While replacing the head unit in my 08 Silverado LT, I notice that there is an unused harness behind the pocket that's right below the A/C controls. I looks as if the pocket can be replaced by some other option. Can someone tell me what the harness is for and if it is as simple as plugging in a panel?

Not sure but I think thats where the 4x4 options go.

Those are for the optional power adjustable pedals,heated washer fluid,rear-park assist,and Stabilitrak.

No,The 4x4 switch is to the left of the HVAC controls.

It was just a guess, but your answer makes more sense.

so basically, you could add URPA, Adjustable Pedals, and Heated Washer Fluid to a truck that was not built with it!?! and it would totally Rule if its just Plug and Play for the EATC too!

NO,Absolutely not....The URPA would also require the sensors in the bumper along with the all the wiring harness's and LED indicators,The adjustable pedals would require of course the pedals with motor,The heated washer fluid would require the heater module and wiring harness.

And don't forget GM telling MicroHeat (the company that made the washer fluid heater) to F off. So getting one might become increasingly difficult. Last I saw there were 2 Toyotas that used the thing.

 

Just checked, MicroHeat.com is gone. They are done with. Which is fine, they made a terribly flawed product and refused to fix it and they lost, basically, their only contract. Serves them right. Sucks that those employees had to loose their jobs though.

I know you will have to get all the rest of the parts, but basically, the truck is sort of pre-wired for the options.

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling.

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.
