I apologize in advance if this info is in a thread but after looking through 463 threads out of 5674 in the search I’m taking a shortcut.  

Would someone please enlighten me as to which fuse, and where it’s located, controls the LED courtesy light inside the floor center console on a 2015 Silverado 1500. The light which comes on when the lid is open quit working and I’m trying to track down which fuse protects it. I’ve looked online and in the owners manual to no avail. I’m not seeing a blown fuse by visual inspection and can’t figure it out.  If you know, I’d sure appreciate a heads up. Thanks

Question, do all of the accessory's still work?

 

USB ports, SD slot, "cigarette lighter" outlet? Both in where the light is and under the dash.

 

Pretty sure the light would be tied into a fuse that controls many things.

 

Good looking pooch!

Thanks for helping. 

That’s the thing.  The USB port in the console works. As far as I can tell it’s just the LED that doesn’t work. I don’t think that the LED would have exhausted it’s life, I don’t drive around with the lid open. 

I thought it may be the switch but would like to start at the fuse and work back. 

The “pooch” is my boy. He’s a good one. Always a smiling face and a wagging butt when I come home. ?

Everything is working except the LED. I installed the console with pgamboa’s harness. Everything worked fine then the light stopped working.

Have you reached out to pgamboa to see if he knows?

 

Lights do burn out, even LED's. Ask him if he knows of a replacement bulb, or if it is possible to replace.

 

What type of dog is he?

Yes, I tried reaching out to Phil but no answer. I haven’t taken the console apart to try and trace the wiring back. I was hoping not to have to do that. I tried the LED and it works when powered with an alternate 12v source. 

 

Charleys’ a 23lb Cairn terrier that thinks he’s a Great Dane. He’s a fearless sweetheart.

Sorry, that is all I have for ideas.

The pic is when he was a pup. He’s grown into his ears.  That’s a good looking group you have. Those are the size Charley likes to hang with. 

Ill keep putzing around till I figure it out. If I determine the fuse I’ll post it. Take care.

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.

      Rattle in the rear!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.

      Do you have access to BP fuels? Some stations have Silver 91 E-0 priced the same as their 93 E-10.  There is a local Marathon with 90 alky free for $6 a gallon but I go down the road to BP for $5-ish. They also have a 100 E-0 but that stuff is $10 a pop.
