Because the charger is positioned toward the back, and with the way the pad is, the bumper on the backside pushes the phone forward away from the charger. So reversing the mat allows the phone to be p

The 2018 works just fine with my iPhone X.  I just went to the dealership and tested it out.  I got the part number for the 2018 wireless charger module which is 13507652.  The parts guy said that it

Easier than splicing, just trim the tab on the OEM connector. No waiting. 3 minutes and you're done

I called GM Customer Care 1-800-462-8782.
I went to dealer and asked them to assess my wireless charging module as it has never worked for me, regardless of the phones used with or without cases, and both on and off of their approved list that was released January 2018.

(Even though the truck was sold in 2017, so retroactively becoming selective with approved devices? Like lol, what?)
They tested it and used EL-51755 Test Tool, a small tool that to my analysis is designed to sit a wireless receiver in just the right position completely flush with the charging mat in order to get a connection over the single coil, and which indicated the charging module was working properly.
I then asked two of the service men who had approved phones to place their phones in the charging mat. Neither worked, with or without cases.
I also walked them over to a 2018 same exact trim as mine, and had them replicate the process. The phones connected instantly, with or without cases and with plenty of variance in positioning.
While they understood the situation they had to deny replacing the module with a 2018, as per their official testing it was working as intended.
I informed them that while I understood they are following official process, there is clearly a valid issue at hand and would be contacting GM Customer Care.

I called GM CC and gave a detailed description as above.
Within 24 hours the agent assigned to my case returned my call, although I missed it.
Since they are closed weekends I returned the call today, and re-explained my situation. The agent was friendly, understanding, and said he would contact my local dealer.
Within 30 minutes a service man from my dealership called, said some GM department he wasn't familiar with was calling him telling him to approve "something with my phone".
I returned this call within 15 minutes. Unfortunately this conversation was a bit deferring in nature, the guy was a bit belligerent in asking if my phone was on the approved devices list, and made some other hostile comments, basically presenting a "not my problem" and "this is how it is" attitude.
He would be happy to replace it with a 2017 module, but when I specified 13521066 he got upset and stated to me that it was a 2018 part and as he told me before he couldn't order it.
I told him I would prefer to contact GM CC and clarify things.
I recontacted my agent at GM CC, updated him on the call with the dealer, and stated clearly that my intent is to have GMC provide for me, under warranty replacement, a 2018 module part # 13521066 and that I will install it myself as I am quite sure the servicemen would gripe about the harness plug being slightly different.
I simply want my vehicle to function as advertised, and it is also well within the bumper to bumper warranty (which covers electronics).

I will update as things progress.



Good news, just got a nice call from the dealership that the 2017 module has been revised to address the issue and they will be replacing it for me under warranty this Monday.

Yep.  GM will not be addressing this issue.  Not worth the time or frustration.  Just drop the $100 and move on.  Glad I did.

Mine is being replaced this Monday under warranty. See above.

Great news - you'll have to report back what they do.  I'm assuming a module revision means they will install the 2018 charging module - don't really see how they could modify the 2017 module.

Yeah, I got a laugh out of it because they're refusing to call it a 2018 module. :lol:
They all specifically say "revised 2017 module", I'm guessing its a 2018 module with a 2017 harness/plug so they servicemen can easily replace.
I will update after my appointment on Monday.

According to pgamboa I thought the 2017 cable would not plug into the 2018 module without some sort of modification which is why he designed the new cable.

Please report back on this and show us what part they install. 

 

Fyi to eberyone needing the plug. Mouser now has 1500 in stock. I just ordered 2.

So I received what I thought was everything I need to do the oem retrofit on MY 15 Sierra but i ran into two issues. First one is the trim ring that goes around the charging mat, online the pn:22792216 cross references to MY 2017. The second issue is with finding the power source for the module. Online it shows that pn:23211330 for the 15 and 17 but I took the console apart and there’s no plug on my harness, so depending on cost I’m going to try and order the harness once I figure out the pn or option #2 is tapping into the rear cig lighter outlet. But if anyone has an idea of what the actual part numbers are I would appreciate it.

Same, I dont have wireless charging but I'd like to add it and I assume I need the harness to do so, unless there's a plug in there. But I doubt they'd include it, that would be too easy.

