This was on the Duramax forum. I believe it is for a GMT 900. But the principles are likely applicable to a K2. Use this information cautiously. ------------------------------------------------------

OK, After struggling thru the schematics and online mods of past models all evening, I figured it out. This is for a Sierra and should be the same for the Silverado. It involves pushing one Diode in

I know my Camaro with the RS package uses the fog lights as DRL lights. But once your headlights turn on you can't have your dog lights on anymore. Same goes if you flash your high beams.

 

But I bought a plug and play harness that allows you to keep your dogs in all the time. There is no switch to turn them on and off but I guess it's better than nothing. And now they stay on with my headlights and if I put the high beams on as well.

 

Hope this helps and maybe someone else will chime in with there experience. Maybe someone makes a similar harness for our trucks.

The first page goes into that. The 85 pin pin between what is on and what you want to feed to be on will do that.

It is really worth taking the time to read thru the posts. It will help you understand how and why the resistors are placed where they go and how that makes the functions occur that you desire.

First post here, but I've been lurking for a while.

 

I'm a new GMC Sierra owner -- bought a 2015 SLT Crew Cab 4WD two weeks ago and am loving it! I'm coming from a Wrangler Unlimited that I modded heavily so the mod bug obviously has bitten me once again.

 

I'm wanting to do this mod and I'm curious if anyone by chance has any diodes they have still laying around that I could have? I have a 100 pack in my Amazon cart but that's overkill if there unused ones out there.

 

Thanks

In my 2003 Avalanche, this is what I did for the All On High. I also opted to have my running lights come on with my fog lights. Will this work with the 2017 system, if not, what will I need to do to keep everything on when I either flash or turn on my highs, and have the DRL's come on when I turn on my fogs?

 

As a side note, we replace the white DRL lights with Amber so we know who all is from the site. But, our DRL's come on when we put the truck in drive only.

Hizzle3500,

 

Here is the link to what you are looking for. I have spoke to them before about having my remote make the windows go up, pay good attention to their hours of operation, they are very specific about it. I want to do the radio mod and the windows as well...

With the 16's and 17's, there would only be 4 lights on at any one time with the fogs, whether it be low or high.

 

But I know what you're trying to ask.

      Trading 7.3 (Godzilla) for G.M.C gas

      By James Beyer · Posted

      Congratulations Isttype, on your gmc. Really like my 2024 2500hd sle doublecab now with 85,500 miles.  I checked the oil today at 4800 miles since last oil change and barely reading on the stick.  I don't care if GM says it's Acceptable adding a quart every 2000 miles because that is 100% BS, It is not a 1966 Harley Shovelhead! Sounds like it's setting up a future failure like I had with my 1500 6.2l. Other than oil consumption problems, I really like the 6.6l gas and 10 speed is really nice.  Towed a light 4000 pound trailer last week and averaged 14 mpg.  I was pretty impressive that a 7300 pound gas truck did 14mpg towing, Later-

      Long Term Cold Cycle Limited Testing   Back to the 1990's and XOM's million mile test. Since then there have been others and there will be more. Schaeffer's, AMSOIL to name two. Of these Schaeffer's is the stand alone which I will explain in a bit later.    http://papers.sae.org/600190/:   http://papers.sae.org/850215/:   Up to 75% of  engine wear occurs on cold starts. These two links (above) provide the technical reasons for engine wear. In a nut shell, and by a large margin, cylinder wear is what takes out most motors and even with a pre-oiling system that part of the engine is dry enough on cold starts and cold warm up to pierce Stribeck.   So when you put a motor, or a car, on a dyno for a million miles stopping only for oil changes, (yes fuel is uninterrupted) or break down maintenance, you are depriving the test of the most important part of it's wear cycle. Yes a million is then a pretty easy walk even for a mineral oil under those conditions.    How about cleanliness during the long test cycles? Same thing. Varnishes that stick rings and insulate parts are laid down by repetitive 'heat cycles'. It's the cool down the precipitates the varnishes. These long runs also hinder acidic attack caused by cold start richness and less than optimal cold start ring sealing. They hinder water formation and enhance breathing of the crankcase; the petri dish of acid formation, the first step in sludge formation, amalgamation and precipitation. These motors are also monitored and controlled for water and oil temperatures to within the "normal operating range".      https://www.swri.org/sites/default/files/sequence-iiih-test.pdf Note the test sequence in some boutique oils literature for testing, API IIIH, is not the standard used for the ILSAC G7 testing. Does that mean it is irrelevant? No, not as used. As used as a 'visual guide' it makes it's point. The G7 weighted piston deposit minimum is lower.      Back to Schaeffer's. That was a cyclical test of an engine in fleet service and not a dyno mule and if you saw the video it was not mirror clean but wear was low.    There are oils like BioSyn and other 'Renewable" source oils that taught cleanliness and have proven themselves in fleet testing. Havoline an other example.    The newest ILSAC G-7 test prioritize cleanliness, LSPI mitigation and fuel economy OVER WEAR. In comparison Porsche C30 Specification Verses ILSAC G-7 Specification below:      Some will balk that this graph isn't apples to apples and I will challenge that in that this graph represent the SPECIFICATION and not the any One Oil Performance.   It is absolutely possible to minimize wear, maximize cleanliness and mitigate LSPI etc., It just isn't cheap and currently I see none that are not walking toward profit over performance.

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

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I don't think you will need a split, separate product, etc., the OBD port should be able to deliver everything you need. Since your device would be plugged into it all the time, it wouldn't miss anything.    Hardware in this case will be the easiest part of your project - ELM 327 devices will already deliver all the data you need. Reporting/software is where your advantage/marketability is.
