This is covered in this thread 2016 cluster ONLY applicable with a very specific car play retrofit. 

I tried to read through this thread but never 100% have found my answer. I have 2015.5 silverado. In order to get a blue cluster I need to upgrade my HMI and radio module. Do I just need 2016 hardware or do I need specific part #’s? Any help is appreciated!

Ok so whomever sent in a cluster from arizona with quite literally ZERO information as to who it belongs to please contact us ASAP before we send it back to the third party it came from.

 

Sadly due to a HUGE influx of the above scenario beginning next Monday: ANY SHIPMENT THAT DOES NOT HAVE THE ORDER NUMBER WRITTEN ON THE BOX WILL BE RETURNED TO SENDER BY OUR LOGISTICS COMPANY. I'm sorry but we just don't have the time to spend 3-4 hours a week trying to figure out who's order is who's and no believe me its not just you guys it seems everyone in every product line likes to make us guess who wants what done to which parts LOL :)

 

Also a friendly reminder ship in using UPS or Fedex ONLY,  USPS in our area is dreadful at best. 

 

Thank you!

Im very impressed by the work you are doing here @GTPprix!  I just bought a 2018 SLE gmc sierra and I was hoping there was a way to swap the cluster to the red denali one and hopefully my stereo bezel colors later to match. The blue/green is one of the few things I cant stand about this truck. Is it possible to swap a 2016ish cluster into my 2018 with your help? Without losing any functionality of course. 

I also have another completely different request that is audio related I'm hoping you can help with. Please PM me when you have a spare minute!

Why do you need to upgrade hmi and radio?

when I went through this process, this is what I had to purchase to accommodate the desired blue/green cluster...

yes, $1200 plus shipping was spendy, but it enabled me to:

 

  • keep the factory nav - which which work with both the cluster and HUD
  • also - I really wanted CarPlay 
  • AND - I wanted the CarPlay to work with my steering wheel controls

 

Product Quantity Price
2014 - 2016 Chevrolet CarPlay / Android Auto Enabled Factory System
Programming Options - Last 8 of Vehicle's Vin Number: (your vin here)
Please Select CarPlay System Needed ($300.00): I06 CarPlay/Android Auto- WITH Factory NAV
Please Select: I understand that if I'm purchasing the I05 CarPlay for a 2016 Vehicle, MVI will require the old module back as a core. MVI will email a core form to me before the product will ship. If not purchasing for a 2016 vehicle, No core form will be required
Please Select: I understand professional installation is recommended and MVI only allows up to 15 minutes of installation support. As a custom business MVI is not able to provide on demand tech support. Tech support will need to be scheduled via text message (more info below). I have also read MVI’s Terms and Conditions and agree to these terms.
1 $1,199.00"

 

My suggestion is you go to White Auto's website and contact Chris through that channel. confirm the above is required, and the part number to your cluster

I want to get apple car play and the Denali cluster but wanted to make sure the cluster matched the rest of the lighting in my truck

You can get a red or blue cluster   the radio shouldnt have to be changed.  But the hmi might also if you want factory nav (dont quote me on that

This is exactly what I want except I think it could be done for cheaper. What parts did you have to swap?

the only way to obtain CarPlay and keep the factory nav was to replace both the modules (radio and nav modules) - - what you saw in my post was the meat of my receipt  - if you know a cheaper way - I'd say go for it

FYI...and I hope the date is supposed to read 11/19 as in Nov 19th not 10/19 as in Oct 2019...

WAMS will be COMPLETELY closed until 10/19We will not be available to communicate nor will we be taking new orders during this time (we are working diligently through our large backlog). Thanks!

They have updated it to "WAMS will be COMPLETELY closed until 11/19". So I think your hopes were correct.

    • Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.  
    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?
