Hi, Just purchased a 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500. I have the 8" mylink radio/navagation. I understand that the chime sound comes from the radio speakers. My question is does the radio need to be powered up for the door chime to work. If I open the drivers door and put the key in the ignitian the chime does not sound. If I turn the key to on it will chime. Then when I turn it off and the door is open it will chime. Is there something wrong with my ignitian switch or is this how it works? Thanks for any input on this.

Its how it works. The touchscreen always has some power going to it, even with no key. You can't think of it as "the radio". If you open the door, and put the key in, the chime doesn't sound because it is smart enough to figure you are getting in. If you turn the key on, it chimes, which I figure is part of a "system test" like all the gauges sweeping and whatnot. When you turn the truck off and open the door, it chimes to remind you to take your key like old cars.

1st. post. On my 2015 Silverado, if I open the door and put the key in the ignition but don't turn it on, no chime. If I turn the ignition on without plugging in the seat belt, I get the chime. If I plug in the seat belt and then turn ignition on, no chime. I think it is a reminder to buckle up. Even with the radio turned off mine still chimes. I have the chime volumn turned down as low as it will go and it is still too loud. The rest is like CounterMeasure said.

Is it possible to turn down the volume on the chime ? It's a bit loud for my needs.

There is a setting for the chime volume but even set at the lowest level it is still loud as balls IMO ...

I was able to turn down the alarm volume for park assist, but not the seat belt chime. Government regulations at their best (worst).

There is a PI stating that they know about the chime volume and are investigating.

Good. All they need to do is allow us to turn down the volume more. I don't know if there is a minimum per government. I agree that it can't go to zero but lower would be nice.

How do you adjust the park assist volume? I only have rear assist so maybe thats why I didn't see any adjustment for it.

Mine is Settings > Vehicle > Comfort and Convenience > Chime Volume.

      Did have to make 1 modification because of the WeatherTech rear mud flaps and that was needing 3 longer screws than what came with the install package. 😄

      Picked up the liners yesterday. Installed passenger side WITHOUT any modifications. All mounting holes lined up perfectly. Rain is interfering today with drivers side. Very Happy! Will add pics when finished

      OCI, not when but why?

      As a matter of amusement I’ll leave this conversation with this. Do you beat the government average fuel estimate? Statistics are a guide to me. Not a rule. Someone once said I have to have the last word. If true and possible may be. I’ll blame that on working in a family business.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      That is a fair point, and I agree that trying to log “everything in the truck” would be the wrong direction.   There are a lot of modules and a lot of traffic. If the product became a full-truck datalogger, the amount of data would get huge very quickly, and most owners would never use it.   I think the first useful version would need to be narrow: - powertrain-side event evidence - selected high-value parameters - communication / voltage / reset events - pre/post event window - short report first, raw log only as backup   One distinction I should make is between active OBD/PID polling and passive bus capture. If you are polling PIDs through OBD, then yes: the more parameters you request, the lower the effective sample rate becomes, and you are adding diagnostic traffic to a vehicle that is already busy running itself. With passive CAN capture, the recorder is not asking all the modules for data. It is listening to traffic that is already on the bus. So it does not consume vehicle bus bandwidth in the same way that a scan tool polling hundreds of PIDs would. But your point still applies in a different way.   Even if passive capture does not add bus traffic, the recorder still has limits: - processing rate - storage rate - timestamp accuracy - decoder workload - event filtering - report size - user attention span   So the answer cannot be “log everything and let the user figure it out.” The product would need to store enough raw evidence to be useful, but only decode, graph, and present the important parts around the event.   A practical report should probably show: - what triggered the capture - how much pre/post data was preserved - which selected parameters changed - how those values compared to baseline - whether the same pattern happened before - whether any voltage, reset, bus-off, lost-message, or communication fault occurred - selected graphs around the event - raw data only as supporting evidence   So I agree with you. More data is not automatically better. The real product is the reduction from raw data into a useful event report.
