I waited a long time to do this upgrade on my truck because I didn’t want to have to cut and splice the wiring in my truck and wanted everything to work as if the console were factory. So when I saw t

where do i go to order a wire harness?    

 

Matt

If you haven't yet, HarnessDR.com - There are two versions, 16-pin and 23-pin.  23-pin is a SEND IN service and is likely needed for most all 2014 trucks and some 2015 trucks.  Some time in 2015, GM changed to the 16-pin version.

There are a number of things that will cause the inside compartment USB hub to not work.  

 

1.  Does the SUB Hub have an SD Card slot?

2.  What year truck?

3.  What USB Cable combination are you using?

4.  What happens when you plug a phone in using the USB cable?

4.  Are both USB Ports and the 3.5mm aux jack not working?

 

1. No the SUB Hub does not have an SD Card slot.

2.the truck is a 2017.

3.im using the same set up that you used in your video the green to grey I believe from hmi to input on the hub then black to brown the output from the hub to the connector

4.all that happens is that it charges it that’s about it 

5. only the USB ports work as a charging plug that’s it and the aux is not work

What about the front port? Does it work the way you want it?

Yes the front ports work well connects to my radio and all it’s just the inside compartment one. I thought I had a pic of it but I can always take one

Double check your USB connections. The front usb hub should have the grey end of the usb cable plugged in with the green going into the HMI.

The compartment usb hub should be the brown feed at the front with Black going into the HMI. Make sure those are fully seated. If the front is working, this mean the green port is outputting. So double check that.

Wish they made this for the 19's on up.

"They " don't make the harnesses. GM corporate and dealerships will tell you it can't be done.

 

The guy that started this post 67 pages ago makes them. One guy, his sideline. He has been generous enough to share his knowledge time after making modifications using his own truck as a test mule.

 

Your only hope is that Phil (HarnessDr.com) and/or Tinkeringfox will get crazy and trade their trucks for a new model and start the experimentation again.

 

Thanks again Phil, all 3 of the harnesses I purchased from you are still going strong !!

 

Seriously thinking about number 4, the dimming mirror upgrade !

Okay I have just switched the wiring I had the black going to the front hub so I rerouted it to the hmi and I will see if that works after work. But to clarify things the green and grey ties in to the input side or output side of the front hub

Anybody having a issue with having the service airbag light come on after installing new Denali seats. I purchased the seat position sensor harness from Phil but as looking into the seats I am not finding it on either seat

Did the seats come from a wrecked truck? I’ve had to swap the seat belt tensioners before.

A development of an airbag light requires some troubleshooting. For example... installing both factory seats and seeing if the airbag light goes away. If it does, then install the driver side seat first (leave factory passenger in). See if the lights comes on or not. If not, then add the passenger seat. If the light comes on then, then the issue is tied to the passenger seat. Usually the seat position sensor. If your factory seat didn’t come with one, then try swapping the seat belt tensioner. This is the part that the seat belt attaches to on the seat.

You can to tackle this strategically and see which seat is causing the trigger.

Yes I have the factory seat belts I never changed them but I did notice the plug on the Denali seat seemed it didn’t snap in on the passenger seat ima look at the stock one and see if it’s doable to take off that one to swap out

      seat base height *lowering* (base 40/20/40 seat, 2026 1500 WT std cab)

      By bwiese · Posted

      Folks, Have a great new 2026 WT  (std cab, 2.7/4WD) w/base 40/20/40 mech adj bench "fake buckets"  (with lower and upper center console) heavy vinyl seats.  Overall the seats are very comfortable and the vinyl is heavy and appears less likely to 'split out'. Am very tall (6'5")  + a bad back/osteporosis/former hyperparathyroidism so ease/range of movement is a bit restricted.  The truck rides a bit high and I use a nerf step bar w/my left foot to step in, then I put right foot/leg in, drag my butt in  & get seated.  Worked fine in my 2018 RAM quadCab. But I end up dragging my butt over the left raised sidecushsion area of vinyl seat, and due to texture there's fair amount of traction on slide inward.  (ArmorAll didn't improve.) If the seat were even ~1/2" - 3/4" lower it'd be helpful, but base seats just have the forward/backward underseat bail and the side lever for tilt which really doesn't affect seat height.   I really don't want to 'de-puff' the left side sidecushion forming the  fake 'bucket'. I know one company sells 'seat elevator blocks':  but is there a simple way of lowering the height of the driver seat instead?   Thanks Bill W San Jose

      I have a basic 2026 1500 WT  (2.7L/4WD reg cab shorttbed). Comfy, generally happy with electronics/radio - but is there a way I can add switches to steering wheel right-side position (curr. empty) so I can adjust volume, push phone button to voice dial, etc? Bill W San Jose

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Tyler Gibbs · Posted

      The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.

      Dave's Auto (custom engine builder) tear down of L8T

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.
