2006 Chevrolet Questions and Answers


  • Will LED Light of the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller Stay on and Drain Battery, 2006 Chevy Silverado
  • The light you are seeing on your Prodigy Brake Controller # 90185 will stay on for fifteen minutes after the controller sees its last activity. It only draws a few millivolts so you would not need to worry about your vehicle battery draining. If you let it sit for fifteen minutes you should see the light go away. The light should turn green once you connect your trailer connector from your vehicle to your trailer.

  • 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Installation Kit for RBW Lil Rocker and 2006 Chevy Silverado 2500HD
  • If it is the RBW Lil Rocker 5th wheel trailer hitch that you have it will fit in Reese standard above the bed rails. However, we cannot recommend mixing rail and bracket manufacturers because they have not been tested together and the capacity will be unknown. I recommend using a Reese custom 5th wheel installation kit for your 2006 Chevy Silverado 2500HD. Custom kits install in less time and require less drilling for installation when compared to semi-custom or universal kits. The correct R

  • Trailer Running Lights Not Working When Connected to 2006 Chevrolet Silverado
  • Step one in troubleshooting your trailer running lights is to isolate the problem to either the tow vehicle or the trailer wiring. You will need a circuit tester such as the Quickee #3808 or equivalent. I suggest you review the included article on troubleshooting trailer wiring as this provides a lot of useful guidance on the steps to identify the source of the problem. Start by disconnecting the trailer from the tow vehicle. With the Silverado lights on, test the pin on the truck 4-way conne

  • The Reese Weight Distribution System with Sway Control # RP66153 you referenced for your 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer and the trailer for your 2352 Bayliner trophy boat is a compatible fit. The Reese system has a GTW capacity of 10,000 lbs and a tongue weight capacity of 400-800 lbs. It fits a 2-inch trailer hitch with a maximum rise of 6-1/2 inches and a maximum drop of 1-1/4 inches. You will need to determine the fully-loaded and ready-to-tow tongue weight of your trailer. When calculating GT

  • Installation of Reese Rubber Bumpers # 30536 on a Reese Fifth-Wheel Trailer Hitch
  • The Reese Replacement Rubber Bumpers # 30536 are intended for the side of the hitch closest to the cab. The pin head screw goes through the center of the rubber bumper and a speed nut goes through the bottom. I have provided links to the installation instructions for this item as well as a video showing how it is put together. You can see the installation of the bumpers at the 1:35 minute mark of the video.

  • Will CIPA Universal Fender Mount Mirror # 11750 Fit 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer LS
  • Since the CIPA Fender Mount Mirror # 11750 is a universal mount mirror, you should have no problem attaching this to your 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer LS. Please keep in mind that while this mirror will fit either side of your truck, they are sold individually, so you will have to purchase 2 if you want a mirror for both sides. Another option if your vehicle doesn't have the body cladding on the bottom portion of the door to add to its thickness is the CIPA Deluxe Door Mount Mirror # 11650. It

  • Will Installing Curt # C15702 on 2006 Silverado 2500HD Interfere with Larger than Stock Spare Tire
  • Curt does not have that measurement available, but you can determine this for yourself by taking some measurements from the underside of your truck. Using the diagram I edited for you, locate the weldnut that would serve as the rear-most attachment point for the hitch. From the center of this bolt hole, measure rearward toward the bumper six inches. From that point, measure forward to the closest point of the differential. If this distance is greater than the diameter of your spare tire, then

  • Will Husky 5th Wheel Base Rails, Part #HT31415-323, Fit 16K Husky Slider Hitch in 2006 Silverado
  • The Husky Custom Base Rail Kit you reviewed, part # HT31415-323, is a correct fit for your Husky slider and 2006 Chevrolet Silverado with 6-1/2 foot bed so long as it is not a flare-side or step-side bed. The complete kit includes base rails, custom-fit under-bed brackets and all required hardware for installation. Since this is a custom 4-bolt kit, its installation requires less drilling and will take less time than typical 10-bolt universal kits. If your Silverado has a factory 7-way at th

  • No Power to Trailer Brake Controller Install on a 2006 Silverado 1500
  • First, make sure that your # 3015-P harness is pinned out correctly. The red wire should be in the bottom left location (if looking at the back of the end that plugs into the truck). Directly next to the red wire should be the blue wire. Above the blue wire, in the middle right slot, should be the black 12 volt wire. And in the upper right should be the ground. I have incldued a picture that should help. On a 2006 Chevy Silverado it is possible that you will need to make some connections unde

  • Comparing Round Bar Reese Strait-Line Weight Distribution RP66087 to the Trunnion Bar Style
  • The difference between the Reese round bar Strait-Line weight distribution system # RP66087 and the trunnion bar version, part # RP66083, is going to be ground clearance. The round bars hang down lower, so trunnion bars are a better option for low vehicles such as minivans. You should not have a ground clearance issue with your 2006 Chevrolet Silverado. There used to be a more noticeable difference in weight capacity between the two bar styles years ago, but designs have changed to a point

  • Setting Up a Pro Series Weight Distribution and Sway Control System
  • There are a few reasons why you might appear to need longer chains. First, it should be noted that typically you want 5 links from the hanger to the chain. There are several factors that could lead to the chains not being long enough. First, if you have a tall frame, you may need more links so that the bars are not making contact with the frame. If the frame is taller than 6 inches, you will want to use different chain hangers, # RP58305. Another factor that could lead you to believe longer

  • As long as you have a 6-1/2 ft bed on your 2006 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD the Curt Hitch # C15321 will work for you. If you have an 8 ft bed you would want a Curt Hitch # C15313.

