Hope this helps anyone who needs it. I have a 2019 silverado 1500 lt. Just ripped it apart and upgraded that shitty sound system. Radio is now a pioneer 2600 nex and the interior speakers are deaf bonce Arnold's also have a 4 channel behind the seats. After 10 hours of work it's finally done. This install is a ******! No space behind the radio you have to brake the plastic housing if you want to fit anything in. Also there are vents directly behind the housing so be careful not to mess those up. You will need a bypass part ( AXDIS-GMLN31) got this part online from audio jam in DE ask for Mike ran 150. This install cannot be done without the part as none of your dash will work. Heads up part goes under the passenger side of the dash and you will have to extend the wires up to the radio as they are not long enough. Speaker portion is simple didn't run into any issues. Now with the new body update the back seat is different. Their isnt much space as the new foam cusion is broken up in sections made it hard to mount amp. So make sure your amps are smaller and will fit in the groves or you will be shaving and sanding down foam like I did.

Do you have a complete parts list for this build? What radio kit did you use to mount it and where did you get those panels to fill the volume knobs and buttons?

Yeah I've still got it. I paid $175 for the box, wiring adapter, and shipping. The wiring was $45, so that leaves $135 for the box and shipping, is what I paid for it. I'd let it go for $120 shipped i

I have been searching and searching trying to find the wire colors for a 2021 Sierra AT4 non bose 8 inch.  I have a 6 channel audio control 6-1200 and want to run the speaker line inputs and then the return wire to the speakers.  One wire harness is grey and the other black. 

 

I ordered a loop harness from LLJ custom but it is a 2-3 week lead time and I can run the wires my myself if I just knew the colors.  I do not believe they are the same as what you all have posted because I looked at the wire harness at the rear doors and the colors are different.  Does anyone know how to locate the wire map for the connectors located under the passenger glove box for 2021?

I just registered so I could get in on this thread.  I really don't want to cut the factory wiring and like everyone else can't fine a harness.  However, I purchased this https://axxessinterfaces.com/product/AXEXH-GMLN31.  Just do  Google search for the model number and you'll find some places that sell it.  This is an extension for of one of Axxess' interfaces.  I'm hoping to be able to make a harness from it.  I will post updates as I go.

Should be the same pinout that is listed in this thread.  Mine is a 2021 trail boss, 8" with no amp and crutchfield sent me the same pinout listed above.

OK, I made the harness and got everything installed.  It works and sounds great.  The Axxess harness pinout matches my factory pinouts.  I have the teal and tan connectors.  I made a little document that details how I made the harness and routed it in the truck.  Its a little chaotic, but I think you'll get the picture.  Feel free to comment or let me know if I got something incorrect.  I can edit and repost.  Note:  If I had it to do all over again, I would have cut the wires on the Axxess harness shorter and soldered everything . . .

 

I used all kicker that Crutchfield sent me including the CXA360.4 amp and the Kicker sub and amp made for GM.  All in all it sounds so much better.  I just need a little more control than the dinky head unit EQ gives me to tune everything.  I would just add an LC7i, but the subwoofer uses speaker level inputs only as far as I can tell.

Great job Casey!

 

I will be using your write-up when I finally get around to doing my 2021 GMC Sierra SLE with the IOS stereo (black and grey connectors on stereo control module)

 

I’m having trouble locating the Axxess harness up here in Canada.  I found one on eBay.. and sent a request for a quote for shipping.. no reply 😞

 

Maybe I’ll stop by an actual stereo shop and ask if they have access to the Metra line of products and see if they can order the harness for me.

 

I have already replaced the speakers in the pickup, and it’s made the audio tolerable now, but the new speakers are designed to be used with an amp, and are nowhere near as efficient as the originals.

 

I plan to use the AudioControl D.6-1200 with built in DSP to tune and amplify the audio when I get the harness taken care of.  I have zero intention to cut any of the stock factory wires, so I’m willing to wait until I find the correct parts.

Used the frame of the original door speakers to construct adapters to mount the 6 1/2” circular speakers.  This way the original electrical connector can be retained, and everything fits precisely in place and couples perfectly to the door panel.  No cutting or hacking.

Did mine using https://lljcustoms.com/

Website had harness and LC7i - just plugs right in to existing, no splicing of wires.  Without the LC7i the stereo will throttle down the bass automatically so speakers won't blow.  The LC7i corrects this.  In mine I replaced the upper speakers with small Kenwood's, replaced the door speakers with Focal's, and added a 4 channel amp.  After tuning the stereo setup totally cranks with just the right amount of bass.

