yeah the dollars and cents on this are nuts. I'm going out on a limb assuming that the wiring is there at the door post as everyone on this forum has said that any of the later build 2015's have the cross dash harness that contains the needed circuitry (mine has a build date of sept 2015)

i have the print out my parts guy gave me and there shows 4 possible passenger harnesses for that specific trucks vin, so I'm working at decoding the option codes to see which seems to be the right fit. i imagine the price is around the same as the driver side.

like you said i'd hate to waste the money to find out they don't work. Possible plug and play sounds amazing , but to roll the dice on 400$.... well.... I don't gamble because i don't win! that being said if nobody has come across this harness, or had any success with it , i'll stick with the repining my current one for the puddle lamps and turn signals to work , and save the auto dim mirror for another project.

If you could only look at the harness and verify if Pins 2, 3 and 41 are loaded on the X500 Connector and Pins 1, 5, and 13 on the X510 Connector. Then you'll be good to go!

 

We would also need the passenger side part # like Alexantics said.

 

Also, if you are going to repin harness, you might as well repin for autodim while you're at it. Unwrap the harness one time, load it up, and rewrap.

id love to be able to get a look at those harnesses . I'm going to go back this weekend and talk to my sales gal and see if shed let me pop the window switch trim bezels at least so i can see the X510.

as a fail safe would the 898 page bodybuilder electrical not show what i need to see (i.e.. part number of harness in this truck , and reference the diagram to see what is pinned in that harness) i know ideally seeing it on the physical harness is best.

as far as the passenger harness I'm stumped on the parts lists as there is 2 that show the exact same option codes with different part numbers ( 23171550 and 23342721)

 

I agree though with you saying if I'm going to re pin my DL8 harness , to just add the wires for the auto dim while I'm in there.

 

im hoping to have all my parts here soon ( switch was US stock only so I'm 7-10 business days away still) we still have stellar weather for this time of year here , and id love to do this before the cold comes. most of the winter here I'm between -20 to -40 so i don't want to be screwing with door panels etc in that weather , even with a heated garage.

I can verify that on my 2014 LT I added just the switch and mirrors and the power fold option did work, but my truck is a 14 and not a 16. Could there be a difference? That I cannot verify.

The signals and puddle lights were on the mirrors that I added, and they had to be wired in order to work, but power fold and power adjust and heat did work on the DL3's I added.

 

Perfect, thank you! I have to have the power fold but would love to get the signals to work too. It amazes me that it's cheaper to make and manage multiple sku's than just outfit them with the same sku on all on these harnesses

You'll have to pop the door panel off to access the X510. It is located directly the quarter panel triangular molding. Also, which year Upfitter Manual are you looking at? The X510 connector for the 2016 manual is page 1531. With the other connectors close by.

manual i have is body builders service manual 2015 - X510 connector is on page 854 - but it does not show which harnesses have which pins as it is just the connector end,

 

door panel may be a tough sell to get her to let me remove but its worth a shot - wife has been eyeing up the new malibus maybe I can get her out for a test drive if she lets me explore this truck a bit hahaha

Anyone know the part number for the master control switch w/power fold button for a 4 door truck (2016)?

Holy smokes that was quick, thanks a ton. That seems to be the mirror controls by itself. I was expecting to have to replace the entire unit (windows and all). Will that part fit into the existing housing?

And, I also just finished helping another member today add turn signal and puddle lamps to his DL8 Harness.

I hear ya. I my 13 the signal wires were already in the harness, and I had to run power wires for the power fold. In my 14 I ran 2 wires to each mirror, and tapped into a ground that is already ran to the mirror. It seems that the turn signals has a separate ground wire in the harness so I just joined 2 wires (for the signal ground) on the mirror harness, ran 2 wires for power for the signal and puddle light and I was good to go.

About to buy a set of DL3 mirrors off a 2015. The guy says the door harnesses are included as well. Are there any other pieces/wiring needed, other than the switch, to get the signals/puddles to work? This thread is so massive now the more I read the more I get confused on just what is required

You will be better off using the existing DL8 Harness that is on your truck now. You'll need to add (3) wires to make the Puddle and Signals Work (3rd wire is a ground).

 

One thing to note: Since there is only (1) Ground connection on the X500 connector (Pin 2), you'll have to splice the ground in another slot in the harness. If you unwrap the harness, you'll see where GM does it.

 

Here's what you'll need.

