Yea you just ground to frame, I usually ground to wherever I’m mounting something. For the switched power there is a new fuse box you mount that has fuses for the switches. Depending on the location of the fuses, they can be either ignition switched or constant power. They are grouped switch 1 and 2 together and 3 and 4 so you could potentially have some stuff constant power and other stuff switched. Pretty slick!

Hey wondering if you had any issues with the fuses in switched ignition. My upfitter switches work when I have the fuses set on constant. If I have them on switched the relays don’t engage. Wondering if you ran into this and if you have any idea why this might happen. As working fine since I installed them and today it started acting up. Thanks.

I’m thinking something is defective then. What do you think it could be. The fuse block or the harness that goes from the fuse block to the switches? Just trying to see some opinions on this as the dealership is saying it’s not covered under warranty as I installed it my self

@AdamAT4 You are correct, you are missing the cover connector, it came in the package with mine!

Looking for the Harness (84497098) if anyone has one for sale or know where to get one. I have all the other parts but that one.

Has anyone put one in a 3.0 Duramax truck? My kit went in with no issues, with the exception of the cable from the battery to the fuse block. I know it's probably me, but I swear that my truck does not have the provision for passing the cable through the firewall where the directions state. It's probably there, but it's buried by a coolant reservoir for the turbocharger, the brake booster, and a couple of large wiring harnesses. Using a flashlight and inspection mirror, I just don't see that rubber grommet for putting the wire through on the driver's side. I do have one on the passenger side near the battery, which I think is on all of the trucks, and was considering just going in through there and routing the wire behind the glove box / center console to the connection point on the fuse block.

Tried GM Parts Outlet, got the same response "order cancelled because item is on back-order"

Frustrating to have all the parts except one to install the Aux switches.

Are there any updated instructions? these still say preliminary.

I've been busy and have not had time to install mine, but this weekend is rain in the forecast so may as well have a truck day.

I see you are in Alabama. Me too. I got mine from Bentley GMC in Huntsville. Their parts department said the part was on backorder, but that there were still ways to get the part. They got every single piece of the kit for me in two days. Their number is 256-536-2475.

Mine only has 4 wires, but there's 5 switches

I like how it gives you the snow prep 200A fuse, ill probably use that if I add a winch

Hey my f block kit is on back order and just wondering if you have any pictures of how you connected the power cable to the battery. I have everything else installed and just wanna get this working.

I just ran my cable to the battery box and connected to the fuse. The secondary fuses that would be part of the snowplow prep kit are also part of the upfitter switch kit.
