2024 GMC 1500 Pro, the install instructions say to install blue wire on OBD plug to the dark connector on the BMC wire LIGHT GREEN/GREY STRIPE wire.  I have BCMs there is only 1 BMC that has a dark grey connector and on that connector there are only 3 wires and non are light green/grey stripe........HELP!

Did you get this resolved? working now?  I have mine installed, only thing left to do is connect these wires...  I was told it is the farthest back plug and is pin 29 for the grey plug.

And 2 wires to the BCMs

 

Interesting.  When I installed my AMP steps only needed the OBD port and power from the battery.

 

I'll be interested to hear if you notice any other effects.  I believe, since installing mine with the OBD plugged in, my start/stop function has been disabled.   Haven't unplugged them to check though.

That would be awesome, but the current ones have two wires that have to be tapped into a couple plugs.  It is a royal PITA if you don't have perfect eyesight and flexible to get to the plugs in the drivers foot well.

I had the wire to the light green plug the black connector I didn't need because I have a regular cab and the black plug would of been for the rear doors.  I do love them and they do not make noise like some people said on a previous thread.

I'll be interested hear if you notice any changes in how your auto start/stop behaves.

Yea, I was coming back here to ask about the noise...  Mine seem to clunk pretty loudly when retracting, esp the drivers side.

ok, I looked at mine again and fixed most of the klunk...  I didn't read the manual close enough and the rear mechanism is supposed to be one hole forward of the rear holes...  I just put them in where the stock running boards were...  I guess I should RTFM.  😔

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling.

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.
