Fogs on with park/head lights


Recommended Posts

Posted

Brown connector on BCM - Jumper  pin 10 Brn/wht to pin 22 Blue. 

 

Fogs will come on with park/head lamps now. No need for diode.

Assume this for 2019  do you still need the diode for a 2017

No diode needed for the 2019.

Using a diode on the older trucks (2018 and down) was an option. I never used them.

Still illegal in most if not all states/territories to have fog lights and bright headlights on at the same time.  Around here, that's an easy (and expensive) ticket.  But as they say, your mileage may vary . . .

If your brights are on and you pass a LEO you deserve a ticket.  

I've helped numerous LEO's with this mod dating back to 2010.

 

As a matter of fact all ALEA Tahoes have this mod.

This mod keeps the fogs on anytime the park lamps and/or headlamps(hi and lo beam) are on. 

 

If you just want to keep them on with hi beams connect a diode  from pin 18 (bn/vt) to 10 (bn/white).

Setup this way you will have to initially  turn the fogs on manually to activate with lo beams.

has anyone done this yet on their 2019?  I swear that brown connector (and the wires) is much smaller when compared to the old K2 trucks.  Seems like a real job to get a diode inserted..

Just placed order for my diodes on ebay [emoji4]

Had this mod on my 17 and loved it.

 

Which ones should we bridge to make the cargo lights come on with reverse lights? I had that one and it was nice to unlock from far away and see all lights come on and shine through the parking lot!

Any way we can get the mirror work lights to stay on while the truck is in drive? I didn't realize the truck had to be in park for them to work but they it makes sense from a DOT stand point.

    • Thanks for response. Leak was right under drivers seat or thereabout.   Had checked by other mechanics and have read other information.   The solution can be a tad complicated and replacing multiple parts And with some.  The issue was still the same.   The brakes do work.   Just that the pedal is softer and goes further down.  But the brakes do work. 
    • Breaking News!    I'm going to tell you that I'm going to tell you.  Then I'm going to tell you what I'm going to tell you.  Then I'm going to tell you.  Then I'm going to tell you what I told  you.  Then I'm going to tell you what I'm about to tell you on the other side of the break.  Then we're going to break. Then I'm not going to tell you what I told you I was going to tell you.  But I'll tell you something else that is Breaking News just coming to the desk that everyone reported on yesterday.  Then I'll tease a human interest telling I'll get to on the other side of a larger break. Then I'll tell you one item in 20 seconds and go back to an even longer break. Longest break of the night.  Then I'll tell you a fluff piece that takes 10 seconds and sign off into a three minute break while you wait for the next 30 minutes of rinse and repeat on the local news.    In al you'll get about 12 minutes of something, 5 minutes of which is worth hearing in a 30 minute show and 18 minutes of advertising at a sound level twice as loud as the news.    Of course you can switch to cable news and hear 12 different people tell the same four stories in much the same format as the Network News for 20 hours of which the majority will be advertising.  And four hours of late night Specials about things you wonder why you stayed up to listen to. Half of which will be repeats.....   OR you can go for a drive  
    • Did you ever figure this out? My 2022 Trail Boss, and now my 2026 LT did this from time to time.  I believe it was more connected to Android Auto and my phone being the cause. Maybe try going for a drive, sans cell phone.... and see if it happens? 
    • I have a 2026 Silverado LT, the non bose as well.  Upgrading the door speakers is pretty straightforward. You could honestly go to walmart, or Auto Zone/ O Reilly and get a set of 6x9s for the front, and 6.5s for the rear. You do also have to get some adapters for each, but they are like $10 a pair on Amazon. Then some plug and play harnesses that are about $10 a pair on Amazon as well.  And I would also suggest a 10 pack of the Amazon Basics sound deadening. Slap that all around the speakers and on the open metal of the inside of the door. And your golden.   I am currently doing this with my Silverado. Although I am having a bit of trouble because I am snooby I guess and bought some Alpine S2 S69c's which are 2 way components and I am having to wire from the door up to the dash....  Having never installed speakers before, its taking me just a bit to get everything correct. But if you dont buy expensive component speakers, and just some $40-$50 door speakers. You will DRASTICALLY improve the sound over these stock paper cone junk speakers. I thought my Silverado had an issue with the radio/ sound for a while.  Come to find out.  The stock speakers are just THAT SH*TTY   I cannot wait to have some decent sound in the truck   What did you end up doing?
    • Its all automatic based on yaw sensor data.  If enough incline is detected, it engages.   My recommendation though would be to disengage it before driving off and not let it auto disengage by touching the gas pedal.  The HD trucks use the same setup as prior years, the drum in hat park brake.  But now with an electric actuator.  If you drive off repeatedly over time, it can torque the park brake shoes and can also prematurely wear them out.           Electric console shift will set the park brake on flat ground too.  Pretty sure they've got it programmed to activate every time.
