So I just sent them a email. Come to find out, they are only open on the weekends, and will not respond to anything not sent during the hours of open operation. The next thing I noticed was their location. They are in my state, a couple hours away. They are near a race track that we go to, plus a buddy of mine lives near by. I will have him look into it while I am in Germany for the next three weeks. I'll post up what we come up with...

 

**WAMS IS CLOSED DURING THE WEEK!!!!**

 

 

Now that we have your attention! Due to the amount of correspondence being sent during non business hours (as well as spam) if you contact us outside of the business hours posted on our site (Sat/Sun 10AM-4PM Eastern) you will likely NOT receive a reply. There unfortunately just aren't enough hours in the day to sift through 1000+ emails a week and make sure all of our programming is done in a timely fashion. The website will still take orders and operate autonomously during the week however.

 

 

 

Please contact us during business hours; thank you!

Well they have done nothing in 2019 to address this. You still can't roll the windows up remotely. 

 

Another feature I'll never use in it's current state.

I use it all the time in the hot weather. If imagine that they don’t put auto up for the same reason they don’t put auto up rear windows, kids.

I remember being a kid and I had my head out the window (we were in the driveway, just got home) and my mother started to roll the windows up and didn’t notice I had my head out. I started to yell and mom noticed lol.

Granted, they could have pressure sensors that if they detected more than normal resistance, they would go back down, like a garage door.

And that's the thing. All of the windows have pressure sensors now. Anything pushes on them they go back down automatically.

No reason why they can't do it.

I hate having to run outside to roll up the windows when a quick summer thunderstorm hits. Would love to do it right from the app or my fob.

I can keep dreaming until 2025 when they figure out how to do it safer than they can today.

I have auto-up in my BMW.  It's a '07 at that.  Will open or close both windows and the sunroof.  If the key fob range wasn't so poor on it, I'd probably use it more. :(

I know MVI & Chris White/GTX.... work together for BCM updates, He can update your BCM to allow auto up, not sure if it works for the rear.

 

 

How did you get this to happen? 2019 Silverado RST Z71, All Star, Convenience 1 package. I can do the roll down with the unlock, but not the roll up. Please explain.

From a computer/logical standpoint it is pretty pointless to lock something if the windows are all the way down right?

 

If someone reaches inside the rolled down (or broken) window to unlock, then open, the door, the horn should honk until you either kill it with the fob's panic button or the vehicle is started. Try it (not sure how long timer relay on power lock buttons takes to disable them... should work by pulling inside handle twice, too).

 

If it doesn't look like rain, I like leaving the windows cracked 1/2 - 3/4 inch when it's hot out, so I would NOT want them to roll up by just pressing the fob's lock button; holding that button down for, say, 3+ seconds and having them roll up would be nice, though.

Duplicate post (stupidly posted using truck's laggy AT&T wifi... thanks for the provider choices, generous motors).

 

WHY CAN'T WE DELETE OUR OWN POSTS???

So now it's 2022 and the fob still won't roll the windows up.  At least let us roll them up with the outside lock button.  Nothing is more irritating than getting out of the truck and discovering a window still down & having to get back in, start!!!!! the truck, & roll the windows all the way up.  DUMB.

I can agree, I have a 1990 BMW 535i and, when I lock the car with the key (I don't have a remote) and hold it, all of the windows roll up and the sunroof closes.
Still, pretty sure it's a liability issue Chevy didn't want to take on.
I did, however, get an AutoSync Dongle, along with BTDiesel customization and made my child lock button act as an all up window switch but, even at that, one still has to open the door and turn on the key to make it work.

    • 2011 GMC, 5.3, 183k miles. OK, ....I don't know, this may open a bucket of discussionworms. Ha. Here's the issue. I've been following GM's "mandate" to use Dexos 1 oil, 5w30 (Castrol). I'm thinking maybe I should consider a High Mileage oil due to 183k miles. Castrol and Mobil 1 both make HM but both do not display the Dexos 1 label. So....since I'm way past warranty does it hurt anything at all to change to the HM oil? Its not "Dexos 1" but I kinda doubt it will hurt a thing. I'd like some input especially if someone has done this. Thanks  
    • It is a company truck. Not under warranty. Both companies I’m involved with usually buy trucks that are discounted when looking. Except what the owners drive. Being retired and minority owner. I don’t drive a company truck. If they have the new GM gas engine it would be in a service truck. 
    • Update!   Had the dealer look at the issue. First tech says no problem?? I said there was no voltage on the brake terminal on the 7 pin connector! He said he did not know what pin I was talking about. So they bring out a seasoned tech and I explain to him. He attaches a VOM and has me push the brake, and sees no voltage!!    Tom, the seasoned guy says lets go back to my service bay and look closer. We discover thru his on line system that the controller is a "smart controller" as it needs to detect a trailer connected before the brake voltage is allowed to the 7 pin connector!!! He also showed me a GM bulletin stating some trailers with LED lights have such low resistance the controller wont recognize them!!! I was thinking WTF, but thanked him for bringing me back into the service bay and explaining this all to me. He also plugged in a trailer simulator and it showed the brake controller was indeed working.   After my dealership visit I hooked up to an older camper with standard 1157 lights and the truck did connect and the electric brakes worked great!    Not to sure what I have to do with the equipment trailer with LED lights, I cant tow it with no brakes.   Why did something so simple for many years have to get so complicated!        
    • Do find out as that would be interesting if they have been using any L8T engines or for that matter have been running any of the Ford gas 7.3 to see how they have been panning out.    I assume your nephews engine replacement was on his dime as the regular warranty would have long past unless he had some form of extended warranty that covered such events. That shows though and may depend on the year of the build that failures are occurring with the valve train well beyond the warranty distance and more than likely so will others have that sneak up on them.  
    • I realize this is an old post and its probably been talked about since then on this forum and I may have mentioned it myself but the Chev multi flex tailgate on the HD trucks are all aluminum so there is that one item that I am aware of on a current GM HD truck that is aluminum but if its the standard tailgate then its still a steel unit as far as I am aware to current 2026 model year.
