I upgrade my doors speaker, add a 5 channel amp and a subwoofer to my 2020 Silverado LT.  It sounds awesome... Until I realize the turn signal click is in the sound system.  Its extreme loud when I use my turn signal.  Same thing with my door chimes.  It chimes through my sound system.  Why would Chevy add these sound through the speaker?  Anyone else has this problem with there upgraded system?  How can i remove the chimes and turn signal noise?

Never mind.  I figured it out.  I set my gain on my front too high.  It boosted the chimes and turn signal volume extremely loud.  For anyone who may run into this problem in the future.  Also, get one of these harness from LLJ Custom.  Makes installation much easier.  You can pay for the loopback harness which is way more expensive or get the basic one for $95.

The door chime and turn signal has been through the speakers since at least 09. I wanted to wrap the flasher in my 09 with foam tape to quiet it down and discovered it was in the speaker. There was a setting in previous trucks that you could turn the chime volume down. I have not looked in these new one though.

My problem is, if I turn the gain down too much, I basically have zero volume on my front speakers so I'm still at a loss with an extremely loud door chime and turn signal noise!

Installed my 5 channel amp, all new speakers, sub, and LLJ loop harness a few months ago and have the same issue. It drives me crazy but turning the gain down lowers the speaker volume too much. Hoping someone comes up with a solution.

@bryknicksSo I spent 30 mins this morning working on this and I agree with @kmeleon and there is an exact fine line on setting input gain to the front speakers in order to add some gain WITHOUT creating a deafening door chime and OH, LOUD turn signal 😅. The alpine amp for my door speakers said from the factory to set the gain right in the middle but that blasted the door chime and turn signal. I turned them up only about 3 notches and that gave me the right amount of power to the speakers and keeping the chime and turn signal much closer to factory sound. Hope this helps.

Nothing more than what I posted above. I set alpine amp's gain at about the 3rd notch - powers my door and dash speakers beautifully with zero distortion and the door chime / seatbelt chime sounds about within 5db of the factory setting. I'm satisfied with how it all sounds including the door chime.

      Acceptably cheap tires?

      By Atlas · Posted

      Which one, the AT or AS?   Starfire is made by Cooper/Goodyear but at $85/tire I'd think I'd need to level-set my expectations that they may not even be round 😉 But you're saying they're decent?   I'm already into this thing $1506 in parts, fluids, etc. Totaled all my receipts today. $250 of that was replacing an EGR and MAP sensor that were probably fine, but I'm not going to return the parts since they've been installed. I'm cheap, but not that cheap. I use it, I keep it!   I may or may not make money if I sell the truck at this point, but, that wasn't really the point. And if I billed my time, I'd be hosed for real. My thought on the tires is I "might" put 1,000 miles on before selling it. I just don't want to put absolute junk on it, that doesn't do anyone any good. If the Solus solidly isn't junk, I'll definitely consider them.

      Is your l8t engine bay super dusty?

      I leave mine as is. I'm always a trip away from riding on unpaved roads. Dealer can clean it when they prep it after I trade it in for another new truck.

      I have these on two vehicles and love them. Pepper is one of them 😉

      4WD. Far as I know it came stock with P's and not LT's. Definitely planning to put P's on it, but stock is a 109 XL load rating so I should probably stick within that guideline.   No rebates on anything I can see at the moment. Discount Tire is offering $50 off, but Pep Boys is very competitive on price, and also carries all the off-brand stuff. Les Schwab always wants an arm/leg, but they do good work.   It still has the original spare. Goodyear Wrangler RT/S, thing looks like a tractor tire LOL!! How times have changed.

      2020 Sierra 2500 windows rolling down

      By JohnRoy · Posted

      2020 Sierra 2500 HD (base model) gas engine 4wd.    All 4 windows roll down on their own. Happens somewhat randomly after stop and engine off - when engine turned off, when walking away from vehicle before or after locks activated. Pulled the window fuse F14 Instrument Panel Fuse Block Right; the driver's side still activates from driver's side door panel; passenger and back seat windows activate from local switches on their doors but not from driver's side group of switches. Power mirrors don't activate with fuse removed either (same fuse for both circuits). Problem not solved.    How can they even activate with fuse removed but they are all still opening and can control from each door?  When they open on their own, I can shut them from the switch in each door, but they don't stay closed.    Seems to be activated somehow with key fob; something bumping the key fob in my pocket or just handling - removed key fob and took it far enough away and now the windows stay closed. Replaced key fob batty just in case, no change.    Sounds like some kind of wiring short or maybe electronics. Dealer will first replace electronic control module without checking anything else and I anticipate problem will still exist since their troubleshooting skills are limited to "do whatever the computer says".  In any case, keyfob seems to be activating the circuitry.    Surely I'm not the only one with this issue, but I can't find anything related on the site. What do yall think?   JohnRoy
