I installed this thingy on the top of my 2017 6.2L. Not really sure what it does, but my truck goes really fast now.

Jrob - I went with the little Choetech charger off amazon for like $12.99. Took the black plastic casing to get to the actual charger on the inside and that lil guy fit like a glove right under the rubber and plastic in the console lid. I was worried at 1st that the charger wouldn’t be able to charge through the lil rubber mat AND that black plastic part of the console lid but it did. Took a 5/16 drill bit and BARELY widened one of the little holes (circled them in the pic) under the console lid to run the usb cable through. Works great and looks clean for the most part.

Yea man that’s the one. Guess the price went up a few bucks. But just peel the four rubber feet from the bottom of it,remove the small screws, and take that black plastic casing off to slim it out a little bit

Installed a wireless charger in my console this weekend. 

 

I wont go in detail on the steps as most know how to do it, but when putting the plastic tray back in I used 4 screws to mount the plastic tray back in place. The tray does still sit flush, and has no visual difference or feel than when 6 screws were in. I have used this over the weekend, and it has easily picked up the phone each time it is set down, and remains charging as long as the truck in on. 

 

Below is the charger I used. To access the wireless coil, there are 4 rubber feet on the bottom that you need to remove. This will give you access to 4 screws. Once they are removed simply separate the top and bottom and the coil will come out.

that's funny, I just did the same install this weekend with almost the same charging mat on my 2014 sierra.

the one below is a similar model and also works.

Installed a 22" light bar from Amazon this weekend. Mounted on the two brackets that were from the lower valence that i removed. I had to add a 24" piece of aluminum behind so it was mounted to the holes since they were only about 15 inches from each other. It fits perfectly between the two tow hooks too.

0ac32c5c8d6c3e8e7cb9c5de095572f3.jpgFinally finished out my headlight and fog light switch up. Like I said, I went with Alla LEDs for both. Output isn’t bad. Haven’t had the opportunity to use the highbeams that much but it’s a definite improvement.

Did you remove the entire air dam or just the bottom ~1 1/2" piece? I know you said lower valance just wasn't sure exactly how much you took off. I like the idea and location

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      While waiting for parts I have been working on installing the AC compressor, new accumulator, and orifice tube. Also changed out the high side ball valve (original). The orifice tube that was in there wasn't too bad. Slightly dirty, a little bit of junk, but not blocked. Glad I changed it out.   The accumulator, which should have been a 5 minute job, may have just burned $50. Put some PAG in it, wrote the date and mileage on the side, fresh o-rings and gooey'd up the threads and rings with Nylog. Got everything connected and snugged and was going to vacuum down the system, and....   My manifold gauge won't fit on the port. It's not an R12 service port. It LOOKS like an R134 service port but the diameter is a hair too large. There's a sticker on the accumulator that says it's designed to be used with R12 and R134a systems only. So it's not R1234yf. Even if I reduced the diameter slightly with a file, the shoulder on the port is too large so the quick-connect valve won't lock on. I'm stumped. It's going back, and 50/50 on if they'll give me a refund.   Also, I did a fuel pressure test.... Key on, the gauge spikes to about 60psi and quickly bleeds off, like 2psi per second. The fuel isn't going into the plenum, no smell, starts fine, so I'm guessing there's a bad check valve in the pump and the fuel is just draining back into the tank. oh, hell. But, it shouldn't be a problem, pump primes just fine and the truck starts right up. It just means I can't really ever use fuel pressure to verify a leak at the injector or intake.

      SERCICE ESC message?

      By No F-bdy Bs · Posted

      Got this yesterday out of nowhere. Truck is a 25',6.6 gasser with 8k miles.  Only semi anomaly is that the truck had been sitting, uncranked for 6 days. Elec Stability Control showed immediately upon cranking, not while driving. No drivability issues, just the message. Battery didn't seem to be weak when cranking over.  I drove it, killed it, let it sit a few hrs with no avail.  Truck is 100% stock. No damage.

      on-wheel cellphone control: 2026 1500 WT (2.7L 4WD std cab)

      By newdude · Posted

      This can be done.  It is not cheap and requires an instrument cluster swap with custom programming, new steering wheel with the controls on it, and a special jumper harness.   The cluster upgrade - 12.3” Digital Cluster Upgrade – 2022.5–2026 Silverado / Sierra (T1 Refresh Pickup) - WAMS   The wheel upgrade - Steering Wheel Upgrade Kit – 2022.5–2026 Silverado / Sierra (T1 Refresh Pickup) - WAMS   The column harness upgrade - 2019 - 2026 Silverado / Sierra: Steering Wheel LIN Bus Harness - Harness Dr. - DIY Done Right     The problem with doing all of this?  You pretty much can't have any programming done to your truck that involves the cluster ever again.  The dealer won't be able to program the cluster as GM's system will only pull data for the cluster the truck came with.  So it would be advised also to turn off over the air updates.   TLDR;  Should have bought an LT double cab?  You'd have a power seat, the wheel controls, the cluster, all things that you've been seeking in your various posts so far about your new WT regular cab.

      2026 TurboMax L3B 2.7L: AFM/DFM present/disablable? [2026 Silverado 1500WT: 4WD RC RB 2.7L]3GCNKAEK9TG345558

      By newdude · Posted

      Yes.  The 2.7 Turbomax has Active Fuel Management.  It is NOT the same as the V8s.  Totally different system.     Here is an article from GM when the 2.7 came out explaining the cylinder deactivation and the valve lift system.  Starts at the section called "SCS Valvetrain":   New Turbocharged 2.7L 4-Cylinder Engine Powers Full-Size Trucks – TechLink         This is an internet myth going around.  It was alleged that some 5.3s had this mystical 8th digit of the VIN as an "E" which somehow meant it had a new one year only 5.3 that didn't have DFM.  The writer of said article and the person that made the claim conveniently can't count because they posted the VIN.  The 8th digit was a "D" which meant its still the 5.3 with DFM.  The 9th digit of the VIN was an "E" and the 9th digit isn't the engine code.  At all.
