i'm ready to start buying my parts for this mod in my '03 Tahoe. what are the latest part numbers for all that i need. i'm ready to start bidding on some stuff

 

lux-TNR

lux-amp

harnesses

6cd changer

 

once completed. i'd be willing to post step by step pics on my website for helping others. can someone send my the complete docs, so that i can familiarize with the plan of attack

 

actually i just reread a post and after listening to my newest cd, i'll be going to non-lux route so i have some $s for video in the rear.. lux may sound better, but my audiophile days are long-gone.

 

 

 

thanks

Ok, thanks for replying, next question then. For the time being, i am just going to get the HU #15229287 or equvilent. Besides the antenna and disk, is the unit plug and play? besides getting the techII thing done on a used unit.

If I buy a new unit, there is no need for the techII correct?

Thanks all,

Amos

Yes, the unit is plug and play if it is a new one, you will have to add a wire from the gauge cluster wiring connector (dark green w/ white tracer in A4 position) to the 12 pin connector on the headunit to the "E" position. The wire is the VSS (vehicle speed signal) and it is only needed for the navigation function. The signal helps keep the navigation working smoother by providing a speed input when the GPS signal is weak.

There is no way to use a GM (Delphi) unit in a Ford, They need to have the GM classII databus to function. There is a nice Alpine unit that will work in the Fords or anything with the double din opening.

I meant can you get the ford navigation unit and switch it out with the stock ford cd unit....is it plug and play like some of the gm models or are there a bunch of wiring changes also?

OK. I'm buying the pieces for my Non-Lux TNR upgrade and have a question about the CD Changers. I know that I have to use a CDX with the metal tabs on the side, but I've been noticing some significant price differences between even those.

 

P/N 15055250 doesn't come up on GM Parts Direct website. I assume it's been superceeded by 15122617. It lists for $608 and they sell it for $300.

 

Then I found this CDX on eBay, also with the metal tabs (p/n 15110393).

 

eBay Item

 

The response to one of the questions listed in the description states that it's from a 2005 year model of some sort. It's also listed on GM Parts Direct, but lists for $412 and sells for $206.

 

So what's different between these two units? And which do I need to buy for my 2003 Yukon with Non-Lux Bose system?

As long as the CDX in question has the metal tabs on the side, it will work in the 2003 and up Class II data-bus equipped trucks. GM tends to use many different part numbers for parts that are (basically) identical. That changer in that ebay auction will suit you just fine!

Ive also bought the harness wiring for a cd changer in the future (6 disc slot in dash). Should I hook this on up now to my HU so i dont have to pull it out an connect it when/if i put then changer in? I would have to do the wiring pin adjustments correct?

Thanks for all the info. :tear:

Problem with getting the non lux HU. What are the correct part numbers for the lux amp? Anyone have one for sale? The numbers I have are: 1519992, 15199884, 15112662, and possible 15188044.

Are there any others?

I have a 2005 silverado with the bose system in it, and I want to upgrade it to the navigational unit. Do I need to have the luxary amp and if so what is the stock #'s. Can someone please give me all the information that I need (part #;s) so I can get this up and going

Ok, thanks man. I got a lux one so now, im hunting a lux amp lol. None on ebay unfortuantly, so im thinking of getting a new one, any advantages to a new one? besides it costing a lot more, big disadvantage.

actually.... its best to buy a used one... That way you are sure it has already been programmed and is configured correctly. However if you cant find ANY on ebay or anything, programming the amp is not a big deal, but it just will make the dealer a little weary and he will maybe be a bit reluctant at first. Search ebay with really general terms... I use "Bose amp" "bose amplifier" and "gm bose" "Escalade amp" "Escalade amplifier" "denali amp" "denali amplifier". Try those search terms... Hope that helps you out!!

    • Your tire pressure issue may just be batteries, you can reset them using tge Ing switch (I think) and the owner's  manual. ChatGTP will b e a faster, better help than Google.
    • The thinking is that starting out in a higher gear makes it easier to avoid applying excessive torque when pressing the gas pedal. In a modern 4wd truck with 4 low and a limited slip or locking rear end, I would use 4 low and try to crawl up the ramp. Sometimes if they are too slippery, you have to back up to let the boat have some bouyancy, and then accelerate briskly to get some momentum to help you pull the through the slippery parts. 
    • I have a Retrax pro that I first had on my 2020 chevy and transferred it to my current GMC.  It stays in the garage most of the time, so hard for me to judge it's long term weather resistance.  It still works perfectly, been very durable.  It doesn't see oil patch usage, but it's not a mall queen.  It keeps most things mostly dry (small leaks) and the security of it is enough to slow someone down but not keep them out for long.  I would buy one again, it works for me.     
    • Thanks to the convenience of Amazon, I was able to get a few things done to the truck today.  I installed Carquest Premium oil and air filters with five quarts of Mobil1 High Mileage 10-30 along with a quart of Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 I already had.  The latch for the flip up center console lid was broken so I replaced it along with the power mirror switch.  I found my push retainer assortment this morning and reattached the plastic under the bumper and it was only held on with a few screws and retainers.  Then I programmed a new remote keyless entry fob so I can lock my dog in the truck when I take her out with me (I've got to keep the air going for her since it's been in the 100s).  Finally, I ordered some LED interior bulbs and replaced the reading lamps.  The front lights are working fine while one of the back lights only works intermittently and the other not at all.   While under the truck, I found the source of at least one of the noises: the sway bar links need replacing.  I ordered a set of Suspension Dudes links with Code Red bushings.  Never heard of them, but they're made in the USA and have decent reviews.  While making yet another Amazon order, I went ahead and added a set of front tow hooks.  I went with red, since that's the color of the sway bar link and bushings and it should look decent enough on a black and chrome truck.  Speaking of which, it doesn't bug me much, but the passenger side mirror has a chrome cap while the driver side doesn't, so eventually I'll make them match one way or another.  Oh, and I ordered a $20 TPMS reset tool.  No idea if it will do anything for my sensors but it was cheap and will work for the Ford Transit Connect as well.     For tradition's sake, I ordered a new oil change wrench.  I kept the Snap-On 9/16"x15mm GM wrench I bought when I was 18 in the 2006 GMC from the time I bought that truck until the truck was lost.  While I was tempted, there's no need to spend $80 for a new SO wrench, or even $50 with shipping for a used one on Ebay.  I just bought a Duratech 15mm extra-long ratcheting wrench to do the job as needed.  It works, and if I like that wrench enough, I'll buy the set.  
    • The recall is for exactly this issue - those drain holes combined with the limited environmental capability of the tailgate electronics card inside the tailgate were a problem. The “safety issue” was the potential for the tailgate to spontaneously open, but all kinds of tailgate misbehavior can occur from water contamination of that control card.    There is no real fix yet. The initial recall just disabled the tailgate. Later, when parts became available, they would replace bad parts with new parts of the same bad design. My dealer is going nuts because the few times I let them get their hands on my truck, my tailgate is off due to a slide-in camper installation. They really want to cut my tailgate wires, but I won’t give them the chance. I will let them get their dirty hands on it when a real fix (redesign) is available.  My tailgate, which works just fine with sealant plugging the drain holes, will remain safe in a dry storage crate until then.
