Hello,

 

I have the HD camera in back with two views (one straight down at the hitch and the normal one looking straight back.  While driving and selecting the rear view camera for a quick view, I am always stuck with looking at the camera pointing straight down at the hitch.  I can't seem to successfully select the camera looking straight back while moving forward for a quick look.  What am I doing wrong?

Thats the way it is. The hitch view will come up. Now if you have the trailering package on a 2020 model, different story.

Hmmm, somehow I was able to get the rear view camera to come up while moving once, but haven't been able to do so since.  Maybe the system has to detect that a trailer is hooked up....

I find that view helpful when pulling through ba parking spot I hit the camera and keep pulling forward till I just cross the yellow line

I’m able to get the rear camera to come up while driving by bringing up the main menu (home button?)and there is a selection for camera (possibly need to scroll right to see it) and the rear camera pops up while driving. Now I just have a LT TB with just the back up camera on the tailgate so I’m sure others have other options.

I was able to do this once as well, but can no longer do so.  All I get now if the camera facing down at the hitch.  The other options are grayed out.

Mine allows me to do this in drive, but I have to be at a stop (i.e. at a light). If my truck is moving, I only get the hitch.

My truck shows the normal rear view while in motion. 

 

Maybe it is model and option specific that dictates the view of the camera?

I can view both while moving. I can switch between the hitch view and the rear view in motion for 8 seconds at a time. I get front view, rear bed view, tailgate rear and hitch.

Yeah I have the trailering  package and my son loves to use it in motion to see "who's at our six" Must be a difference in the HD and non HD camera package.

I wish it was a longer time (15-20 secs would be good) but I’m happy they provided some access while in motion.

It's kinda like that annoying warning that pops up and you have to hit ok. The timer is so you don't focus on whats behind you while running into whats in front of you.

      AFM Experience

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Question @diyer2 on this line if you please. Are you saying the shudder is the system turning on and off at the frequency of the shudder? Guess I'm asking if you are saying you have seen it do this with the bi-direction scan tool in graph mode? If so have you been able to discern the 'trigger'. Something is telling to cycle rapidly.    My truck just started doing this recently. 197K on the clock. My response has been M5 anything under 55 mph. I treat it like a lugging stick shift. Gear down and let it spin a bit. Engauge M5, then tow mode and then M6 lets the trans stay in 5th but the AFM is active. Smooth like Skippy.    My thought was that as a machine ages the friction gets lower and as the system is load based, the lower friction would allow it to turn on at ever lower rpm until it reaches the lugging point. And yes I am ignorant of any minimum rpm requirement for the system. If you know that would be useful information.    As you know I run a Scan-Gauge II which allows me to watch the On/Off of the signal to the VLOM. While in the shudder mode I'm not seeing is cycle at that frequency or at all for that matter outside the triggers @newdude posted a few years back. Now is it possible that the refresh rate isn't fast enough to catch it? Maybe. It is why I asked my first question about graphing and trigging parameter.     As we have observed from members here the failure point is all over the map miles wise as you note yourself in your opening post. That by itself begs a few questions like fellows that comment on these lifters failing even after the system has been disabled. Long after. 😬   https://www.enginelabs.com/news/tech-tips-replacing-ls-active-fuel-management-lifters-with-melling/   The Gen5 lifters operate the same as the LS versions. In fact they are the same lifter.    https://www.enginelabs.com/tech-stories/sorting-out-gen-v-lt-lifter-failure-with-a-simple-valvetrain-fix/

      14-18 Sierra 1500 Heated Steering Wheel Help

      By SwitchBladeSierra · Posted

      UPDATE 2: Steering wheel control backlights and control of the cluster can supposedly be achieved by adding a wire to pin 20 of the cluster and tapping it to pin 2 of the main clock spring harness. I'm going to give it a shot - will update

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By newdude · Posted

      GM Global A pickups 2019-2022 can do OTA programming for the radio.  GM VIP (GM Global B) can do OTAs for almost every module on board.  So a 2022.5 and newer pickup can do OTAs for recalls like the 2.7 fuel flow recall.  EVs get OTAs that improve one pedal driving, radio issues, HVAC issues, updated battery management software, etc.     So age of the vehicle/what GM electrical platform its on will alter what amount of updates can be pushed on OTAs.

      Upgrade to a 2026 AT4 with the 3.0L Duramax

      By Blade8971 · Posted

      Thank You.   So far my new ride is making me look like a genius for going with the 3.0L, as my first fuel refill occurred over three weeks from when I took delivery.  This engine combination is very amazing.  So far no issues and had not done a regen yet.

      Correct way to service 2024 l8t allison trans?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I am curious as to how much fluid you put back in the transmission ( assuming you had replaced the filter to compare to my findings ) and then went through the process of warming up the trans before pulling the check plug to drain out the excess and if you measured how much came back out.    I just found it surprising that some claimed a certain amount less fluid being put in and then draining some back out. The attitude of the truck as per if the surface is level and how the trucks stance is would make quite a difference since the check plug is right at the front of the transmission.
