I believe the airbag wiring is different between the 1500 vs 2500/3500 as well. Seems one has 1 plug vs other has 2.

That is correct.  The wiring for the airbag is on the clock spring though.  Does not affect what steering wheel you use.  You can get a 2500 wheel and just put the dampener from the 1500 wheel to the 2500 wheel.

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..

Ah, true, forgot it was just the clockspring to airbag. I remember that now when I was looking I was finding way more deals on wheels on ebay for 1500 trucks than 2500 and thought the same thing but held out and finally found a good deal on a 2500 wheel so didn't mess with that. When all said and done after buying a new wheel and clockspring and selling my old ones I was out of pocket under $100 for the heated wheel upgrade. Definitely a worthwhile upgrade

Yes the yellow rubber pieces hold on the dampener.  So the one on the left has the dampener on it.  Not sure what year of truck you have, but the steering wheel with heat without crash assist for a 2018 is 84353110.  

 

Also FYI -- there are different part numbers for the black vs. cocoa wheel ...

Thanks for all the info guys. The cocoa wheels for our truck, that are in good shape, are kinda scarce on eBay. That’s why I started looking at the 2500/3500 ones.

Hey what’s up man, I’ve been wanting to upgrade my seats on a SLE with cloth seats and no heating capability. I want to install the seats from a Denali with heated and cooled seats. I’ve been doing a lot of research but I still can’t figure out if it will work or not. I saw that you’ve been working on this and I was just wondering if you were able to figure it out?

that's really a different topic all together.. (I would think your inquiry will see more traffic if you start a new thread)..

I was about to start installing my heated steering wheel on my 2018 GMC 1500 Sierra, when I said I'm going to test to make sure I had power at the connection.  Easiest way seemed to hook up the clock spring connection then test it the connector on the clock spring.  When I went to connect the clock spring (84186645), it didn't seem to fit.  Guess GM had some left over older harnesses they put in the 2018s.  Looks like I'll be ordering a 14-17 clock spring (23381964).  For those with 2018's might be worth while to check your truck wiring harness side connector before ordering the clock spring.

Hi All

 

very new to the forum, love all the info about this heated steering wheel upgrade which i'm going to do on my 2016 silverado lt....i actually had the wheel installed today and it doesn't work.  no surprise after reading this forum lol.  i have a question about the clockspring though.  23381964, if you buy a wheel today that has no heat, it takes this spring, if you buy a wheel that has heat, it takes this spring.  what spring part # is in my truck from the dealer?  is there a way to figure this out?  i guess i'm curious to know if i absolutely need this new spring.  is this 23381964 spring just the replacment of literally all other springs??

@Fullthrottletwo,

 

I used this clockspring:  https://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Airbag-Air-Bag-Clock-Spring-for-Chevrolet-Silverado-Replace-OE-23381964/292114650884?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

 

and this steering wheel:  https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemVersion&item=183591799954&view=all&tid=1908451851008

 

The wheel I used is the part# for a 2500. My 1500 had a weight attached to the old wheel that needed to be swapped over to the new 2500 wheel, took about a minute to do. The weight is the only difference.

 

The orange piece on the clockspring holds the spring in place. do not remove it until you install the clockspring. If you already pulled it off then use tape or caution to prevent the spring from moving around too much.

 

I have an IO3 system so my wheel doesn't light up but the cruise control and heat does work. I got worried when my wheel didn't light up but a member here reminded me that there's an extra wire that needs to be run for it. Another member mentions that if you make your own harness do not oversize the wire or else it will short cycle the heating functions. I can confirm this as I used 14g wire from the RAP for power and ground. I changed it to 22g, which is scarring me, and the heat function works a lot better.

 

I don't have a wire gauge tool and I can't see any wire markings on my clockspring. Can anyone confirm the wire size coming from the left dash fuse box to the connector on the clock spring, the purple wire with white strip?

 

I've read Pgamboa as pagoda too, LOL! He and several other members deserve a big thanks for figuring this stuff out for the rest of us. Thank you!

 

 

 

What wire needs to be added to enable the lights on the wheel?

 

Necro bump.

Does anyone know if you can use the steering wheel with adaptive cruise and heat? Obviously I don’t have either but want the headed wheel and can’t find the wheel with heat only. I also can’t find an OEM clock spring that is the right PN has anyone used an aftermarket one and had good luck?

Is clock spring 23381964 and 23381963 the same? 

 

 

 

 

Seeing they are two different part #s...do you think they are the same?

 

Because they are not.  64 is with heated steering wheel, 63 is without heated steering wheel.

      Still looks like a rivet to me in the pics, I don't see a nut and none of the pics show the head of the screw. But if you says so.....

      Tire psi

      By jgaudet99 · Posted

      Thanks for all the help so far!   I did try right from 2026 right down to 2021, and only from 2023 down lets me select the option for tire psi change, but I get the vehicle not supported error!   I'll definitely try it under Chevrolet after work today, and I'll get the sensor number from gm for my truck tire sensors. And I'll let you know if it works for me under Chevrolet!   And if that doesn't work, I'm going to guess that what @Atlas said about maybe I have a different body control module could be true!

      2010 Avalanche 5.3 not running correctly after engine swap.

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      From where I'm sitting this sounds like a compatibility problem. I'm assuming the 2007 was a 900-series truck, and not an 800-series (they were sold side-by-side in dealerships that model year), since it starts and runs.   This is why I HATE post-2006 vehicles. Everything becomes a huge problem when you try to keep the thing running for longer than the manufacturer has designed it to.    I can't remember when Global-A architecture started - either '10 or '11. For your sake, you had better hope it's '11, or you're going to be spending some BIG money to correct this cluster-eff. That's something you need to find out before doing anything else. You may have several computers bricked ... but the fact that it runs tells me you MIGHT be ok here.     EDIT: Just did a quick refresher. You're screwed. This is Global-A. The 2 systems are NOT compatible in the slightest. Once you get the correct engine in there that IS compatible, you're going to need to see how many computers are locked. Absolute NIGHTMARE to straighten out, too. Your buddy might be better off cutting his losses and finding something else.   Welcome to post-2006 vehicle electronics. This is why I quit the industry, and drive nothing built after 1994. This stuff takes all the fun out of wrenching!

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      True, hard to say what differences there may or may not be between Chev and GM as well as a production year or mid year part change either.    I just found it odd that under the Sierra choice on the Autel that many of the last few years of production year did not include the choice of changing the tire pressure but if that is an Autel thing or a GM thing as to why the choices were not there. Knowing what tpms sensors are on the truck should give some guidance into which choices on the tool even make sense to try as I wouldn't give up just yet with the tool but I guess he will see what if anything he comes up with if he finds out a bit more info and tries a few more things on the Autel.
