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.

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.

    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
