    DUDE! Thank you so much for putting this on youtube! My iPhone XR wasn't charging on my '17 Silverado and I almost bought the part before I came across this video. It took me 10 minutes and my phone charges flawlessly now! So stoked. All I did was removed that little magnet in the center of the coil.

    Anyone try replacing the magnet with a larger one? Would that make it work better?

    It's a shame that slot is built for a micro phone and not a regular sized 2020+ phone. I wonder if popping out that silver piece would make it work.

    As the creator said in the pinned comment, this video is a bit out-dated and overly complex. GM made a new part for Chevy’s GMC’s, and Cadillacs It works perfect. Everything is plug and play! I made a video on my channel showing how to swap it in step by step if anyone seeing this is interested :) Shoutout to this guy tho for reverse engineering his own solution. Very impressive!

    All the way to today. This made it possible to charge my Iphone 11 Pro Max(with no case on it) and i did have to cut the + off of the pad and flip it but in emergencies it will work. I can't wait to be drving down the road and suprise my wife with the sound of a ding. haha. Now we just need someone to 3d print a larger plastic mold and a larger rubber pad! 2021 Here we are!

    • @kurtpetersen1478
      @kurtpetersen1478 3 роки тому

      Update. My wife still hasn’t noticed a couple of times me placing my phone down and it charging. Haha. Wonder how long it will take her. It seems that I can only start the charge when our suburban is turned on it doesn’t work if placed after. But if placed on before the car starts it works. Although it’s not as convenient as I’d like it is a great thing to have during an emergency.

    Great video! I purchased GM part #84526978 for my 2016 Chev Suburban. It was $116 at the Chev dealership, and came with a pigtail adapter in case you don't want to trim the existing plug. This Gen 2 module works great charging my son's iPhone X and my iPhone 11 right through their cases.

  • @di2082

    GM came out with a fix for this problem. Google GM part #84526978. I got mine from Tasca Parts. It’s a new module package that comes with a pigtail adapter. You gently pry open underside of console lid. Remove the 4 screws holding in the old module. Unplug old module. Plug new pigtail adapter into existing plug and into new module. Screw new module into place. Replace console lid cover. And it works perfectly. You’ll even see a charging icon on your radio screen. I have a 2017 Silverado High Country and it worked perfect, and only took 10 minutes and I’m no mechanic. You’ll only need some pry tools to work your way around console underside and slowly separate the clips and a T20 screwdriver for the 4 screws that hold module in place. It is literally plug and play.

    I have an iPhone XS. I purchased a module for the 2018 and spent $100 online to put in my 2017 GMC and the module went out in less than a year. So, 15 minutes could have saved me $100? Is it still working? Are there any repercussions with damage to anything, i.e. phone battery, etc?

    Not sure if this would help any one but I found this.. For certain model year 2015-2018 customers, GM Service Bulletin #18-NA-153 is available to upgrade your vehicle's wireless charger to have latest compatibility. GM's compatibility chart link: www.gmc.com/content/dam/gmc/na/us/english/index/gmc-life/all-stories/wireless-charging/02-pdfs/GM%20Wireless%20Charging%20Compatible%20Devices%20-%202019-08-30.pdf My wifes Galaxy S7 would never charge on her 15 Yukon Denali, was told it was defective and they would warranty it, until it came time to do it. Then the dealer said it was a compatibility issue and offered this service bulletin and quote to replace for an updated charging pad for $200.

    Shady GM putting obsolete parts in vehicles. I have a 2017 and I just called the dealership and they told me it only works with old phones like Galaxy 5 and it costs $500 to put that module in. I seen the part online as low as $60.

  • @bernhard8540
    @bernhard8540 4 роки тому

    that little magnet is just there to extend the range of the charger so it goes through more material but in most new phones it will just stop the charging because its considered a foreign object it used to work with the older style of charging but because of the newer fast charging it doesnt work very good video showing people how to do this for free instead of destroying their console to fit an aftermarket charger in it :) <3

    My updated wireless charger unit came with a receptacle extension cord so I did not have to modify the electrical connections. With the excess cable and receptacle I just tape them down flat against the unit and everything snapped into place.

      As far as I have seen and people have commented it works in the GMC and Chevy trucks...If the charger is in the center console theoretically it should work. keep in mind there is a chance a good dealer will swap the module for a 2018 , so check that as well.
