I have a new body style 22 1500 Rst and it has a problem with the front right blinker and running light not working at times. It seems to happen when it is really humid out. They are led lights so I would think it's possibly a wiring problem? I have wiggled the plug in with no change. Starting to see some reports of a problem but no details yet. I haven't talked to the service department yet and was wondering if anyone else here has had the same problem.

mafd2 when it's not working the signal indicator on the dash blinks really fast and it also has a warning on the dash telling you it's not working.

I see.  Haven't heard of this problem. Keep us posted.

Are you still experiencing the issue? If not what was the issue and what fixed it?

RedLT  I  started having multiple electrical issues so I took it to the  dealer and it had full page of electrical faults in it. Gm told them to check some different plug-ins and to check the ground strap. They did these checks and cleared the codes and so far most of the issues haven't come back. I have to bring it back again for a couple other things. Paint is peeling off of the lower box in front of my rear tires and my led trailer lights still flicker when the truck is turned off . I'll have them check to see if any of the faults are back again.

Sounds like lemon law may be in your future soon.

"Led trailer lights still flicker when the truck is turned off"

Just FYI -  my 2019 and my new 2022 Refresh both do this when the truck is locked with trailer hooked up.  It's some kind of feedback....may have to do with the alarm. I know on my 2019 if you unhooked the trailer (while the truck was locked) the alarm would sound.. which is pretty cool.  I assume the 2022 also has this feature.  May try to turn it off in the IO setting and see if it still flickers.

Is your blinker issue resolved? If so what did the dealer do to fix it or what was the cause?

So far it has been working. Gm told the service department some electrical plug-ins to check and clean and also check the ground stap. They cleared the faults out of the computer and told me to drive it to so if it happened again or not. They said they didn't know if what they did fixed it or not.

      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.

      cam upgrade in CA

      apparently CA smog is (or at least was)  checking that the vehicle is using the oem and/or a ca smog approved tune, so I expect you'll fail inspection doing it.

      Possible lifter tick after DOD delete

      yes, leaking exhaust will mess up o2 sensor readings, which in turn messes up fuel trims.

      286,740 Mile Services   8/6/2026   New AC Compressor. Refrigerant oil and dye, evacuate and charge system.  New exhaust system from cat back.  New Iridium plugs plus replace #3 coil Repair/rewire headlamp wiring (passenger side) and replace all forward bulbs. Polish lenses of both assemblies.  Pull rear rotors, clean and adjust parking assembly. Inspect, clean and grease front calipers. Check pads and shoes.  4 wheel power bleed of brake system. Dot 4 Reset idle speed 50 rpm higher New Serpentine belt.    Will need new pads in the rear in about 5K more miles.    Tax Title and License out the door just short of a grand.    AC clutch had bitten the dust. 1 year warranty on the pick and save replacement. Thing will make a Polar Bear cry Uncle.  He spent quite some time on the wiring. It was in the harness and he does nothing half. I got off cheap. I have considerable more light down the road. Sylvania Silver Star replacements.  Gas seal between the porcelain and shell of plug #3 was blown, cooked the coil. That was the cold miss.  Love the new exhaust. I can sneak into the neighborhood again.  Nice to have a working parking brake again. Belle Tire never got it done. That was disappointing.    This was one of her bigger bills and still way cheaper than a payment even given the oil consumption. This thing cost me under a hundred a month in repairs and normal routine costs. What is my incentive to replace it? 🤔
