2016 Silverado Radio Swap

[Bbaselj]

Hi all,

 

So my work truck is a 2016 Silverado with no CarPlay/nav. My company had a wrecked Silverado that had CarPlay/Nav. I took the radio components from the wrecked on and tried too install into mine but it gave me a “Theft Detected” notification on the screen and had me locked out. I swapped back to the original parts and it’s working fine now.

 

My question is, am I able to get the new components to be comparable with my truck? Ive had someone tell me that a dealer can reset the theft code, can anyone confirm? Just trying to see my options here as I’d love to have CarPlay and everything else. 
 

TYIA!

Did you also swap the controlling unit that is inside the Glovebox compartment?

 

Im pretty sure you need to have that controlling unit reprogramed to work, you can search for 3rd party Audio/Infotainment technicians that so these swaps often

 

I believe he reason it shows "Theft Detected" is because the Controlling unit has to match the Chassis Computer on the truck or so on

Yes, I swapped the box behind the head unit and the one behind the glove boxes. Is reprogramming something a Chevy dealer would be able to do?

I dont know specifically, but it sound like it would be less expensive with an Audio/Infotainment shop

 

Or you can go ask your closest Chevy Dealer