How do you have the LC7i set up?  I just bought one and am debating whether or not to sum the front and rear channels.  Also, it pushes channel 2 to the bass and I think I remember reading that is not the best channel to use for bass.  Thoughts?

This is my recent convo with AudioControl.  Still waiting on my LLJ Harness to finish my install but hope this helps as the LC4.800 I have has an LC7i "built in"

 

Message to AC:

Hi there,

Been diving into videos, threads and loads of reviews for putting together my humble build for my 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 Crew Cab AT4, non-Bose. I was hoping to get some help on summing, Accubass and hopefully an opinion on crossover freq.

My set up is as follows:

Audio Control LC4.800 Amp
Infinity Reference REF-9630cx, 6x9 components, front door/dash tweeter
Infinity Kappa 62ix, 6 1/2s coaxial, rear door
JL Audio ACP108LG-W3v3, powered 8 inch subwoofer
LLJ Customs Loopback Harness
Boatload of Dynamat

My questions are:

1 - Would you recommend summing the inputs or keeping them separate? Does turning summing on prevent the ability to use balance left/right/front/back?

 

AC:  Thank you for contacting AudioControl. The one thing worth knowing in this setup is that summing would remove your ability to fade between front and rear, but maintain your ability to balance from left to right.

2 - Accubass - Would you recommend using Accubass for both channels? Or one of them? Or none, since I am using a sub?  

 

AC:  My recommendation is to start with your front signal in the Front input, and rear signal in the Rear input, with no summing and with AccuBass turned off.

By default, the Line Output you use to send signal to the sub amp is listening to the Front input signal, and you can adjust AccuBass for this output even when the switches are set to "disable."

Test this out and see if the signal sounds the way you hope it would, and that the sub is playing all the low frequencies. If it sounds good -- perfect, you're done! If it seems like something is missing, try swapping the front and rear inputs on the amp and see if that resolves the problem. If it's still not sounding right, turn the Front/Rear Bus Sum on, and that should get things sounding good.

3 - I am planning to set my 6x9s at 60 hz (high pass), my 6 1/2s at 70 hz (high pass) and my sub 80 hz (low pass) for crossovers. Am I too all over the place or is this something I should tune by ear? Do these numbers look ok?

 

AC:  With regard to the crossovers, systems are conventionally set up with the door Highpass set to match the sub Lowpass. For example, if your door is going to play 70 Hz and up, the subwoofer should play 70Hz and below.

That being said, if it doesn't sound right to your ear, you can certainly set the crossovers the way you suggested. In fact, your idea for the crossover is very similar to how I have it set up in my car. I think little bit of overlap on the low end really improves the listening experience.

      Sugar Bears 2015 GMC Terrain SLE-2 2.4 AWD

      286,740 Mile Services   8/6/2026   New AC Compressor. Refrigerant oil and dye, evacuate and charge system.  New exhaust system from cat back.  New Iridium plugs plus replace #3 coil Repair/rewire headlamp wiring (passenger side) and replace all forward bulbs. Polish lenses of both assemblies.  Pull rear rotors, clean and adjust parking assembly. Inspect, clean and grease front calipers. Check pads and shoes.  4 wheel power bleed of brake system. Dot 4 Reset idle speed 50 rpm higher New Serpentine belt.    Will need new pads in the rear in about 5K more miles.    Tax Title and License out the door just short of a grand.    AC clutch had bitten the dust. 1 year warranty on the pick and save replacement. Thing will make a Polar Bear cry Uncle.  He spent quite some time on the wiring. It was in the harness and he does nothing half. I got off cheap. I have considerable more light down the road. Sylvania Silver Star replacements.  Gas seal between the porcelain and shell of plug #3 was blown, cooked the coil. That was the cold miss.  Love the new exhaust. I can sneak into the neighborhood again.  Nice to have a working parking brake again. Belle Tire never got it done. That was disappointing.    This was one of her bigger bills and still way cheaper than a payment even given the oil consumption. This thing cost me under a hundred a month in repairs and normal routine costs. What is my incentive to replace it? 🤔

      cam upgrade in CA

      By AidenVorpagel · Posted

      hello I recently bought a 2012 gmc 1500 with a 5.3 and have a AFM disabler on it I'm interested in doing a cam but I'm worried if I remove the AFM system I will fail smog does anyone have info if they are able to detect that or a work around to it (not talking about hot smogging) please let me know thank you

