Did this option turn out to not work on the diesel trucks?  This answer was in response to 'Jakewake23" asking about getting a cluster for his 2016 diesel on page 8.

 

And thank you again Chris for your time.  If this needs to be moved off the thread please let me know.

Gas clusters won't work in a diesel.  They don't have the circuitry for the glow plug indicator and will throw a code tripping the CEL.

There is one on ebay right now for $276 or best offer. I wanted parts out of it to change my cluster to blue gauges. So I sent him an offer of $100. They countered for $199. Its a 2017 Denali diesel cluster

 

It says BRAND NEW.Never installed in a vehicle. But no box and there is scratches on the face.

Thank you sir. Looks like I will be going with the proper Denali cluster and doing the blue LED mod to it. 

 

Sorry Chris @ WAMS for dragging this out on the thread. I’ll email in on Thursday with my VIN to get proper Diesel cluster part # for my truck.

The one i posted is for a 17 Denali diesel. This is the back side of that cluster.

Think I might pick this one up as a parts donor. 

 

Thank you

I have a 2015.5 Silverado I want to do this mod to, and after reading through this thread I see the tahoe cluster won’t work for my year, so if I pick up a Denali cluster like you stated for yours, how do you plan on changing the led’s to Blue?

Here you go, made a "how to" on what I went through to accomplish this setup.

 

 

If you look on page 36 you will see where a gentleman has already done this and made another thread showing how he did it.

Search Denali hybrid cluster. All the info is there. I just litterally went through that thread.

 

RWaddell this is the ebay info for you.

Would a 2015 Yukon Cluster work on a 2015.5 duramax silverado? It looks like the Denali trucks have red on them even with the LED’s off, whereas the Yukon is all white when it’s not lit, which looks better to me. I need to figure out how to get a 2015.5 ltz duramax silverado to have this sick display cluster, anyone have any ideas?

I think i've said it here but it bears repeating: There is about a 90% chance if you buy a cluster on ebay marked as New its in fact used. I'm getting units that are VERY obviously physically used in (before we even verify programming on them) that people are being sold as new; FYI. 

Yes, i was one of those people. The seller RollingAutomotive on eBay sold me a cluster as new. When I received it I sent it straight to Chris without even looking at it. Chris sent me some pictures and it did in fact have miles on it.  I’ve contacted the seller regarding this and will see what they respond with.

Yeah. Probably tell you to send it back at your expense..  if so, yell them it was false advertising and its gonna cost you $100 more for programming. If anything, tell them you want $100 refund to cover the programming from Chris. 

 

Side note, ive seen many diesel clusters on ebay yesterday. A couple say, new- never installed into a vehicle. As i posted a screenshot of a listing yesterday.

False advertising, yes it sure is. But just to make sure it's clear, whether or not the cluster is brand new or used, it will need programing/re-programing to function properly.

    • My truck is a ¾ ton but my placard also says 80 for the rear tires, I think I might have the upgraded suspension to the 3500 series maybe.   I put my air down to 60 and the light was still on, and there was no way I was putting over 60 psi in the rear empty and not towing because I knew the actual number Toyo gave me and I didn't wanna ruin the center of my tires!   And you actually can change it in the settings from metric or is and it will show kph or mph then when you go into your tire settings it will be either psi or kpa, but it would be nice to just change it directly on the tire psi page 
    • Common Sense Assembly   Your driveline is forgiving of the occasional mistake. It will even often forgive the random serious blunder. But it will not forgive a continuous bad habit.      What? Not everything needs to be a five thousand word essay.       
    • We drove about 15 minute east today to visit a friend and saw a steep increase in price in the same county. About 50 cents a gallon steepper. 
    • Sure about that? A degree wheel and a dial indicator would lower your degree of assurance in that statement. 😉    It why we have offset keys and dialable timing sprockets. Just say'n.... I've built a few and have never seen one "On the money". 
    • I will admit I haven't experimented much with pressure drops beyond the numbers I put in and part of that is that the numbers I used are fairly low and then found out it would trigger regardless at that 35 psi. Having said that I had tried before had changed the placard pressures and being that I have a 1 ton set to 80 on the placard for the rear I believe it triggered close to 60, the front I don't recall now for sure but thought maybe it could get close to 45 from that factory 60 placard pressure. So I never did figure out if it was a number of psi from placard pressure to the alarm or a percentage of the total placard number as some figured it was like a 25% drop from placard pressure would trigger it. So as to try and answer your question, I believe I set the placard pressure on the front to 47 or so and while I run the front tires at 40, they have dipped below that some if its colder and I haven't put "winter air" in yet and never once have had the front alarm go off. I would say that the answer your looking for is no, that if you set your placard pressure to 45, you have a certain amount of room to drop below that pressure before the alarm will go off.    The pressures you decide to run in your truck, that ends up being what makes sense to you based on what your carrying in your truck or if towing, then have to bump them back up to something that will carry the load in the rear and the fronts typically left at the same pressure. It all comes down to that chart I put the link to and using an accurate roadside scale to be your guide, both unloaded and then loaded to know your minimum safe pressures.    I just wish GM would allow a person to change the readings for the tire pressures to the English system of pounds as I have to look at that goofy metric reading that will never ever jive in my head and will go over and change it just to figure out what they are if need be and then change it back.
