    2019 Tahoe Front Camera?

    Could pick up a small 12vdc LCD screen and wire it to a cheap non-reversed image "backup camera" Not as streamline as feeding it thru the factory screen, but would be a low cost alternative. I had a setup like this on my Avalanche, to switch between color and Flir Thermal cameras in the front...

    2016 Yukon..Replacement key fob

    Dealer price is over $200 plus programming. There are plenty of OEM ones on eBay listed as "used" or "refurb" for much less. Just avoid once clearly marked as Aftermarket as they may not be as reliable

    Introduction/Question

    I picked up a few used ones on ebay, and was able to have them sent out to a company to "reset" them. Once I had them back in hand the pairing process was pretty easy to do thru the DIC

    Torque Converter

    Mine is in right now for exactly this @54k. Been a week so far, because a trans temp sensor was on backorder. Hope it resolves it, been considering a Model S 90d.

    Thanks! Big smile is what I'm going for. Rented a Tesla S 100d, and felt like I was driving a potato when I got back into my truck.

    Something missing problem solved on 15 Tahoe LT ,performance Peramide pack

    How are you making out with the Sprint Booster? I'm on my second unit trying to rule out a problem with a P2138 error. It runs fine (nicely aggressive) for awhile, but I feel like I'm sitting on a time-bomb, because when it throws the code the truck goes into low power mode. Fortunately I keep...

    Cargo Area Light Mod

    I have to pull the panel out to get pics of it wired up, and I'll sketch up how I wired in the switch. Here's how I wired each bulb in parallel. (This was just a mock up bulb, so assume the bulb is in already in place on the panel with the nut holding it in) 1) Bought a length of this cable...

    Cargo Area Light Mod

    Nice work! Inspired me to do mine last weekend. I spaced them at 6" and 17" from center, 1.25" back from the lift gate side. Also used an illuminated power button from Amazon http://a.co/b1mitvN mounted above the fuse panel area. Left a connector at the end of the line incase I add more down...

    Need help with getting a Key fob for a Yukon

    I bought a few used fobs on ebay. I used www.carkeysfast.com, and at the time he charged me $21 each to "reset" each used fob, included an uncut valet key blade and return shipping. He also offered to cut the valet key if you can povide the cut code (or he could obtain it for a few bucks as...

    GMC Denali tail lights on Escalade??

    Direct fit with minimal effort. Even the wiring harness connector is the same. I have OEM Escalade tails on my Yukon now and they stick out about 1/4" beyond the lower bumper cover, and only at the bottom ledge. That's the only misaligned portion, everything else is nice and flush along the...

    3d Printing

    Installed LCD headrests and the included bushings kit didn't fit. O.D. was either too large to fit the seat, or the I.D. was too large causing the metal to rattle. I have an AutoCAD seat from work and a MakerBot Replicator at home (sadly no lathe yet) Printed 4x and they worked like a champ.

    No acc in 2015 yukon denali?

    Got to experience Tesla Autopilot on a Model S 90d. Serious Sh*t your pants fear the first time changing lanes on it's own. After awhile I got comfortable with it on the highway, but it really shines in stop-and-go traffic

    Radio wouldn't turn off with truck. Fixed

    2015i Denali, iPhoneX Just an FYI incase anyone runs into this and can't shut their stereo down. Tonight after getting out of the truck the radio remained lit and on the navigation screen long after I closed the door and locked it. Climate control button backlighting also remained lit. At...

    emergency unlock / spare key?

    I bought a faraday pouch. http://a.co/cQtyTtm Inside I keep an extra smart fob (battery removed), small flat blade screw driver and spare batteries. The whole thing is buried deep inside one of my seats and tethered with some paracord. The pouch prevents the truck from sensing the smartfob...

    Qi Wireless retrofit with Amazon parts for $25 (iPhoneX confirmed)

    This tutorial illustrates how to gut the factory Qi charger and replace it with more reliable parts found on Amazon. I would image you could use the same steps to add it to a vehicle that did not come with it. I recently found a video on this forum showing how to remove a magnet from the OEM...

    iPhone 8 wireless charging

    . It's there, its under that thermal paste and black square. See the two leads coming off the coil. That's how mine originally looked, I had to pry it off the black housing (carefully) by flexing the plastic shell and working it with a heat gun.
