Successfully added cooled seats to truck today thanks to White Automotive Media Services WAMS custom BCM programming.

https://www.whiteautoandmedia.com/product/t1-pickup-wams-spec-bcm-programming/

First I swapped my heated seats out with vented seats from an LTZ.  I also gained power passenger seat,  memory seats/mirrors and power fold mirrors (controlled by MSM in seat) see my other posts about this.

You dont have to do all the memory stuff everything still works if you only want to swap to get cooled seats.

 

You will need a new HVAC control switch that has cooled switches- 84692240.

 

You will need programming. 

I purchased autosync device from WAMS.  Autosync is awesome so many things to customize and new features are frequently added.  One time purschase but you continue to have new features added.  WAMS takes very good care of customers.  WAMS added heated rear seat programming to autosync at my request!

 

I loaded new files to autosync and programmed truck within 5 minutes I had OEM cooled seats and they feel great.  All my wiring for seats were already present in my RST. 

 

Add heated rear seats too.  See other post on that.

 

Thank you Chris from WAMS!!!!

I have an LTZ but needed the bench seat in the front. This combination would not allow me to order the truck with ventilated seats.  Is there a way to determine if all the hardware is there and just needs to be programmed? Also, did you get the flash tool or send in your BCM?

Can I ask how much this cost (seats, controls and WAMS services)?  There are only 2 things I wish my 2020 LT Trail Boss had.  Power folding towing mirrors and cooled seats.  Neither are options available on an LT.

Do you have vent holes in your seat cushion? look underneath for a vent motor or feel back of seat for vent motor bulge behind leather.  Check your harness underneath your seat to see if you have all the pins.  I had all the pins in my body harness so i figured all the wiring was there just needed to install LTZ seats.

$1000 for seats,  $120 for switch,  $400 for autosync.  Sold my seats for $600 and I use autosync for other things.  The seats allowed me to install power fold mirrors and have memory seats (memory control module is built into driver seat it controls folding)  The mirrors allowed me to upgrade to 360 view.  They all tie together.  

 

I did 360 view 1st,  figured now I have mirrors that can fold I am going to try to get that to work.  Bought seats and got fold/memory to work.  Did the OEM wireless charger built into console when I bought the oem console harness I bought the one that supported heated rear seat.  Autosync allowed me to activate the cooled seats and heated rear seats works perfectly just like from factory.

 

Power fold mirrors and memory seats

Where can you buy just the seats?  Wonder if I can even add em with just an lt optioned truck.   I almost bought a used ltz for the seats alone... heated seats where I live is absolutely worthless!!

Nordstrums in SD is where I got mine.  Frieght to PA.  Check your harness under your driver seat check and see if you have the pins for cooled seats. I put pin out is in this post.  You will gain power adjust passenger seat too.

I just took delivery of 2022 LT Trail Boss.  This is exactly my sentiment- I'd try anything to upgrade to power folding mirrors and ventilated seats.  Any help is appreciated.

Do you know if this same BCM programming would work for a 2020 custom retrofitting 2021 high country seats?
 

I got seats and bought wiring harnesses/memory bypass harness for them but was told by the guy who makes the harnesses that even if I got the thermostat controls that I couldn’t get Heat/cool to work because nobody had figured out the BCM. 
 

beyond my understanding. To me if you get them power and get an on off button they should work but apparently not.

      It was never mandated.  Ever.    Automakers were incentivized to install it by getting CAFE credits to help with their vehicle fleet fuel economy scores.  They were being handed money/CAFE credits to install it.  Which is NOT a mandate.       The current admin removed the incentives that were behind them installing it.

      5 Best Slide Down Gameplay Tips! 

      By lanaderay · Posted

      Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!

      Why I Recommend a Desiccant Air Dryer for Cleaner, Drier Compressed Air

      By lingyuair · Posted

      If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.

      My brand new 2007 Silverado's wax frame was rust from end to end partway through it's SECOND winter here in MA. That stuff is completely useless.

      I went another direction after losing a trailer tire, thanks to not being able to access air at ANY of the 5 gas stations and garages I stopped at prior, with a Toyota Tacoma onboard, 50 miles from the Canadian border. They were either out of order, access was blocked, or the hose a few feet too short and I couldn't get any closer without risking damage to someone's property.   https://postimg.cc/gallery/X5QJ55w
