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.

      But Grumpy I did show several subdivisions that had homes starting in the 170K range. If you bought a Townhouse or Condo you could go cheaper. Same with a car 3000 dollars in the 70s translates to around 20K today. There are several models at that price. You actually get more for the money. In the 70s I drove a 3000$ car bought a 28K home and made 4.50 per hour. Thank goodness for overtime. Today I could buy a 170K house drive a 20K car and make 25 dollars an hour operating the same machine today. The difference the house, car, machine would be better and have AC. And I wouldn’t be taxed on overtime. And statistically your wife works too. Easing the burden. I thought we agreed to disagree. I brought receipts earlier, showing examples. I think you’re more stubborn than me. I was done with this debate.

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.
