Tried it again tonight and I'm still not getting the camera with the cargo light switch. Mines a 15, so the wires are a different color. Can anyone else with a 15 confirm these are the right places and that it works?217453007a750a0a85477a365e813776.jpg

I had a 15.  I had the diode jumper on the same connections.  With the wire, like above, your cargos will come on with reverse, AND your reverse will come on with your cargos.

@Viktorrocks15, I got him.  @bwlaqua, if you're referring to the one in the grey connector?  I had the same 3 on my 15, before it got totaled.  Grey01 - Grey08.  It allows your mirror puddle lights to come on with the interiors, so when you unlock/open any of your doors OR turn your interior lights (ALL) switch on - your puddle lights come on.

I thought it was something to do with that. I just wasnt 100% sure.

I tried it as well with my 15 3500 and had the same results. No camera but all three lights come on in reverse and with cargo button. Coastal Flash has an option for rear camera in motion programming but i only see it as an add on to their HMI programming.

I just tried doing this with some wire jumpers and it didnt work. The jumpers are probably just under .5" long. Im thinking they weren't long enough. Can anyone tell me what they used to get this to work? 

 

This is what I used, FWIW. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01EV47GI4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Does anyone know the minimum wire gauge that's needed for jumpers in this application?  I'm guessing there's very low amperage involved, but I'd want to be sure.

It's for the puddle lamp on the side mirror to come on when you first unlock your truck.

      Gas Prices

      So you're saying toss the baby out with the bathwater? @txab posted article was her take on how AI can be used to manipulate pricing as it already does and has been rebuked by the judiciasry in housing. How AI can be and is used to maximize refinery or even Amazon operations all of which are true but because she is who she is; that makes what she says about what is true, false? Is that something akin to Pre-justice aka prejudice?    Look, I'm first in line to approach all information with caution just because we live in a world where people like to lie about someone or something with such a straight face and in such volume that it makes digging to the truth wearisome. Meaning I understand the skepticisms but if I were to toss out everything a person is for a view they hold then my pool of people to draw wisdom from would be non-existent and I'd be forced to reinvent the wheel daily. Not practical.    "Be innocent as a dove but as cautious as a serpent."    Test each word. Every good lie is part truth or no one would believe it. Find the truth in it and reject what isn't.    On this one, AI is being used to do what has been done by hand for hundreds of years already but at such speed, the point of a computer, that it is more easily monetized. This one wasn't that hard a lift.    I wrote a few formulas in a Lotus 123 program decades ago, a series of linked Macros actually, that allowed a daily inventory to be turned into a running P&L and production plan. Something that took three departments a week to assemble now took the time it takes to input the 'daily changes' in inventory. Later that was ungraded to the more powerful Excel program an and integrated with bar code scanning, inventory to supply was done once per shift. It had a huge impact on production scheduling, Seamless interruption flexibility, inventory error reduction, raw materials cost effective utilization and scrap reduction. Huge improvement in the bottom line. I spent months on that and AI could have done it in minutes. So yes, it not only can be used, they would be foolish to not try. The legality, ethics and morality are not the domain of AI. Humans need to keep a reign on it.

      How to Tune 6L80 Silverado transmission

      By ballencd · Posted

      New to this forum.  Also looking to tune a 6L80 and trying to work out all the issues in my transmission swap.  I have a 6.2 diesel (1983) and have removed the TH-400 and about to put in a 6L80 with a TCM-2600 interface and don't have a clue what I doing after that.  Did you (Leatherneck/RAV3) get your slip resolved? I too hate to spend that kind of money on a tuner that hopefully I will not need too many times although from what steelerdude15 added about the HP Tuner being great for diagnostics would be a plus.  I am also from WNC but below you in Columbus.  Any helo would be greatly appreciated.

      Sounds like a smart reasonable person with common sense. Bill O’Riley never said he was just a journalist, by the way.

Video Platforms: She has contributed to PragerU, where she has hosted videos critiquing government mandates on vehicles. [1, 2, 3] Core Positions Anti-EV Mandates & Fuel Policies: Fix regularly critiques government subsidies and mandates for electric vehicles (EVs), framing them as impractical and burdensome to the average consumer. She advocates for consumer choice and supports traditional internal combustion engine vehicles. [1, 2, 3] Economic Analysis: Her commentary often emphasizes the impacts of fuel prices, inflation, and federal regulations on drivers. [1, 2, 3] Political Alignment: On her public channels, she actively supports deregulation, "drill baby drill" energy policies, and the removal of government restrictions on auto sales and manufacturing.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By SilveradoMarc · Posted

      Wouldn't swapping out the original AFM/DFM parts for a complete Delete Kit be the best route to go if one could afford to go that route?