I have this issue with my SLE, if the truck doesn't come with the option, it doesn't have the connector there to "add" it in after the fact which is strange because the heated steering wheel option has the connector there to be plugged into if you're so bold to upgrade to add that feature.

 

God I miss the old days where you just needed to buy the option and you could add it yourself since it was a single harness or you could buy the missing harnesses to cover it all.

So i went to the dealership today trying to get some part numbers, since i'm piecing parts individually due to me purchasing a center console lid on eBay that was just the leather wrapped lid. Anyways heres a list of parts that i've ordered so far with the exception of the center console harness.

Center Console Harness P/n:23241964

Wireless Charger Module P/n:13521066

Charging Mat P/n:23264395

Hinge Cover P/n: 23247228

Tray trim P/n:84017364

 

So far i repined the harness that goes to wireless charger with the new connector, verified that the center console harness P/n:23211330 that comes with the 2014/2015 center consoles did not have the connector provision for the wireless charger. I planned on replacing the center console harness with the harness listed above but found out that its on a national back order with no eta. So once i receive the last piece i ordered, i plan on making a new harness. I'm going to splice into the rear 12v plug and run it to the charger module.

      OK you say you could hang meat but what was the actual temp? One of the AC systems job is to remove humidity that we feel on our body your new system removed alot of humidity as that is were the water comes from on the ac coils and that made it feel colder. 80 degrees with high humidity will feel hot vs 80 degrees with low humidity will feel alot cooler.

      I was using recirc/max air. Especially if it really hot i start out by lowering the front windows a little with regular ac the go to recirculation after a few and rolling windows up. And it does not have the newest refrigerant. It has per the info under the hood r134. Not the new r1234yf.

      AC diagnostic on a neo-classic Camaro

      By Atlas · Posted

      tldr; Shade tree mechanic stumped by variable displacement AC compressor.   Not Silverado related, but for my 2000 Camaro SS. I've never really used the AC since acquiring the car a good handful of years ago. I plan to take it on a trip this summer so I wanted to make sure the AC was in good shape. On an 73 degree day in the shop with the car idling I set the AC on "Max", temp set to cold, and fan on hi. The compressor turned on and air turned nice and cold.   I let it run for several minutes but noticed the compressor never cycled off. The engine was up to temperature enough that it began cycling the cooling fans on high. I had a set of manifold gauges hooked up and it was consistently at about 25 psi on the low side and between 200 and 225 psi (warm engine) on the high side. Per temperature charts, the low side is low (should be 30-35) and the high side is a little high (up to 170 per chart). I read the low pressure as potentially being under-charged underscored by a continually running compressor This was also underscored by temp readings of mid-20 degrees at the vents. Not just cold, freezing cold. Switching off the AC but leaving the HVAC fan on high produced a deluge of condensation underneath the vehicle. I was getting ice buildup on the evap core most likely.   The low reading (25psi) concerned me that the compressor wasn't switching off so I swapped out the pressure switch. No change in behavior, still ran constantly.   The AC clutch works fine as it engages/disengages with the HVAC switch on command. The compressor relay is good as I swapped it with two different known good relays just to be sure. Having eliminated that, and the pressure switch, I added refrigerant, thinking the constant run and low "low" pressure were signs of a slight undercharge. Makes sense, the car is 26 years old and it doesn't appear the AC system has ever been touched.   Adding some R134a didn't meaningfully change the low side pressure. And that's when a lightbulb flashed upstairs. While I consider the car "old", it's possibly "new" enough to have a variable displacement compressor. Did some reading and sure enough. Dangit. I don't work on these for this reason.   Adding refrigerant means the compressor will just compensate and won't really change pressures until it's severely overcharged or undercharged. But at least I wasn't getting ice/frost anymore, but instead high 30 degree temps out of the vents. That's more normal, but with variable displacement now I have no idea where my charge level is at. It's probably overcharged now. The high side even with the engine radiating serious heat was never really over about 225.   The static pressure at room temperature is dead on, before and after the charge. Both high/low equalize after some rest.   I'm thinking I'll need to take it to a shop. I want the proper charge level so I'm not working the compressor too hard. The only way to get an accurate charge is to evacuate and then re-charge with the exact amount specified for the system -- at least that's what I'm reading.   Anyone here with modern automotive AC knowledge?

      Mine is in the shop for the AC now. While it did get cold after a bit, it would take a while to even start to cool the air at all. Turns out the compressor was bad and cycling.
