Off-Road Screen in DIC question?

Just wondering how others Off-road screen works in the DIC. Mine is a 2015 LTZ, the side to side shows angles when driving even just off the crown of the road it will read 1 degree. The steering wheel shows the angle and the 4X4 graphic lights up 2 or 4 tires depending on what is selected. The problem I have is the front to back never was showing any angles even driving over an overpass which I would guess at 5 degrees.

 

I took it to the Dealer and they told me the scan tool can't read that so it was hard to troubleshoot. They contacted the GM Tech Center who said to replace some module(sorry didn't get the name of that one). It didn't fix the problem, so the Tech Center said to replace the Electronic Brake Controller. It still doesn't read when driving up overpasses, but if I'm on a driveway with a pretty big incline it will eventually read something. Next thing they said to replace was the Instrument Cluster and it acts the same as the last time.

 

So my question for those that have this screen, when you are driving at the speed limit and going up an overpass do you get an angle reading on the front to back?

 

Thanks

same here, all the functions (different angles including steer wheels) seems to work fine. is there an electronic "yaw" sensor on the truck somewhere? there has to be something to determine the different angles (tilt) of the truck.

I have a 6inch lift on mine and the front to back angle never changes unless im at 10+ degree's. the rest works perfectly fine.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you guys that responed.

 

The only time I can get a reading is if I'm almost stopped on an incline. If I'm moving at the speed limit and go up an overpass and down the other side the reading stays at 0.

 

Dealer has replaced a few parts as explained before, but they say its up to the GM Tech Center to figure out what is wrong since they can't measure the sensor outputs.

Hmmm.... I wonder what type of sensors they are.

hi, i am having the same problem with my 2015 sierra 4x4. the side to side and tire angle read while driving, but not the up and down when going over overpasses and such, its annoying me. i haven't tried any real offroading with it yet. did you find a solution?
