How can I change the backup screen brightness for night. I can't see my mirror's  I have to cover the screen with a rag to back my boat to the launch

Following! Trying to back my duck boat down the ramp in the dark for the first time was an experience! I had to throw a jacket over it to keep from getting blinded.

You cant, take it to the dealer as there is an update to correct this for screen brightness. I had mine done about a year ago to correct this all good now.

Does the update fix the issue with the screen being brighter than the rest of the dash lights when driving and yes its like spot light in reverse mode at night if your soundings are dark?  I was driving this weekend on a dark country road and had to turn my dash way down because the screen was to bright. Seem like the screen is much brighter than the rest of dash lightning.

I never had the issue being brighter then the rest of the dash lights at night just the back-up screen was bright at night backing up but the update bulletin 20NA129 fixed the issue now it dims down backing up and no longer blinds you.

It's definitely brighter than the rest of the dash. My last ride i was able to adjust the screen +/- brightness if you like it darker or brighter once you dialed in your dash brightness. I'll ask Chevy about that update at my next service maybe it will help.

    • Just buy the tube and move on with life.  
    • Glad that worked, and in this case that is all on Autel for somehow dropping the ball for not updating the GMC section properly.    I believe in the basic section or unless it is in the advanced, when one does a check of lets say individual sensors for what the pressure is ( and it shows a temperature as well ) , I think it picks up on what the model number of the sensor is in a certain section where you choose "OE" sensor or at least mine is telling me what the model number is and matches to what they actually are and that is the number I quoted in a prior post.    I don't recall now if I had said prior that I discovered with my truck anyway that no matter how low I set the placard pressure for the rear tires, if the physical pressure is under 35 psi and I drive it for about 15 miles the pressure warning will come on for one or both rear tires. I am speculating that there is something else in the trucks system that over rides the placard pressure setting once it drops below that minimum pressure to run a metric LT tire at. The weird thing is it does not trigger right away after driving a shorter distance, it took that longer drive for it to trigger. Just something to keep in mind if you were experimenting with pressures below 35 pounds for a tire designed for lower pressures ( larger than stock floatation series tires ) and not being overloaded of course. 
    • I've seen a scant few YT vids on them, but it's always in a performance application. 
    • No clue. Service advisor said he'd call me this morning, which I'm 99% sure won't happen. They had the truck 5 days, and I didn't hear a peep. Finally had to call them yesterday. I guess they'd be content to just let the truck sit in perpetuity. 
    • I had a little bit of time before I left for work this morning, so I plugged the scanner back in, and I selected Chevrolet Silverado instead of GMC Sierra, and the very first option was for a 2026 so I selected that one and I seen at the bottom it had the option for psi change unlike in the 2026 GMC Sierra, I selected that option and it took a little longer than the usual vehicle not supported, and sure enough I got into it, and it let my change the psi values.. I no longer have the low psi warning light!   Thank you for recommending me to try it under Chevrolet instead! I can confirm this device does work for a 2026 GMC Sierra 2500 hd 6.6 diesel  just have to select Chevrolet Silverado instead of GMC Sierra.   Maybe I'll contact Autel and let them know of that issue and maybe they will fix it for the GMC option  because some people probably return the scanner due to it not working under GMC Sierra.