 

Driver Outside Puddle Lamp - Circuit # 5996

(X510 - Pin # 1) -> (X500 - Pin # 3)

 

Ground - Circuit # 1150

(X510 - Pin # 5) -> (X500 - Pin # 2)

 

Driver Left Turn Signal - Circuit # 1314

(X510 - Pin # 13) -> (X500 - Pin # 41)

 

-----------------------------------------------

 

Passenger Outside Puddle Lamp - Circuit # 5996

(X610 - Pin # 1) -> (X600 - Pin # 3)

 

Ground - Circuit # 1250

(X610 - Pin # 5) -> (X600 - Pin # 2)

 

Passenger Right Turn Signal - Circuit # 1315

(X610 - Pin # 13) -> (X600 - Pin # 41)

      The timing marks are ok, that is #1, you can turn it over until they line up and it won't change anything, the crankshaft turns twice for every camshaft revolution, I have always set up SB Chevs as your pic shows using a straight edge

      Someone's been here before.... There is a receipt for a 3-piece timing set, purchased earlier this year.   Is this picture something, or, nothing?   I have the timing cover off and my crank is perfectly TDC and the keyed gear's locating mark is dead on 12 o'clock.   The cam gear locating mark is also at 12 o'clock. Now, I'm not an expert, but all the install guides say the two locating marks should meet and be perfectly aligned when installing a timing set. The mark on the crank should be dead on 12:00 and the cam gear's mark should be dead on 6:00, and both marks should be perfectly vertically aligned.   I believe the timing gear is keyed or has a dowel that ensures it can only be installed on the cam in one position, so I have to believe the cam is out of phase somehow. At the very least, with a triangular bolt pattern, it can only be installed in one of 3 different positions.   Before I pulled the front cover, the truck was running alright, no service engine soon lights except an occasional P0172 / rich condition. Timing -16 timing at idle (should be +16), and total -35% fuel trim, two conditions I haven't been able to figure out.   In related news, my injector tested pretty well, wasn't leaking, but I had it rebuilt anyway, and it's on it's way back to me.         Along with this discovery, the good and bad:   Good: The oil pan seal appears undamaged.   Bad: -The timing cover has been reused, and the positioning dowels have been broken. That could explain some of the leaking. -Some kind of white paste or grease was used to try to seal the oil pan seal and timing cover (since wiped off..). -Then, someone globbed silicone all over the front of the cover and also buried the ckp sensor in it. But, they didn't put any inside the cover or use RTV to try to seal the oil pan seal with the timing cover (good).

      PF63 Oil Filters Going Away?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      The guy that owns K&P filters last I checked in with him has over 300,000 miles on his Dodge base Hemi using his own 35 micron absolute stainless mesh filter from its first oil change.    The GM study I've posted a dozen times shows the relationship in engine life based in multiples of base units, not miles or years. That is the base unit is the number of miles the motor ran using the reference filter efficiency.    The above two paragraphs dismantle anecdotal arguments IF one changes oil often enough to prevent particle formation and the motor is in otherwise good shape. That is not full of silica (no air filter) or suffering a metallurgical issue that is not part of the lubrication discussion. Poor heat treat in example.   Data from UOA's I've reviewed from more than a few engines can show remarkably broad variations in oil cleanliness using the exact same filter over the course of an engines life.     Lastly there is the common sense of it. Wear debris WILL circulate the engine BEFORE it ever sees a filter in route to that filter and WILL harm the pump which NEVER sees filtered oil.    Alpha question then becomes, given the facts, how long do you believe is a reasonable service life from a vehicle you are certain you will not pass down? That is the junk yard will be it's resting place when you're done with it? (the moral issue most don't care about).    Omega question is then how diligent are you prepared to be in general mechanical, air & oil maintenance? Preventing particulates and keeping them sufficiently dilute; preventing the precursors from generation, amalgamation and precipitation.    If I get a good look at the engine bay of a vehicle I have a fair idea of the owners commitment to the inside of the power train. That 30 micron WIX is still more efficient than a sieve.

      It also depends on what criteria someone is using for “best” when talking filters.  Are we going off best efficiency?   Best quality/QC?  Etc. because the two may not mutually exclusive.

      They’re not the same wiz as 10-15 years ago.  QC has fallen pretty hard.  The XP line was never good though in the first place.    https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/wix-filter-rusted-through.386492/post-6991372   https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/i-ve-used-my-last-wix-filter.27299/   https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/looking-for-a-better-replacement-for-wix-51258.403977/   https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/convince-me-in-using-the-purolator-boss.401537/post-7420147   the forums are littered with posts and examples of not great wix filters the last couple years
