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.....

      Breaking News!    I'm going to tell you that I'm going to tell you.  Then I'm going to tell you what I'm going to tell you.  Then I'm going to tell you.  Then I'm going to tell you what I told  you.  Then I'm going to tell you what I'm about to tell you on the other side of the break.  Then we're going to break. Then I'm not going to tell you what I told you I was going to tell you.  But I'll tell you something else that is Breaking News just coming to the desk that everyone reported on yesterday.  Then I'll tease a human interest telling I'll get to on the other side of a larger break. Then I'll tell you one item in 20 seconds and go back to an even longer break. Longest break of the night.  Then I'll tell you a fluff piece that takes 10 seconds and sign off into a three minute break while you wait for the next 30 minutes of rinse and repeat on the local news.    In al you'll get about 12 minutes of something, 5 minutes of which is worth hearing in a 30 minute show and 18 minutes of advertising at a sound level twice as loud as the news.    Of course you can switch to cable news and hear 12 different people tell the same four stories in much the same format as the Network News for 20 hours of which the majority will be advertising.  And four hours of late night Specials about things you wonder why you stayed up to listen to. Half of which will be repeats.....   OR you can go for a drive

      Audio Dampening and quiet

      By Afennell19 · Posted

      Did you ever figure this out? My 2022 Trail Boss, and now my 2026 LT did this from time to time.  I believe it was more connected to Android Auto and my phone being the cause. Maybe try going for a drive, sans cell phone.... and see if it happens?

      2026 Sierra 1500 Denali - Sound upgrade?

      By Afennell19 · Posted

      I have a 2026 Silverado LT, the non bose as well.  Upgrading the door speakers is pretty straightforward. You could honestly go to walmart, or Auto Zone/ O Reilly and get a set of 6x9s for the front, and 6.5s for the rear. You do also have to get some adapters for each, but they are like $10 a pair on Amazon. Then some plug and play harnesses that are about $10 a pair on Amazon as well.  And I would also suggest a 10 pack of the Amazon Basics sound deadening. Slap that all around the speakers and on the open metal of the inside of the door. And your golden.   I am currently doing this with my Silverado. Although I am having a bit of trouble because I am snooby I guess and bought some Alpine S2 S69c's which are 2 way components and I am having to wire from the door up to the dash....  Having never installed speakers before, its taking me just a bit to get everything correct. But if you dont buy expensive component speakers, and just some $40-$50 door speakers. You will DRASTICALLY improve the sound over these stock paper cone junk speakers. I thought my Silverado had an issue with the radio/ sound for a while.  Come to find out.  The stock speakers are just THAT SH*TTY   I cannot wait to have some decent sound in the truck   What did you end up doing?

      Parking Brake - Automatic Engagement Questions

      By newdude · Posted

      Its all automatic based on yaw sensor data.  If enough incline is detected, it engages.   My recommendation though would be to disengage it before driving off and not let it auto disengage by touching the gas pedal.  The HD trucks use the same setup as prior years, the drum in hat park brake.  But now with an electric actuator.  If you drive off repeatedly over time, it can torque the park brake shoes and can also prematurely wear them out.           Electric console shift will set the park brake on flat ground too.  Pretty sure they've got it programmed to activate every time.
