options if I remember right. Called "auto fold mirrors" or something. Maybe your setting is off?

it's too bad they didn't do something with the windows. I would have love for them to come down or up with remote. My girls car does all that and I can't get her to stop clowning me on it. lol

After you get the setting correct in the DIC, press and hold the lock button on the remote, unlock is the same. Press and hold.

I can't find it anywhere in my settings? I do have power mirrors though that fold in when I push the button on my drivers door.

 

I've gone into everything looking for a setting for mirrors and can't find it anywhere!!!

 

Is it maybe an extra feature you had to ad on?
