    Just replacing some of the pics since I'm still not sure if I am going to pay Photobuckets extortion fee. Day 1 Before adding drop shackles and color matched handles/mirror caps to replace the replacement chrome ones I did not like

    Thanks once again! If I understand correctly the buttons still worked when you used to disconnect the wire at the BCM (you just lost illumination which I don't mind) so that would lead me to believe I don't need to have the BCM that supports SWC and just need to make sure there is power/ground to the steering wheel module in order for it to send data(?) My guess is there is already power/ground at the steering wheel for the cruise control buttons and it would make sense for them to be tied together instead of having separate wires however as I am finding it may not necessarily be that simple! Is anybody out there with steering wheel audio controls and cruise control willing to remove the fuse and let me know if both stop working?

    Thanks for all the info guys but I gotta admit I am a little confused now! chancyrudd, since the aswc-1 catches the signal before the BCM (my BCM is not SWC compatible however I am changing to an aftermarket headunit) does this mean it will still work whether the controls are resistance or data based as long as I have the correct clockspring?

    Double post again!
  14. Marv88
    Just what I was hoping to hear and thanks! Are there any other connections I would need to make from the buttons ie a ground etc?
  15. Marv88
    I may just do that! How much and do you have the harness with the clock spring? (or know the part number)
  16. Marv88
    Oops! I thought the same thing but then i read the connection to the adapter is before the BCM so I thought it would bypass that.

    Anybody have a guess as to why it most likely wouldn't work?

    I am upgrading the audio system in my 2016 Silverado LS that came with the 7" IOB infotainment system that does not have steering wheel control capability nor a CD player both of which I would like to have. I checked with Chevrolet about upgrading and was told I would need to get the 8" screen, change the steering wheel, change the bcm, add a harness and have it programmed at a cost of around $1500.00 but the crazy thing is they also said they could not guarantee it would work! I definitely wasn't going to take that chance so I decided to just replace the headunit with a Pioneer double din to get CD/DVD as well as a few other nice features along with an idatalink Maestro so I can keep all of my factory functions. I knew this headunit could be controlled by factory steering wheel controls via an add on adapter which got me thinking so I looked up the instructions for the AXXESS ASWC-1 adapter and found it only needs power/ground and one connection into the harness under the steering column. After a little googling my understanding is the factory steering wheel button sends a signal to the computer which determines what function to do based on the different resistance of the particular button pushed and that's the reason only 1 wire output is needed. Now I am no electrical wizard for sure but it appears that if I change the steering wheel to one with the controls and add the necessary harness the buttons should be able to control the aftermarket headunit using the adapter since it would be doing what the computer would be doing with the factory headunit which is just reading the resistance of the button that is pushed. This almost seems too easy especially since I have found nothing is easy to upgrade in these trucks so hopefully one of you electrical wizard can confirm this will work or let me know why it won't. Thanks in advance!

    It's an option for 2014 + Silverado LT or LTZ but will install directly into any model Silverado or Sierra from 2014 + that came with the center jump seat. Here's a thread on the swap... http://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/156870-center-console-swap/
  23. Marv88
    Thanks and i agree ! BTW, on the console swap thread somebody mentioned that if you contact the seller directly he will sell you one for $350.00 plus shipping.
  24. Marv88
    Thanks Bryant and the console swap is high on my list of favorite mods!
