  1. Unfortunately socialmedia won’t provide this service anymore. Couple guys tried here not to long ago they just send back a generic email stating they don’t. If the guy at the parts counter at your local GM stealership is cool they can print a copy of the build sheet out for you. Also the sales department can order a copy of the window sticker for a cost. Otherwise you can buy a replacement window sticker from a site like this. https://monroneylabels.com/
  2. Daaaaaaamn, what’s under the front end? Guessing that truck sees some desert time?
  3. Thanks I didn’t know they now have a powder coated option. Actually I shouldn’t thank you cause now I’m going to spend more money I don’t really need to... ?
  4. Assuming ?? trucks have the same ambient light sensor on the dash you can try this “mod”
  5. page 3 of this thread shows the programmer you order to program the fobs cheapest I found it was on Rock Auto and yes it will work on GM fobs not just the one it comes with
  6. Illegal or outer space?
  7. Read this thread will kinda maybe answer most of your questions.
  8. Good thing OP didn’t buy a Benz their new “eco” friendly wiring is now made with soy oil instead of petroleum oil. Apparently the little b@st@rds think it’s quite tasty. Last fall brother-in-law got to put a new 5k harness in one of his JD tractors in the field cause apparently JD has adopted this practice as well. Cause you would never expect to find critters around farms, barns, storage buildings, corn fields, etc...
  9. There should never be a need to have paint work done on any vehicle (other than glass installer error) with any window install/replacement.
  10. https://www.gen5diy.com/collections/chevrolet/products/14-18-silverado-foglight-harness this option also allows for the fogs to stay on with high beams
  11. warranty on them for 6 years from in service date the of truck or 72,000 miles
  12. I also wonder how many HD sales GM is going to lose with the new ones. For as long as the HDs have been out I don’t seem to see that many on the roads yet? Maybe I’m not the only one that thinks they got beat with the fugly stick. Never thought I’d see the day when the Rams are the best looking ones out of the big 3...
  13. FIRST TELL CUSTOMER WE HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM OR EVER HAD ANYONE ELSE COMPLAIN ABOUT IT (even though 5 people come in daily with same complaint) Step #1 TELL CUSTOMER THAT THE TECH CAN’T DUPLICATE PROBLEM Step #2 BLAME PROBLEM (NO MATTER WHAT IT IS) ON ANY/ALL AFTERMARKET/NON GM PARTS INSTALLED ANYWHERE ON VEHICLE Step #3 CONVINCE CUSTOMER THE PROBLEM IS ALL IN THEIR HEAD AND/OR THEIR FAULT AND/OR IMPROPER USE CAUSE THEY DON’T KNOW HOW TO USE THEIR VEHICLE Step #4 TELL CUSTOMER THAT WE JUST FOUND A NEW TSB FOR PROBLEM AND THAT ALL WE CAN DO IS WHAT IT SAYS TO DO AND THAT’S ALL WE CAN DO CAUSE GM WON’T LET US DO ANYTHING ELSE CAUSE THAT’S ALL WE CAN DO SO THAT IS ALL WE DID CAUSE THAT’S ALL WE CAN DO CAUSE THAT’S WHAT IT SAYS TO DO Step #5 IF HOURLY EMPLOYEE SIP “FREE” COFFEE AND ENJOY A “CUSTOMER WAITING ROOM” DONUT WHILE STARING AT THE CLOCK WAITING FOR LUNCH/END OF DAY TO COME IF FLAT RATE EMPLOYEE LOOK FOR OTHER EMPLOYMENT ON JOB SEARCH SITES CAUSE YOU AIN’T MAKING ANY MONEY HERE AND NEVER WILL AT .0005 OF AN HOUR FOR DIAGNOSTIC “BOOK” TIME Step #6 WHEN CUSTOMER LEAVES MAD AFTER 4TH VISIT FOR FAILED REPAIR SEND INTERNAL REFERRAL TO SALES DEPARTMENT TO MAKE COURTESY CALL TO CUSTOMER USING EITHER “WE HAVE A CUSTOMER LOOKING FOR YOUR EXACT SAME VEHICLE IF YOUR INTERESTED IN TRADING YOURS IN” LINE OR “WE HAVE EXCELLENT INCENTIVES AND NOW IS THE TIME TO BUY A NEW ONE” LINE Step #7 WONDER WHY CUSTOMERS HATE COMING HERE...
  14. HELL YEAH they got great prices they’re scamming air filters off new trucks everybody knows that’s where the real money is... Question for the OP does this dealership require the salesman to go out with you on test drives? If not some cheap ass probably swapped out filters cause they are to cheap to buy one. Trust me this kind of thing happens... Also always change your own oil? If not better check your receipts or maybe homeboy @ the quickie lube needed a new one for his truck? The cabin filter set up in these suck. I change mine once a year regardless of miles. (mines a garage queen)
  15. Most importantly your not in the hospital right now. Not necessarily I’ve been out of the auto industry for awhile now but I towed and wrenched for 8+ years. My understanding is at least at that time it took 2 sensors to deploy the frontal airbags. Also it depends on where you hit on the vehicle as to whether you take out a sensor or not lot a times you’ll hit low or high of it depending on how the vehicles line up.. I’ve seen air bags deployed in literally 5mph parking lot accidents and I towed a car once that rolled 7 plus times and not one bag went off there wasn’t one piece of glass left in it and not one foot of straight body panel on the thing. Also if you’ve never been hit in the chest by a bag (and I’m guessing you haven’t) your not missing anything. My buddies a retired cop that took one to the chest (because that’s where you’ll usually get it from my understanding) and ended up in the hospital for the day and was black and blue for months afterwards. Once the truck makes it to the body shop for repairs (if it’s not a total loss) hit them up I’d have to believe with all the “tech” in these newer vehicles that it would throw a SRS code if the bag(s) should have blown but didn’t. Best of luck with the insurance companies and hopefully your physically ok in the long run.
  16. I asked the same question he answered in this thread.
  17. Their website says 249.99 https://www.whiteautoandmedia.com/product/2014-2019-k2xx-truck-suv-wams-spec-bcm-programming/
  18. There’s all kinds of these switches out there you just have to go find them type homelink light switch in the search on Amazon. Any of the ones that say will work with your brand garage door opener should be compatible. https://www.homelink.com/compatible/products
  19. Just so you know at this time you can’t add the factory integrated trailer brake controller. It is not plug ang play several have tried none have succeeded... yet... This thread hase several different controller options other than the standard knee banger set up.
  20. Unfortunately they have stopped doing this. Should still be able to get a copy from most local stealerships (assuming they are customer friendly) talk to the parts counter people about printing one off.
  21. Couldn’t agree more. If I knew something about this and felt for whatever reason I couldn’t tell others how to avoid this situation I would feel like a real POS just antagonizing everyone who has posted on here that has had to deal with this... guess that’s just me?
