  1. You can also get paper manuals from www.helminc.com but the newest one available is for 2018 trucks. And it’s $595!
  2. You could have just saved them as PDF files and keep them on your phone.
  3. It’s really not a bad deal considering they don’t sell a paper version to my knowledge. Three days is not long so set aside time to spend on the computer. I looked for ANYTHING I could possibly need or want and then saved those pages to PDFs. It comes in handy when you want to know how to take apart interior pieces especially. I don’t do much engine work at my age but it’s all there. Just make sure you click on the links. Some pages have links to other pages you might need for that particular process.
  4. Headliner Removal.pdf just an example page.
  5. Yes it covers the newer trucks up to 2024…
  6. Go online and get it. www.acdelcotds.com Cost $22 for three day subscription. I went through the whole thing and saved the pages I wanted to PDFs.
  7. Problem solved. I experimented on my spare fob. Couldn’t figure out how to get to the back side of the button. Took the fob apart and didn’t see anyway to do it without breaking something. Then I had the bright idea to go at the button side. Using a tiny flat blade I pried up the edge of the tailgate button and worked my way around until it finally came off. Turns out it is just glued to the silicone membrane underneath. Next step was to use a Dremel tool to grind off the tit on the bottom of the button cover. I thought that might be enough to solve the problem but it’s not. The silicone membrane has a tit inside that was activating to switch. I gently took a razor blade and cut the center out of the silicone membrane. Then it was just a matter of gluing the button cover back on. Now the tailgate button totally disabled on the fob. No more surprise tailgate openings! I rarely haul anything and although it’s a nice feature, I can live with the button on the dash and on the gate.
  8. Just bought a new Silverado with the power tailgate release button on the key fob. I hate it and really have no need for this button! Several times getting out of the truck with my fob in my pocket the tailgate opens because the button on the fob gets hit from my leg movement. I would like to disable this fob button but upon taking the fob apart I’ve found it’s not like the old fobs. No easy way to get to the back side of the buttons to disable them. Anyone have any ideas or solutions?
  9. 2 door. Not sure what radio. It does have balance and fader control but fade doesn’t do anything. The 2 door work truck trim only comes with two door speakers but I see grills on the dash. Guess they make the dash’s all the same. Just wondering if the wiring under the dash grills is there by default and they only put speakers there if you get a higher trim level than a work truck.
  10. Just bought a 2024 Silverado work truck that only has two speakers in the doors. I see grills on the dash and wondering if there are wires in there to add speakers to the dash. Anyone had those dash grills off and can confirm there is wiring in there?
