Hey gang!

 

In a strange twist of fate we had two customers in the past few weeks retrofit our T1 Uplevel High Country/Denali clusters to IOR equipped vehicles. Both users after adding the required wiring and steering wheel controls have confirmed that not only do the menu controls work but also the full steering wheel audio controls! In the past only our Dealer customers had done this retrofit so we were unaware of this facet due to lack of feedback (no news is good news!)  but this is great news for those of you who have been wondering about this!

 

HarnessDR.com says they will have T1 harnesses up shortly on the site OR in the interim you can order the 14-18 version and put a note that its for a T1 and they will build it accordingly.

A few people have expressed interest in a lower cost method to do this upgrade. While I think if you're going to go through all of this the real upgrade is the Denali / High Country variants we have c

Upgrade complete on my 2020 Custom Trail Boss!  With the help of the Harness Dr's instructions, I was able to figure out how to get the wires landed where they needed to be.   Unlike everyon

I’ve already been talking with HarnessDr about this, and ordered a wheel clockspring, and harness. Just ordered a cluster now, my question is, what year were the trucks? The clockspring is for an LT truck with key ignition, should I keep it or will my 2019 clockspring work?

I think thats something until we are 100% sure on everything by model year end users will have to verify on their own clock spring wise. The trucks were 2020-2021 however the 2019 should be the same in this regard.

I’m assuming this is the harness to order then put in the notes for a T1?

I’m not seeing the link? Ordering the harness just has the wire in it that needs to be added to the stock harness right? Just want to make sure I’m not missing anything here. You can either add the wire or buy the harness right? No clockspring is needed? I’ve installed steering wheel already just need to get a cluster from WAMS. Thanks

Thanks much 

No problem, already got shipping notification on mine.

 

To your other questions though, I can't answer. The wheel I ordered was this: 84813359

 

It came with a harness and I had the dealer install so I am hoping there is nothing additional with the clock spring that needs to be messed with. I have my WAMS cluster and the harness already on the way so I will update you next week if you don't have an answer sooner. Wish me and my wallet luck lol

I'm in the middle of the same deal. My trucks a 19, this worked on the 20 and 21 but not yet the 19. The wheel for the t1 19 on gm parts direct isn't the same wheel for the t1 20-21.   So wish me luck...!!!

 

I ordered the wams cluster, 84755546 steering wheel, silver piece for the dash to match the wheel and the harness from Dr harness.  I'll be doing it as soon as the clusters here.

 

Looking forward to see who else has done it or tried it on a 19.

Questions guys.  I have a 21 LT crew that has the steering wheel controls for the radio.  My build sheet says IOR - CHEVROLET INFOTAINMENT 3 8" DIAG COLOR TOUCHSCREEN.  I would like to go to the High Country cluster.  So, my questions are, Do I just order just the cluster?  Will I need anything from harnessDr?

I messaged wams and he said the 20-21 are hard to get and will take a little longer. The 19s tho are a lil different and are easier to get

Yea I’d heard that but couldn’t find it listed on website I thought I saw it before on WAMS site  but can’t find it now. It still says processing on my order from WAMS. As to pintoracer if you already have audio controls it’s just a update of the cluster if you want I don’t believe you need anything else besides cluster but I maybe wrong.

Thanks!  I kind of figured that was the case!  I may go ahead and place an order.

      Doors lock and mirrors fold in while driving

      By BIGBOYS · Posted

      I have a 2015 Silverado and sometimes I can not get in to the truck. I use the key to unlock the driver door. Something is locking the truck when I unlock it, last night I left the truck open and this morning it was locked with the mirrors folded in. This happens while driving so it is now a safety issue. I reach down for the folding button and they open, then they close again.  Any advice, thank you,   Ed

