2017 Colorado wt, 2.5L longbed, base level. 

When I do a startup and you get the indicator lights on the instrument panel light up briefly for a check. There is the "ldw" lane departure warning light that comes on briefly too(circled in red in the pic). This vehicle is not equipped with that feature. The owners manual say "if equipped, this light comes on briefly when starting the vehicle" So one would think it would not need to come on as it's not equipped. 

I'm looking into this because. 1, it's not equipped with it as there is no rpo code “UEU”, no camera on the windshield infront of the rear view mirror needed for this and no user button on the center stack. And 2, a previous dealer did a body module check of some sort. 

Any info will be greatly appreciated. Thanks all!

I'm gonna say its normal?  Here's a video of one on Youtube starting up.  WT base truck.  The lane departure icon lights during the startup.  

 

LDW wasn't even available on a WT Colorado for 2017, so its probably just something on how the cluster is setup.

Basically that is exactly what I was looking for was a video of others but had no luck in searching. I wanted to assume it was how the cluster is setup to do its check as well. Thank you!

    • Just buy the tube and move on with life.  
    • Glad that worked, and in this case that is all on Autel for somehow dropping the ball for not updating the GMC section properly.    I believe in the basic section or unless it is in the advanced, when one does a check of lets say individual sensors for what the pressure is ( and it shows a temperature as well ) , I think it picks up on what the model number of the sensor is in a certain section where you choose "OE" sensor or at least mine is telling me what the model number is and matches to what they actually are and that is the number I quoted in a prior post.    I don't recall now if I had said prior that I discovered with my truck anyway that no matter how low I set the placard pressure for the rear tires, if the physical pressure is under 35 psi and I drive it for about 15 miles the pressure warning will come on for one or both rear tires. I am speculating that there is something else in the trucks system that over rides the placard pressure setting once it drops below that minimum pressure to run a metric LT tire at. The weird thing is it does not trigger right away after driving a shorter distance, it took that longer drive for it to trigger. Just something to keep in mind if you were experimenting with pressures below 35 pounds for a tire designed for lower pressures ( larger than stock floatation series tires ) and not being overloaded of course. 
    • I've seen a scant few YT vids on them, but it's always in a performance application. 
    • No clue. Service advisor said he'd call me this morning, which I'm 99% sure won't happen. They had the truck 5 days, and I didn't hear a peep. Finally had to call them yesterday. I guess they'd be content to just let the truck sit in perpetuity. 
    • I had a little bit of time before I left for work this morning, so I plugged the scanner back in, and I selected Chevrolet Silverado instead of GMC Sierra, and the very first option was for a 2026 so I selected that one and I seen at the bottom it had the option for psi change unlike in the 2026 GMC Sierra, I selected that option and it took a little longer than the usual vehicle not supported, and sure enough I got into it, and it let my change the psi values.. I no longer have the low psi warning light!   Thank you for recommending me to try it under Chevrolet instead! I can confirm this device does work for a 2026 GMC Sierra 2500 hd 6.6 diesel  just have to select Chevrolet Silverado instead of GMC Sierra.   Maybe I'll contact Autel and let them know of that issue and maybe they will fix it for the GMC option  because some people probably return the scanner due to it not working under GMC Sierra.
