I'm trying to install this: https://boostautoparts.com/products/2019-newer-gm-charging?options=&year=2019&make=GMC&model=Sierra 1500

 

And before I went ahead and made permanent mods to the trip pieces (drill holes) I decided to try charging my phone before I put it back together and it wouldn't work.  Further troubleshooting and neither of my accessory/cigarette lighters function, front or back.  All other USB outlets seem to function just fine.

 

This particular device plugs into the accessory/cigarette lighter wiring hardness in back, underneath the two cup holders.

 

Anyway, tried a meter and couldn't get any voltage at either so went hunting for the fuse(s).  Found this site (https://www.startmycar.com/us/gmc/sierra/info/fusebox/2019/gen-g5) which seems to explain it well and seems to match my manual but for the life of me, nothing I try works.

 

The manual and the website seem to indicate that F28 could be it, but what I have (passenger side/front/front) doesn't match what I find when I open it up.

It's close, but not the same, but still empty.

If I flip this around and look at the other side, there's 4 more that seem to match the diagram at least.

I don't have fuses/breakers in the bottom 2 slots there which seem to might be for 2021+, but the top 2 I pulled out, tested continuity, and they are fine.  Close up shot of them:

Am I even in the right ball park here?  Anyone else able to check their truck to see if I'm supposed to have the bottom 2 slots filled up?  I tried moving the breakers from the top 2 to the bottom 2 and it didn't change anything I could notice.

 

If I'm supposed to have something in F28 in my first picture, it's 3 prongs and doesn't look like what's in my manual.

Have you checked your owner's manual?  You can see it online at mygmc.com if you don't have the printed copy.

 

On page 359, it shows the fuse panel layout for F27/F28.  It is a 2 prong fuse that you shift left/right if you want RAP power or not. 

 

On page 360, it shows circuit breakers.  CB2 is for the cigarette lighter.

Yep, I have.  You hit the nail on the head of what I'm struggling with here. 

 

I guess I didn't consider it was a 2 prong fuse that shifted position.  It's absent in my first image though so I need to try and source that part, but I also don't know which cigarette lighter it's referring to as there's 2 of them.  One on the front dash, and one in the rear.  

 

What does RAP power stand for ?

 

EDIT: Retained Accessory Power, got it.  Does that mean "On" when in Accessory mode?

 

Trying to find the amperage and a model number of the fuse I need but struggling.

I checked my truck.  I have a 50 amp fuse for F27.  After some research, I found the part number is 22917200.

Thank you so much!  I saw 50 on an older truck for what I think it the same thing but just felt awfully high for what it's feeding so was worried I'd eventually damage something.  This makes me feel good about the choice.

 

Thanks again for the help!

      OCI, not when but why?

      By KARNUT · Posted

      But Grumpy I did show several subdivisions that had homes starting in the 170K range. If you bought a Townhouse or Condo you could go cheaper. Same with a car 3000 dollars in the 70s translates to around 20K today. There are several models at that price. You actually get more for the money. In the 70s I drove a 3000$ car bought a 28K home and made 4.50 per hour. Thank goodness for overtime. Today I could buy a 170K house drive a 20K car and make 25 dollars an hour operating the same machine today. The difference the house, car, machine would be better and have AC. And I wouldn’t be taxed on overtime. And statistically your wife works too. Easing the burden. I thought we agreed to disagree. I brought receipts earlier, showing examples. I think you’re more stubborn than me. I was done with this debate.

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.
