Okay, 4 years since the last post...but I have a question related and hoping someone might have some insight. 

 

I was disappointed to discover that my new-to-me 2015 Sierra 2500 High Country does not have the off-road nor the trailer brake display on the DIC. My 2015 1500 Z71 did. I just discovered from this thread (and after reading my owner's manual more thoroughly) that there is a base level DIC and an uplevel DIC. The DIC will display the trailer brake info if I press the trailer brake adjustment controls, but it is only a momentary thing, not a permanent display that can be scrolled through.

 

So, my question is, does anyone know of any hack I can perform in order to get the uplevel features to display on the DIC?

If it's a HIgh Country it will have the 'uplevel' display. 

 

Trailer brake control info should be on either display. 

 

For uplevel:

 

DIC Info Page Options
The info pages on the DIC can be turned on or off through the Settings menu.
1. Press < to access the cluster applications.
2. Press (up) or (down) to scroll to the Settings application.
3. Press (checkmark)  to enter the Settings menu.
4. Scroll to Info Pages and press >.
5. Press (up) or (down) to move through the list of possible information displays.
6. Press (checkmark) while an item is highlighted to select or deselect that item. 

When an item is selected, a checkmark will appear next to it.

 

 

DIC Info Pages
The following is the list of all possible DIC info page displays.
Some may not be available for your particular vehicle.

Some items may not be turned on by default but can be turned on through the Settings app.

See “DIC Info Page Options” earlier in this section.

    • I've tried everything and still have the rattle.  My next thing to eliminate is the seatbelt connection on the real pillar.  The cover seems loose and could be the source.  I found one of my grandsons video games in the back seat rest compartment   and had a glimmer of joy, but that wasn't it.  I'll keep trying.  
    • I'm tangentially aware of what Harley used to be, back in my riding days, although I was into Italian sport bikes. Ducati seems to have gone the other way; still very expensive, but they've made a large subset of their bikes a lot more reliable and accessible, and they've diversified their lineup to include other riding sports too. IMO, a good example of where greed and growth might have also been beneficial to the consumer.   Although GM is charging a relative premium for its most popular pickups, I find that there are some excellent value propositions in its lineup as well.   The Colorado still strikes me as the most attractive midsize on the market, and also the most reasonably priced given capability and features. There's a part of me that wishes I would have bought one instead of my Silverado.   The Equinox ...I must be getting old. The ICE equinox is a great design IMO. Probably because it reminds me visually of an actual SUV aka an S Blazer. Underneath it's nothing even remotely close, but it LOOKS good. It's got all the modern features plus some at a very reasonable price. If I had to run out and buy myself a daily commuter to do everything except tow, an Equinox would be on my list.   It does bug me that mid-tier 1500's reach into the 50-60k range, and Tahoes and Burbs are even more expensive. Less than 10 years ago, dealers were sitting on rows of Tahoe LS and LT's for low 40's. You could even still find Tahoes with a front bench, still!
    • Big oil is raking in billions from the Iran war. Can it avoid Trump’s fury?   Remember I said Big Oil is 'Vertically Integrated"?   Even as they no longer own the majority of the "Pump" they still own the "Well". Crude price upward pressure does not translate into that same pressure on production. Pumping cost remain unaffected and the gap is pure profit. Even after subtraction of a minor, comparatively, lower amount from supposed, but not always, realized refining volume. Consumers hate war, Big Oil, not so much.
    • We live in a world where the average person expects more. People say wages and our needs are farther apart. My first new home had 3 bedrooms and one bedroom. My first car and truck had what would be considered a stripped or work vehicle. In my neighborhood back then there were more homes like that and cars too. Middle managers and second home buyers worked their way up to the fancy houses and cars. Car loans were 3 years. GM had different models of cars for different income levels. The cars were pretty much the same size if you wanted a big vehicle. The nameplate designated the opulence. Chevy, Pontiac, Buick, Oldsmobile and Cadillac.  To be fair some of the cost is government mandated. We can’t blame them for giving us what people will pay for. Careful advertising steering people towards more profitable SUVs and trucks. As I learned recently a minivan is a cheaper more efficient form of transportation. Certainly easier to live with. Somebody realized the profit margin wasn’t as big and gave it a soccer mom label. So it lost its coolness. They’re making it the masses are buying it. You hit your hand with a hammer you can’t blame the hammer.
