There were two plugs mentioned and shown in pics on page 2.  The plug JoeD49 asked about (circled in the pic he posted above) is for the trailer TPMS receiver.  There is a round plug behind the bumper

Yes, possibly. Would be the male version of the one on the bottom.

On a side note, I do have this weird green round plug back behind the trailer plugs... not sure what that is for.

Does your truck have trailer view camera option?

As mentioned earlier, might be the Trailer Tire Pressure sensor....  I have 2 boxes plugged in back there....

I’m still trying to figure out how GM is using made in China, Mexico and now just spotted made in UK. Lol, our trucks have become the Melting Pots

I case anyone is wondering, the part from UK, on the right, is indeed the TPMS sensor for the trailer.  The China made one across the middle is the keyless remote entry antenna.....  

 

Google is cool.

Nope  - Could that be a camera connection?

 

I would say it is the coax for the trailer view.

Confirmed that is the trailer camera plug.  I bought the trailer camera port & plugged it in, hoping the dealer could program it to work, but apparently even though the wiring is there, dealer can not add the camera package after the fact...pretty disappointing.

Dealer needs to use the proper words... they say "cannot" what they really mean is "don't want to"   :)

 

This is interesting - so if they provided the wire for the trailer camera, then they probably have the wiring in the front doors/mirrors for the side view cameras. just need to figure out is WAMS or somebody can re-program for us :)

haha correct... They did say they technically could, though it would require an entire new radio & wiring harness, video module, etc...  I was pretty interested in having them add this so i pushed them for a quote & they said it could be 3 - 5 thousand dollars!  long story short, get the $ 295 trailer camera package when ordering the truck if you want these features...

 

And yes, i took my mirrors apart to change the caps to colour matched & looks like the plug is in the mirror as well, at least on my truck..

I'm willing to bet a lot of that is smoke and mirrors (pun sort of intended) - If one end of the wiring is there, why wouldn't the other end be there? :)  I think it is purely a SW change....

 

The one wire that is probably *not* there on the SLT is the front Camera wire - it is my understanding that the unit can only support 3 camera - 2 sides/trailer....  

 

Now if that wire is there, I would totally be willing to give up the trailer connection for the front view.....

      By Sdid · Posted

Put in neutral step on gas little shake then put in gear and gose.  Shut truck off start .. ok now at stop light stop truck after a few seconds feel a little kick if that doesn’t happen stuck in 3/4 gear shut truck off wait few seconds and start usually ok again. If you down shift manually ok as long as you get into 1st before stop. If not it kicks . I WANT A NEW TRANSMISSION. Now I want a new truck it just hit 80,000 IDK IF ILL BUY CHEVY CAUSE THEY STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM AND REFUSE TO RECALL . Oh I’ve changed the fluid and filter 3 times now. And yes used mobile 1 not ac/delco cause it’s not meeting the requirements that mobile is did use ac/delco filter

      Of course refrain from political debate but I myself have very dismal hope for what is all going on up here every where we turn so I nodded my head when I saw this joke.

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

      By Atlas · Posted

      While waiting for parts I have been working on installing the AC compressor, new accumulator, and orifice tube. Also changed out the high side ball valve (original). The orifice tube that was in there wasn't too bad. Slightly dirty, a little bit of junk, but not blocked. Glad I changed it out.   The accumulator, which should have been a 5 minute job, may have just burned $50. Put some PAG in it, wrote the date and mileage on the side, fresh o-rings and gooey'd up the threads and rings with Nylog. Got everything connected and snugged and was going to vacuum down the system, and....   My manifold gauge won't fit on the port. It's not an R12 service port. It LOOKS like an R134 service port but the diameter is a hair too large. There's a sticker on the accumulator that says it's designed to be used with R12 and R134a systems only. So it's not R1234yf. Even if I reduced the diameter slightly with a file, the shoulder on the port is too large so the quick-connect valve won't lock on. I'm stumped. It's going back, and 50/50 on if they'll give me a refund.   Also, I did a fuel pressure test.... Key on, the gauge spikes to about 60psi and quickly bleeds off, like 2psi per second. The fuel isn't going into the plenum, no smell, starts fine, so I'm guessing there's a bad check valve in the pump and the fuel is just draining back into the tank. oh, hell. But, it shouldn't be a problem, pump primes just fine and the truck starts right up. It just means I can't really ever use fuel pressure to verify a leak at the injector or intake.

      SERCICE ESC message?

      By No F-bdy Bs · Posted

      Got this yesterday out of nowhere. Truck is a 25',6.6 gasser with 8k miles.  Only semi anomaly is that the truck had been sitting, uncranked for 6 days. Elec Stability Control showed immediately upon cranking, not while driving. No drivability issues, just the message. Battery didn't seem to be weak when cranking over.  I drove it, killed it, let it sit a few hrs with no avail.  Truck is 100% stock. No damage.
