  1. Love it and look forward to further development. I am using a generic Bluetooth ODB2 module with ODB Fusion in CarPlay. It works but it would be awesome to have a native app. Let me know if I can help with testing or another set of eyes.
  2. Sorry to dig up an old thread, but has anyone done this with older parts? I have a 2026 LTZ with the bedview camera but no rearview LCD. From what I understand, I need to: 1) Buy a new LCD Rearview. Will old models work, or do I have to buy the latest one? 2) Buy a brake light with a dual camera. Will the old one work if I move the bed camera? 3) Move the bed view camera from the old brake light to the new one 4) Run wire from rearview cam to lcd Does this sound right? Hopefully can get some folks who actually know. FB is a mess of bad info.
  3. It's a little unclear in the video but the fog button on the switch never lights up green nor changes at all from the white whereas the off road switch flips between white when off and orange when on. Just wondering if there is a wire missing to enable the fog light switch to light up green when the button is pressed like the off-road lights up orange.
  4. Having one issue with the fog light button and the pgamboa harness. On my LT truck, the old switch fog light button doesn't light up. With the new harness the off road light lights up as expected but not the fog. Phil, Tinkering Fox, do I need to add another wire to the harness for the fog button light up? https://youtu.be/CRNs1QOPEXQ
  5. Just wanted to add another reference point. Installed my new headlight switch and pgamboa harness in my '18 2500HD. I don't have a light bar or anything hooked up yet but based on the lights on the dash everything is working as expected.
  6. Got mine too from Phil. Trying to find a decent quality bar for behind my 2500 grill.
  7. Hate to be a counterpoint here but I was in the same boat as you. I bought a '17 1500 5.3l thinking I wouldn't have any issues pulling our 7250lb GVWR Jayco trailer. I traded it in on a '18 2500 gasser. Was barely under the max payload on the 1500 but it worked too hard in my opinion on the mountain passes here in the Northwest and even with the trailer brakes and my WDH dialed I always felt on edge. With the 2500, I don't sweat how much I have in the bed of the truck or where exactly the load is in the trailer anymore. It probably is the placebo effect but I arrive more rested and less stressed. There are some issues with the 2500 though. I thankfully have a short commute but the gas mileage sucks, I get 12-13 mpg not towing and around 8 mpg with the trailer. Overall it all to me it came down to how much I was going to be towing the trailer, did I feel comfortable pushing the limits of my 1500 and how stressed after towing the trailer was I when I got to the place we were camping? I do not regret my decision. If we lived somewhere flatter I would have kept the 1500 I think though.
  8. I had the Redarc in my Silverado 1500 LT. Worked great with my trailer and install wasn't too bad. I put it under the screen where the heated seats button would be in the higher trim trucks. Traded off the 1500 for a 2500 HD and didnt grab any picks of the install.
  9. Thanks again to Phil! I traded off my 1500 with tow mirrors Phil helped me with in on a 2500 and the new 2500 came with non-power folding mirrors. Phil worked with me to verify what was needed to upgrade to power-fold, with the 2500 with DPN mirrors it is a simple swap to DQS and a new power-fold switch, no harnesses needed. Phil is a great resource! Thanks again!
  10. Has anyone had any luck with 22944268? I bought a complete console off of eBay and I have having the same trouble mentioned here with 22944268. Seller refunded my money from the console and told me to keep it, so I was looking to replace just the homelink module. Looks like 22944268 is about $30 cheaper than the new part 23341161.
  11. Found this on the TSB site Hogtiming posted in another thread. Free TSB site: http://www.bbbind.com/free_tsb.html http://www.revbase.com/BBBMotor/TSb/DownloadPdf?id=201990 Seems to apply to MX5 transmissions and the torque converter shudder seems to match with what we are seeing. Think I am going to print it out an bring it in with me next time I am at the dealer. document.pdf
  12. No. Found dropping the 4wd from auto to 2wd helps a little bit but I still find it harsh after an additional 2000 miles. Going to try a new dealer at my next oil change and see if I get anywhere with them.
  13. Got no where with the dealer. They said I need to drive the vehicle more so the transmissions learns not to clunk. Quote from my service Report: "Customer States: Check transmission for jerking when starting to move from full stop and clunks when engaging into gear. CAUSE: Verified bump feeling. This concern is normal due to auto stop feature and the e-assist system. Rec customer drive vehicle more."
  14. Having the same clunks and jerks from the transmission. I am taking it into the dealer next week for an oil change and am going to have them look at it.
  15. Agreed, I see the most benefit driving in the city but there is a little benefit on the highway., Only have 250 miles on it so far so we'll see how the MPG numbers hold up in the longer term.
  16. Picked up a 2017 Summit White Crew Cab LT with the 5.3 and E-assist. Nice having the extra ton of tow capacity and seeing around 22 MPG in mixed city/highway driving. I believe it is only available in California, Oregon and Washington. It has some quirks with auto-shutoff at stop lights and the batteries on the floor under the rear seats. Having difficulty to find any storage that will fit under the rear seats. Anybody find storage that works? At the lowest it is down to about 5".
