Is this fuse/wire box located under the hood or somewhere on the driver side?

On the drivers side inside the truck. Look under the steering wheel down by where the latch is for popping the hood

Okay so I was inspired by 2 threads here, one being the fog lights on with high beams, which I did and love. The other is a thread about putting a switch in the bed by the tailgate to turn on the car

Hello,   Good idea, but I took your step little different. I have the puddle light and I tapped into that.     This way, when vehicle is in "run" position, puddle lights and the cargo lights w

Thanks. I have a 2016 and wasn't sure if it was the same. Going to head out now, just have to find the diodes.

That was super easy. Thanks for the reply. Now I need to read the thread about fogs always on when headlights come on.

Read all the pages on this thread and I am going to perform this mod but I just wanted to double check with you all. I have a 2016 Sierra that has reverse LEDs on the tow mirrors. Question: is the wiring the same for my truck and will all the cargo lights and the reverse LEDs in the mirrors turn on when I hit the unlock on the FOB? Thanks

See my profile pic, I have the same mirrors. To your question, yes the wiring is the same for all. And yes, like the last 13 pages have said, in the dark, your mirror reverse lights, rear cargo lights and tail light reverse lights will illuminate when you press the unlock button on the remote AND when you press the cargo light on the center stack all the same lights will illuminate.

 

It'll take you longer to go and buy the diode than it will to install it. Neat mod!

Just finished installing a jumper wire instead of a diode. What a fantastic mod. It works great. Now on to the fog light mod.

Question ...

 

If i do the cargo light mod, then reverse it as well. Is that going to create any issues with the BCM shorting out or anything?

 

Currently just have the cargo one we are all doing.

If you have 2 left (fog and bed light mod), I would mind them. I'll pay for your shipping.

Does this work on 2016?

 

Anyone perform this on 2016?

 

We're the cable colors/locations different?

 

And issues with the BCM or electrical?

      Rattle in the rear!

      By GN2018 · Posted

      I've tried everything and still have the rattle.  My next thing to eliminate is the seatbelt connection on the real pillar.  The cover seems loose and could be the source.  I found one of my grandsons video games in the back seat rest compartment   and had a glimmer of joy, but that wasn't it.  I'll keep trying.

      I'm tangentially aware of what Harley used to be, back in my riding days, although I was into Italian sport bikes. Ducati seems to have gone the other way; still very expensive, but they've made a large subset of their bikes a lot more reliable and accessible, and they've diversified their lineup to include other riding sports too. IMO, a good example of where greed and growth might have also been beneficial to the consumer.   Although GM is charging a relative premium for its most popular pickups, I find that there are some excellent value propositions in its lineup as well.   The Colorado still strikes me as the most attractive midsize on the market, and also the most reasonably priced given capability and features. There's a part of me that wishes I would have bought one instead of my Silverado.   The Equinox ...I must be getting old. The ICE equinox is a great design IMO. Probably because it reminds me visually of an actual SUV aka an S Blazer. Underneath it's nothing even remotely close, but it LOOKS good. It's got all the modern features plus some at a very reasonable price. If I had to run out and buy myself a daily commuter to do everything except tow, an Equinox would be on my list.   It does bug me that mid-tier 1500's reach into the 50-60k range, and Tahoes and Burbs are even more expensive. Less than 10 years ago, dealers were sitting on rows of Tahoe LS and LT's for low 40's. You could even still find Tahoes with a front bench, still!

      Big oil is raking in billions from the Iran war. Can it avoid Trump’s fury?   Remember I said Big Oil is 'Vertically Integrated"?   Even as they no longer own the majority of the "Pump" they still own the "Well". Crude price upward pressure does not translate into that same pressure on production. Pumping cost remain unaffected and the gap is pure profit. Even after subtraction of a minor, comparatively, lower amount from supposed, but not always, realized refining volume. Consumers hate war, Big Oil, not so much.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      We live in a world where the average person expects more. People say wages and our needs are farther apart. My first new home had 3 bedrooms and one bedroom. My first car and truck had what would be considered a stripped or work vehicle. In my neighborhood back then there were more homes like that and cars too. Middle managers and second home buyers worked their way up to the fancy houses and cars. Car loans were 3 years. GM had different models of cars for different income levels. The cars were pretty much the same size if you wanted a big vehicle. The nameplate designated the opulence. Chevy, Pontiac, Buick, Oldsmobile and Cadillac.  To be fair some of the cost is government mandated. We can’t blame them for giving us what people will pay for. Careful advertising steering people towards more profitable SUVs and trucks. As I learned recently a minivan is a cheaper more efficient form of transportation. Certainly easier to live with. Somebody realized the profit margin wasn’t as big and gave it a soccer mom label. So it lost its coolness. They’re making it the masses are buying it. You hit your hand with a hammer you can’t blame the hammer.
