Yes I searched. Couldn't find.

 

I have a '16 Sierra SLT crew cab w Nav and leather bucket seats. The SLT Premium package has running boards, Bose and the 20" RD5 wheels.

 

How do I know if I have the 6 speaker or the 7 speaker set up? The sales brochure is ambiguous.

 

What's the RMS wattage output rating for the head unit?

 

Thanks

All - Bose systems on the 2015's were 7 speakers (2 door - 2 Dash - 2 Rear - one SUB) not sure about the 16's or if this helps.

I was hoping all the audio experts had been at work and 5pm would unleash an wealth of replies/discussion. Oh well. Maybe they're eating dinner. Thanks bcmking.

Thanks Martha. Everything I read says that. I have buckets, so have a sub somewhere in the console. I'll have to feel around to see if I can locate. Thanks folks.

Naw. No sub in the console.

It's not where you're going to feel it (like a speaker grille). It's more toward the front of the truck. Under the cup holder and deep open area. Turn up the stereo on a song with some bass, and feel the side of the forward portion of the console. You should feel it thumping. If not, someone forgot to put it in.

Been like that for a good while. I have pulled a couple consoles apart in past trucks and the sub faced the firewall. I havent opened up a current gen yet. I suspect it is the same

      Tire psi

      By jgaudet99 · Posted

      Thank you, I'll check that Autel scanner out and see if it will work for me! Ya I can see GM's point of view if they lower the psi set value for someone and the person sell's the truck and the new owner puts the factory tires back on then their could be liability issues cause the psi warning light wasn't coming on when the tires were under inflated for towing their load and then it might be able to be traced back to GM lowering it.

      Tire psi

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I had a similar but different response when I talked to the service manager where I bought my truck in that he said GM corporate won't allow them to lower the placard pressure setting as they would get their hand slapped but that of course they have the ability to make that change. His suggestion was simply go to a tire dealer or third party shop that is willing to reset the pressures lower. However I chose to buy a tpms tool and partly based off of this very forum as it had been proven to work on the 2024 model ( Global B system ) and while I could have paid lots for a full two way diag tool, I didn't want to spend that much and bought the recommended Autel TS 508 and it will reprogram the 2025 model and assume it should do the 2026 as well. However the tool is rather proprietary to reprogramming Autel tpms sensors so that is a function I will never use, where as a real two way scanner would have many uses but also have yearly subscriptions etc where this 508 is free updates for as long as they put updates out for the unit. In any event it worked to lower the placard pressures and I often use it to adjust my actual tire pressures although will check with a mechanical gauge as well sometimes just to make sure that tires tpms sensor isn't lying to me.    My suggestion is either buy a tool that you know will work to adjust the system or start out by getting the tire shop you bought your tires from to reset your truck and if after that you still want a unit to do it yourself, get one at that point.

      Here is an image of a quick Google search about these tires on my truck and it's exactly same psi recommendation the Toyo tires company gave me!    I'm not looking for anyone else recommended psi or anything, I'm just looking to see if anyone knew a way to get rid of the factory low psi warning light, because I'm not running high psi and ruining my tires when I'm not towing!

      Open the driver's door jamb.  What do the cold tire PSI ratings on the tire placard show?   I'm not saying to run it to those numbers, but I would like to know what it says.