  • Is Premium Gas Required when Using an Edge EvoHT Programmer on a 2006 Chevy Avalanche
  • If you use the Extreme power level on your Edge EvoHT # EP26050 you will need to run premium grade gasoline. This setting will advance your timing and lean your air to fuel ratio out to the point that if you run regular octane gas you will see spark knock which can damage your motor.

  • K-Source Towing Mirrors Option for a 2006 Chevy TrailBlazer
  • We have a universal towing mirror by K-Source that should work on your 2006 Chevy Trailblazer, but the K-Source Custom Towing Mirrors # KS80800 that you referenced is not a confirmed fit so I would not recommend it for you. Check out the K Source Universal Clip-On Extra Large Towing Mirror # KS3891. This is a universal K-Source mirror that should work well for you.

  • Can DeadBolt Locks # 40107 and # 7691 Be Keyed Alike
  • After speaking to my contact at DeadBolt, I have found the DeadBolt Trailer Coupler Lock # 7691 and the DeadBolt Hitch Receiver Lock # 40107 you referenced can be keyed alike for your convenience. While different items, both are DeadBolt locks and have the same locking cores and therefore can be keyed alike. To do this, select the Keyed Alike option from the drop-down menu beneath the cost information on the product pages for both items.

  • Is the Titan BrakeRite Waterproof
  • In order for something to be waterproof it needs to be able to be submerged under water for a certain amount of time and not allow any water in. I spoke to my contact at Titan and he informed me that the Titan BrakeRite EHB Electric-Hydraulic Actuator is water resistant, but not water proof. What this means is that as long as you do not submerge this unit under water you should be fine. It will withstand rain but you would not want to let it get submerged. These get used on boat trailers a

  • Gooseneck Rail Kit for a 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 6-1/2 or 8 foot Bed
  • The Hide-A-Goose Rail Kit Only, # 50111, that you referred to is the correct installation kit for your 2006 Chevrolet 1500 Silverado with 6-1/2 or 8 foot bed, but according to the manufacturer this kit will work with the older 63102 hide a goose head only and will not work with current model head, # 9465. The older head is no longer available. If you currently have a Hide-A-Goose head that is older than approximately 2008, then this may be the kit you need. The current gooseneck trailer hitch

  • Adapter to Tow a 5th Wheel Trailer with a B and W Square Shank Turnover Ball Trailer Hitch
  • B and W does have a square shank turnover ball gooseneck hitch with the ball that pins in at one spot on the ball shank. If you determine that is what you have then the Curt X5 adapter, # 16310, would be correct and it is compatible with a Reese slider 5th wheel trailer hitch. However. it would be less expensive to replace the gooseneck hitch with a 5th wheel installation kit (provided you do not use the gooseneck hitch). This is also safer because there are less components chained together l

  • Wiring in a Camper Shell 3rd Brake Light on a 2006 Chevy Silverado 1500.
  • The main trailer wiring harness is located under the truck bed, usually above the spare tire. There is usually a socket for your trailer connector to plug into, but if you peel back the wire loom you will find a light blue wire further up in the wiring harness that is intended for use for a third brake lamp on a camper shell. I attached a couple pics to help you see where the wire is at.

  • Prodigy Brake Controller Only Shows n.c Code after Charging the Vehicle Battery
  • There are certainly a few troubleshooting steps that we can try that will tell us where the issue lies. Changing or charging a vehicle battery with the brake controller connected can cause different and random issues. It could be possible that something in the brake controller was damaged during the charging process if the battery cables were still attached to the battery. The first step that we will want to take is to reset the brake controller. This is done by simply unplugging the brake c

  • Replacement Mounting Hardware for a 1200 Pound Fulton Swivel Trailer Jack
  • I would need to know specifically what model Fulton jack you have. It is possible that you may need # F500286 or another similar part but I can only determine the correct part, if available, with the jack model. There are several Fulton swivel jacks that bolt on and are rated for 1,200 pounds so I want to be sure to point you to the right part. The model number should be on a sticker on the outer jack tube. The hardware listed above has 2 rectangular brackets, 4 nuts, and 4 bolts. I have incl

  • Upgrading from a Pro Series 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch to a Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch
  • You can upgrade to a head that has a 2-piece jaw that will provide excellent jaw-to-king-pin contact. You will also need to upgrade to a different cross member as well to complete the conversion. For this you will want to get a Replacement Head with Crossmember for Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # RP30047A. You will be able to retain the legs and rails of your kit, but you will need to use the # RP30047A for the crossmember and head for the hitch. This head does have the 4-Way pivot that you a

  • Adding a 7-Way Trailer Connector and Brake Controller to a 2006 Chevy Avalanche
  • Installing a 7-Way trailer connector on your 2006 Chevy Avalanche is actually going to be pretty easy. All you will need is # 30955. Even if the Avalanche did not come with a factory 7-Way, the wiring is still present and you will just need to connect this harness to the truck wiring. Under the truck, usually located above the spare tire, there is a harness with a plug on it like in the picture I have included (the picture is also lower on the product page for # 30955). The 30955 harness will
