I dont know if you are still thinking about this but I am a nav specialist for GM and FOrd and can tell you that it doesnt matter what the truck model is, I have a kit that will work for you and is fully factory integrated.

 

I sell it for 1499.00 complete with everything needed and has the DVD built in. So you can watch it while in park or get an inmotion module to watch it while driving. I have at least 150 different gm navigation installations under my belt and am a certified gm programming tech.

 

Im here if you need my help

 

 

Thanks

Hello GDelgado,

I have an 09' Silverado Hybrid. It has NAV and a dealer installed backup camera with the rear view mirror screen as I was told GM won't sell the factory installed backup cam that displays on the NAV screen. I would enjoy the larger screen. I was wondering if your expertise would enable me to set it to display there? I was also wondering if I could unblock the NAV destination page while moving without installing a lockpick mod or if you had some similiar devise. My desire is to add a front camera, unblock the nav destination page, unblock bluetooth, and I may add a lockpick anyway because I may want to control my ipod via the radio/steering wheel controls. I have had Coastals Lockpicks on my Prius for 3 years and they are good products and I have never had any issues with them. However, they are expensive and they make you buy much more features in each package than you really may want. They intentionally group the lockpicks that way I am sure. Let me know if I may be able to bypass some expense and find an easier way to achieve my goal. Thanks!

The only problem is there is a line through the GPS on the screen and the arrow does not point in the right direction. Also, do I need a VSS kit??? PLease HELP!!! Went to the dealership and they did not know

You need to run a wire from the back of the nav unit over and connect to the VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor) wire above the e-brake pedal on the drivers side. You can buy the wire or kit off of ebay.

 

Without doing this your nav is only working off of satellites and it will only give approximate locations.

Mel, I know you posted this ages ago, but did you ever get answers on how to hook up the rear view cam to display on the NAV screen. Thanks in advance!

      Help purchasing a touch screen digitizer

      By mark249 · Posted

      Brought my 2015 Colorado into the dealership to check my touch screen issues, had that ghost touch thing happening. They said I needed a new touch screen and they could either order me one for $500. The lady at the service deck was nice enough to tell me I could order a touch screen online for less, she did stipulate that the touch screen had to be factory OEM, you can't pair an aftermarket screen to my radio seeing it was 2015, it had to be a GM factory OEM only. I found a few on Amazon and Ebay by the numbers on the back of the old screen, DJ080PA-01A GM# 22740886, Some said "OEM" in the description and others just said "Replacement". Would a replacement be the same as a OEM as long as it had the same numbers on the back of the screen? In some of the descriptions they also show different brand names but same numbers, is that an issue?

      I have both but typically use the 4 legged walker (wheels on front, ski's on back).   The four wheeler is starting to be used on "longer" outdoor walks.  The 4 legged walker is particularly helpful in practicing good walking posture.  Both of my knees are at different stages of recovery and I'm trying to not develop poor habits.  I can actually manage with a cane but it's very difficult not to favor one leg over the other.  My PT recommends I continue with my 4 legged walker for a while.  Yesterday was four weeks since my last knee replacement and I'm excited about my progress to date.  It has been a hell of a rough journey so far but it is exciting to witness  systematic and continuous improvement.  I went for years watching the decline of my "mobility".  It seems that everyday now I am alerting my wife to something I can do now that I couldn't a day or two ago!  I encourage anyone facing the prospect of knee replacement to share any concerns with others who have had the surgery.  It isn't an instant fix but rather is a considerable amount of short term pain for long term gain.  Recovery time and pain levels vary for individuals post surgery but the end results are typically very positive and I've never encountered anyone regretting having had the surgery.

      The lifter issue can be dealt with by shorter oil changes and quality oil IMO.

      Wiring Help, Please

      By Core-Lokt · Posted

      I'm putting in an A-pillar pod/gauges, and I'm asking if anybody can identify a (preferably) fuse for a switched power and illumination circuit on the driver's side interior fuse panel. Offhand, everything I checked with a test light was constant-hot, and I'd much rather uses a piggyback fuse. I can certainly find a wire, but I'd rather not half-tap.   Thanks in advance for any help.
