Ordered these factory mirrors and dealer had to return them as they will not fit my 2021 GMC Sierra AT4. They said my RPO is DEZ and these will only work for RPO DLF.  anyone aware of any other tow mirrors other than the extensions? I am also on waiting list from boost auto parts.

I just came to the dealership after installing these mirrors and harnesses only to find out they cannot flash it to work. Truck originally had blind spot monitors, so they say that’s why it will not work. Turn signals and power mirror portion works so I may just deal with check engine light. Don’t really care about spot lamps not working but the remote start stopped working so that may be a deal breaker for me. 2021 Sierra Elevation 3.0

I've searched around here a bit and didn't find an answer.  Does anyone know if the mounting base for the tow mirrors on the HD trucks is the same as the 1500's?  Looking on gmpartsdirect.com there are several variations of the tow mirrors for the Sierra 2500 HD - specifically blind spot, without surround view.  Sounds like exactly what I need.  

 

Has anyone explored this method for getting tow mirrors on the non-technology package 1500's?

I am currently wondering the same about whether 2500 mirror will work on a 1500. So far I've been told no, doors are different.

I just bought the tow mirror kit and harnesses from local dealer. Had them program bcm after I installed it. Everything works great.

      If there are updates/fixes you want, you could pay to have the updates applied by the dealer.

      No Software Updates - Old Build

      By DaleB · Posted

      Hi all - my current truck is a 2022.5 1500 High Country 3.0. I bought the truck used last year. After doing some digging, I noticed that my truck's software is stuck on the original build from 2022. I have no available software updates. I talked to my dealer about this and they recommended not trying to force an update since the 36,000 mile warranty is expired. This is a big bummer since there have been many major releases since that have fixed small issues and improved speed/usability.   For reference, the current software build number is: full_gminfo37_gb-user 10 W158E-W164.4.2-QIH22B-563.3 158 release-keys Has anyone had a similar experience? Should I just forget about it and move on, or try a different dealer?

      Using zip ties but 2-3 they snap due to sharp edges. Just using a shoestring. Last longer. 🤣

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      I ordered the Snap On...waiting for it to come in later this week or early next week.   New front cover, new crank seal and new balancer are on. Water pump, pulley, fan, hoses, and plastics reinstalled. I can move forward knowing all my timing marks are dead on and the front engine is hopefully sealed better than it was. Take 2 with the water pump...trying high temp thread sealer on the lower bolts.   Rebuilt injector and new-new regulator is in, it looks like new. Top intake reassembled and all the bits are reconnected and snugged down.   Thinking about knock sensors again, I located both of mine and, there's your problem, Francis... The driver's side one is broke, plastic is bashed in, part of the wire is bare, and it appears to have been damaged like that for a long time. I saw the wire but didn't think anything of it. The knock sensor might not be my pulled timing issue, but it sure looks suspect. It must still be conducting, otherwise I'd expect a CEL. But perhaps with its sacred crystal inside exposed, jilted and dirty, maybe it's sending mixed signals. So I'm waiting for one of those and a new pigtail to come in. Pass side sensor looks good, except for the spark plug wire resting on it (!). The plug wires are healthy so it shouldn't be causing an issue, but I separated them and added zip ties to nearby looms to keep everything well apart.   So, I'm down to installing a knock sensor AND, oh, replacing the exhaust and cat. I actually think that's going to be fairly easy, it's all bolt-together, all new stuff from Walker is laid out on the shop floor ready to go. Hopefully have this thing on the road again for the weekend.   My luck? It will still be leaking oil, coolant, pulled timing, intermittent CEL for running rich, or it probably won't run at all -- because that's how this project has gone.   I've never worked on a vehicle so ...hurt? ...cursed? in my life. Everything has been effed with SO HARD, but I think...knock on wood...I've managed to undo all the backyard stuff and we're almost reset back to "just" an 80k mile, 30 year old Blazer.
