Reverse Camera **UPDATE**

Here is a picture of mine this morning. My wife has a 2015 Edge and her camera quality is 10x better than my 2015 Silverado. I've heard some people at the beginning of this thread or some other thread say they swapped out cameras with a new oem one. I might bite the bullet here soon and get an oem 2016 or 17 one off of ebay if I can find a good deal.

Looks good to me

Here is my wife's 2015 edge. She has a small 4 inch screen but it's much clearer. You can't really tell that from the pictures because I think my Pixel camera is doing some smoothing on my truck picture.

Wrong picture? Sure looks like the previous ones posted. Definitely not the Edge dash.

Thanks for noticing that. Just switched the picture.

Have the camera and handle assembly coming.  I did get under the truck and looked at the plugs to try and confirm the same wires back there were present at the HMI.

 

I seemed to read some conflicting info on which plug the camera will plug into.  And I didnt see any labeling or letters around any of the existing plugs.  BUT, I do have the locking tail gate and I followed the wires from the tailgate to the junction so I know where it plugs in now.

 

I assume it is safe to say that the camera will plug into the same plug as the existing locking tailgate handle?????

The camera must have a second plug connected to it on the camera side of the harness to pkug into the power lock for the handle. I went theough this already. My first camera didnt have it so i had to buy one with auto lock

If your camera looks like this and you have powerlock,its the wrong one

I haven’t gotten the camera yet. But, stop scaring me!!!  

 

What is that camera for versus what were you trying to put it on?

 

You remember the correct part number????   With power lock. 

 

I ordered 84062896.

Thats a camera from a 14-15. With no power lock tailgate.  Ihave a 16 that came with powerlock tailgate so i got a camera (since the powerlong and cam wires are in the same harness) i got one with the power lock plug

I edited my post and you missed it. I ordered part number 84062896. GM partsdirect labels this as ‘Sierra, silverado. 6.6 ft box, with remote tailgate.’

 

you know your part number?   The right one.

I can find it but you also need the correct handle with the right unlocking arm

I only see 2 handles for our year trucks (2016). With camera and without. 

 

I ordered 84016231 which is supposed to be with camera.

    • No doubt, I definitely agree with you. However, considering the 6.2 and 3.0 have been catastrophically failing with very little miles, I figured I would put trouble free. I’m at 18,4xx and still not a single issue.  
    • It’s never dry here but it gets hot. My 4 vehicles I keep at home drive an 18 mile loop. One 6 days a week. Two about 3 days each and one once a month. Only one goes on trips about 4 times a year 1000 to 2000 miles each time. One 26 years old gets driven once a month for 22 years. One 14 years old goes 6 days a week. The other two are recent at 2 and 4 years. All are performing normal no extra service other than that would be half of recommended or severe service in the maintenance manual. No extra water or steam out the exhaust or premature plug wear. I would consider an 18 mile loop would be enough. So apparently once a month at 18 miles for 22 years has kept the collector car running well. About 45 minutes a month. 
    • It is working as designed.  NHT and non NHT trucks have the same exact transmission cooling setup.  NHT just gets a larger radiator.     The transmission cooler loop on these is as follows.     -Transmission out goes into an oil to water heat exchanger (item #1 in the first illustration below).  This exchanger has engine coolant opposite the transmission fluid and uses engine coolant to warm and then regulate the transmission fluid temperature when its in the operating window.   - From the cooler it goes to a thermal bypass valve (item #11 in the 2nd illustration below).  If the ATF has not reached the temp to open the bypass (194F), it loops back.   - When it reaches 194F, the thermostat opens and ATF then flows out to the oil to air auxiliary cooler (item #17 in the 2nd illustration) at the front of the truck.  From there it goes back to the transmission.     Your only fix would be to swap for the PPE thermal bypass delete block which will open the loop to the aux cooler all the time.  It will STILL run warm, probably 170-200F, but that's as low as you'll get it as its still flowing through the oil to water exchanger.      
    • Most say the oil temperature needs to above the boiling point of water to rid it of moisture and long enough to dry it. Many think that is about a hour at 212 F or more. Those people have never line dried cloths in a Midwest winter. Leave a pan of water sitting on the counter and eventually it all evaporates. So heat drives the time it takes. Water in oil under 175 F, the Nitration initiation temperature, is a minimum then for temperature and samples I've done that use Karl Fisher method say about a hour (in a healthy well tuned motor) over 175 F will dry it to under 800 ppm. Low enough to not be much of a factor. Motors with weak rings will take longer and the colder the air temperature the longer it takes.   On a cold motor there is also the condensation temperature. Blowby gases that contain moisture are subject to that cold cylinder wall, like sweat on a glass of ice tea. But also subject to the Law of Partial Pressures. Wear studies by GM and the DOD  indicate wear is a real issue below 85 F and a concern to 140 F but doesn't become a minimal factor until about 160 F. You know this intuitively when you see water vapor exit the exhaust pipe until the system gets above the dew point. It isn't magic, it's physics and it fascinates me. I know you didn't ask but....I over share sometimes. 😉    You keep the Camaro's high and tight.  
    • Move further away.   Benefit of living out - none of our cars get short cycled, plenty of warm up time.   Curious how much time/temperature it takes to drive moisture/condensation out of the engine?