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

      By Atlas · Posted

      tl; dr I've now reached the 6th floor of hell. I'm chronicling my journey for my morning readers.   Pulling the top of the intake apart was moderately easy but it involved a lot of parts, connections, and minutae. I was preparing for the new fuel lines to arrive ("nut and bolt kit" it's called). The fuel line connections are notched and held in place by the manifold and a metal plate with a T27 screw.   It's on the back of the intake, under the firewall, with little clearance, and two hard metal fuel lines in the way. I was using Franken-tools (weird combinations of 1/4 inch ratchet with/without an extension, with a bit holder for my T27) to get in there. One of my sockets and bits fell off and has yet to emerge on the floor. I lost a second setup and that's when I almost started throwing tools. But that was the point at which I had gotten traction on the Torx head, and it promptly stripped. No more traction.   I started humming "1-877-kars-4-kids" because I was about at that point. You know what? I'm $1500 into this thing and I can make it disappear just as quickly. This isn't fun anymore. I had spent a lot of time already "tidying" around the engine bay: Fixing all the "someone's been here before!" BS. The truck has been exclusively dealer- and shop- serviced and I'm reminded of why I never let other people work on my cars unless absolutely necessary.   Speaking of dealer service. This truck has a 1" stack of records going back to 1995. I put them all in an excel spreadsheet, date/mileage/description.   The CPI spider has been replaced 4 times in 85k miles. The EGR? Another 4. Multiple, multiple O2 sensors. One Cat. 4? Sets of plugs and wires, and I swear half the stack is diagnosis paperwork for "misfire, runs rough, extended crank, dies at stoplights".   GM was producing some proper crap back then. And it was still well within the era of brittle/crappy plastic. (Windows 95 was released the same month this truck was sold new, we HAD the technology!!)   There (was) a plastic shroud around the evaporator core and HVAC fan in the engine bay. I noticed a chunk of it missing so I poked at it some more and it literally shattered. Touched it some more and pieces were crumbling off. Had a good laugh. Clearly whatever plastic garbage they were using had broken down over 30 years and was literally turning to dust. That was a good half hour of using a shop vac to remove the rest of it.   Back to it.   I was going to give up for the evening but then decided I'm already level 10 pissed off at the stripped screw: G* D* it, give me my tools back -- and my JOY. We'll do this the hard way: The whole intake is coming off.   Blazer won Round II. After finally finding and accessing the 12 intake bolts and using a pry bar to unseat it from the heads, it popped loose in an explosion of gunk and grime raining down into open ports. Awesome.   6 times I reminded myself: Be careful of the temperature sender on the front of the intake.   YEAH, I forgot again and snapped it clean off in the removal. Add another $20 to the ever-growing list of new parts this thing is consuming.   The shame is, long before removing the intake, I had changed the oil in prep for Tuesday's momentous fuel line replacement that was going to be the magic fix and I'd have a running Blazer to tool around in this next weekend. The intake removal, including raining gunk, also gushed dirty coolant all over the valley. Of course it did. Welp, there goes another $35.   I now need an intake gasket set, bolt set, coolant temp sensor, another 5 quarts of oil, some RTV. Don't worry, I've already got 3 new jugs of Dexcool and a thermostat waiting. I'll fill it with clean water first to get it running, dump it, and then add the Dex later on in case... well, let's not go there. I'm only tearing this down once, next time the truck is going on Marketplace for FREE.   Oh, and I'm going to need vacuum hose for all the stupid connections placed at the rear of the engine which have since disintegrated. Come on, GM....tell me you don't do that anymore?   Oh, and the ears on the distributor where the cap screws down are both cracked. I mean, why not put a new distributor in it too. You get a distributor, YOU get a distributor, Everyone gets a new distributor!   This truck isn't out of the woods yet...I'm already questioning how much more time I'm willing to sink in.

      Bent valve in 2025 GMC Canyon Denali - Requires engine swap at 14K miles

      By William Aldrich · Posted

      NewDude, thank you for the suggestions!    I did follow up and the dealer indicates he has an open CX case and is working with DPAC (Dealer Parts Assistance Center).   Per the dealer, GM has had a quality spill and is not providing an update for when a replacement engine will be available.
