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..

You can go to the dealership and pick up the terminals your self if you need to have that jumper wire like Justin posted on page 11. I used Yazaki 4114411002 ( male spade terminal) and Yazaki 7116411102 ( female terminal) Not bad. It took me just under 2 hours but that was battling the heat outside as well. Fighting the clockspring is a PITA. That yellow plug is fished all the way up and to the side of the dash.

 

It seems as though everything works now, but I'll have to try it again tonight when it cools off. Everything in the truck was super hot. :crackup:

Thank you!  This was the one I couldn't find any reference to and the ones that were listed in the thread showed as incorrect or obsolete.

I find or have a hard time finding Yazaki terminals. For the Fuse Blocks, I was able to find Terminals from Mouser. They are listed as Delphi OCS Terminals. There are two sizes... 1.5 and 2.8.

I found part # 35031567 for the Female 1.5 Terminal and Part # 13849933 for the Female 2.8 Terminal.

There are variants too based on wire gauge size. These two #s seem to work the best.

has anyone tried just replacing the cruise switch assy. for one with the wheel heater switch?

i imagine the clock spring would also need to be changed.

the part# is 23156914 and it seems to be less than $50.

What good would a switch do if there is no heating element in the wheel?

 

After reading through the very long thread, I ordered a new wheel and clock spring today from GMpartsnow.com (Berger Chevrolet).  I have the power pedals, so I'm counting on the existing connector being live.  If it's not, I guess I have to figure out the wire to the fuse box.

 

I've had lots of cars that sat outside, but this is the first one that really seems to need a heated wheel.  It's almost like it's filled with that gell from blue ice.  It just stays cold.

I recommend you go to a place like I did.  I called to verify I was ordering the right parts and sure enough, I got the wheel wrong.  I was off by one digit.  Apparently, there are about 30 different wheels for these trucks.  I found the black one with the right options, but I wanted black with red stitching to match my existing wheel.  They got me the right part number so now I have confidence I ordered the right parts.

I ordered the heated wheel 84222913 black with red stitching, and 23381964 clock spring for heated wheel.

So I finally got underneath the dash on my 2016 LTZ.  I have the connector/harness for the heated steering wheel, but it appears to be dead. It should show 12 V with the engine running correct? Mine shows 0 (unless I'm just not finding a good enough ground to test with). 

 

Having not read through the beginning of this thread, what would I need to make that harness hot?

If your 2-Pin Connector mate under the dash is hot while running, then you’re good to go. I originally thought his was a constant, but it’s a Run/Crank ignition switched source.

There is a larger connector up above the column. It’s an X201 - 42 pin connector. I’ll venture a guess and say you’re missing a pin there. Pin 37 if I recall.

Ok....I had engine running and had no voltage. So I'll look earlier in the thread for these other pins/connectors.  Thx

That’s how I checked mine. No 12v while key on. I had to add the wire to jump from the fuse box to the plug above the brake pedal.

      Gas Prices

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      We drove about 15 minute east today to visit a friend and saw a steep increase in price in the same county. About 50 cents a gallon steepper.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Sure about that? A degree wheel and a dial indicator would lower your degree of assurance in that statement. 😉    It why we have offset keys and dialable timing sprockets. Just say'n.... I've built a few and have never seen one "On the money".

      Tire psi

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I will admit I haven't experimented much with pressure drops beyond the numbers I put in and part of that is that the numbers I used are fairly low and then found out it would trigger regardless at that 35 psi. Having said that I had tried before had changed the placard pressures and being that I have a 1 ton set to 80 on the placard for the rear I believe it triggered close to 60, the front I don't recall now for sure but thought maybe it could get close to 45 from that factory 60 placard pressure. So I never did figure out if it was a number of psi from placard pressure to the alarm or a percentage of the total placard number as some figured it was like a 25% drop from placard pressure would trigger it. So as to try and answer your question, I believe I set the placard pressure on the front to 47 or so and while I run the front tires at 40, they have dipped below that some if its colder and I haven't put "winter air" in yet and never once have had the front alarm go off. I would say that the answer your looking for is no, that if you set your placard pressure to 45, you have a certain amount of room to drop below that pressure before the alarm will go off.    The pressures you decide to run in your truck, that ends up being what makes sense to you based on what your carrying in your truck or if towing, then have to bump them back up to something that will carry the load in the rear and the fronts typically left at the same pressure. It all comes down to that chart I put the link to and using an accurate roadside scale to be your guide, both unloaded and then loaded to know your minimum safe pressures.    I just wish GM would allow a person to change the readings for the tire pressures to the English system of pounds as I have to look at that goofy metric reading that will never ever jive in my head and will go over and change it just to figure out what they are if need be and then change it back.

      No Software Updates - Old Build

      By TrueBlue · Posted

      That part I understand, that the dealer can do it. But I'm not understanding why updates that were available to the truck since it left the factory, or the dealership originally, would not still be available to it without dealer intervention.   I'm thinking along the lines of recalls. They stay available until they are completed, regardless of whether they are in warranty or not, or in the hands of the original owner or not. Why not updates as well, especially since some of those can be safety related also?
