So as you can read, I recently wired up the console. Phil had mentioned that I may need to get my HMI reprogrammed for everything to work as it should. Probably too expensive for me at this point. At least I have the two USB ports in the console that work. My problem is that out of all the USB drives I have lying around, only one will actually work properly. The other ones will play the first song on the drive over and over. Any ideas on why they don't work? I have tried reformatting them. I have tried different brands and sizes. I bought a 64gb and a 32gb today in two different brands and neither one worked. They do work perfect in my computer though. What do you guys think?

Several hundred? Uggh. Who programs it? Dealership? I can't just get one thats plug and play huh? Thats a shame. Looks like I will just be using cds for a while. Thats just too much. I found a HMI 2.0 like I have for $200, but I am not willing to spend more than that. Oh well, I love the console anyway. USB media was just a great option to have.
-
I went back out and now the usb ports in the console stopped working. I may get another HMI. I have a 2014 truck, but I think the console is out of a 2016. Can I just replace my HMI with the same 2.0 with Nav or do you think I need to get a 2.5? I have the blue plug for the antenna on mine.
-
The only thing is that I had the green short cord for the usb in the glovebox and it was working fine. Could it be the actual usb ports you think? Do you know how difficult it would be to change that out? The HMI could be the culprit, but I just don't see how.
-
I have the green to grey from HMI (green) to USB input and the black/brown from HMI to the brown port.

OK, might need a little help here. I followed the diagram and now I am able to use both USB ports in the console, but the front ones have power but will not play anything. Also will not charge the phone. Is there anything else I can try? I would really like it all to work. I am not sure about the charging top as I haven't tried that, but I have an android phone and it says that it only works with Iphones.

I don't use Apple anything so that isn't an issue for me. I am just curious why there are so many USB ports really. Can I have USB stick full of music in each one...plugged in all at once....and filter through them in the stereo? I won't have a chance to finish the wiring up until after Christmas (Thanks to working in retail) otherwise I would just test it.
-
Thanks. Will give this a shot soon. So should I be able to use USB ports for music in all the USB ports?
-
Thank you for the response, but I am not sure what I am even reading...lol. I found out the green port is for a USB in the glove box. Now I am just looking to see what the black port supports. I do have GPS. I drive a 2014 LTZ also and added the console recently.
-
I have searched the web and here and came up empty. Can someone tell me which each port on the HMI module does? I know the blue is navigation, but there is also green and black. Does anyone know what those two do? Thanks in advance.
-
I have power to all the ports, but no media ability in the console. I have the wire going from the green port on the HMI to the input on the USB. The plug I have would not fit in the black port. In the video it seems like the green and black port are just power ports. Do you know which each port does individually? There is a plug in the black port that is no longer in use. Should I use the black port only for the console? Green is only for the glovebox? Thanks Just tried the AUX input and it is working, just not the USB ports. All have power but will not play to radio Also the wireless charging pad does not charge my phone. But that could just be my phone. Not 100% sure about it. Not a need really, I just like everything to work.

I have ordered the flowmaster system and am planning on dual out the back. I also want to put on the Hellwig Sway Bar. Does anyone know if they will interfere with each other? I think I am going to have the sway bar done first at a local mechanic shop then take it to an exhaust shop for the exhaust just in case they have to adjust it. Any thoughts?
-
Thanks for the heads up. I never plan on doing nitrous or anything like that. The truck is pretty great the way it is, but I am looking for some better performance on take off and when entering the interstate or passing people. Plus more of a truck sound to it. Right now I can barely even hear it running.

Will do. I am hoping to get it done in the next 2 weeks.
