Does anyone know if the stock cluster can be reinstalled back into the truck after the new Denali cluster has been programmed and installed?  Not that I foresee a reason to ever switch back to stock, but I'm just curious if it would work.  I'm guessing no, but I thought I'd ask.  I bet only one part number can be attached to each VIN.

Yes, you can put your original cluster back in as long as it's still programmed to your vehicle.  The clusters are programmed to the vehicle (VIN), not the vehicle to the cluster if that makes since.

Thanks to Mr. Chris White I now have a Denali gauge cluster in my 2016 Sierra SLT. Once he did his programming it was plug and play. Everything works just like it does in My wife's 2016 Yukon Denali

You’ve been asking and we’ve been listening. Granted it took longer than anyone would have liked we are changing up our operations a bit to hopefully make things easier on everyone; especially the con

Makes perfect sense, thank you!  I'll keep my stock cluster stored away in case I ever want to reinstall it later.  

 

Now, if FedEx will just hurry up and get here so I can turn it right back around to Chris!  :)

 

I got the cluster from Specmo and they are only about 10 minutes from Chris.  I tried to get them to ship it across town to Chris to save me time and money on shipping, but they said they don't drop-ship.  Oh well.  Now it's coming from Michigan to Louisiana, back to Michigan the same day I get it, and back to Louisiana.  :lol:

Hey gang just a heads up, while this is literally the first line in our Terms and Conditions it bears repeating again: DO NOT SHIP USPS IF YOU WANT YOUR STUFF IN ONE PIECE. I'm not sure what they do with them here but they are AMAZINGLY good at breaking the lenses. We've had a rash of people not heeding the warning that end up damaged. 

 

Also bubble wrap unless it fills the whole damn box may not be enough, wrap these suckers in foam just in case; trust me this is good advice either with our without USPS.

 

Thanks :)

I can attest to what Chris is saying. UPS was used both ways (not USPS). When I received it back from him, the lens was broken. You could tell something had been ever so gently “placed” on top of the box. The box looked a bit like an accordion on one end.

I just discovered a potential issue...

 

I have gotten a "Service Rear Park Assist" message on my cluster a couple of times.  The graphic and camera are working on the 8" Infotainment screen and it is beeping as normal, but there is no graphic popping up on the new Denali cluster like it did on the stock one.  

 

Anyone else have this issue?

Hmmm this is an interesting one of course because of the timing. So a few things that may help. #1 Rhe cluster IS programmed for park assist if you are seeing that message otherwise it would be turned off IE trucks built without it and we've done plenty both ways without anyone else reporting this issue.

 

That said there IS a UPA module update for SOME 2017's and without knowing which part number module you have (theres like 20) I can't say for sure but that may be it as well. Worst case if you want us to checkout the programming in the cluster just to rule it out we're happy to do so on the house. The good news is there are VERY low odds its the cluster hardware; I've only seen one bad one thus far out of a bazillion of this family we've done.

MVI has programmed my HMI to support OEM DVD/Blu-Ray playback.  Is there anything in the HMI relating to the park assist that may be the cause?  It worked perfectly with the old cluster...I guess I could put it back in to see if it works....if it does, then we know it's the Denali cluster. 

 

Can you tell me where to find the park assist module so I can see which one it is?

This is something we should continue via email as to not clutter up this thread; thanks!

Thats strange, I always perfer USPS, when shipping something fragile, and I still make sure its properly protected. I despise UPs because it doesn't matter how well I package something it somehow always ends up being damaged .

They lost someone’s cluster just last week. They have lost about ten grand worth of stuff over the years :(

Im looking for a 2016 tahoe cluster with the blue/green lights, I ordered one from gmpartsdirect.com but they refunded my money saying they cannot provide clusters at the moment. Anyone have any idea where I can order it from? Looking for part #84254166

If gmpartsdirect can't get it, then I'd assume they won't sell it without an exchange, if it is possible.  Dealerships can order it but you'll have pay the core charge since you won't have the same cluster to return.  It may be on backorder too.  It took a few months for me to get mine about a year ago because of backorder.
