    I do not feel like I represent any sort of mechanically inclined population, but I am capable of following clear instructions on a youtube video and asking a guy at AutoZone for the tools mentioned in the video! I have a 2017 Sierra 1500 SLT that I was trying to get towing mirrors installed on without losing my powerfolding function (I routinely have to park in a garage so this is a big deal to me). After paying my local GMC dealer $300 to install mirrors that they THEN afterwards told me couldn't retain the power folding function I screamed into a pillow and then searched google for answers. Phil knocks it out of the park with this video and I ordered a harness from him that did the trick GMC said they couldn't do on a 1500 model truck. I was so happy after getting these things in and working that I asked him where I could post some positive feedback. Well deserved - and thank you Phil!

Yep i forgot to plug the passenger side window motor plug back in. I didn't have to take the entire door panel off< but still a pain. Totally my fault though.

    Any mirror upgrade will not be plug an play. I have helped over 100 members on the GM-Trucks Forum (Link in the description up above). GM uses a shared pin slot method withe the circuits routed to different slots on the other end (end that connects to the door hinge connect). I make and sell plug and play harnesses to members on that forum. Feel free to check the link out an PM there or ask questions on the thread if you need more info. It is a very comprehensive thread.

    Matthew, for tow mirror upgrades, the pins you want to look for are pins 9, 11, and 41. For anyone wanting to upgrade to tow mirrors, you will need to swap your door harnesses out OR modify your existing harnesses to accommodate the lighting. In the door jamb connector, Pin 9 is the Courtesy (Cargo Lamp/Revere Lamp), Pin 11 is the Park Lamp (Clearance/Running Lamp), and Pin 41 is the Turn Signal. This is the same for both sides. Since GM shares some of these slot locations for other purposes, it is a requirement for anyone upgrading to swap harnesses of modify your existing. IF, you do not have these pins on the cabin side mate connector, you WILL need the additional RZY Jumper Harness (Part #23387133). This is generally a requirement for ALL 2014 and some early 2015 trucks. For later 2015 models and on, the RZY Jumper Harness is not a requirement and only door harnesses (or existing door harness modifications) are required. For the DIY'ers out there, I do offer a DIY "Kit" that will come with what you need to make this modification yourself.

In the link above, i explain the need for the RZY Jumper Harness. Your truck will not have the tow mirror light circuit pins present in the door jamb, going into the cabin and under the hood. Take a look at the first post in the thread above. It'll everything you need to know about this upgrade.

    2 Reasons - First, if you didn't change your door harnesses, the amber running light is not working the way its supposed to. It's supposed to be on anytime the headlamps/park lamps are on. If you kept the same harnesses, they are acting like your old puddle lamp where they only come on at night and when you unlock your door. Second, since your truck is a 2014, your door jamb connector on the cabin side is missing pins 9 and 11. These are the cargo and running light circuits. Check out my RZY Jumper Harness Video - Part # 23387133. That video shows when/why its needed.

    Hey Jim, IA Auto only seems to carry their own after market mirrors. If you are looking to go to a DQS Mirror, these are power fold, mirror mirror, etc., the closest equivalent from 1A Auto is 1AMRP01786. This is the same mirror I tested in this video. I will caution that the mirror connector is not pinned like Factory GM DQS mirror though an required customization to the mirror connector itself. I also make custom Plug and Play harness to accommodate these mirrors to make them FULLY functional (including the bonus puddle lamp that this model comes with). Feel free to contact me via PM in the link up in the description. Thanks!

    I can build the harness as needed for the mirror. Reverse Tilt is a seat memory dependent function so if you have that now (which you should since you're LTZ), that will retain so long as your new aftermarket mirror supports mirror memory. What do you mean "extend outwards"? You mean telescope or fold? You an also reach me at HarnessDR.com. Use the "contact us" feature.

  • @philgamboa2906

    @philgamboa2906

    7 жыл бұрын

    Yes sir. Towing Mirrors use Pins 1 & 2 in the mirror connector for Park and Cargo Lamps, and pin 13 for the turn signal. On a DL3 Mirror, Pins 1 is used for Puddle, Pin 2 is used for one of the auto dim circuits, and 13 is for turn. These circuits route to a different spot on the X500/X600 Door Jamb connector. So you will need new harnesses if you want to move to towing mirrors.

    For all 2014 trucks, you'll need the RZY Jumper Harness Part # 23387133 to make the connections from the X500/X600 door jamp connector to their respective locations. Turn Signals (if missing) land in the BCM. Cargo Lamps land in the X61A Junction Box. This is the black box to the left of the Brake Pedal. Park Lamps go through the firewall and land in the X50A Under the hood Fuse Block. This is also the same is you have an early 2015 truck (AVF - RPO). If you are able to remove the door jamb connector an inspect the body side of the X500/X600, you'll want to see if you have Pins 9, 11, and 41. If you have them, then it will be Plug and Play with my custom harness. If you check out the link on the description, I have a photo showing this detail. Feel free to post comments or PM there as well. Thanks!

    16lcisneros - When upgrading from smaller DL8/DL3 Mirrors to Tow Mirrors, you will need new harnesses. I build these for each application. If you install the mirrors without swapping harnesses, the power adjust and heat will work. None of the lighting will. If you get my custom harnesses, all of the lighting will work, Plug and Play. You’ll also be able to gain power fold (Switch needed).
