I have a 2024 Sierra 2500 AT4X. I just did a tire rotation and included my spare in the rotation. It’s now in the back right position. Once I got moving, 3 tires showed up but 4th tire is blank. I adjusted the tire pressures all the way around according to the sticker in the door jamb, 65 in the front and 55 in the back. The display shows the 65 tires are in the back and 1 55 tire in the front. The front left shows nothing still. I bought a relearn tool and get the horn honk on FL and FR. When I get to the BR nothing happens and the process times out. 
 

Does the full spare come with a TPMS sensor? The wheel and tire combo is the exact same as the other 4.

AT4X carrier vs regular 2500/3500 HD spare tire storage question.

Hi. I  see you mention that your full size spare is the same GM aluminum wheel as your other wheels. I have been wanting to add a full size aluminum spare to my truck but I have read that an aluminum wheel should only be stored in the spare tire rack temporarily and not kept there long term because of corrosion etc. I am wondering if the AT4X and ZR2 have a different spare tire carrier or is it just the standard carrier that the normal HD’s have? I’d like to put a full size black 20” spare wheel and tire under there but was worried the carrier might damage the aluminum wheel. Anything different about your spare tire carrier under your truck from that of a regular HD truck? Thank you for any info.

I put the stock at4hd 20" rim and matching tire that I'm running, up under there.

 

gm uses the same winch system.

I don’t think my tire carrier is any different than the non-AT4X/ZR2 models. Just a winch and small heat shield. The manual just says to put the tire valve stem up instead of down.

    • I've got a 2013 2500 6.0L Flexfuel. Drove the truck earlier today with no issues. Went to run an errand tonight and noticed key fob wouldn't work. Figured battery was dead, so replaced fob batter. Still wasn't working. Grabbed my other set of keys with the other fob and that one wasn't working either. So I manually unlock truck and insert key. Interior lights come on, dashboard lights up, turn key and truck starts. Turn truck off, like a moron, and try starting again. This time no crank, no click, no nothing. Lights still come on and dash lights up, but now I'm getting a service 4wheel drive, service tire monitor, etc. Check voltage on battery and Im showing 12.2v. Throw my battery charger on it and give it 15 mins and try starting again. But still no crank no start. Decide maybe its a bad battery, run to autozone grab a new one and put it in. Same issue. Disconnect battery and let it sit for 15 mins. Try again and still nothing. I had managed to roll the windows down earlier as its a humid night, but now I can't get them to roll up. Power locks are also not working now. Then randomly I try the key again, and it fires right up. Immediately I roll up the windows as we have nothing but rain forecast this week. I shut it back off wait 30 seconds and start up again. Worked a 2nd time. So turn it off, start putting things back together. Try one more time, and back to no crank no start. And now the car alarm starts going off. Had to disconnect battery and leave it that way for the night as I don't think my neighbors would appreciate my alarm going off again tonight. Any thoughts or help would be appreciated.

    • Hi there.  Long time lurker, first post.    i have read the previous posts regarding the water ingress problem with this emblem.  I bought my 1500 SLT the  summer of 2025 new and after reading the MANY problems with these emblems failing I decided to install one anyways.  As per a YouTube video, I sealed ( or tried to) this sign with silicone sealant around the outer perimeter joint and the holes that were already somewhat sealed on the rear plate of the emblem.  And installed the connector assembly using dielectric grease on the connectors. The installation looked great and worked well for about 4 months……then FAILURE.  Grrrrrr…… I live in the great white north and wash my truck weekly in an automatic car wash  to keep the salt off.  Let me tell you that removing the old, failed emblem is a whole different animal than removing the OEM individual letters without removing the grill assembly. Mainly because the illuminated logo is built differently than the original letters which  you can remove the red surface lettering with a knife or some kind of blade which gives access to the tabs which hold the logo onto the grill. So I had to essentially destroyed the old emblem to remove it. Doing so killed my chance of doing somekind of autopsy on the failed , old logo.  But there was plenty of water inside when I ripped it apart.  Prior to installing the new assembly I tried it with the old harness and it works fine.   Does anyone have any insight as to where the water is getting into this emblem? I intend to seal the new logo with slow curing epoxy this time around using a syringe.  I think this newer emblem may be an updated unit which I hope GM got the vendor to fix. It has an October 2025 date on it.    If this one  fails,  I am just going to revert back to the non-illuminated letters….AFTER PULLING THE GRILL.    Any thoughts on sealing with epoxy would be appreciated. Thx!   Doug  
    • PS: Here's pic of the 2014 wheels I'd like to run when it's not winter. Stuck my finger around new wheel caliper setup. Very little clearance. I suspect these won't fit, but won't know for sure till I try.   Edit: And my first mod. Stubby antenna from the old truck.
