Steps get removed. The modules are mounted in a bracket on the driver side running board.

Since the Control circuit is the Low Speed GMLAN, there is no error that come up when removed. You will have open connectors though once connected so you’ll want to cover that from the elements and shorting something out. If you can remove the harnesses that goes between the driver and passenger, that’ll help the next person install it easier.

Xenawise is there any chance you are able to provide a link to where you pulled this image from? I am looking for part #7 and can not find it anywhere online or even a part number.

Here is a parts book blow-up of the system. Does not show all of the mounting points but #19 and #26 are the main bolts. #4 is the frame that all these bolts will go through.

Same question here... one of mine has started leaking and I am out of warranty.  I've been looking for part numbers, but can't seem to find them anywhere (online).  Anyone have a parts breakdown?

I have a 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 and I need to replace the motor on the driver side retractable assist step. The motor will run but the step will not swing out. I can move it manually so it appears that the gear drive mechanism inside the motor may be stripped. Does anyone know where I can purchase a replacement motor?

Easiest is go to your dealer parts counter and get a quote or part number for the motor. They can tell you if its even sold separately or if you have to buy an entire assembly. Once you get the part number, search online. My dealer surprised me a few times by having a better parts price vs GMpartsDirect, ShopChevyparts, etc. They always tack on a big shipping charge to their low advertised price.

I have removed my sliding running boards but the rod that comes out of the motor in the front. Is there anyway of removing that or pushing it up so it won’t show? The rod in the back I was able to push up so it can be hidden.

I have removed my sliding running boards. But I was seeing how I can remove the rod that the running board attached to from the motor. I was able to push the rod in the back up to hide it from viewing.

Hi,

 

I just want to remove the running board from the swing arms to lubricate the pin that swivels as they open. There is a bit and plate on tye bottom but how do you remove the pin. The step plate needs to come off or something

I recently purchased a 2018 denali ultimate that the previous owner took the steps off of. When I purchased the truck I was given the steps with it. I put them back on and they will not do anything. I've checked everything I can think of, the fuse, the connections, I have tried unplugging the battery, and also the button under the radio. Everything is plugged correctly and in there correct spots. Wondering if anyone else has any Idea besides bring it to the dealer. Thanks!

      Lower trims ( WT, Custom, Silverado ( aka LT )

      By newdude · Posted

      HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.       Here is the Trail Boss interior.  Memory seats and Super Cruise are present.  All things the LT Trail Boss it replaces, and the RST it was based on didn't get on the current gen.  You had to go to LTZ or ZR2 for memory seats, and High Country for Super Cruise.

      2021 vs 2026 handling (1500 X31 Sierra)

      By dennismc · Posted

      I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it.

      frustrating P0446 code

      By Old Bay · Posted

      So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29.
