what is the build code for the roof marker lights?

can somebody that has them, post a pic of your window sticker please?

 

I am looking at a truck that is in transit still and I am trying to determine if it has roof marker lights. If so, they are a deal breaker. 

 

TIA

Unlike previous years the 2020 HD’s have roof marker lights as standard equipment 

 

Nevermind, that statement only applies to the GMC, you can still get the Chevy without

They are optional equipment on BOTH Chevrolet and GMC.  Denali and all duallies (Chevy and GMC) they are standard equipment.  

 

Option code is U01

 

Trucks with emissions code YF5 California state emissions requirements you can't get the roof lamps on those.  

 

Why are they a deal breaker?  The OE ones rarely leak compared to all the aftermarket ones out there.

Never owned a pickup without them... even my older F-150s had the factory units.

this makes sense. the particular truck I am looking at, is a 3500 SRW Denail with California emissions. I don't see them listed anywhere on the build sheet or the generic window sticker on the website.

also, I cannot chose them as an option on the GMC website, but I can on the Chevy

 

I don't like them, so I don't want them

We don't call them clearance lights anymore?

I do, but  the order guide calls them roof lamps.

what is the purpose of them anyway?

Originally they (and still are) were mandated by the government to alert other drivers that a larger vehicle was approaching.  I believe if the truck is over 80” wide they are required.  They expanded to smaller vehicles because many, including me, think they look pretty cool.  When I look at an HD without them it almost seems like something is missing..

so why with Cali emissions you get NO clearance lights ?

AFAIK, it's Cali regs. 

 

In any case, if Cali emissions, only the DRW trucks get the roof lights.

California, such a beautiful state, mountains, ocean coasts, desert landscapes, more mountains,

 

 

 

 

 

 

And then the political atmosphere suffocates and kills you, nice.

Thank you!  Now I know that I am not crazy!  I saw a Denali SRW the other day without roof lamps and was just dumbfounded (here in CO), it must have been a Cali truck.  At least we can spot them coming

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
