Changing from Chevy blue to GMC red theme HMI

Hot

Featured Replies

  • Contributor

I've change everything over from the chevy blue to GMC red except for radio display which to my understanding is the HMI.

 

What would be my best option for getting the right theme but also all the options I currently have? The newest HMI from a GMC with that theme I've been able to find is a 2016 and a HMI 2.0 

 

Do I need to find a GMC one and then change vin to match my truck or can my 2.5 HMI be programmed to have that theme?

    Alright, here you go...  I gave you a few.  Stock is, completely stock.  Anything with -UL is unlocked (video in motion, warning screen frequency 255 times instead of like 8, and a few other things).

That's going to be a tricky one. If you have an HMI of 2.5, you can use eBay.com to look for GMC for sale, as most sellers list the VIN in the listing. Then, use those VINs in GM SPS service to program your HMI until you find a theme and specs that work. The only thing is, without a GM SPS dealer account, testing all those VINs will cost a lot.  An alternative would be to use the Acdelco VIN slot trick to download only the calibration files from Adelco and then manually create the HMI DPS archive file then program the HMI using DPS

@codebuilder is a genius when it comes to HMI coding, maybe he can help.

 

Acdelco VIN slot trick.

Post your VIN and I'll see what I can match up for you.

I think I found a VIN that will match, but I need the part number of your HMI to double check.

 

PIN for your VIN is 6908

Sorry, I'm still pretty new to this. Is that file ready to be flashed with DPS or do I need to build an archive file with those?

You will need to build the archive, and I included the GM PDF to number and label them correctly

It looks like I need more work learning to build the files. I got the file creator but running into hardware issues. Once I've got it figured out and can try it I'll let you know how it worked. Thank you for the help so far!

Sorry, hadn't been around for a bit!  I'll take a quick look at that build.

Ahhh, you're trying to do what I'm did....  it's not that hard.  Ok, I've properly packaged the files BLKAGSG made you here.3GTU2NEC3HG244972-2017-GMC-Sierra-HMI-UL.zip3GTU2NEC3HG244972-2017-GMC-Sierra-HMI-Stock.zip

 

The -UL, I spoiled you and gave you the video in motion unlock, etc.

 

These should get you going.  So if I'm understanding correctly:

 

- Upgrading from an HMI 2.0 to 2.5?

- Changing from blue to red <- I had blue by mistake

 

If you already have an HMI 2.5 and you're simply wanting to switch to red, I just need to take your VIN (I see it above) then modify your calibration to the red theme.  It doesn't take me long.  

 

I have Corvette themed, Cadillac themed, blue, red, etc...  I'm running Corvette currently lol.

Give me 5 minutes, I'm just downloading the files for your VIN and going to build you a few to play with :).  I realized after I read the colours backwards lol

These are all packaged and ready to use in DPS.  Do not rename the files (they MUST match the .tbl file inside - sometimes the browser does (1), etc), and no need to extract.  Enjoy! 🙂

@NDCharlieHey how did you manage to change to a Red Cluster? I have a 17 Silverado I installed and programmed Red Denali cluster, no issues but the center screen turned blue after I drove it. I heard it could be due to the theme in the HMI module being blue and somehow that makes the cluster revert to blue as well??

One of the DIDs will flip the cluster colour but it doesn't change right away, it usually takes a power cycle to take effect. I'd have to dig but there's actually flags to make it from a truck to an SUV too.

Can you point me to the right direction of which DID? I saw you mentioned GMC red, could using something from a GMC have to do with it? from what I understand they both changed to blue in 2017anyway. Also I already changed it from an SUV to a truck.
