Just a quick question since I can't find the answer elsewhere and don't particularly feel inclined to rip apart my console (just to put it back together and rip it apart again to actually upgrade): the harness that connects to the lid, is it connected in a way that you can remove the lid without disconnecting it from the charger side (does it have a disconnect in the lower part of the console or is it an integrated part of the console harness?)

 

Thanks! 

Guess so, since the rev 2 uses that disconnect for the swap. Nice work!

Just got done doing my update with your Rev2 cable. Thanks for putting these together Phil!

 

Im probably going to end up rotating that pad at some point to try and gain a little more surface area for the charge if it really does make a big difference...?

Rev 2 harness just came in and got it installed. Quick and easy and works like it should have!

 

Thanks again for making this an easy fix for us Phil!

Hey man, it’s actually in the very first post in this topic. He gives all the details there!

Do you by chance know if the harness from a 2018 is the same at the connection point behind the console?

2018 last shouldn’t need to do this. We are buying the wireless charging module from 2018 to our in previous models. Or am I misunderstanding your application?

You are misunderstanding. I have a 2016 Sierra. What I am curious about is the connection behind the console may actually be the same between the 2 trucks. In other words I am curious if you could go to the dealer and basically buy this rev 2 product that he is selling.

Why would you want to go to the dealer and buy when you can purchase from @pgamboa? The dealer may not even sell you this because it doesn't fit your truck.  I have bought a couple of things from Phil and have been more than pleased with his customer service. Plus you would be supporting a fellow member, who has helped numerous other members complete mods on their trucks.  Also sure his harness would be cheaper and superior to anything dealer would sell you.

Thanks for the order!  I'll be shipping Monday 3/26.  I use your PayPal email address for the shipment notification.  It ships USPS First Class Mail with tracking.  So be on the lookout for that email from USPS.

Thank you for the continued support and referrals!  A lot of what I do may not or doesn't even exist and I enjoy being able to help as many people as I can achieve their upgrade desires.  When someone says "can you make this?" or "can you make this work?"  That's usually a driving factor me.  LOL.  

 

One thing that I've learned in doing all of this, is that the Dealer either doesn't support what we want to do or doesn't know how.  There have been numerous occasions where a dealer misguided someone down the wrong path only to come to me to find some sort of guidance or solution.  

 

Gives me great joy to be able to help in this manner.

 

Thanks everyone for all your business and support!

I am personally always a little sceptical ordering anything online.

    • Length/amount of data capture will be important to consider, sifting through 5 minutes of a data log can be enormous when it is stored in milliseconds. Being able to find the 'event' let alone decipher it.   Presumably the driver would notice something and hit a button to capture the 'window' of data. That window has to be large enough for the operator to recognize the event and react accordingly.    The data has to be able to be retrieved easily.   The data has to be able to be understood. Which is the biggest challenge, dealer techs won't even know what most of it is and would likely not even look at it if an owner brought it to them. Meaning the owner, the least educated/qualified, trying to understand it.    How will the data be presented? Could specific PIDs be selected and a timelapse graph be watched? How will a specific value be noted as abnormal? Additionally, a good data logger would be able to 'learn' normal values for a specific vehicle and flag abnormalities automatically. It could in theory watch parameters degrade over time and suggest maintenance as needed. (If the MAF reading begins tapering off for a given set of other readings - MAP, throttle position, Ambient, etc.. a flag to check air filter.) With the amount of data available, a device (really the vehicle rather than an additional accessory) should be able to do more than issue a DTC. It should be able to run the full diagnostic suite automatically and present a solution rather than a code. (It's not the 90's anymore). The technology is available for the vehicle to not just say "P0087", it should know low fuel pressure, check other PIDs to narrow down the problem itself, and determine if it is a lift pump, high pressure pump, regulator, leak in the fuel line, clogged filter, etc. Even if it can't narrow it down, it should be able to guide the user to the likely problems.   This would be a major problem for dealer service departments, which are the manufacturers customers it is in their collective best interest to NOT have this available to the consumer.   Further, if the owner is going to be the primary consumer of the data, it's got to be at a consumer price point vs. dealer only specialty tool price.   This group is more 'involved' in their vehicle than general public/consumer and will have knowledge, experience, needs and desires that are quite different from the market at large.   
    • I put the prof up. If you read what I posted. You can see that housing, cars and income are in line with the era we were talking about. It’s harder in some places easier in others. Let’s agree to disagree and put this back on track, OK? We both are pretty stubborn and hard headed. But I bring receipts. If you wish I will not respond to you in the future. 
    • Lets see if I can sum up two pages of nothing useful.    You want to refute your own governments data of the "Purchasing Power" Index FOR THE ENTIRE USA and its territories replacing it with the experience of a single family and its business and label that reality?  Then pound on that for a week hoping it will find traction?    Stan, I've told you several times. I don't do irrational. There are more people in the USA than your family.    I'm pretty sure this tread is so blown up. I'll give you a few days or months if need be to post yourself silent then I'll see if I can find enough parts of the train to reassemble it. 
    • Facebook groups hate VSE, poor customer service; their responses to criticisms are pretty poor for a reputable company. I'm not a customer, haven't bought anything from them, but how they handle themselves on social media is a definite "No" for me. 
    • $10,000 for a transmission?   Pretty sure I could buy all the parts, tools, and education to rebuild it myself for a quarter of that amount.   or swap it out with a new one...
