My apple CarPlay USB ports in my center console stopped working. I get a message: to use this gray, connect supported device to USB.  My ports have been working. I have tried everything but change the ports out.

The center console port in my 16 stopped working. Ordered a new one, swapped it out and never had a problem again.   It is a pretty easy task, ordered one from GMPartsdirect.com.

Everything else worked fine, just the USB in the center console was failing.

2014 SLE. My USB from center console only charges my Iphone. It will not play the content and has been this way a while. I just use the bluetooth hook up. Radio has always been glitchy in it.

So, after reading a few posts it seems I'm S.O.L. on my center console USB ports working again. I have 2018 Silverado & they just quit working this morning when I stopped at the store. Any updates how to solve this problem?

Good morning, i have an 18 Silverado with a 5.3 i bought recently and after getting home noticed the USB ports nor the cigarette lighter plug work in the arm rest. The one below the Radio does work. I've checked the fuse and it's good. I know you changed your usb out but I wanted to ask if your cig. plug wasn't working either

I have a 2021 GMC Sienna and the USB ports that are under the middle console and the two in the back of the console are not working.. Has anyone found the reason why? Or even had this same problem? Thanks

Those are largely controlled by the BCM behind the glove box.
Check the black and blue connectors - unplug and re-seat.
Maybe helps?

      MPG at 600 miles

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
