How to Watch Netflix in Your GM Yukon Denali Tahoe Suburban 2015-2018

A little tip on how to keep the little ones occupied on long trips using Onstar's unlimited Wi-Fi hotspot and a Roku Express+. Make sure you get the + version that includes the RCA cables. Link below.
✅ Roku Express+ - bit.ly/RokuExpressPlus-Walmart
Update: I have since bought a rca-hdmi cable and found that only the first generation Fire TV stick works with it. The 2nd generation for some reason does not. I used the Alexa remote from the 2nd gen I bought with the first gen stick and now have Alexa in the 'Burb! For ease of doing this, I'd still recommend the Roku Express PLUS since you don't need any additional wires.

    Ok. I bought a Roku Express plus for my 2016 Suburban and I can confirm that it works through the Aux and works fine. I couldn't get it to power the Roku through the USB port though and had to use the power plug adapter.

    Actually, it's better if you install a Roku2 or Roku3 instead, because you can plug a thumbdrive into either one with all your MP4 movies on it to watch on long trips where you don't have wi-fi access. I have it installed in my Town 'n Country with a 500gb portable hard drive and over 200 movies on tap to keep the kids occupied and can still watch Netflix and Hulu once in wi-fi range again! It does requiring some easy wiring connections but well worth it!

    I have a quick question. I bought the Roku Streaming Stick for my 2017 Yukon XL which has a HDMI port. I have set it all up and the screen comes on and I can scroll through the menu and select Netflix or Disney now or whatever but when it goes to play the video the screen is blank but I can HEAR the video. Also, I can pause it and the pause line at the bottom shows up but no video of what we are actually watching. Any ideas why this is happening? I have selected automatic detection for the Roku screen settings and still no go.......Can anyone out there help me?

    You would need the rca cables if your vehicle doesnt have hdmi plug-ins. Then, you gotta make sure theres also power to it. Other than that, you should just need to put it on rear aux.

    You can. You need to add in a converter from the hdmi out on the firestick to the converter which should be hdmi (input) to rca (output). I think most of the coverters that you'll find have a usb male for power but it will need to be plugged into 110 volt 2 prong normal house plug to provide sufficient power to run... i think :)
