Anybody know of any good aftermarket upper control arms for a leveled Silverado? I'm still trying to retain my Factory 18in wheels.

HUD (Heads Up Display) buttons, I retrofitted Yukon/Tahoe/ Cadillac hud in my 15 Silverado.

I need some help and it seems like this thread is very responsive with some pretty bright folks looking at it.  

 

I am having radio issues.  Pretty sure I need a new touchscreen and maybe clock spring.  This started a few weeks ago and so far I have not been able to resolve it without replacing parts.

 

Truck has about 43k miles on it and just passed the 3 year in service mark on 7-31-20.  None of the local dealers are willing to work with me on a fix under warranty.

 

I am not willing to replace my factory radio with an aftermarket unit.  I want to maintain all of the factory options or I would have already ripped this thing out and put in something different.

 

Any input here would be appreciated.  I really don't want to spend a ton of money on different parts that don't resolve the issue.

 

Symptoms:

1) Random tones like someone is pressing buttons. 

                     Tones can be heard almost anytime the truck is running.  This includes no keys in ignition after remote start.

2) DIC randomly switches to the Radio options.  Sometimes the DIC is already on the radio options when I first crank the truck even though I left it on the digital speedo when I shut it off.

                     I like the digital speedo so this is what I always leave the DIC set to.

3) On the radio screen it randomly switches to the browse menu.

4) If the radio is on the home page it will just start rearranging menu items.

5) Touchscreen will occasionally not respond.

 

Troubleshooting performed with no positive effect:

1) disconnect battery for 1 hour

2) calibrate touchscreen thru settings menu

3) remove touchscreen from truck for about 45 minutes.  (mostly did this to get the part number)

 

Videos of symptoms: 

Video 1 shows the menu items getting moved around on their own.

 

Video 2 shows the browse menu randomly popping up

 

Video 3 shows the DIC randomly changing without my input.

@doubeleive Thanks but I want to keep the factory system.  2 small kids means that spending close to $1000 isn't in the budget for my truck's radio.

@Eddie 70 Thanks.  I should have reseated everything at the radio module the other day but I didn't pull that section of dash apart.  Will be giving this a shot in the morning.  Fingers crossed.

I haven't installed this yet on the silverado, I have the same setup on my Denali and everything works that's what it is made for, the alpine was just a suggestion but I did buy the ILX-w650 for the wife's suburban $300 supports front and rear camera's, has wired android auto/carplay, the kenwood's support multiple camera's for a 360 view it just takes a additional module and camera's of course. I have just been waiting for kenwood to release there 10.1" headunits, I have all the parts to swap the entire system otherwise, a 6ch amp, a sub amp, 2 subs, components for the front doors, 2-way's for the rear, 2.5" speakers for the dash, wiring kit and the harness's and adapters, I bought the harness so I can just unplug the stock amp and plug in my aftermarket amps, then if I need too I can pull it out and put it back to stock without cutting or splicing any wires.
