I work for that dealer. So as long as you provide the part number to them. The Yazaki terminal is in TRAY 9 by the way. Not all dealers keep the terminal trays these days

Nice work!

 

Good to see another person joining the crew of people willing to build harnesses to retrofit these trucks.

Always figured they were a waste of money. Won't order without it now.

i use mine a lot. it only takes about 3 minutes to get too hot to hold, so i turn it off after that.   its funny how awesome the steering wheel warmer is and how terrible the seat warmers are.

I never thought I'd need a heated steering but now that I have one I would not want to live without it! Truly awesome in Alaskan winters..

This is great information and exactly what I have been looking for to get mine up and running after the clock spring and wheel install. I believe I found the terminal for the fuse block. Please see the link and let me know your thoughts.

How can you have it added to your build sheet?

You have to provide GM part numbers and an invoice of the sale of those parts to you. At most dealerships they have a warranty administrator who is the person who adds RPO's to vehicle build sheets. These RPO's will appear in the bottom section of the vehicle build when it prints out at the dealer. They use the part number of your add on and pick the closest labor operation for the add on. It is submitted to GM and it is then added to the build. Therefore it's now warrantable. I've done this on previous builds I've had. Plus, my fiancé is a warranty administrator, so that kind of helps. Even if you got to the parts dept, they'll have the amended part number for the change. Only hiccup will be, you have to have a repair order showing it was installed at the dealership. Without this, it can't be added. So, start making friends at the dealers!!!

Had no idea this could be done. Can this also be done to the DL3 Mirrors and Auto Dim Rear View? I would understand them not being able to do the DL3 Mirrors since the method of having them functioning is not a GM supported method. Also, I have upgraded front/rear lights to Factory LED (with inline resistors on a custom made harness). Would they even consider this? Just thinking out loud here if/when it came time to sell it/trade it and have these extra options that could be considered in the overall value of the truck.

Did you have the crash avoidance button before? Wondering if that wheel will work even if you don't have the avoidance sensors.

Value of the truck won't change because the trim model doesn't change. The truck will always be a LT without any of your addons as far as the sales department goes, but yes. The components of your DL3 upgrade can't be warrantable. Like I said, you need to have a paper trail of the install and this needs to be on an official repair order from a dealership with the warranty labor operation attached to the job. Each add on requires its own separate job line on the repair order since it will be a warranty accessory add on.

Just forget the tail lights, that more than likely won't work. The headlights are just plug and play aren't they?

I didn't have any of that stuff. It's separate circuits. It works just fine

Makes sense. I can't chase this then :)

 

As for the headlights and taillights, headlights plugged right into existing harnesses but needed resistors to correct hyperflash. For tail lights, they needed a new harness that plugs into the the lamp itself. But it needed resistors as well.

So let me make sure I understand. Sorry for my lack of intelligence on wiring. I need the terminal, this "harness" and then the wire to the wheel and the clock spring. And then it is plug and play.

1. Steering wheel

2. Clock spring

3. Wire with terminal ends to the fuse block X2 connector pin 37 and to the X201 connector, pin 41.

 

I supplied pictures of almost everything earlier in the thread. Did you read any of it?

      Correct way to service 2024 l8t allison trans?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Thanks for that, yes just because I could I measured what came out just to give me some guidance although I already knew to expect it to take at least 9.5 to just throwing in the whole 10 quarts off the shot and doing a one and done heat cycle to drop out the excess to get to the proper level. I don't recall exactly now what I measured that came out but was less than I put back in, I knew I spilled some on the garage floor but the main part was that I was thrilled in the discovery I did not have to touch my exhaust to flex it down. The gasket manipulating is a pain of course to create that clearance to take the pan out and put back in but its all very doable if one is careful and not forcing the gasket to flex too much. From the quote I got at a transmission shop of 900.00 here in Canada ( never asked at the dealer what they charge ) I saved 700.00 doing it myself after paying for the supplies so that to me paid very good wages !, and I knew what fluid was put in and that I had changed the filter and that the level is correct without any doubts.

      first oil change - 2026 2500HD gas

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Typically its said and I agree so far that the engine oil drain plug oring is not required to be changed out unless you see some damage happening to the oring as apparently the oring lasts well. The dealer I have been getting a few parts from never even stocked the oring but instead stocked the whole drain plug that comes with a new oring which for the dealer is easier because they just throw in a new drain plug if there was any question about damage on it as well and charge the customer accordingly but again only if it is needed.    Also a hint about the drain plug oring to help it last vs a risk of causing damage to it, after its been removed and wiped off or washed off ( that is a whole other topic about some solvents damaging orings because some solvent types do ) to make sure to relube the oring with a bit of new oil so that it won't "grip" on the sealing surface of the pan and needlessly stress out the oring. Its no different than putting some oil on the sealing ring of the engine oil filter. So I just grabbed a new drain plug to have on hand although more recently bought just the oring as well but as its special it costs half the price of the drain plug ... !   Since you mentioned the hate to be empty handed theme, I am not sure what you have in the way of filter removal tools as I like using the exact sized for the filter steel 1" wide band with side to side swivel handle filter removal tool, and it can be used to snug up the filter without risk of damaging a filter as well ( its probably a lisle brand I have ). The drain plug hex size is 15mm and I always like using a 6 point socket if I have a choice and with this truck I've been using just a 3/8 ratchet that has a fairly long handle. Do you have a funnel that will work to pour oil in as that is definitely the short coming bastard part about the design with that fill port on the valve cover on such an angle that no normal funnel will even work. There are adapters and things on the market that will set into or screw into that fill port, I didn't want to deal with US shipping as that is all I was seeing at the time so caved and bought a Lisle brand multi vehicle fit adapter funnel kit and it really works well but there are much less expensive adapters out there that work in conjunction with an off the shelf funnel that would do the job also. Now that I have it, I like how it works and works so slick with the shape of the Amsoil 1 quart containers I have now switched over to. Whatever you do, have a funnel system of some sort as you will be swearing if you dropped the oil and then realize you have nothing to properly pour new oil in without spilling it all over the engine !.     Other comments, quite a bit of oil flows out down the filter when its cracked loose due to the housing above the filter so let it dribble down the filter until it slacks off flow and then remove the filter to create less possible mess. It seems these engines can sit for quite a while and drip and if you have time let it sit there and drip out of the engine as much as it wants. Also a good time to grease the 9 zerks on the front end, that's my typical practice anyway to grease the suspension and steering each time I change the oil. And remember to reset the oil change minder ( not something I am used to doing with older vehicles and equipment ).
