There are settings to turn on and off side cameras with turn signals(all of the time) and front camera at slow down with turn and take off.

 

Can you  provide a brief explanation on how to access the settings? I'd like to see what is available.

Looks like I found my own answer. Those that have this system likely know you can access a menu to turn on your cameras while driving by holding the "Back" button on the radio.  Once you get there there are two additional menus. One is the button on the top right of the screen and then once in that menu the second is through performing a long hold on the lock at the bottom right of the screen. It allows a few different options such as making the side cameras function even if you don't have a trailer connected.

It's all explained much better than I can in the installation guide FCTP-GM1903 User Guide found at Intellihaul 2.0 Trailering Camera for Silverado and Sierra Trucks (echomaster.com)

I'll also point out the same website I linked in the previous post has a technical bulletin related to turn signals not functioning if you have your fog lights on. There is a fix discussed on the website.

 

I have fog lights but don't know that I've ever actually turned them on so I can't say it's a problem for me yet.

I have a 2023 Chevy Silverado 1500 custom 2.7. I have a rear camera. Was wondering if my radio is good to add a front camera? The camera says I need the intellihaul system. I don't know if I do.  Help

IDK what the radio/bus system is like in the 1/2 tons; do all of them have the wide screen?

 

Assuming everything is the same from LD to HD 2023 models then yes, you need the Intellihaul module that AFAIK only is in a kit with wireless rear camera setup and side mirror cameras. You have to have IOS-code radio (which on HD is only with 8" screen; think it's IOR with smaller screen, and IOT with factory navigation). There is a QR code on the driver door opening you can scan to find out what radio you have.

 

Again, assuming all things equal, one can get a larger bezel, screen, and a programmed radio module. But spitballing price on self-install, that might equal the cost of the Intellihaul kit itself-and just gets worse with paid install.

I've already got the front camera and kit; I think I'll probably get it done next month at the same time I'm putting on a replacement bumper and eliminate all the grille louvers but top and bottom.

 

It doesn't seem hard, from watching videos. If I had to guess, what looks like the hardest part is pulling the rubber "duct" from between the door and cab/running the mirror cables through/reinstalling duct. On another vehicle, I ran wires for LED lights behind speaker grill, and the duct part was the worst.

 

One video I saw, the installer mentions pulling the speaker to access the camera cable and attaching to the existing door harness rather than slitting a boot in the door.

I have a 2022 Silverado HD with an intellihaul 2.0 system. My infotainment system touch screen was not functioning properly, and stopped working completely from time to time. The dealer replaced the touch screen, now they are saying they have to have some new switch between the intellihaul 2.0 and the touch screen, as without it, the radio does not function (what they told me). It has been over a month of run-around on this so called "switch". Anyone else having this issue ?

    • My 2015 1500 LTZ Silverado suddenly won't go into 4 x 4 low. It will go into 4 x 4 high.
    • Yep, just a quick reference point.    My main point being I’d do a thousand other things before I’d pay 10k for a transmission.    Speaking in ignorance cause I don’t look at these trucks, what is it worth? 20k?
    • I think users are going to want to pick their monitored parameters, which parameters they want to see first.    It should probably start with baseline at a minimum and adjust to learned, but be able to overlay baseline for comparison.   A simple severity level would be able to determine what type of alerting is appropriate or user selectable.    Why not use the OBD port though?   I think a phone connection would be a good idea, push notifications type deal.   Number 1 issue is having data is useless if you don’t know what the data should be under normal conditions. 
    • I thought I would use your thread and add to it as I just did my first longer drive with my truck in the last couple of days. I drove from the Grande Prairie area of Alberta down to Edmonton and most of where I drove in the city was the ring road so fairly free flowing but a bit of stop and go as well in the city. Stayed the night and returned home and not too many stops along the way each way but every restart and certainly every cold start sets it back for fuel mileage. Why I say that is I see some people will cherry pick a fuel mileage leg after the vehicle had been warmed up driveline wise before hand and its a forgiving ( easy rolling drive leg for example ) and call that their fuel mileage which can give a false perception of reality. I was not heavily loaded at all but never the less the flip bak cover, rubber bed mat, various tools etc and extra jerry cans of fuel all way up to a few hundred pounds of dead weight so its not an empty truck. The cold inflation tire pressures are set more near the freezing point so once they are warmed up driving I was showing 45 front and over 40 rear and realize high inflation pressures would help a little in fuel mileage but certainly not the ride on our crap sections of highway. The weather was good so was not raining as that can really drag mileage down, in fact I had a bit of a tail wind on average driving home. Most people on here would never have driven on that freeway to visualize it but its got a fair bit of rolling type of landscape with numerous river valleys. For the most part I had it on cruise set to 62 although kicking it off if I caught it in time before it started down shifting and self braking going down the grades. Most of the more substantial grades its shifting into 7th I believe as 8th just doesn't have it. Total distance round trip was 643 miles and my overall average and I did refuel three times in all, figured out to 17.65 miles per US gallon. My best fuel mileage section refuel within all of this figured out to 18.46 and these are all hand calculated figures. I find if anything that the trucks computer can be over optimistic, sometimes its pretty close but other times its stretching it. On paper persay in theory the truck would have just about made it on fumes for that whole drive without refueling once.    Which made me think of the topic thread of the wonder if these trucks could do 20 mpg and that is a good question, certainly would have to be on an easy going flat highway, no head wind, the right temperature, not packing around a bunch of dead weight and puttering along even slower than I was I would suspect and going steady and not stopping to smell the flowers or take a piss !. It probably is possible but not without effort to attain that with the wind resistance and weight of these trucks. Of course on my drive most people are passing me if they have the power as per loaded highway tractors, never mind a lot of speedy vehicles but the speed limit is 68 and most are at or well over that. 
    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
