2001 silverado cd/radio has FM/AM and CD/AUX selector buttons. Is there actually a AUX jack somewhere on this unit ??

Hoping to avoid having to remove radio unit to find out.

Thanks.

I had mine out today, and didn't notice them if there were any. there was a connector that had like 6 to 8 pins, and I have no idea what it is to be used for. There was nothing plugged into it.

yea there should be an auxilary jack on the back in addition to the normal power/speaker jack .

Thats used to like run a remote tape deck or cd deck or possibly something else like a changer

Oh and removing the radio could hardly be any easier - just pull the IP trim piece off with your fingernails (pull hard, it will snap and crack but no harm will be done - it repeatedly pops on and off with ease), then the radio is held in by levers on each side.

The Freecom Wireless PdAuX3W Aux input is The Ticket :lol: for the older 98-02 Chevy Silverado, S10, S15, GMC Sierra, etc. that also gives you an ignition switched USB port to charge your GPS:

Nice thing about this one is that you can keep the GM Factory CD Shuttle connected if you have one, and if you don't, you don't need to be prewired for it. Great product if you're looking to send Ham or XM Radio or GPS / MP3 audio to the Delco head unit.

yup it is. all you need is a cable that has a headphone style jack for both ends. you wont be able to control the ipod through the stereo but to me that feature isnt worth 100 bucks. another thing is with the ipod cable itll chare the ipod where as this way it wont. but really a 3 dollar cable vs a 100 dollar cable, theres a big difference to me.

Ipod compatible???

Holy sheet, I hit the buy now just for the halibut, and the price was $229.00 shipped to Canada.

I could but a pretty good after-market deck for that price.And with Usb and other goodies. Link > http://www.freecomwireless.com/index.html?...Model=Silverado

    • Enjoy the new truck, it’s a beauty. I’m glad you’re keeping the OBS, I love those old trucks. 
    • With large equipment or deep mud it is more of a use the higher gear to avoid spinning tires, getting stuck because of spinning tires and doing damage to your machine. The idea is if you run out of torque before you spin tires you can still downshift for more torque. If you are just spinning your tires in the lowest available gear you are stuck and things break.   Automatic transmissions, traction control and electronic transfer cases change the calculation a little as you the driver have less control over each piece. 
    • are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.
    • Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆
    • I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.
