Do you still have the part number for this? This is how I was wanting to approach this too. Just run the four wires to a relay panel, then I can wire the relays to my devices.

 

The Attached image has the GM Part Number: 13575783. I honestly do not remember the exact cost of the them , but it was worth it to me so that I did not need to tear into my new switch. I hooked the wires up to the Negative of an automotive relay and they work great! Let me know if you need anything else.

and here is how it looks on the factory harness side. Make sure you look at the sheet that is posted earlier in this forum as it tells you which pin is Aux 1 , Aux 2 .. and so on.

I see 5 wires in the package, is that correct? Awesome information, exactly what I needed.

There's many different switch panels. But be aware the only ones you can hook a relay up to have the latch switches.

The momentary switches will only be used for small voltage actions controlled by the BCM.

These are momentary (the same kind the remote your tv uses) very low amp. . 6691d94bf5f83064c0d55d13983acd11.jpg

So just to clarify this post the top type switch is capable of switching a standard relay. The bottom type must utilize the "latching relay" mentioned in the last few posts. I am assuming the actual 4 auxiliary switch has the switches like the top photo and the ones such as the 7 switch with exhaust brakes have the bottom photo type.

No only 4 wires are in there.

Did you have to buy all 4 individually? I ordered 2 from my dealer (thinking I would get 4 in a package) and only got 2 single wires. I need to make sure they didn't rip me off. $9.54 ea is a bit steep for single wires!! I can find them $6.04 online with $12 shipping(ouch)

Here are some pictures of the modified buttons. I had to remove all the black and white, then respray the white because you couldn't see the icon in the daylight. I am pretty happy with the way they turned out, I think I can do better though. post-153411-0-97064400-1453995226_thumb.jpegpost-153411-0-72529300-1453995237_thumb.jpeg

How do you connect your wiring harness to the garage door openers to work as the switch for the LED bar?

 

You connect the wiring harness like you would normally do. When your done, program your homelink with the remote it comes with. Just like your programming a garage door opener. To be honest, Id rather have a switch hard wired. While driving I have to press the button a few times before the lightbar turns on.

That looks pretty good. So you used a white paint behind the vinyl? Was it a translucent paint or just normal spray paint? I had thought about doing a white vinyl behind the black and layering them. I was worried about the appearance at night, but I think you solved that issue.

I just used normal spray paint. The coats could have been a little bit lighter but I wanted to make sure they were even. I sprayed about 3 coats then sanded it flat with 800 grit. They are slightly darker at night but it is barely noticeable. I didn't test the white vinyl, probably should have but I think it would have been to dark.

    • Are we talking about the same thing, though? The 7 versus 3 wear metals was from Lakespeed's 3.0-specific oil brand comparison test between AcDelco oil and Mobil ESP. The filter remains a constant so whatever excess particles the AcDelco oil is producing aren't being filtered out.   I'm assuming there's a parallel comparison to be made; IF the filter can filter down those particles, engine life increases, and your graph makes the case that a better filter (lower micron rating) can increase engine life. Introducing fewer particles AND filtering those particles with higher efficiency is the best of all worlds. Good oil, good filter.   Where we may disagree is the "baseline relative engine life". I'm more apt to believe the base engine life value is 200k+ on very average oil and filters, "bulk oil of unknown brand and white-label generic fleet-grade filter, Jiffy Lube"   Going from a 10 micron filter to a 5 micron filter should boost a base 200k to 275k in a vacuum as a single factor alone.   Here's the whatabout: How does regularly changing the oil and filter ahead of recommended schedule influence baseline engine life? Most people aren't going to science the heck out of this stuff or ask about Micron ratings, HTHS, or wear comparison tests at Jiffy Lube. Most of the Jiffy lube techs would say they need to call their tech support line to even try to get an answer.   --   Because we love anecdotes here, when I was fishing for 4.3 parts at a local yard this weekend, ALL of the 4.3 vehicles had well over 200k. I love looking at odometers of junked vehicles. How far did THIS go before landing at the crusher? The ones that still had engines weren't seized. None of them were vehicles I'd consider were Amsoil queens, in fact most of them had some kind of service cling-sticker in the corner of the windshield indicating it probably had very average maintenance services. Even the fresh parts rigs- I'm not sure taking an S/T series to 400k has much value considering the running value of those vehicles was probably somewhere around $1,000. 25+ years is a good run on time alone.   The intake manifold I salvaged had clean and bright pool areas. As expected, I found the fuel lines in the manifold rubbed through, just like mine. I'm guessing the lines on that donor truck started leaking, the truck started running rough, and its owner said that's enough I'm unwilling or can't take it out of service for several days, or spend $1000+ to repair it at a shop, it's simply time for a newer more reliable vehicle (or, more than likely, this is the 2nd, 3rd time this has happened in the truck's lifetime). While I don't count on my Blazer for reliability, the thought of giving it away for parts at certain points during my adventure, and being mentally free from its needs has has crossed my mind. I'd be losing $1500 or so, but I can only make more money; not time.