      Possible lifter tick after DOD delete

      By B14Sierra · Posted

      Update. I started chasing down my symptoms. Started first with pulling valve covers and looked at everything. Everything looked good and couldn't hear or feel anything different. Then a compression test. 240 psi or really close on each cylinder. I was worried I was a tooth off of timing. Not bad for an engine with 173,000. Granted I did put new heads on. I sprayed water around the injector area to see if I could hear a change. Nothing. I hooked up my new hp tuner which I should have done in the first place but I don't really know what I'm looking at just yet but am learning. I noticed the fuel trims were way off so that told me I have to have either a bad injector or exhaust leak. New injectors, so I did the shop vac on blower and in the tail pipe. Sprayed soapy water and found the exhaust flange on the drivers side was leaking. I didn't think it would be that considereding I pulled the heads and left the manifolds attached. I did have the transmission replaced not long ago. They must have not seated them properly but I guess I didn't notice. I put in new gaskets on both sides. Which by the way isn't a bad job but I had a hard time getting them to seal right. Took two attempts. Reset the fuel trims and the ticking is gone, engine runs smooth and acceleration has improved. Got to feel the real difference with that stage 1 cam. It's not that big of a difference but it does add a little more. It feels like how the truck should have been from the factory.

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Can it still be Assembled I?    Stribeck says that we need a certain amount of viscosity under conditions of load and velocity to prevent two surfaces of a know roughness from tearing each other asunder. And we have marketing trying to tell the masses that those two surfaced require less of that commodity due to more exact limits being placed on the same old clearances. We also know that there are limits to how hard something can before it becomes to brittle to be viable and to smooth to 'wet' the surface and that both of those conditions have been known and met since about the Second World War.    That viscosity value shook out at 10 centistokes at 212 F just under a hundred years ago.  Give this a look: [Anton Parr]     What is advertised is the Kinematic viscosity (mm2/s) or that which has been density adjusted but the value we are after is the dynamic viscosity (mPa.s) or true viscosity. You can see that this number is dependent on density thus base stock and temperature. You can also see that an SAE 30 doesn't reach that value in this example. However an SAE 30 that is at the upper end of the SAE 30 range; 12.5 cSt (mm2/s), might. 12.5 * .83 = 10.375 (mm2/s). If you could find an SAE 30 at the upper end these days.   Then there is the complication of viscosity modifiers or VII or VM, whatever you wish to call them. Polymers added to very thin base oils, perhaps 3 to 6 cP oils, that will meet the SAE *W30 spec at 'tested' shear rates and 100 C/212F  target temperature. So a polymer fortified base that is a fraction of the 10 cP requirement Stribeck insist upon.   This could be all well and good if those polymers didn't have two very problematic 'features'. They shear or loose viscosity both 1.) permanently and 2.) temporality. And they do both omitted in the advertised data with the distinct  purpose of deceiving the consumer of the actual operating state of the fluid. I've shown the example of Warren Oils COSTCO 10.91 cSt 5W30 formuation several times where the 100 C HTHS value is 6.9 cP!! That's the temporary shear down and with and SSI or shear stability index of 9.4 cSt. Note the intentional deception in using mixed units?    After a short while that 9.4 cSt oil has a viscosity corrected dynamic value of 7.8 cP. But as the SSI is still within the range of an SAE *W30 whose lower value is 9.3 cSt.    This allows them to continue to call this SAE 16 weight oil a 30 weight, the cake, and still meet the API requirements for fuel efficiency IMPROVEMENT mandated by the EPA. The eating of the cake. By the time you've worn out your motor doing the responsible thing by adhering to the warranty requirements, (the stick), you get deprived of the carrot, wear control. So sad, to bad.   So what can be done? Do I need actually say? [Anton Parr]       Even this must be monitored if the oil is on the low side and the VII an organic or you opt for a 0W40 with an even lighter base oil and more / higher MW VII. (Note the lower density of the 40 weight versus the SAE 30 mono-weight?)    There is another workaround. Temperature. An SAE *W30 run at a bulk temperature of between 180 and 195 F.    Being the belt and suspenders sort I am I do both. Run it cook and run it heavy.    In Part II I'll work the AW package.
