That’s a thought. Would I need to take the seat cover off to check that?
What did you do to your 2015-2020 K2XX Tahoe/Yukon Today?

Sometimes you get lucky by checking under the seat. Others may be able to be more specific where the most probable point would be.

I've had both the BCM and HMI done by WAMS. Everything works flawlessly... very useful.
I just bought a HMI today and going to send it to wams when it gets here for a full unlock and 2023 maps. bought the gps+tv one, mine is io6 but only has onstar nav.
all I need is the hmi programmed and the gps antenna is on the way from china for $10. then I should be good to go with a few more features I don't have without having to go with a aftermarket head unit. I don't think the onstar nav has a gps antenna but if it does the antenna I bought was only $10 so no biggie.
what did you have them do to the bcm?

I have a 2016 Yukon XL Denali so for the HMI, I mainly did it for video in motion and to have the rear camera activated while driving, etc. The rear camera in motion for the SUVs is different that the trucks so I had to modify some of the wiring in the liftgate and camera but I was aware of that hurdle. The HMI still needed to have that enabled so I can select it while driving.
I think the other few items for the HMI unlock were: Nav Entry in motion as well as DVD/Bluray and Video Files from any USB Storage media type, Access Videos from USB Storage using the Media Button, etc.
As for the BCM, it was unlocked for:
Fog lamps remain on with High Beam
Fog lamps no longer disable Intellibeam
Fog lamps remain on with Intellibeam/Auto High Beam enabled
Tap to pass (turn signal activation) bumped up from 3 to 4 flashes
Windows down from key fob changed to Driver and Passenger front Windows only
Window down from key fob changed to allow “Vent” setting (release key fob to stop window motion prior to complete lowering)
Driver (and passenger on utilities) window UP from key fob (hold lock to raise)
I see, I just used a fleece all lights on resistor module for $20 to keep the fogs on with highs or flash to pass
i'm to fidgety with the remote in my pocket to have window functions enabled, I would probably come out in the morning to discover my windows were down and some clown ransacked it or it rained or something ridiculous....
I'm mostly doing it for the nav function if needed and video in motion for the kids to watch something if we roadtrip somewhere
my out of pocket cost is $385.00
kind of poked around trying to find the right dvd/bluray drive but havent narrowed it down yet I think it needs a harness also but not a big deal 99.999% of any video is going to be on a thumb drive or card anyway

I used a different website but only added apple car play to my 2015. They offered pretty much all the same stuff as WAMS but I was being cheap and didn’t want the extra stuff. They also threw in 2019 or 2020 maps I think (which is outdated at this point)
Overall, it maintained a stock look and functions as expected. No glitching or lag. I’ve had it for about 3 years now.
thanks I was mostly concerned with the video in motion and perhaps having to do some rigamorrow function to keep it working while driving or something which can get annoying real fast. Otheriwse it should work just like oem does. If I was going to go aftermarket the unit I have been looking at is like $1,000
with a motorola ma1 I get wireless AA on the stock radio and I can just unplug it if I don't want to use it so it all works for me just fine
already upgraded the speakers and a couple amps can't complain.
