What model and trim is it, guessing a crew since your VIN starts with a 3.

The 3 means it as built in Mexico, not the box type

Correct, 14-18 crew cabs were built in Mexico.

Sorry to revive this but trying to find out some info on BTV Rpo code, I got this truck form my dealer used 2016 CC Silverado, it only came with one set of keys, and the key is not even the normal looking one that my older chevys have been looks like maybe a replacement. I have the BTV code so was not sure if I can just get remote start fobs and have them programmed or do I still need to more installed on it?

Yes sir, and your new truck should start with a 1,  4. or 5 (not likely the last 2) if built in the USA, 2 for Canada. Second digit will be a G, for GM.

Yup my 2018 that is my new rig starts with 1. Made sure of this before buying. Too many start with 3 when i worked at dealer had key fit/working issues when cutting the key from VIN. Hated that.

Honestly, the build quality on my 18 Mexican made crew is just as good as our $75000.00, 16 Tahoe which was built in the USA. Both LTZ, which should not make a difference how they are put together, but maybe?

If your truck did not come with it, you will need everything that comes in this kit, 22997089 Complete Remote Start Kit for 2014 - 2018 Silverado or Sierra 1500 OEM

Is there a write up on here on how to install?

I have a 2015 GMC sierra. I pulled the RPO listing for my vin and it shows this...

BTV

CONTROL REMOTE ENGINE START REMOTE CONTROL ENGINE START(BTV)

 

So does this mean without a doubt my truck has the ability. I bought the truck used and the keyfob was broken, I bought a replacement with the same 4 buttons, took the guts out of the old keyfob and put it in the new case and the doorlock buttons work, but the remote start button does not(even with hitting lock, then holding the circle for 3 seconds) I guess my question is now, is that button of the remote not working, or is the truck not set up for remote start. My next step is to reprogram a new 4 button remote and see if it will remote start with that remote. My main question is that if the RPO says BTV is there no reason remote start should not work?

 

Thanks in advance - Joe

I am not an expert but I have the same RPO code on my 2016 and the remote start definitely works. I also have 2 FOBs that came with it when I bought brand new. As long as none of the remote start stuff got removed, you should have that capability.

Just to add, if you have any codes present or a faulty hood latch, the remote start will not work. All codes need to be cleared first. Not sure how to diagnose hood latch though.

      Post your UOA, (used oil analysis) here

      By Black02Silverado · Posted

      Here's the second UOA on my 22 Wrangler with the Ecodiesel. This has 5k miles on AMSOIL Signature Series DEO 5w-40. The first one was dealer installed oil, no clue what it was, the second is what AMSOIL recommended, European FS 5w-40, Most of the Ecodiesel world is showing great results using the European MS 5w-40, I figured I would see how the DEO works. This is using an Ecoguard oil filter. It's my understanding this engine likes to shed aluminum.  We will see. So far I don't think this is too bad.

      Disable DRL's

      By revmanii · Posted

      I'm surprised nobody seems to offer a solution like the start/stop device I put in my new truck. Remembers my setting when shutdown. And while it still starts up in start/stop, it stores/evaluates what mode it was in when shut down and will change it whithin a second or 2 of startup. It'd be nice to have something like that for the DRLs.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      I will be doing that for sure, but I need to solve who has/ where I can find a bidirectional scan tool that will support OBD 1.5. I'm kicking myself because I ebay'ed a Snap On MT2500 that I didn't think I'd ever need anymore. D'oh!! I'd rather not buy another, so I'll contact a few local shops to see if they have one and how much they'd want to do the procedure. I'd rather have the ability to do it myself... I wish there was a modern tool that could do it all, but I'd have no idea what to buy.   The theory with the pulled timing is that it mimics a rich condition. The delayed spark causes incomplete burn and the O2 sensor picks up low oxygen levels. That's interpreted as a rich condition so the PCM pulls fuel and that shows up in the deeply negative fuel trims.

      An ultra wealthy man had the most beautiful daughter. But, there was a problem. Everything she touched would melt in her hands. No matter what, Metal, Wood, Stone. Anything she touched would melt. She could not feed herself. Because of this, men were afraid of her. Nobody would dare marry her. Her father was despaired. What could he do to help his daughter? He consulted doctors, scientists and anybody who could solve this problem. Finally one of them said, "If your daughter touches one thing that does not melt in her hands, she will be cured." He was overjoyed and came up with a plan. The next day, he held a competition. Any man who could bring his daughter an object that would not melt in her hands would be given billions of dollars to marry her. Three extremely intelligent and handsome young men took up the challenge. The first brought a very heavy steel rod, But alas, when the she touched it, it completely melted in a matter of seconds. He sadly went away. The second brought a beautiful diamond, knowing diamonds were one of the hardest substance in the world and would not melt. But alas, once she held it in her hand, it melted. He too was sent away disappointed. So now, there was one left He was very nervous & sweating. He approached the daughter & said, “put your hand in my pants pocket and feel what is in there." She did exactly what he asked. She felt something very hard. She held it in her hand, squeezing it as hard as she could. It did not melt & remained extremely hard. Her father was overjoyed. Everybody was overjoyed. She was finally cured. Nothing never, ever melted in her hand again. They married and they both lived happily ever after, raising a wonderful family. Question: What was in the the groom’s pants pocket??? Answer below ↓ M&Ms of course! They melt in your mouth, not in your hand. What on earth were you thinking?
