Has anyone replaced the front halogen turn signal bulbs on their 19's yet?  I've replaced the backup and license plate halogens with LED's already, but I'm wondering about the front turn signals and if resistors would be necessary to avoid the hyper flash. 

I believe the rear lights are LED already so do you think the computer would complain if LED's were added to the front without the resistors?

I thought all were LED. I believe mine is.

None of the front turn signal bulbs are led.

They are on High Country and SLT & Up Sierra. The rest of us have to make do with the dumb little bulb down there.

 

I’m 99% sure swapping it to LED without a load resistor would cause hyper-flash but haven’t had a chance to try it yet.

I tried with some inexspensive bulbs from Ebay for my 2021 RST and I experianced Hyper Flash after 3 cycles and got a error message on the DIC.  heres the ones I tried so dont waste your $

Get the Lasfits. I used them for a couple years, no issues.

2020 LT Trail Boss has halogens for the backup, front turn signal and license plate lights.  I replaced them all with these.  4 months with no issues so far.  The backup lights are freaking amazing.  SUPER bright.

I have the Lasfits. Seem to be working fine. Attached pic of stock (passenger side) versus Lasfit doesn't do them justice. No hyper flash, I believe they have the resistor (or some sort of magic) built in. Have had to add resistor to wiring in the past. Much nicer to have it right in the bulb.

Try the backup/reverse bulbs.  They are amazing!

II just put them in my 2019 LT and I am getting the hyperflash and error message on my info screen. Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong?

That’s odd. Mine were plug and play, no issues. Only time I get a hyper flash is if I’m sitting at a really long traffic light with my turn signal on. Turn my blinker of, wait a couple seconds, turn it back on, all is fine.

      Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
