I found a company that makes a bypass that only makes the Task Lights work while driving when you turn your brights on.

prove it.  :)

Boost automotive has a product that does have the mirror lights on with high beam but does not have a way to shut off and on.  also some do not like the T-tap connection and would rather use a diode method of this mod.

Right. That is what I plan to do. 1N4004 diodes. I download the wiring schematics from uplifter, just have to take the time to figure it out. Boost automotive has some YouTube videos that will help to.

I plan on making it so the fog lights and the mirror lights turn on with the brights. Just have not had time to look at what connections will need a 1-way resistor 

Any luck with that? I was going to just make my own harness, because $70 seemed like a lot for something that I had to Ttap into my $50k truck....

Not yet. I downloaded the diagrams I just haven’t went through them.

Does anybody know the part number for the light in the mirror I was driving down the highway and a rock hit the light and chipped the housing and it just looks bad with a big hole in the middle of the light and water is getting inside?? Part number??

Is there a work around to get the mirror lights to be turned on while the truck is in gear? 

Boostauto makes a harness for it. You can run them when you put the high beams on.

A lot late to the party, but 3 posts up, the one and done is asking for a part number???

There is a QR code right on it in plain site, how do you afford a new truck when you can not even figure that out🤔

Yes! This kit makes it so when you use you high beams both mirror lights come on also. https://boostautoparts.com/products/high-spot?utm_source=GM+2019%2B+High+Beam+to+Spot&utm_medium=Description&utm_campaign=YouTube

You end up finding your way around this? I see Boost’s product but can’t imagine $50 in actual parts. Looks like 2 connections between brown and grey BCM and a fused link and a relay are what they used.

I have a ‘21 rst and I have task lighting. But I do not have the mirrors. If I get a set of mirrors, will they work as they should since I have the rest of the task lights, or will other things need to be done as well. Thanks in advance

    • Question @diyer2 on this line if you please. Are you saying the shudder is the system turning on and off at the frequency of the shudder? Guess I'm asking if you are saying you have seen it do this with the bi-direction scan tool in graph mode? If so have you been able to discern the 'trigger'. Something is telling to cycle rapidly.    My truck just started doing this recently. 197K on the clock. My response has been M5 anything under 55 mph. I treat it like a lugging stick shift. Gear down and let it spin a bit. Engauge M5, then tow mode and then M6 lets the trans stay in 5th but the AFM is active. Smooth like Skippy.    My thought was that as a machine ages the friction gets lower and as the system is load based, the lower friction would allow it to turn on at ever lower rpm until it reaches the lugging point. And yes I am ignorant of any minimum rpm requirement for the system. If you know that would be useful information.    As you know I run a Scan-Gauge II which allows me to watch the On/Off of the signal to the VLOM. While in the shudder mode I'm not seeing is cycle at that frequency or at all for that matter outside the triggers @newdude posted a few years back. Now is it possible that the refresh rate isn't fast enough to catch it? Maybe. It is why I asked my first question about graphing and trigging parameter.     As we have observed from members here the failure point is all over the map miles wise as you note yourself in your opening post. That by itself begs a few questions like fellows that comment on these lifters failing even after the system has been disabled. Long after. 😬   https://www.enginelabs.com/news/tech-tips-replacing-ls-active-fuel-management-lifters-with-melling/   The Gen5 lifters operate the same as the LS versions. In fact they are the same lifter.    https://www.enginelabs.com/tech-stories/sorting-out-gen-v-lt-lifter-failure-with-a-simple-valvetrain-fix/        
    • UPDATE 2: Steering wheel control backlights and control of the cluster can supposedly be achieved by adding a wire to pin 20 of the cluster and tapping it to pin 2 of the main clock spring harness. I'm going to give it a shot - will update  
    • GM Global A pickups 2019-2022 can do OTA programming for the radio.  GM VIP (GM Global B) can do OTAs for almost every module on board.  So a 2022.5 and newer pickup can do OTAs for recalls like the 2.7 fuel flow recall.  EVs get OTAs that improve one pedal driving, radio issues, HVAC issues, updated battery management software, etc.     So age of the vehicle/what GM electrical platform its on will alter what amount of updates can be pushed on OTAs.  
    • Thank You.   So far my new ride is making me look like a genius for going with the 3.0L, as my first fuel refill occurred over three weeks from when I took delivery.  This engine combination is very amazing.  So far no issues and had not done a regen yet.
    • I am curious as to how much fluid you put back in the transmission ( assuming you had replaced the filter to compare to my findings ) and then went through the process of warming up the trans before pulling the check plug to drain out the excess and if you measured how much came back out.    I just found it surprising that some claimed a certain amount less fluid being put in and then draining some back out. The attitude of the truck as per if the surface is level and how the trucks stance is would make quite a difference since the check plug is right at the front of the transmission.
