I am the same..07 Sierra Crew Cab, but didn't come with the full DIC system...
Thanks...
Thanks for your help...this is really of great interest to me!
DIC upgrade
My only question, is why the heck don't they just install it in all trucks if that's all it is??????
I pulled open my dash today, and sure enough, the harness is there, so I am guessing I would be good to go...
What a great forum!
Anyone have any similar experiences with alarms going off for no apparant reason? It's not too cold out, the batteries are fully charged, and there's no unusual weather or earthquakes going on? Driving me crazy. Don't want to disable the alarm and be vulnerable to fuel thieves! Anyone got any ideas?
Also the 15 amp fuse on the airbag circuit blows. This circuit has the following list of controlled functions. I used to be able to replace it and the circuit would work for several weeks or even longer. Now it lasts several minutes and does not seem to blow for any reason.
1. the compass and thermometer in the rear view mirror.
2. the auto dimming function.
3. All chimes.
4. Airbags.
thanks
Personally, I'd check the power connections first. That is where the guy is getting the power for the lights, etc and go from there. Could be he has a few of them crossed or all connected to the same place. Watch for splices as the factory doesn't do that only diy installers.
Did you get any aftermarket add-ons or did you get another alarm to supplement the factory? If you did, most of them don't work well with GM vehicles. I went and had a Viper put in instead of the Factory. Much better protection.
Replaced the fuse and the bulbs and rt signal still won't flash (and markers lights are dead), so I'm assuming that's the problem!
Thanks!
Thanks ahead of time!

I have not ordered them or tried them yet but I may... I certainly do not want to buy the entire air control module just for the bulbs.
I tried a bypass module, but when I called the manufacture for DIY help they told me their product is not a solution to get around the engine immobilization, i.e. fuel pump shuts down. They said mom & pop alarm shops usualy have a "creative" way around this problem, but I can't find anyone locally that knows how to jump around the system to this problem so it goes away for good.
Thanks!
Help from anyone else would be greatly appreciated too.
Bought that 2008 GMC Sierra SLE Crew Cab Z71 4x4 and really like it. Now had an extra hundred avaiable to spend, so I contacted dealer parts yesterday, and they said the remote start "clicker" is a whopping $195, plus there is a $133 labor charge to install it on my enabled truck.
Is anyone familiar with someone who added the clicker to a remote start enabled truck? I think I may have been misled or perhaps asked a wrong question. Want to talk (better educated) with salesman when he returns about our original sales conversaion. Thanks. -ray
Now better educated, I learned that GM part 17801236 at $195 comes with two remote-start clickers (technically about $100 each) and like spare keys must be specially coded to the truck by a technician using special tools, something an owner can't do, thus a labor charge for several hours work.
So, I wasn't misled, just asked wrong questions before I bought a truck model without the "complete" remote start option. Live and learn. My salesman was correct.
i have silverado 99 extended cabien. there is a message in message center "cargo lamp on" but it is not working. also, interior lights not working also. please help me to get solution. fuses are ok.
