Does anyone have a 2019+ truck with FACTORY-installed front illuminated grille emblem?  If so, could you please do me a favor and take a look under the hood behind the driver's side headlight to see how GM routes the emblem wiring harness out of that area and into the area behind the grille?  Also, there is a mounting clip on one of the connectors that tee into the headlight harness - where/how is this mounted?

 

Thanks so much!

I'm not sure if this helps, but here's the installation manual for it.  If you need one of the images blown up, let me know.

Yes sir, I have the manual, but it is very vague and does not show precisely where things are located.  Thank you though!  I'm hoping someone has it as an option from the factory.

Does this help?  It’s the best pictures I can get to how one was routed here.

None of them are a factory installed. They are a dealer installed option.

Ok cool.  Does anyone have pictures of a dealer-installed one?  Although, I imagine each tech probably does it his own way.

I just installed one on my truck last week. After watching a few YouTube videos I ended up mounting the clips that are attached to the wiring harness on the metal bar that is located just above the shutters . We would all have to remove the cover located underneath the latch that opens the hood to show pictures unfortunately. Do not run the wiring harness through the shutters. Youtube is your best friend for these DYI projects. Also, I did not use the extra clip that was provided since I did not have a lot of wiring harness exposed on the headlight side. GL

I routed mine differently than in the pictures.  I don't have my truck at the moment because it's at the dealership waiting for GM Tech to get off their rears regarding the off camber reverse camera, so I'm not able to get you pics until I get it back.

      This is interesting. My quote tagged here is different from my original quote. After I’m driving them longer. That isn’t me. I don’t talk that way. I definitely wouldn’t express myself that way. Interesting.

      What have you done to your K2 today?

      By UrbanRage · Posted

      I have the same running boards on my truck and I do agree they are bulky. I also find myself stepping over them when getting in and out of the truck. Besides providing protection to the rocker panels, they aren't very useful.  I will be replacing them soon with the Amp Powersteps.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.
