I have a 2017 Sierra, would this fix my pixel3 charging issue?

You likely need what P/N is for the 2018 module.

 

That said - why bother?  You can't do wireless Android Auto.  Just plug your phone in and be done with it.

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

My 2017 factory wireless charger would not charge my iphone 8 plus, so I upgraded to the 2018 updated unit for $65 which does charge my phone now.  And yes it would most likely solve your wireless charging issue.

 

Now that I have 2 chargers I can have my phone connected to apple car play, and my wife can still charge her phone on the wireless pad.

My 2017 Yukon Denali is doing the same thing; it will not charge my iPhone 7 or X. Charging bolt comes on for a couple of seconds then goes off.

 

There are a couple of ways to do this from what I have found; swap out the module to an 18' (part number 13521066) and modify the 3-wire connection from your 17' to it, purchase a retrofit kit from Infotainment that has the connection extension already modified with the module for you, OR (and I have yet to confirm this) purchase an entirely new Center Console Armrest Assembly from GM that includes the new module and wire connection to your vehicle.

 

Has anyone here purchased an entire new Center Console Armrest Assembly (GM Part#84329326)  and just swapped them out to get the wireless charger to work in your 2016-2017?

Big shoot out to pgamboa and his video.  I was going crazy as to why my iPhone X would not charge in my 2016. I just got my 2018 module and ordered the new conncector.  Took about 15 minutes to put everything together and pin the new connector, now everything works like a charm.  I did not rotate my mat, and i can charge as long as the phone is touching the back stop.

 

I do have a 2016 module for sale...if anyone wants a nice paperweight. LOL

This is great info, thank you! Any chance you have the link to his video and the part number to order?

@pgamboa I have the 2017 Chevy Tahoe.  Would the module switch with the 2018 GM part work to upgrade/make compatible my charging pad with my iPhone X?  If so can you send me info on your cord where I won’t have to change those pin things and also can you send me the info on where to order the new module.  I did hear in your video that it was on back order...hopefully not now though!  My email is ukpa09 at gmail.com -thanks a bunch!!!! And by the way- I’m in medicine and am not mechanically inclined- thank you for breaking this down in a way I could understand!!!!

My Samsung Galaxy s8 wireless charges in a magpul case. I did have to take the rubber mat out of the charger, rotate it 180 degrees, cut the alignment nub off the rubber mat, and put it back in for it to work. Took about 5 minutes and is a great feature that I use every day. Keeps the console area clean and free of wires which I like. 

 

Note on the fitment of the phone into the pad, it fits completely perfect with no wiggle room side to side and some room to go forward and back. I keep mine in the all the way back position and that works for me. The case is a good one for the phone too as far as drops and grip etc.

 

Just my $0.02

Has anyone got the Pixel XL to wireless charge in the GM wireless charge pads? I have the '17 High Country but it doesn't seem to want to work. It is like a millimeter too wide to sit perfectly flat. I tried searching, but you get 100's of replies because "Sent from my Pixel"....

 

But curious if anyone is wireless charging with any Pixel XL or similar 3" wide phones and how they got it to work. Really not pumped about trying to shave down the large plastic trim around the rubber mat to make it a hair wider but that seems like the next step...

Wanted to provide some information regarding recent phones as of summer 2020. 

 

I just did a PnP retrofit kit from @pgamboa's site and had a great experience with it and the install videos.  As of this post I have not been able to find the updated 2018 model 10 rib charging mat in stock anywhere (if they can even track down the actual 10 rib version at all with the weird part# stuff), but was happy to see my Samsung Galaxy S20 5G+ is able to consistently charge without issue on the 2017 9 rib version mat with the tall backstop already in the truck.

I didn't see any of the install videos reference it specifically, but if you were preoccupied with not breaking the console and didn't notice exactly how the original wiring is ran, there are channels for it inside the console ribbing itself and a cutout to hold the wiring in place along the hinge included on the driver's side hinge area of the underside plastic cover.

How well are your devices charging?  I installed the charging pad into my '16 Denali and it seems to trickle at best.  If not using the phone (iphone 8 plus) it will very slowly add charge to the battery but if its being used for maps the charge drops but not as quickly as if not connected.  If I run Waze, that's a joke; the charge doesn't even begin to keep up.  

 

Am I just expecting too much?

      Ac not keeping up

      By Aimatdeer · Posted

      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.

      I call B.S. when I first moved to Texas my first house would only cool to 80 with the Texas heat. The AC tech said it was normal at 100 degrees outside. I remodeled the house put in a new AC. I could hang meat. My cars may need recirculating to start. Once moving it switches to regular AC and I could hang meat. Living in Texas no one would put up with only 20 degrees difference.

      AC in home or auto only cool down 15-25 degrees from outside temp, but what will help is to put the ac in recirc mode this will recirc the Inside cabin air rather then trying to cool down the outside hot air, I always have mine in recirc mode.
