I'll go through and check them all. What one do you think would be the culprit? The one at the switch?

 

 

 

 

 

 

I wonder if a connector isn't seated correctly.

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

The issue you are having after you changed the harness has been reported before in this thread. From what I've read on this subject the best thing to do is use original harness, new switch, and wire the signals and puddle lights separate. Just my .02

Can someone tell me the difference between 23154702 and 23154705?

23154705 will not fit on the trucks. My wife's 15 Tahoe with power fold has that switch. It will not fit on the plug in these trucks. I found out the hard way. 23154702 is the switch you want. I got everything to work with my old harness. You just have to wire signals and puddle lights separately.

I will confirm what txsierra14 said about the 705 switch. There was someone on another thread insisting that is the switch that was needed, so I ordered it and ended up blowing a fuse. It is keyed slightly differently, but I thought maybe it was just tight and forced it in. Bad idea.

 

I now have the 702 on order and will have to wait to get everything working.

Where do you guys ordered the switch 23154702? Because every GM part site said is on back order and they told me I need the VIN from a truck who came with that switch. Someone has an extra switch?

 

 

I got a note today from the place I ordered my switch (cheapestgmparts.com) saying that there was limited quantity, so I needed to provide the VIN from the vehicle that needed it. I just sent the VIN for my LT. On the other parts sites, when I put in my truck, it says the part fits my truck, so I am hoping that will work.

 

When I ordered the previous switch, they didn't say a word.

Ordered this morning, and got this email late today.

 

The item you ordered is on backorder from GM with no expected release date. Your order has been cancelled. We apologize for the inconvenience.

 

Thank you

The part number must have changed or the item is on a long back order for you to get that message. I have had it done to me too. It's been awhile since I got mine, try another vendor (Cheapest GM Parts .com?)

GMPartsGiant say the part is discontinued.

GM Parts East, part not available.

I did order from GANLEY CHEVROLET OF AURORA LLC.

 

I will post any problems.

 

 

UPDATE

 

When I ordered the part I had to include a vin number, and I was promptly contacted this am and told that this part will not fit my LT. I replied with I still want to order the part...

I got my switch today from CheapestGMparts.com and everything works as expected. I know this thread is for the smaller power fold mirrors, but I am using the power fold tow mirrors. I was following this thread because I was having issues finding the correct switch for my '14 LT.

 

Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the help.

So, just for confirmation, please confirm my assumptions of your success:

 

Your truck is a 2014 LT ?

You added power fold mirrors ?

You installed the power fold mirror switch GM part # 23154702 ?

 

and that is all you did to get your power fold mirrors to work?

 

If any other parts were needed include them if you would. Your response will be greatly appreciated... Some have been posting that their turn signals and puddle lights don't work, and those are not my main concern. Thank you in advance for your response.

  • Yes, it is 2014 LT
  • I added the power fold tow mirrors
  • Correct, GM part number 23154702 is the part that worked. I tried another switch that was mentioned and it did not work.

 

The power fold feature worked by simply installing the mirrors, plugging them into the existing harness and installing the new switch.

 

I didn't need any other parts. My mirrors now have the following features working:

 

  • Power fold
  • Power adjust
  • Heated mirror glass

 

The 2014 LT truck will require additional changes to make the other features work. I hope to work on those when the weather is warmer.

So since this was the towing mirrors you added, it's safe to say that the power fold regular mirrors would work to right?

      Cam chain tensioner question

      By B14Sierra · Posted

      So I'm in the middle of a DOD AFM delete on my 6.2 L86 Sierra. I had a pick holding the tensioner but after I got the Cam phaser gear off I was cleaning off all the rtv and apparently I didn't have the pick seated far enough in. I bumped it and the tensioner sprang forward.  I think everything is good but I want a second opinion. The top of the tensioner is just a looped piece of plastic that rides in that channel right? There is no spring or anything is there? I got the gear and chain back on and it seems tight and everything looks right. I'm hoping nothing fell out.

      No low range 4 x 4

      My 2015 1500 LTZ Silverado suddenly won't go into 4 x 4 low. It will go into 4 x 4 high.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Yep, just a quick reference point.    My main point being I’d do a thousand other things before I’d pay 10k for a transmission.    Speaking in ignorance cause I don’t look at these trucks, what is it worth? 20k?

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

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I think users are going to want to pick their monitored parameters, which parameters they want to see first.    It should probably start with baseline at a minimum and adjust to learned, but be able to overlay baseline for comparison.   A simple severity level would be able to determine what type of alerting is appropriate or user selectable.    Why not use the OBD port though?   I think a phone connection would be a good idea, push notifications type deal.   Number 1 issue is having data is useless if you don’t know what the data should be under normal conditions.

      summer road trips in the 2026 2500HD

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I thought I would use your thread and add to it as I just did my first longer drive with my truck in the last couple of days. I drove from the Grande Prairie area of Alberta down to Edmonton and most of where I drove in the city was the ring road so fairly free flowing but a bit of stop and go as well in the city. Stayed the night and returned home and not too many stops along the way each way but every restart and certainly every cold start sets it back for fuel mileage. Why I say that is I see some people will cherry pick a fuel mileage leg after the vehicle had been warmed up driveline wise before hand and its a forgiving ( easy rolling drive leg for example ) and call that their fuel mileage which can give a false perception of reality. I was not heavily loaded at all but never the less the flip bak cover, rubber bed mat, various tools etc and extra jerry cans of fuel all way up to a few hundred pounds of dead weight so its not an empty truck. The cold inflation tire pressures are set more near the freezing point so once they are warmed up driving I was showing 45 front and over 40 rear and realize high inflation pressures would help a little in fuel mileage but certainly not the ride on our crap sections of highway. The weather was good so was not raining as that can really drag mileage down, in fact I had a bit of a tail wind on average driving home. Most people on here would never have driven on that freeway to visualize it but its got a fair bit of rolling type of landscape with numerous river valleys. For the most part I had it on cruise set to 62 although kicking it off if I caught it in time before it started down shifting and self braking going down the grades. Most of the more substantial grades its shifting into 7th I believe as 8th just doesn't have it. Total distance round trip was 643 miles and my overall average and I did refuel three times in all, figured out to 17.65 miles per US gallon. My best fuel mileage section refuel within all of this figured out to 18.46 and these are all hand calculated figures. I find if anything that the trucks computer can be over optimistic, sometimes its pretty close but other times its stretching it. On paper persay in theory the truck would have just about made it on fumes for that whole drive without refueling once.    Which made me think of the topic thread of the wonder if these trucks could do 20 mpg and that is a good question, certainly would have to be on an easy going flat highway, no head wind, the right temperature, not packing around a bunch of dead weight and puttering along even slower than I was I would suspect and going steady and not stopping to smell the flowers or take a piss !. It probably is possible but not without effort to attain that with the wind resistance and weight of these trucks. Of course on my drive most people are passing me if they have the power as per loaded highway tractors, never mind a lot of speedy vehicles but the speed limit is 68 and most are at or well over that.
