I have two questions for everyone.

 

1. I pulled my dash tonight to install my new nav unit. I found plugged into the back of the filler panel (Between the power outlets) a wire harness that is not being used. I wanted to know if it is for the Rear Park Assist, StabiliTrak or heated windshield Washer Fluid? Can any of these be added with this harness?My truck did not come with them.

2.I upgraded my mirrors to mirrors that have the power folding option. My old mirrors had one plug on the harness the new mirror has two. Can someone take a photo of what their controls look like that have power folding mirrors? I cannot find a place to plug the extra plug on the pass. side into. The extra plug is white and I can find no open spot to plug it into.

 

Thanks to everyone that wants to help!

I don't know, but you've got me thinking. Should I remove my dash to see what harnesses I have unused? Maybe this would be a nice way to add extras.... i like extras :sleep:

I currently have my dash completely torn apart to install automatic temperture control and found the same harness. I was wondering what it was for.

 

Hope someone here has the answer.

Let us know how how the auto climate conversion goes. Did you get the remote sensors and everything? How and where are you going to mount them? What all parts were required?

I got al the parts except for the connectors for the back of the ATC unit.

 

You need all of the following parts:

 

1 ATC Unit

4 Duct sensors

1 In Car Sensor(Aspirator) and Grille

1 Sun Load Sensor (replaces the light sensor on you dash)

Connectors and Wire

 

I only have $150 in parts so far. And the only left is a couple of connectors.

 

 

The in Car sensor goes in the headliner you have to cut a hole in it. But you cover it with the grille.

 

The Duct Sensor are for upper right, upper left, lower right, and lower left. They don't have to be mounted in any critical position.

 

Then it is a matter of wiring it all together.

The harnesses between the power outlets are for the stabilitrack, rear parking assist, and adjustable pedals. I think there is one more button but im not sure what for. My truck has the rear parking assist and adjustable pedals.

    • I’ve had several. The last was sold at the dealership hard with a soft top. They all leaked a little. The only one that didn’t was a topper. My supplier miss understood. It was supposed to be a painted match topper. I was getting ready for a trip couldn’t wait so I took it. It was easy to remove if needed and didn’t leak.
    • Very nice truck. I’m a strange one. I never considered trucks family vehicles. Work or personal vehicles for men. Watching kids or ladies climb into trucks can be amusing. I tried for retirement but the wife didn’t take long with her displeasure. That led to our first SUV. Now a minivan. People really miss the boat on that one. Even a midsized truck was vetoed. My wife’s car is off limits. That’s ok by me. I could do a full sized car ok. But for an old guy you have to sit first then bring the legs in. Then spin towards the door put both legs out then stand up. Mini vans are just high enough to step in and sit. Step out and walk. I hear the Toyota Crown is kinda like that. I’ll try that sometime. Go ahead and laugh, you’ll be old someday. A regular cab truck. I’m kinda looking for an older GM V-8. The Ridgeline is OK. But we’re not exactly speaking the same language. It’s a looker. But I’m missing that GM feeling, an old GM.
    • For clarity: per the manufacturer the 6.6L takes 8 quarts of oil with a filter replacement. I always add that amount which puts near the top of the dipstick range. 
    • Looking to purchase a used Sierra and want to have a tonneau cover put on at the dealer if possible, to avoid the back-and-forth with shipping & delivery of a cover.  Does anyone have a tonneau cover they can recommend that is completely watertight?  I've had BakFlip MX4, Retrax, and it seemed like everything leaks water from light rain to a heavy downpour.   I've been asked by several clients to start a marketing business, I did marketing videos for them pro-bono over the past few years and they think I'd be great to do it professionally.  So the truck may have drones, laptops, cameras, and video production gear.  Everything is in Pelican cases, but I'm sure something will get wet such as paperwork or a backpack like I have experienced before.   The rest of the time this truck will be used for long trips towing a travel trailer, so I'd think a tonneau cover can also help if I'd like to equip the truck with bed rails to haul mountain bikes or a kayak.  I am even considering a topper if that would be best for the combined marketing/video/event production business & RVing use the truck will see.
    • Thank you.  I ended up passing on that truck, it was $29k with 99k miles and local to me (Illinois).  Played that game once before, passed a much better condition vehicle for one that was closer.  $10k in engine work and $6k in transmission work later, it never drove right, and by that point the age & mileage made it worth close to nothing.  I now remind myself, a plane ticket and an Uber is a lot cheaper than buying the local truck with issues and having buyer's remorse.   Now looking at this for $26k: https://southernwholesale.net/vdp/23915469/Used-2021-GMC-Sierra-1500-SLT-Crew-Cab-Short-Box-2WD-for-sale-in-Trussville-AL-35173 And AutoCheck looks good: https://autocheck.dealercarsearch.com/Default.aspx?VIN=EPWlh9Ow3ceghogyxJFSf4bAycMno2xr4%2fK1GUasMDw%3d&DealerId=25052   This one from Carmax is high ($32k), but some people swear by the Maxcare warranty: https://www.carmax.com/car-detail/27952269   And this one for $33k seems insanely high priced, but it got a new engine at 120k, and no mention of transmission work except for fluid changes: https://www.alejandrocars.com/inventory/2021-gmc-sierra-1500-127941   Just trying to not repeat my first used car purchase, being so underwater I had to sell it to a high school w/vocational shop class because nobody would buy a recently repaired lemon.
