  1. My 2019 GMC Sierra 1500 elevation, less than 25k on the clock, has developed an issue with the Fuel Gauge pointer. I noticed it when I started it, when the gauges do their startup swipes, what would normally be E, it moves to the 3/4 mark, and when it's Full, the pointer points to the speedometer. Is there a way to get into it to pull the pointer off and realign it to point properly? The gauge stepper motor does do the sweeps like the other gauges, just isn't pointing where it should.
  2. I bought a dryer lint brush, wrapped it with some cheese cloth I had laying around so I wouldn't scratch things up. The handle is long enough to get where I need to clean. My kid uses a long handled cob web duster\brush on his. There isn't much room.
  3. I will try FaceBook Messenger. I sent him a message from the Contact Us on the harnessdr website over a week ago, no response. Might be busy, or maybe out of town, not sure. I decided to make an attempt to see if it will work. I ordered the USB Cable, 84022315, green on one end, grey on the other end. I think I can trim just the clip off the green connector and plug it into the USB under the passenger seat. I measured the input to the USB trim, and am assuming it is the same dimensions as the output side if the USB. This should allow me to retain the green plug intact, less the retention clip, then, plug the grey end into the USB in the trim. The black to brown cable is already plugged into the USB in the trim on what he called the output side of the trim USB plug (Black plug), and the brown to the USB Connector in the console that I am assuming powers the USB plugs in the storage area. I am trying not to remove the console. I will see if it will work, and if it has enough power for all 4 USB plugs. I find it odd the one USB cable is there for the internal USB plugs, but the other USB isn't. The cable should be here on Friday, so I will know on Saturday if it will work or not.
  4. The 2019 LD is the old body style. The previous owner said he bought the harness installed from that site, it is installed and powers the cigarette lighter plugs, the light inside the storage compartment, and that is what powers the lid charger, it's this one https://harnessdr.com/product/16-pin-center-console-conversion-harness/ The issue I am having is the USB connections, the USB isn't part of that harness. The harnessdr website shows 2 USB cables running from the HMI to the USB connections in the console. This truck doesn't have an HMI to plug the 2 USB cables into. I have attached a picture from the harnessdr showing the 2 USB cables and the HMI. Does the USB under the passenger seat work well enough to power the 4 USB outlets, or do I need tear the truck apart to find the other end of where the USB under the passenger seat is connected to and look there for the 2 USB ports?
  5. I have 2019LD, I am the second owner, it has a little over 14k on it. The original owner did the console swap, but said there is no HMI to hookup the USB Cables. I pulled the glove compartment off, there is no HMI there, just a big empty space. I took the radio display off, found WiFi, XMradio module stacked behind it. I looked under the passenger seat, there is a USB cable there, it's not hooked up to anything. The USB is working, I am not sure what it is hooked up to, the original owner told me it went to the jump seat he removed (He gave me the jump seat in case I wanted to use it later). I used the USB module from the original jump seat, plugged it into the USB cable under the passenger seat, it works, found the truck also has Android and Apple Play activated and working. The console has 4 USB plugs, 2 inside the console, and 2 in the console trim piece. The arm rest also has a wireless charging pad, I pulled the arrest apart, it has the updated charging module, 84526978, it wasn't plugged in, but it is now, and it charges my iPhone 14. Can I use the USB plug under the passenger seat to get the console USB working, and will all 4 work, or only 1 or 2?
  6. I picked up a 2019 LD with 16k on the clock, thankfully still under the 5/100k power train warranty. I complained about surging and high temps 200+. The dealer said they couldn't duplicate it, wouldn't change it unless I wanted to pay for it, and they fought for me trying to get it approved, but the area rep said no. GM trying a save $60 in parts, and maybe $100-$200 in labor last week, is now costing them a transmission. The area Rep had to approve the replacement, now the wait for the tranny, I am not sure if it will be a reman or a new one. Either way, that was one expensive TBV for GM.
  7. I am new here, my 2018 power train is up on June 27th, truck only has a little over 9k on the clock. I noticed the transmission was surging, and would shift harshly when I was in Arizona last week. I don't drive it much, didn't notice anything until it was over 110 outside, and I live in a cooler climate. I found this thread, found and printed out the TSB, took it to the dealer. The dealer told me they can't duplicate the issue, primarily because it doesn't get hot enough here, so they won't replace the TBV, they said there has to be other transmission issues before they will replace it, they don't replace them individually. It isn't the cost of buying it myself, or installing it, it's still under warranty, and with my son living in Phoenix, I will be driving in hot weather. Why does GM have to be so difficult?
