Do you know the DIC can display transmission temp? (Assuming you have the DIC buttons)
Of course it needs to be cycled to the trans temp display every time you restart the vehicle..
But if you only need it for towing or longer drives, it's not bad.

when I set mine it stays on transmission temp. no matter what unless I change it or disconnect the battery. I monitor it any time I am driving and have for years
same with the silverado and the wifes burb

Could be they changed the behaviour some years, but most likely I just mis-remembered..
Also could be my autosync device, which I wish would stay on whatever display I had at shutdown..

-IF- trans temp does not show for you, another member had to change his buttons.
Not clear if it was faulty buttons, or if there was some variation..
