I'm about to install a dvd player in my truck. I have a 2004 Sierra Z71 with the bose system and steering wheel controls. I bought the swi-ps adapter to keep the steering wheel controls I'm looking for some help hooking it up. Which wires to tap into and some pics would be much appreciated. Any help would be nice. Thanks in advanced. Mike

hey mike,

i just finished a full install on my 07 classic. i have the bose and steering controls also. i use the pac-swi module. it had a few wires coming from it but in the end i only needed the fused red, black, green and the jack that went into the headunit. the red gets a switched 12v power so its only hot when the key is in the ign. position. the black gets a ground source. the green taps into the lt. grn wire at terminal b31, which is located at the plug just above the bcm (body control module). the best way to get to this plug is to remove the lower dash on the driver side and the metal shield over the steering wheel column. the plug is just above and to the left of the black box with all the plugs going into it. the swi module i used had two looped wires on it, one purple and the other brown. leave the purple looped and cut the brown. the swi also had a small dial on it that needed to be set according to the head unit i used. after all the connections are made the box will need to be programmed to the buttons. this is easier than it seems but its to much for me to type. the instruction sheet helps but theres pictures and video available at www.pac-adio.com. hope this helps, hit me up for any questions while its still fresh in my skull.

    • This is NOT impact damage nor neglect. There were previous class action lawsuits because of such paint preparation st GM manufacturing plant. Not just the Cherry Red Color. This paint is applied in three processes to obtain the desired color.  The manufacturer will cover for 36 months or 36k miles only. That rust is actually corrosion because of the paint process failure. Corrosion is covered for 100,100 miles or a certain months. However their corrosion doesn't include this type. Go figure. Clearly manufacturer knew from previous paint issues. This started 3 weeks ago out of the blue.  
    • Is it time to put a piece of tape over the CEL? 
    • consider doing electrical testing?  I would guess some power or ground wire/connection has a problem.   alldata.com has wiring diagrams, connector pinouts and diagnostic procedures you can use to find where the problem is.
    • can you tell if the reader is actually trying to get codes, and the pcm is reporting none, or is your reader just silently failing because it's not communicating with the pcm?
    • Any joy with this truck seems to be short-lived.   The CEL for P0172 ("bank 1" too rich) is now "intermittent".   I'm not sure where to check, or re-check, and my energy to keep chasing problems with junk is wearing thin. The P0172 seems to set as I'm coming to a stop, completely off the throttle, when fully warm. At least, that's what it's done the 3? times it's set.   Everything appears normal on the scanner EXCEPT long term fuel trim. There's only one bank on this vehicle because it's an OBD 1.5 with only one upstream O2 sensor. At idle, it's around -16.4% and will dip to -18% occasionally at idle or off-throttle. LTFT approaches 0 when throttle is held at 2500rpm. Short term appears normal, much closer to zero all the time. The LTFT tells me the engine is running rich at idle but compensating at higher load. But, why?   The EVAP purge valve doesn't appear to be leaking/sucking fuel vapor continuously. Is it sticking just as I come to a stop and the engine is choking on fuel vapor and sets the P0172? But that doesn't explain the persistently negative LTFT. Disconnecting the purge valve doesn't seem to make any difference.   I suppose that leaves another dang issue with the fuel injector. A leaking fuel pressure regulator, a new leak in the spider, or a leaking fuel injector/poppet valve I didn't see, or a small crack in one of the spider legs.   The vacuum line leading to the fuel pressure regulator doesn't have raw fuel in it. It doesn't even smell like fuel when it's pulled off, not until you suck air through it, then you can tell it leads to a fuel component. I'd consider that normal? Nothing is signaling this is a FPR issue from the outside, at least.   The oil smells like fuel but it's not building volume. I've noticed most oil in most engines smells like fuel to some degree so it's hard to say if the smell is an issue or not. Or if the engine just still smells like fuel because the crankcase was full of it a few hundred miles ago. But it's been changed twice since that original issue of the leaking fuel line dumping fuel into the intake.   Patience is running very thin. Every win seems to be accompanied by two steps backwards, or another issue that leads to removing at least the top half of the intake manifold. Enough! LOL
