I can absolutely confirm that the above post is good information. I accomplished this in August when I first purchased my 2015.5 Lt. EVERYTHING works accept AUTO REVERSE TILT or AUTO FOLD because this would involve memory module. AUTO DIMMING works with correct rearview mirror. POWER FOLD works when button is pressed.I believe the mirror switch that I used was #23154702. GOOGLE and Download the GM UPFITTER BODY BUILDER MANUAL FOR 2015 CHEVROLET SILVERADO/GMC SIERRA ELECTRICAL SECTION PDF file. This will be your most important reference.This reference manual will also list the correct pin removal tool to use so that you will be able to remove the extra wires and pins from a donor harness. Much easier to use a donor harness than to hard wire. Everything will plug right in to the correct pin of your existing harness. I wish I could remember exactly what I did to get everything to work but just study the appropriate pages in the manual. Pg 847 is where the door harness section starts. The auto dim interior mirror has 3 extra wires Page 299.You will have to wire the 3 extra wires of the interior mirror to the X61A Junction Block - Instrument Panel X3 page 282. Pin #8 Automatic Day/Night Mirror Signal and pin #9 Automatic Day/Night Mirror Low Reference and pin#13 Backup Lamp Supply Voltage. The backup lamp voltage is what turns off the auto dim so you can see at night when backing up. One important note. I am not sure but I believe that the 2015.5 units have the new interior wiring harness.

 

I bought 2015 Silverado LT builds after sep. do you think my truck will have the new interior harness?

Take a look at this How To I just created. I just finished this upgrade and ran into the same issues you did. The reason why you lose functionality is because the harness you got is pinned out for t

Hey All, just completed the DL8 to DL3 mirror swap on my '15 GMC Sierra SLE. The magical door harness from the All Terrain exists. I bought a set of dl3 mirrors and door harness from a guy with a '16

Your tha man. That's exactly what I was looking for. Since you mentioned it auto dim on the drivers side mirror would be a pretty nice addition.. Starting to regret not getting the slt but I HAD to ha

From what I have read any build after August 2014 is considered 2015.5. Google 2015.5 Silverado and you can read up on that. My truck was built May 2015.

in the process of installing DL3's on my buddies truck. he purchased a set of mirrors/harnesses. we swapped harnesses out in both doors and this is what we found.

 

-signals in mirrors work

-puddle lamps do not work as they should, we noticed that the led puddle lamps are on CONSTANTLY but very very dim. Had to hold hand under light and look very very closely to see this

-mirrors no longer power adjust like they used to, the drivers mirror will power adjust up/down but not left/right and passenger mirror will not adjust at all

-auto fold does not work (have yet to buy new switch trying to figure out correct one to order)

 

 

could someone help us out here as too what we need to do to make puddle lamps work correctly, power adjust to work again, and what switch we need to order

 

Vehicle is a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT crew

Part number #23154702 should be the power fold mirror switch you are looking for. I have the DL3 mirrors and swapped the switch and the power fold works.

What is the difference between 23154700 and 23154706? I mean I see the first one is a like rotating switch to select which mirror you're wanting to use. And the other one has a push button/selector light for each selection. But other than that why the two different types?

I am unsure what the differences are in the part numbers you have provided. I do know that on a 2014 LT based truck, I added the DL3 mirrors and the switch I mention was all I used to actuate the power fold function on the mirrors.

ok, reason i ask is i read in one of the searches that i did that they used mirror switch 23154706...

What about auto-dim? Did anybody get that to work without hacking into the standard harnesses?

could someone help me figure out the issues I'm having with my install? and what i need to do? I'm confused as can be with why they're not working or doing what they're doing. (problems stated above)

The LT trucks and below are missing 2-3 wires going from the inside mirror to the BCM/outer mirror. You must have the auto dim inside mirror. This controls the auto dim functions on the outside driver's mirror.

I know most of the people in this thread are using the DL3 folding mirrors, but I am attempting to install the power fold tow mirrors and ended up ordering the wrong switch. I have a 2014 Silverado LT with DL8 power adjust mirrors. I ordered the OEM power fold mirrors and the 23154705 switch that was recommended in another thread.

 

Unfortunately, the switch was keyed slightly differently. Like someone else did, I made it fit and ended up blowing a fuse. I am planning to order the 23154702 switch, but was wondering if someone has a picture of it. I am trying to determine what it looks like and if it will fit in the stock plastic trim like the other switch I purchased.

 

Thanks,

Nick

Yes it will fit the factory trim. It is the same shape as the one you have now with three buttons instead.

 

The reason some people can just add something in this case the switch and others can't has to do with the year and option level installed on the truck in question. It appears that any LTZ truck needs less to make this function and has most of the correct wiring already. The same seems to be the case for most trim levels of the 2015 1/2 model year trucks as well. Mine is a 2014 LT originally and needs the wiring in the doors changed and a cross body harness connecting both with the additional wires. Same with the auto dim function, I need to change the mirror and add three wires from the inside mirror plug to the door jamb plug to make the auto dim function.

      Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.

      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?
