Just an FYI.  I ordered this camera.  I talked to their customer service and they said this will complete the circuit on the surround vision system without having to take the camera out of the tailgate.

Did you get this camera? And if so, did it work as said? Can you give your description of it and evaluation?

 

Thanks, Morgan

I did. It's basically the exact same camera that's in the tailgate, wiring and all. It comes with an enclosure that you can mount anywhere. I have it on my camper. 100% recommend. Very easy install and works perfectly.

Does it plug into the disconnect that was under the truck or can it also plug into the dual plugs that are in the bed near the tailgate? It's hard to see in the picture.

Thanks

It plugs into the disconnected tailgate camera port. No way for it to plug into the ports on the bumper.

Well, I heard from Chevy. They sent it to their engineers. They said it was designed that way. Time to get new engineers. There was no recourse. They don't understand how may people need to remove the tailgate as they were too busy celebrating all the new cameras they designed. Pretty sad. Didn't even say they would look into it. Maybe when they start losing sales and getting more complaints?

How do you like that reese hitch extension? Does it hold up very well or in your opinion is the superhitch a better option? Trying to decide on which one for my 2020. Thanks

I saw on this forum somewhere that a guy had researched and found the wiring harness that would plug in where the camera and tailgate lock controls plug into. He posted a pic of harness and part #. Now I can't find it and want to order one.

You don’t need a dummy plug or harness just to protect the connector. It is quite easy to bag the connector to protect it.     You also can get just a camera cable separately to hook up a replacement for the tailgate camera. I bought a gm tailgate camera of the same part number for $90, made an enclosure and installed it on the back of my camper. I bought my FAKRA cable from Pasternack.com for around $30.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By KARNUT · Posted

      We live in a world where the average person expects more. People say wages and our needs are farther apart. My first new home had 3 bedrooms and one bedroom. My first car and truck had what would be considered a stripped or work vehicle. In my neighborhood back then there were more homes like that and cars too. Middle managers and second home buyers worked their way up to the fancy houses and cars. Car loans were 3 years. GM had different models of cars for different income levels. The cars were pretty much the same size if you wanted a big vehicle. The nameplate designated the opulence. Chevy, Pontiac, Buick, Oldsmobile and Cadillac.  To be fair some of the cost is government mandated. We can’t blame them for giving us what people will pay for. Careful advertising steering people towards more profitable SUVs and trucks. As I learned recently a minivan is a cheaper more efficient form of transportation. Certainly easier to live with. Somebody realized the profit margin wasn’t as big and gave it a soccer mom label. So it lost its coolness. They’re making it the masses are buying it. You hit your hand with a hammer you can’t blame the hammer.

      Electrical /Immobilizer Data- Battery Voltage (V) Test malfunction

      By Aussie2500HD · Posted

      Hi All, I’m In need of advice regarding a scan result on my 2023 Silverado HD.  The Sensor Supply voltage relay states ON But…. the following 3 tests show Malfunction. Sensor supply voltage relay control circuit HIGH voltage Test status- Malfunction Sensor supply voltage relay control circuit LOW voltage Test status- Malfunction Sensor supply voltage relay control circuit OPEN test status - Malfunction. No DTC codes are stored. No DIC Lights. Remote Key Fob has been giving a few issues, namely Vehicle will not respond to an Open/Lock command from the key fob. New batteries installed to FOB made no difference, plus on one occasion recently the vehicle unlocked using the Fob, the vehicle started normally via the push button, then a random warning came up on the DIC stating the Remote Key was not found, all this while the key was located next to the central cup holders. Does anyone have any input or advice regarding this scenario? TIA

      I agree, simplicity and reliability matter more as vehicles get more complicated. A V8 work truck option with fewer electronic features and a stronger warranty would definitely appeal to a lot of buyers who use their trucks for real work. Customizing it with trusted outfitters is often the best way to get exactly what you need

      2026 Sierra 1500 Denali - Sound upgrade?

      By artistemorbidity · Posted

      I’ve heard similar complaints from newer vehicles where the factory “premium” systems don’t always live up to expectations. A good installer should be able to improve the sound without turning it into a bass-heavy setup. I’d look into upgrading the front speakers, adding a quality DSP amplifier, and possibly improving sound deadening first—those changes usually make a much bigger difference than just adding a subwoofer. Hopefully someone local can recommend a reputable installer in the Las Vegas/St. George area.
