My AT4 didn’t have the option so I ordered the parts and installed it.

All the parts were $287.58 including tax and shipping.

I did not install the knee bolster, I just used it as a template and cut a hole in the existing one with a utility knife.

They do light up too, the 4 blunt cuts out the bottom are for your connection. #5 is the roof beacon wire that is coiled near the 3rd brake light. (snowplow prep pkg)

Well the first picture is similar to the one in my truck. Just a different color. Well I added a 5 aux switch panel to it today. I didn’t want to cut into my dash just to add some switches. Plus I wan

Here is a notice on https://www.gmupfitter.com/ that came up immediately when I accessed the website.

 

 

UPDATES AND NEW INFORMATION
Upfitter Switch (9L7) Service Parts Retrofit Kits

It has recently discovered that there is a problem with the list of contents for the Upfitter SERVICE PARTS retrofit switch “kits” for vehicles that were not ordered or built with the 9L7 option. The discrepancy has been corrected and new part numbers are being generated.  The kits are temporarily on “hold” until they can be properly assembled with all the components required to perform the retrofit.  Stay tune for updates coming soon.  This situation does impact the kits that are shipped with the vehicle when the 9L7 option was ordered.

 

NEWLY RELEASED BULLETINS:

161 - Next Generation Body Style Snowplow Jumper Harness Install
165 - Fuel Filler Elbow Assembly `Service Body’ Installation MD
164 - Overhead Auxiliary (Upfitter) Switches (RPO UEH)
163 - Fuel Tank strategy and Auxiliary Tap Upfit interface MD
162 - Rear Chassis Electrical Harness Attachments – 3500 Chassis Cabs

VEHICLE SPEC. INFO.


Upfitters looking for various model option information, vehicle weights (both curb and available payload) should use the Online Order Guide accessible from Resource page of the GM Fleet website. Select the vehicle application and Click on `Model and Option Weights' located in the lower left corner on specific model pages. (https://www.gmfleet.com/guides)

 

I'm not sure how old the notice is as there was no date attached to it.

Here are the part numbers I ordered 12/28/2019.

The numbers could have changed but these were all the parts necessary to make the switches work.

84497098 Harness $86.95
84524205 Battery cable $39.01
84669070 F Block kit $38.05
84688687 Multi Switch $20.07
84487354 Knee Bolster $44.86 (this was black).

Hope these numbers are still valid...

So you already have the factory upfitter switches but are looking for more? Or where are your current switches?

If you don’t have the factory upfitters then the part numbers are posted above your post and you could order that and install them.

Sorry if I’m misunderstanding your post too :)

Post #79 in this thread has a picture of the upfitter switches (they mount in the knee bolster to the left of the steering wheel).

Post #94 has the part numbers I used in Late December). They arrived in the middle of February.

Thank you for all the replys , no there was no factory spare Auxiliary I will try to ordering new knee bolster  using those numbers u mentioned in February thanks as for the light bar mount it was a bit of cutting to get 20" in and I had to fab brackets because lack of room angle of feet .

it does sit in front of bottom luvers I would recommend a smaller bar.  Note: luvers must be working or causes a engine light found that out the hard way.  ( would not recommend blocking air if your a regular heavy hauler.)

Thanks again

My dealer said the same about my 2019 but these aux switches will go on any T1 truck. They just don’t want to do it or be responsible for it.

Those fit on my 2020 AT4 HD2500

It’s confusing but I saw the same message.

The upfitter switch plugged into the factory harness, the fuses fit exactly as they were supposed to, the knee panel looks like the perfect match.

I confess I did not use the knee bolster panel. I just measured where it should be, made a cardboard template and cut a hole in the existing knee bolster with a utility knife.

I zip tied the auxiliary fuse box to the mounting holes and saved a bunch of time since the process for taking off the knee bolster is time consuming.

Everything works as described....

      Do you keep your tires at full capacity? 80psi

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Are you using a weight distribution hitch system with your trailer as that alone can change the actual tire pressure requirements needed. It would prove interesting to see what the actual individual axle weights are on your truck when you are hooked up to the trailer. In fact when your hooked to the trailer, typically if anything unless it has a large capacity weight distribution system that is over cranked, often the weight on the front axle will be less when hooked up vs driving empty and certainly if one doesn't have a weight distribution hitch. Really the only times one may get up there with weight on the steer axle is if there was a snow plow mounted on the front or a motorcycle on a rack or with a very large jockey tank full of fuel at the front of the box that transfers a bit of its weight to the front axle.    And of course your tires carry more weight for a given tire pressure due to their size vs a stock sized tire so there is that to take into the equation as well.

      Great info here thank you. I just joined, we have a 2014 Silverado truck we bought about 4 years ago with less than 5,000 miles on it. It has approximately 24,000 on it now. It appears to have all the standard issues that people are talking about. Occasional charging problems especially using 110 volt, occasional blinking triangle where nothing will turn on when first starting the truck but it will reset itself if you wait 10 to 15 minutes. Noisy coupler between the flywheel and the generator. Our truck is speed limited to 74 mph, is there any way to change that? The latest issue we have been dealing with is when driving long distance on the highway at full speed the generator does not keep the batteries charged. The meter will go into the yellow/red border Zone for charge status and the yellow triangle will illuminate solid but the generator will not keep the battery charged, not sure why the controller doesn't tell the gas engine to increase RPM to increase generator output it usually stays well below 25 kilowatts even though the battery is discharging and I have to slow down the highway to 45 mph and eventually pull over and let the truck idle to charge the battery so I can continue driving at speed. Has anyone had this issue before or have any idea how to diagnosed it? When via Motors was around it they were very helpful at troubleshooting. This becomes much if the Terrain is hilly and you're towing a small trailer

      Tonneau cover that does not leak water

      By Z45 · Posted

      I have the GMC accessory (REV) cover installed by dealer. Ordered with the truck.  They did a very good install job, can't find a single issue. Some water gets in around the tailgate but no where else.  You can see daylight around the tailgate but that's not the covers fault.  Installation is means everything. Guys at my dealer were seasoned pros, not inexperienced here today good tomorrow types, like many dealers employ for these jobs.   I don't mind paying for a professional job.

      Like others have said, they will all leak. Mainly at the corners.   I have owned several and the best has been my current one. Revolver x4

      LCA bolts

      By calgator73 · Posted

      About 8 months after an alignment job by the dealer I started experiencing a pretty significant clunk in the front end on hard left hand turns usually parking lot speeds almost at lock.  Occasionally get the same on hard rights too.   Discovered that the lower control arm attachment bolts are TTY and only to be used for a single use. And then I found some evidence of a TSB that indicates you can over torque those fasteners to about 130 foot pounds.   Asked a local shop to investigate and they found 3 out of four bolts loose and retorqued.   I've ordered the MOOG    K100421 lower control arm bolt kit that is completely reusable and not TTY.    Is the 80 ft pounds a realistic number?  Anyone have experience with those bolts?
