I want to install the rearview camera into my 2015 1500, but I can't afford the programmer at the moment. Was hoping one of you guys has it laying around and wouldn't mind letting go of it. I'm barely able to afford the 300 bucks for the camera/tailgate handle itself, but that's obviously useless without the programmer that infotainment charges 200 bucks for. 

 

Any Help?

There are many aftermarket systems that are much less expensive and do a great job.  I know it is preferable to go OEM and use the existing monitor but if money is tight they are worth considering. .  I wanted a rear vision camera for my travel trailer and struggled with the same issue.  I ended up with a seven inch monitor on my dash with three wireless cameras for the kind of money you are suggesting.  It will serve as a dash cam, front parking assist, and trailer rear-view. I currently just use it like a dash mounted rear-view mirror when pulling my travel trailer.  It works well and my investment will not have to stay with the truck when I sell.  The monitor on the dash is bothersome for the first 5 minutes but now an integral part of the controls!

We can add that for you for $50. Only caveat is you'd need to ship your module to us.

I'd love to try. Do u not have to leave it in? Do you just plug it in and reprogram your truck then unplug it? I read on infotainment website that the same programmer is used for 2014 & 2015 Silverado's so it should work for mine.

Do you still have it? I would like to buy it and try it on my Silverado

      I did the new thermostat after doing a 'flip' for a year. Runs as cool one way as the other in the summer but in the winter there is a bit of a floor. Yellow with the new 70 C thermostat. My data over the life of the unit to date. Still need more cooler. Anyway that floor helped both winter fuel economy and shift quality in the winter. I found it a good balance.

      Evan Williams Bottled in Bond   So pouring the last of a bottle of Evan Williams Black label last night I set off the the state store for a refill only to be denied the by an empty shelf. Rats.    What the did have was a bottle of Evan Williams Bottled in Bond. 100 proof. Hum, a few bucks more but a known distiller. Lets have a swing at it. ( I have before )    Cracked it open and pour a serving over ice. Hum.... more heat, yes. More alcohol naturally. But the barreling not the proof brings the taste and this one came up short.    Oh is was familiar but the heat ran the barrel over like a Peterbilt runs over a squirrel. Could use a heavier toasting of the oak me thinks or perhaps a longer barreling. Who knows. But what I can say is ice or a water back isn't the answer. What kills one kills them both. Sad. It is a pleasant drink....if you have little to compare it to.

      Bridgestone vs Goodyear tires?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      I've had exactly one set of Bridgestone. Lasted five year and 125,000 miles and had I known better 15oK would have been a cake walk. I would have bought a like set had they not tripled in price since the first set. I removed them at said mileage with 5/32" remaining in dead even wear all four. They were fuel efficient, quite, comfortable and predictable.    Early on I got a very good alignment checked at least once a year, sometimes twice; kept the tires properly inflated, balanced and rotated. And I've found that many a tire issue can be avoided with great maintenance practices. Lot's of tire dealers will do rotation and balance (simple) for free for as long as you own the tire they sold you so no excuse not to.    Bead prep, alloy integrity and stem health have a huge impact on inflation stability. There are more mountings done poorly that perfectly. Finding a good tire guy is gold and as important as finding a tire you like.    That 3X price increase now two sets of "other tires' later is starting look like a bargain.      Bad maintenance kills more tires than bad tires.

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

      Atlas, you kill me As aggravating as a project like this can be you have been unable to hide your fascination with learning and using that angst against this beast like a Ninjitsu Master. It amuses you, admit it now.      BTW, love your writing style. 😉

      I gotta say, I'm enjoying your narration. The troubles you've been having are amusing as you describe them. It's good to see that you're finally getting some satisfaction out the old beast though.
