So your problem is only with the clearence and reverse lights, not powerfold then? Sorry if I read your post incorrectly.

 

That's correct.

 

I have the amber clearance lights wired as blinkers for now, but I would like them to work as clearance lights as they are intended to be use.

 

Everything I've read says I just need to swap out the door harness with the ones sold by GM (23171564 & 23171567) as well have the memory module flashed with new CALS.

 

The service manager at my local dealer says he has personally performed 2 of the installs without a hitch. The one he is working on now, he can't get the passenger side clearance light to come on. Because of that fact he refuses to work on my truck. Hopefully the other dealers I've left messages with will be willing to dive into this project.

 

If not, I'm going to run my own wires into the doors and hook up the clearance and reverse LEDs.

Here is your problem the Driver Door Harness - 23171564, Pass Door Harness - 23171567, and the "RZY" - 23387133 accessory harness are only designed to be used with the S4O/Chrome/23372181 and S4Z/Black/23372182 Mirror kits Like I am having installed on my truck that are manual fold only, So that leads me to believe they do not have wiring to support power fold Mirrors so even with the harnesses the power fold function would not work and would have to be wired in on your own. So far I have not heard of anyone who has put the power fold mirrors on and got them to be simply plug and play without extra wiring and replacing switches etc. but I may be wrong. also without the kit you don't have an authorization code to allow the dealer to reprogram the BCM to accept the mirrors witch may add another sticking point as GM has locked down on unauthorized dealer programming in these trucks.

You cannot get the power fold mirrors in a kit, only non power fold mirrors are in the kit.

 

Dealership I bought my truck from installed the DQS power fold mirrors, correct harnesses and reprogrammed the BCM. They told me that GM wanted to see proof that everything was purchased from a GM dealer and not from eBay, Amazon or any other non GM dealer.

 

Since everything was thru the dealer (dealership included the DQS mirrors and everything required for the upgrade from DL3 mirrors as part of the deal) I bought the truck from, there was not a problem to do the upgrade.

 

Everything works as if it was installed from factory.

It sounds like after you get those harnesses you should be good to go, I am assuming that the harness you are ordering is the one that would have came in a power fold tow mirror equipped truck form the factory.

Harnesses shouldn't be a big issue. Where I need GM's help is flashing the memory module with new CALS.

 

Hopefully the two dealerships I left messages with will come through. The dealership I purchased the truck and DQS mirrors from wants no part of installing said harnesses and the flashing.

This is exactly what I'm looking for. However the dealership I purchased the truck and the DQS mirrors from wants no part in the install of harnesses and flashing or truck. They are just willing to sell me the harnesses.

 

Hopefully I can find a local dealer that is willing to help me.

I'm done dealing with local dealerships. Most won't touch the project and the one that will wanted 900.00+ for labor.

 

I'm going to run my own wires into the doors this weekend to get the clearance and cargo lights working correctly.

Buckalew for sure said no.

 

I've left messages with service managers at Munday and Lone Star Chevrolet. If either of them are willing to give it a shot I'll be sure to post it here for others in the Houston area.

I just bought a 2015 GMC All Terrain from Beck and Masten and had some aftermarket work done at Cassidy Auto Trim.............that's who does all Beck and Masten Souths work. I would check with these guys.

Installed my mirrors last week. As of right now I only have the power and heat working. I'd like to get the harness so I have the turn signals working.

Got the mirrors installed today. Full functionality! the L.E.D. markers and signals are surprisingly bright at night.

Fantastic! Mine are on the way and I have the same truck as you, built the same month.

Just hard wire it yourself and boom! I hard wired my mirrors because the harness was not out when I bought them

Found them for $505 for the chrome manual fold with authorization code. Win!

 

Do they come in white or chrome only and I would have to get them painted white?

I just removed my factory power folding tow mirrors, including the original door harnesses, and posted them in the for sale section if anyone is interested. They were factory optioned on my truck. Thanks

      I still do oil changes on our 2 vehicles and my motorcycle. I have a robot mower for the yard but can't use it in my backyard because my wonderful dog keeps digging the guide wire up so I have to push mow it. Not much of a walker especially during the summer, just to hot. I will ride my e-bike almost daily which helps to keep my knees and hips loose and helps with my balance. That's my story an I'll stick with it. We have been in the mid to high 90's with a feel like temp of 105 to 109 for the last month with no rain. We finally got some rain which cooled it off but were still stuck with the humdity. I do pace myself and that's why it takes me 2 days to do something that used to take a couple of hours.   Peace

      Transmission Temperature Hitting 220s

      By DustMcGrath · Posted

      @newdude great info, thank you!   So opening the thermal bypass valve early (or all the time) would cause temperature to rise more slowly, but above 194F there would be no difference from normal operation?   It seems like the only practical ways to bring down the peak temperature would be to improve the oil-air heat exchanger in some way or increase fluid capacity?

      side view camera

      By rjgvt · Posted

      I have a trailer lights checker I plugged into the 7 way connector in the bed of my truck that has the 5th wheel/gooseneck hitch. It gave the camera side view with the turn signal on just like having a trailer connected but it disabled the rear bumper sensors. I would rather have the rear sensors working.

      Blazer is all put back together. Another hard-won battle. The 4.3 is not easy to work on in such an archaic and narrow chassis originally designed for an inline 4.   My baffle issue is solved. I returned to the OG junkyard but was ready for a fight. The Blazer I had picked from was stacked on another vehicle so I had no idea how the heck I was going to get myself to working height to pull the front end apart. I had seen an S10 pickup on the ground so I was hoping the part would be the same, AND, I couldn't remember if the S10 still had a front end or not. But I didn't need to worry because it turned out to be my lucky day. The yard had just taken in a '98 Blazer, sitting right up front, on the ground, with room to work around it, and the front end hadn't been hit. The baffle and all the clips were factory perfect. I also scored another good handful of odds/ends and the whole shebang only cost me $20.   Got everything back together and it fired right off, sounds good, runs good. I've got a little coolant drip from a lower water pump bolt (D'OH!!). I did the right thing and snugged it down a little bit, and of course that didn't fix it. Yet again, I will have to soak everything in coolant to drain it down to the water pump, remove the bolt, and attempt to re-seal it. Nothing is easy on this truck. Nothing. But now all the radiator plastics are correct, snug, and fully functional. No more rubbing on the cooling fan. It runs, drives (took it for a 30 mile drive last night), no Check Engine lights, EGR is working, no vacuum leaks. We're getting closer...   The replacement wiper motor arrived yesterday. The tailgate was already disassembled and waiting, so I threw that in. It works! Sort of. Two new issues on the list. While the motor is strong enough and the gears aren't stripped, the wiper is hanging up on the bottom of the rear glass. This is the old style where the lower half folds down like a truck tailgate, and the glass swings up, and they meet in the middle when closed. The glass isn't sitting flush with the tailgate, now that I look at it. No rubber bumpers that I can see for adjusting, so I'll have to look at the hinge adjustment to see if I can correct it. Also, the washer/squirter just dumps fluid underneath the truck. The lines actually run inside on the floor so I'm guessing the tailgate is soaked at the rear trim and the line is disconnected. There's also a drain there....probably for this reason.   The leaky water pump bolt was really disappointing. JUST STOP LEAKING...OMG!!   Replacing the window motor and a rear door speaker are still to do, and then everything will work. I want this to feel like a "good" vehicle worthy of dropping $600 for new tires before I do. That means no leaking first. I hurt, and I'm kind of cranky, so I'll probably take a day of rest and do the water pump again tomorrow.
