Has anyone added the 110V outlet to there interior and if so how difficult. I have a 2019 RST Z71 and it does not have it and I would like to add it. I don't know if behind the blank plate if the wiring is there or not but if anyone could add some insight I would greatly appreciate it.

Simple answer. It can't be done with factory hardware.

I took that trip and found that if it's not ordered from the factory, it can't be upgraded.

I plan on doing this in mine as well, used it often in my 15.
Im going to get a good inverter and run a new primary wire from the battery (will be useful in the future as well) then connect to the factory blank with some diy.
You could most likely make 3 of your own for what the dealer wants.

Ps I believe this has been covered multiple times.

Used it for what. I just ordered a 2020 that has that inside plug. So I'm asking what would I use it for?

Everything from a crock pot to keep food warm traveling to parties, to chargers for tools. It even ran the combustion blower for my stoker stove in a pinch once when I lost power.
Iirc it was nowhere near 15 amps, couldn't run high draw items.

The panel on my 2019 Silverado 1500 RST can be pried off and voila! Two plugs are attached to the back of it. They fit perfectly into an OE electric power outlet I bought to begin a power outlet project. Car companies put in these simple inexpensive harness pigtails to make it easier for their assemblers at the plant. Now the problem presented is what/where do these go to behind the dash? The easy answer would probably be to analyze the wire color codes for the vehicle and trace them back to somewhere.

Yes there are wires there. I believe there are even wires that run to the rear for the bed plug as well. The inverter is mounted on the back wall of the cab behind the seat. However just hooking things up won't make it work like from the factory.

      2018 Silverado Console USB Port Not Working

      By Tbhats2130 · Posted

      My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.

      The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.

      OCI, not when but why?

      I have four that read by the dash 8 to 10% better than miles/pump calculations and I have one that is spot on.
