Hey all , New to the forum. Picked up a 14 1500 High Country and been lurking awhile, Followed Pgamboa's wiring diagram and installed aftermarket power fold tow mirrors. Been working great!

 

I just picked up a set of factory power running boards and looking to install. Love to buy Harness Dr's plug and play harness but being in Canada, the dollar is soo terrible that with the harness and the price I paid for the boards, I'm gonna be touching AMP research costs. 

 

I've sourced most of the plugs needed I believe, each plug for the Dri/Pass boards and the 2 plugs on the module attached to the Drivers board. 

However my question is in what else is required to make these work on a 14-15 MY Chev. I understand that the GMLAN and other connector are not in the plug under the hood? Any wiring diagrams from the 4 wires that comes from the module on the drivers side board into the truck on this 2014 would be appreciated! Also the dash switches have to be swapped out to cancel the boards from extending? 

 

Cheers!

I looked into this awhile back. I ran through Phil's video and found the wiring diagram on another post. I had emailed him and he was willing to help me out since I have all the tools required. Had all the connectors/pins in my cart and the guy selling the boards flaked on me lol. Below are a few posts that will help you out!

      Tire psi

      By jgaudet99 · Posted

      Thank you, I'll check that Autel scanner out and see if it will work for me! Ya I can see GM's point of view if they lower the psi set value for someone and the person sell's the truck and the new owner puts the factory tires back on then their could be liability issues cause the psi warning light wasn't coming on when the tires were under inflated for towing their load and then it might be able to be traced back to GM lowering it.

      Tire psi

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I had a similar but different response when I talked to the service manager where I bought my truck in that he said GM corporate won't allow them to lower the placard pressure setting as they would get their hand slapped but that of course they have the ability to make that change. His suggestion was simply go to a tire dealer or third party shop that is willing to reset the pressures lower. However I chose to buy a tpms tool and partly based off of this very forum as it had been proven to work on the 2024 model ( Global B system ) and while I could have paid lots for a full two way diag tool, I didn't want to spend that much and bought the recommended Autel TS 508 and it will reprogram the 2025 model and assume it should do the 2026 as well. However the tool is rather proprietary to reprogramming Autel tpms sensors so that is a function I will never use, where as a real two way scanner would have many uses but also have yearly subscriptions etc where this 508 is free updates for as long as they put updates out for the unit. In any event it worked to lower the placard pressures and I often use it to adjust my actual tire pressures although will check with a mechanical gauge as well sometimes just to make sure that tires tpms sensor isn't lying to me.    My suggestion is either buy a tool that you know will work to adjust the system or start out by getting the tire shop you bought your tires from to reset your truck and if after that you still want a unit to do it yourself, get one at that point.

      Here is an image of a quick Google search about these tires on my truck and it's exactly same psi recommendation the Toyo tires company gave me!    I'm not looking for anyone else recommended psi or anything, I'm just looking to see if anyone knew a way to get rid of the factory low psi warning light, because I'm not running high psi and ruining my tires when I'm not towing!

      Open the driver's door jamb.  What do the cold tire PSI ratings on the tire placard show?   I'm not saying to run it to those numbers, but I would like to know what it says.
