Hey guys,

 

I have a new 2020 Silverado 3500 WT Duramax. First day or two of driving, the Trip 1, Trip 2, and digital speedometer screens were present. Now they are nowhere to be found. I have the work truck trim, so base model odometer stem (no buttons on steering wheel other than cruise control). I scroll through all the available screens; air filter life, fuel filter life, brake pad life, tranny temp, etc. No trip or digital speedometer screens anywhere and I can't figure out how to get them back. I know they were there the first few days but now I'm just thinking I was crazy at this point. 

 

Thanks in advance for any help.

Does the button you push also twist?

 

I know on some vehicles you twist the knob to jump between different functions of the screen.

Yes - I believe in the WT trim the trip reset stem turns to change the menu and presses to reset/etc.

Yes it does twist. However, when I twist it, it goes through maybe like 6 or 7 screens, all of which are not the trip odometer or digital speedometer

Well one of those screens may have multiple things to view when you push the button. That's the only way I can think out. Or just pull out the owners manual to see how it functions.

I've done the drop down on every screen, held the stem for over a minute, pressed it a hundred times on every available screen and still there was nothing. Read both my Silverado and Duramax manual, no real help from there. Also called chevy customer service, they thought it was a very odd problem and I should take back to the dealer since it's new. Was hoping to figure it out before having to do that as the dealer I bought from is over 2 hours from my home.

Did you get this issue figured out? I have the same issue on a 2020 3500 work trim diesel pickup. 

Same exact problem here as well. 2020 3500 Duramax WT. Day one the digital speedometer and trip meters were on there, before vanishing altogether the next. Makes no sense.

Did anyone figure it out because my dad is having the same problem with his truck but since its pretty new i havent seen any youtube videos or anywhere else that explains about how to get that menu back. We have even looked through the menu, but we cant seem to find anything about ti. It only asks whether it is the denali or not. My dads truck doesnt have any buttons on the right of the steering wheel wither.

I still have had no luck getting the digital speedometer or trip odometers back. Hoping Mojoe7 maybe had success. Thinking it’ll have to go back to a dealer. With only 1100 miles, a little early to be having things like this go wrong!!

Had to reschedule for today. So I brought my 2020 Duramax in and finally got this resolved. At first they didn’t believe me there was any issue with the DIC, after I repeatedly stated that those few things were missing (digital speedometer, trip meters, miles of fuel until empty, etc). I showed their mechanic that those things were missing. He hooked up his diagnostic computer to my truck and scanned it. Then he played around with the menu selector pin for a bit, still confused. So the next thing to check were fuses. He popped the fuse box cover over on the passenger side below the glove box. I don’t know for sure which they were, but he popped a couple of fuses out, put them back in and boom. That’s what fixed it. I now have everything back on my dashboard DIC screen. He was just as surprised as me that’s all it took. So for anyone else having the same issue, pop the fuses out for the dashboard (not sure what they were labeled) and put them back in. Apparently that’s the fix...

    • Howdy folks,   Recently I pulled a heated steering wheel and clock spring out of a 2015 Sierra All Terrain (part numbers coming soon - will have to disassemble), and just installed it on my 2016 Sierra WT (as base model as it gets).   On install, I noticed that I’m missing the connector often tucked behind the dash for the heating element.     No problem… or so I thought.   I used an “Add-A-Fuse” at my heated steering wheel fuse location, which has voltage, but no wires. I ran it to the positive of the heated steering wheel (Violet/White), and took black to ground.   Hooked up the battery, turned the truck on - no heated steering wheel. No button backlights. Was pleased to see that my cruise control was working though.   Read a post suggesting reversing polarity, so I gave it a shot. Violet and White to ground, Black to power.    Aha! Heat! But I seemingly can’t turn it off AND still no backlights on any of the buttons.    Checked all fuses, everything is still in good order. I’m stumped.   Does anyone have any insight? If so, please share!
    • I'm about 1800 miles into my last oil change, and yesterday a message appeared saying oil life was at 77%. Not sure why it popped up but I think all of these electronics could be susceptible to solar flares or somesuch. I change my oil right at 3K each time, and that was the first time in 10870 miles that message came up. Strange thing is that it showed on the screen at all since I don't drive with that sort of info displayed on the DIC.

    • Checked the pads today and there's plenty of meat on them. If the message keeps coming up, I'll just answer YES that the pads were replaced and wait for the squeal.
