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.

Same exact thing happened to me last month. Dead battery in the driveway, wouldn't even turn over click-click-click. Tried to jumper my starter in the fuse box and that was dead also. New battery, new starter, fired right up like a champ.

Nice write up, Any photo's .

I got that same dash cam, really like it. Even with my 'dark' tint on the back, still get great videos.

- Dash Cam

 

Nice, @Ravenkeeper(all of it)! Indeed, @jpinoy, the VanTru 4 dash cam is great!

Now, if I could figure out a way to get the auto-fold options activated!


As far as the auto-fold power mirrors, I emailed with @pgamboa(awesome and quick responses) and he mentioned this function is in the seat memory module and resultant programming so I'm leaving it to be manually activated.
It's just a tap of the switch fold out or in, so I'm good with that. :)

@MikeBMW, that I know of, there is no auto-folding mirrors.  Set your vehicle settings, and press "LOCK" or "UNLOCK" for 1second.  Looking at the truck when you press the buttons, when the lights flash, let go.

Which vehicle settings do I set?
I've been through the infotainment settings and all of the BT Diesel/Autosync settings and I can't find a way to enable auto-fold.

Yeah, Ive watched videos explaining that setting but mine doesn't have that, commensurate with @pgamboaemailing me this is a part of the seat memory module function and resultant programming of the BCM.

You could buy the DL3 (power fold/puddle lamp mirrors) and do what I did and buy @pgamboaDL8 to DL3 conversion harnesses and switch to make them power fold, as far as pressing the lock/unlock I don’t think mine has that function.

I had the dealer install tow mirrors a while ago and they replace the door harness at that time.
I installed power fold tow mirrors last weekend along with the proper mirror switch for power fold.
Installation was plug and play.
What I was looking to do is get the auto fold working but my truck isn't equipped to do such.
Power fold - no issue; auto fold, too much upgrading required.

My factory warranty expired yesterday on the way to work.  Within 25 minutes I received 3 phone calls alerting me to that. 😀  I guess I should have taken them up on one of the offers, as the transmission and lifters are going to blow up any day now. 😆

 

Unfortunately, this is the clearest of this pictures I took.  Camera did not want to focus on lights in the dark.

Unless your power fold mirrors were a part of the seat memory package you won't have those choices.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      I was around and remember that era very well, so I'm calling b/s on that statement. If they were that bad no police department or taxi company would've bought a single one ... but they were used in both services (and fire) for DECADES. They were bulletproof and proven. Even the early 21st century ones weren't too bad! The early models were legendary.   Mine is proof, but people like atlas are blinded by agenda and refuse to believe facts right before their very eyes.   Even decades after they were built, a new generation started driving them, posting all their builds and shenanigans on Grandmarq.net and Crownvic.net. The failures would show up then, since they all were deep past 100k-150k miles by that point, and younger drivers tend to be a little aggressive, especially with vehicles than can lay a one-tire fire for as long as you hold your foot in it. They've more than proven themselves over the decades.   The only thing that'll really take them out is road salt. The bodies and sheet metal were garbage. A victim of the cheapout FoMoCo and GM have been partaking in before then, and since.   Today it's the stuff that counts - the undercarriage that rots away first!    GMs Caprice was no slouch either. Reliable as a stone ax - the opposite of what they build now.

      Let me know how your vehicles do in 10 years. You don't know ******, kid. 😂    There's a reason that Panther platform was used as police, fire, and taxi service for DECADES ... long before you were born, apparently.

      Disconnecting Battery

      By davester · Posted

      If your connector also has a big lever to get the connector on and off, you don't want to force the lever either way, as it becomes a bigger problem if you bust the lever or the mechanism it works.

      Disconnecting Battery

      By davester · Posted

      It's just useful to disconnect the battery to prevent odd shorting out when unplugging/plugging stuff together.  I also  touch the two cable ends together (after disonnecting) to drain the small amount of stored battery energy in various modules.   I believe the main system where you need to be more concerned with, so you need to do the above and then wait some time, iss when you are working on the air bag system, to prevent inadvertent firing of the air bags.   The in-cab switches are just that, plain switches, it's generally not a problem to swap them in/out.  For my '12, I'll get an error message on the dash if I power up the truck w them unplugged, but that's it (power up= turn the ignition on).   The ITBC located above the spare tire is a computer that manages the trailer brake system.  That is probably more important to have the battery disconnected.  It does have to be programmed to the truck, either before or after it's installed, for it to work.  For my '12, I had a very hard time reinstalling the main connector to it (IDK if yours is the same or not), it turned out the silicon seal was jamming up, preventing it from going on all the way.  I finally got it fully installed by lubing the seal with a bit of dielectric grease, then it slid on and latched in place easily.

      Remote Start Noise 2024 2500 HD Gas

      By BCGM · Posted

      JR ! I just got the truck back from the Dealership today . The technician did a cold remote start on the truck this morning and it made the noise . It was determined that it was a starter issue and replaced it under warranty . Of course   it did not make the sound after a new starter was put in because the truck was not cold . We will we see what happens tomorrow morning when I start the truck cold  . Keep tuned !   Oh I found a video on YouTube of a cold start and it did the same thing your truck and mine do , I will see if I can find it and post it up
