Reading the Owners manual on my new '22 3500 Denali. 

 

Pretty boring after reading the manual for my '21 1500 Denali.

 

But one section caught me off guard. Says you can lock out the inner gate. Had to go back to the 21's manual to see if I missed it last year. Nope, not in it.

 

Hopefully @newdude will see this and respond, if'n this can be programmed into a 21. I went out to the 21 to see if it worked and wasn't mentioned in the manual. No luck.

 

Anyone have a '22 1500 limited and have this feature?

Very cool. Just went outside and tried it on my 22 LTD Trail Boss and it worked. Great feature.

Looks like it was added for 2022+. My guess it was supposed to be apart of the Refresh for 22 but the Limiteds ended up with it first. Is it just on and off? Order Guide makes it seem like it's supposed to recognize the hitch. But guessing it just means IF a hitch installed you can turn it off. Seems like it could work automatically since the trucks know when a hitch is connected anyways. 

 

Below is a 21 without it mentioned and 22 with it.

From 2022 LTD Owners Manual

 

To disable the inner tailgate from opening:

ensure that the remote key is within 1 meter (3 ft) of the rear bumper and then hold the upper touchpad on the tailgate handle for three seconds.

 

The tail lamps will flash to alert you that the inner gate has been disabled.

 

The inner and outer tailgate can still be operated like a traditional tailgate, but the inner gate will not be able to be opened alone.

 

To enable the inner tailgate function, hold the upper touchpad on the handle for 3 seconds until the tail lamps flash.

The inner tailgate can now be opened separately from the outer tailgate.

Wish this worked on my 21. As soon as you press the button it releases the latches. Dealer would probably want a fortune to program it even if it was possible on a 21.

How do you lock the entire tail gate for security purposes?  

Lock the doors.

How do disable the in cab tailgate switch? I have hit it a few times thankfully nothing hit by tailgate.

Only way is to keep it out of park.😇

    • Google converting 98 4.3 spider injection to carburetor if all else fails. 
    • My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.  
    • The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.    
    • I have four that read by the dash 8 to 10% better than miles/pump calculations and I have one that is spot on.
