I bought tow mirrors for 09 Chevy Silverado passenger mirror works perfect defrost, power movement, and blinker however the drivers side blinker won’t work which causes my truck blinkers not to work. The indicator light on dash blink faster than normal like my blinker is out. Power moment will only move up and left. Any suggestion on a a fix.

Do electrical testing.  You can pull the mirror off and see if the light is getting power & ground, and/or pull the door panel off and test at the main mirror plug if it's getting them for the turn signal.  Could be a bad mirror, or some problem with it, or could be a wiring problem, say in the door jam.

Worked on it more today found that the fuse was blown changed it out and tried the blinker instantly popped the fuse after hitting the switch. I didn’t see and frayed wiring any where no corrosion, didn’t have a multimeter to check if everything was getting power but this is where I’m at now.

Thank you for posting that.  That's the funniest thing I've read today.  Trying to do electrical diagnosis w/o even a multimeter is ridiculous.

      The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.

      Injector update

      By CamGTP · Posted

      Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.

      I can't believe that could possibly be the case. It should be 36mo/100k miles from installation. Then again, it also seems like since a dealership installed it, it'd all be in the system and you wouldn't need to worry about registering, either. Shows you what I know. 😄 Hope this one outlives the warranty!

      I haven't seen inventory recovery from COVID.    In the few random times I 'build my own' truck or SUV, no one has the exact one I want.   GM has been working to lower incentives too for a long time.    A $500 incentive isn't getting me off the couch to go truck shopping.
