GMC in the bed looks great too.

The factory bed liner is perfect. So glad I clicked that option. Truck shops would struggle to replicate that's for sure.

I agree. Mine looks like turds compared to that.

Is that emblem molded into the bed or added on then sprayed over?

Headlight out AGAIN

 

Morimoto kit is not making me happy :/

I had the same issue with my DDM kit. One light went out every so often. Check the relay, that's where my problem was.

I'm blowing ballasts

Not trying to go off topic but since you are gaving a problem similar to one I had, you need to check a few things. First, Is it the same ballast every time? What brand of HID's, what color temperature, and what type ballast are you running?

Have you checked for a good ground connection?

 

I don't have HID's in my trucks but I do have them installed in my ATV's. I had a ballast issue with a ballast constantly blowing and it ended up being that the ballast was not getting the proper voltage.

 

HID's are known to be stubborn, very voltage sensitive, not enough volts and you may end up with a blown ballast, too high voltage and you may end up with a blown ballast again.

 

 

If you keep blowing the ballast, there is definitely a problem with the power getting to the ballast OR a bad ground to the light. Check yout relay to be sure the proper voltage is getting past the relay on the side that is constantly blowing. If that checks out to be fine, check the ground side of the circuit to see if you may be having a problem with voltage dropping. If the ground is good, there should be very little voltage at your connection, you probably already know that.

 

When you are testing the voltage, I actually used the normal factory style headlight bulb so there was a load on the circuit while testing and so I did not destroy another brand new HID ballast. I just plugged in the factory connection for the headlight in place of the ballast connection.

 

I solved the voltage issue with my ATV's HID ballast issue this way. It ended up being a bad ground on one side.

 

 

"MIKE1220", beautiful truck you have there. The way you have it set up is perfect! The amount of chrome is just right and those wheels are really eye catching with the chrome accents.

Alternating sides and I'm using a wiring harness. It's the Sierra Spec kit from TRS with the capacitor link for voltage stabilization.

 

I'm gonna try a different brand and see if it changes things

Not sure what GM is doing to add the Chevy symbol, gmc, or Denali to the bed of the truck. There isn't bolt holes or anything exposed. May be some composite material glued on...just my assumption.

My truck is scheduled to be at my dealership the 27th. I should've checked off the spray in liner. Oh well, I'll go to the trusty line-x.

Thanks man, I have new rims on the way, soon I'll have an RCX 6" w/ Fuel Lethal 20x9 wrapped in Mickey Thompson Deegan 38s in a 35x12.5x20. I can't wait.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
