Love that we can now keep Camera on for monitoring stuff, even though you can't change much while moving, but hate that it no longer remembers Intellibeams On setting. I always have to turn it on now.

What is different with the camera function?

Do you have the firmware info? Is this for the new trucks or the 19-22.5? (yours says 22, but i don't know if that is pre/after refresh.)

 I hate that it doesn't remember intellibeams!

Yes I just realized the Intellibeams are shutting off when the ignition goes off. SO not sure why they did this.

 

Maybe so we use them less I guess because I forget to turn them on now.

I looked for a place to submit 'bugs' and/or feature requests and couldn't find anything other than calling or snail mail. I tried the call them route and that was a waste of time. Anybody know how to submit things like this to them?

I updated Wednesday morning. Everything seemed to go well. I see people talking about the Intellibeams , I tested mine tonight and it seems to stay active after a restart. The best part of the update is it fixed my finicky wireless phone charger. I've had this truck for 2 weeks and that damn charger was driving me nuts . Constantly cutting out. There was one sweet spot where it would work. After the update as long as the top of the phone is down it charges no matter where it sits in the charger. This is with the case on the Pixel 7 pro.

Used to turn off 8 seconds after you start moving. Now, it stays on while driving, presumably so you can monitor stuff in the bed. Once moving, it limits view option changes, but retains last setting even if you had selected forward view.

Sorry, mine is a refresh. I will update my profile to reflect that.

I think they only "listen to" repair orders at the service department. Too bad because it might save them a lot of wasted time having us tie up time in the service department just to get a bug noticed while someone who really needs something fixed has to wait.

Is this a OTA software/firmware update? I just installed the update that allows me to continue receiving updates, on my 2023 Sierra, is this a newer version?

I'm not actually not sure because not too long ago dealer performed a recall update pertaining to daytime running lights not turning off at night, as well. Shortly afterward I noticed 3 changes that supposedly were not part of the recall. In fact, my inner tailgate not locking out was something no dealership could fix, and GM was "aware of it, but had no fix". Then, suddenly the tailgate issue was fixed, so I'm thinking it was an OTA.

 

Since yours is 2023, maybe you didn't need the update. Does your inner tailgate lockout using the "hold for 3 seconds" instructions? Does your camera stay on while driving?

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
