Twice... I had to take a mechanic for a ride the second time.

I also have a 2017 and get the same banging or clunking as you. There are 3 TSB's for this well known issue. First one says to clean and lube the leafs, second one says to tighten the U bolts, third is replacement. I'm currently waiting for both sets of leaf springs to arrive for my truck that has the high mileage of 15k.

If you are connected with a wire and using Android Auto, it automatically chooses Google. It's good to know that I can use the button and not have my phone tethered to the truck! And as always... Enjoy your ride! Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

Yeah, I just keep hitting the key fob as needed to keep it on. You can increase the duration the lights stay on, in the radio. And as always... Enjoy your ride! Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

Def a cool mod! But I still like the cargo/reverse diode mod better. It's way easier, plus you can use your key fob as a switch.

I've been waiting for someone to try! I want to put it on my 17 Silverado lol

There are several threads for the "cargo on with reverse" diode mod. Just put the diode in as shown under the dash, and you are golden! The lights, including bed lights will even come on when you hit the unlock button on your key fob. And as always... Enjoy your ride! Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

You may want to double check, but I believe as soon as you shift out of park or neutral, your cargos shut off. I tried finding a work around but it was too much work. And as always... Enjoy your ride! Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

I was taught how to tap into wires by an old mechanic when I worked in a garage as a mechanic. This method is full proof. Use your wire strippers and cut the sheath where you plan to tap in. Do it as if you plan to strip the wire, but you obviously can't strip it. Make 3 or 4 similar cuts all within about a 1/4 inch. Doing this allows you to expose a small section of the wire. Next you use a pointed tool, I use a pick, and make and eye through the middle of the exposed piece of wire. Now take the wire you plan to attach to it, and strip about 3 inches off the end. Feed it all the way through the hole, and wrap it up and around it's self, then wrap the rest around the wire you tapped into. Tape it down in the direction of the wire, and tape a few inches passed in each direction. And as always... Enjoy your ride! Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

Then put the diode in under the dash and you will control the bed lights with your key fob, and all reverse/cargo lights will come on when in reverse. And as always... Enjoy your ride! Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

If you are trying to tap into the reverse lights, use the center wire on the trailer light connector next to the license plate. That's where I tapped into my reverse lights for my light bar on the back of my truck. And as always... Enjoy your ride! Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

I'm going to ask my dealer about this on my next oil change! And as always... Enjoy your ride! Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

The diode mod is a great mod! It's the most practical mod I've seen, the diodes cost a few cents, and it takes about a min in total to do! Now I use my key fob to turn my cargo/reverse lights to see in the bed of my truck, and for extra light when entering/exiting my house. And as always... Enjoy your ride!

Hey, if you like paying for shit, that's your prerogative! If you don't want to see logical complaints, don't click on the thread! Your opinion is no more accurate then anyone else's! If you don't like it, go pound salt! And as always... Enjoy your ride! Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
