Guys have tried to swap the Escalade shifter, but only towhaul worked, not the manual shift buttons, so they always stuck with a Denali shifter which is leather wrapped. Swapping the internals allows the manual shift buttons to work and tow haul, so it’s now 100% functional. The Escalade shifter just has some chrome on it to match the other interior accents.

What do you mean by the outside button? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Installed an Escalade shifter in my truck today. Guys before said it couldn’t be done, but I got it!!! Everything works perfectly. Just had to swap the internal switch. Hoping this can help out a lot of guys who have wanted to do this mod.

Once you pull the switch out, repeat this same process on the Stock shifter to get to the internal button. Just swap the old internal buttons to the new escalade shifter, and just put everything back together. That’s it! Towhaul and the manual shifter buttons now work!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Once you pull it out, you can pop up the two smal white tabs on the side of the plug and the cover will come up. I marked one wire on the jst terminal and the side of the plug so I knew which wire went where, in the event that I mixed them up. Just grab and firmly pull these out.

You’ll expose the switch underneath. Take a small pick and push on the small tab to release it and it’ll come out slowly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Start by taking a small plastic pry tool and slowly pop the button out. It’ll come out relatively easy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I want to start out and say that I’m super pumped about this finally being accomplished. I’ve heard and read before where members have tried, but couldn’t get the manual shifter buttons to work. I was inspired by Phil Gamboa to tear into this and get it working. After checking out the four wires(2 white for towhaul and two black for manual mode) I figured that trying to re-pin the plug wouldn’t work. It would likely just reverse the polarity of the momentary buttons. Picture of the escalade shifter vs stock one. Gm #25807853 is the shifter I used. It fits the 08-14 Escalade. GM used a different switch inside that will not communicate with the bcm if you just plug it into your truck. All you have to do is just swap the internals over to the Escalade, and you’re golden!!

Check out https://www.whiteautoandmedia.com for programming. I don’t think the OP is on the forums here anymore. WAMS can get anything programmed that you want. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

All of the hose clamps I had were too small. Lol. I went out and grabbed some stainless zip ties to keep it on. It was just a temporary thing to get them up and secured. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes. You would need resistors with the led bulbs.

These are gone now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve had these for a few years and are perfectly fine. They were on my Silverado, not sure if the sierras use the same bulbs. I just upgraded to some LTZ tails. Nice quality name brand leds. If someone wants them, just comment on here and I’ll get them out in the mail. Special price for 2020 only, free fiddy. I believe in Karma and want to pay it forward. Hoping you can do the same.

The length of the wire was perfect to place the resistors on the pass side of the hitch on the top. I screwed them to a small aluminum plate and ziptied that to the hitch. It’s wide enough where the zip tie isn’t close at all to the resistors. Aluminum should help dissipate the heat as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
