  1. Greetings, For those of you that have replaced the clock spring in order to accomodate the "new" steering wheel w/ radio/DIC controls, how do you remove the "two lead" connector on the top of the ignition switch? I jiggled, wiggled and stared at that one connector for nearly 30 minutes attempting to get it off...after not wanting to destroy the original, I put everything back together in order to conduct a little reseearch to see how all of you removed that one connector. All of the other connectors came apart easily. Any info will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. blackmajicwoman I believe the wires you are talking about are for the ignition lock. This is a bit of tricky one. There is a tab on the inside (closest to the middle of the column) that needs to be depressed. Use a very small screwdriver for this. It will pop right out!! You will have a large 8pin connector left over. This is used if you have quadrasteer. There will also be a bright neon green connector with two wires left over. Not really sure what that is used for. I didn't use and everything worked out great!!
  2. I just finished installing my new steering wheel controls and had it programmed at the local GM dealership. The install took about 2.5 hours. We had some problems routing the new harness, but then we realized that we one plug in the wrong place!! But after that it was smooth sailing. Taking your time and really looking at it helps a lot. The actual programming took the dealer about 1 hour. Everything works on the DIC, odometer, trip, stereo controls, vehicle settings etc. The only thing I don't have is Instant fuel economy, but I'm not 100% sure if these trucks have that anyhow. Perhaps someone else can chime in on that. The upgrade is definitely worth it!!
