[HOW TO] Manage Radio Favorites - GMC IntelliLink - GMC Sierra

[@jacklarrison240]

You said the SLE was a loaner.. Is your personal truck a higher trim or lower? I just bought a Denali and it has the same screens... so now I'm wondering if it's a true denali or if it's upbadged😅😅

[@jacklarrison240]

It's a 2014, not a brand new one

[@fondupot]

They put that screen in pretty much all the trucks of that year. Except for worth trucks that got a smaller screen. My personal truck at that time was an SLT all terrain. You can have your VIN checked that will tell you if it’s a true Denali or if someone slapped Denali badges on it.

Just bought an 18 Sierra. Sirius works great but no am-fm. Works intermitently

[@Americanboy5150]

Do you just put the radio on a station you like and push and hold that square until it beeps or lights up ?Like you would on an older system.

[@fondupot]

AmericanBoy1 exactly yes.

[@debtheweb7175]

I have only 5 favorites on SiriusXM but for some reason the display is way up on the screen and I can’t see what is playing and info on the song.

[@fondupot]

Hold and Drag down from the top of the favorites bar.

[@debtheweb7175]

@@fondupot OMG I knew it was something easy! Thanks so much!

@@debtheweb7175 Glad to help! Enjoy your truck.

[@ManuelMoctezuma]

SPECMOC glad to help!

I just got a Loaded 2015 GMC Sierra SLT Z71 - My stations don't have the HD radio icon - How do you get HD Radio setup?

[@fondupot]

Zachary Palmer GM removed HD radio capability on the 2015 truck models.

[@richardsternard4030]

It would be helpful to know how to add favorites. How to program them. It isn’t intuitive, the manual isn’t clear, and it is completely ignored in this video. Anyone know hot to program the favorites in?

[@fondupot]

Tune to a channel you want to save. Long press on the preset icons. Easy peasy.

[@BuccaneerBruce]

Great video, but for some reason the Chevy My Link doesn't have settings only "configuration".

[@fondupot]

Thanks for the heads up. Does it take you to a similar menu as the "settings" that you see in my video?

[@BuccaneerBruce]

No it doesn't. There isn't a place to clear out the pre-sets.

[@fondupot]

Dang. Thats strange. They are literally the same system.

[@BuccaneerBruce]

Yeah, I have no idea why that is. But the screens look nothing like each other.

[@roinuj111]

Thank youuuu!

[@fondupot]

Glad to help!

[@roinuj111]

Do possibly know have to activate the safety alert drivers seat vibration? It's when the seat vibrates if you cross over the lines on the road.

[@fondupot]

Negative. My truck does not have this feature.

[@roinuj111]

Ok thanks anyway

[@fondupot]

Whats you're question, maybe I can help anyways.

[@roinuj111]

I actually figured it out the safety alert drivers seat is an extra package option that i didn't get. so my car cant do it anyway. oops. Thanks though!

[@fondupot]

Alright! haha at least now you know! Enjoy your truck.

[@nathanaelbordash]

I Set mine to 60 favorites but it will only let me set 32 XM Channels. Does anyone know why?

[@fondupot]

I gotta ask...do you need 60 favorites? Cripes!

[@kenduym844]

How do you add phone numbers to favorites? I looked and looked?

[@fondupot]

Ken Duym find the contact in the radio. Then slide the favorites bar up from the bottom. Then find a blank favorites spot. Long press on the favorite spot.

[@kenduym844]

@@fondupot Thank you very much!!

[@MrScottyMillz]

My favorites bar won’t minimize, its stuck on just the single line at the bottom, it happened a few months ago then I miraculously got them to disappear but I have tried everything and now it’s at the point where it is so annoying that I am thinking about selling my entire car, I can’t effing stand it

[@fondupot]

While you are on the radio screen, you have to slide your finger up from the bottom of the screen. That should get the favorites bar back up. Its finicky though, might take a couple swipes.

[@MrScottyMillz]

Fondupot's Garage No, what I am saying is the favorites bar will not disappear. I hate seeing it there. I dont use it and its pointless for my liking, also takes up too much space. I can move it up no problem and move it back down no problem, But it just wont entirely disappear like how it does on all other screens. It goes up and down to the single bar, 1-5. But it wont go down and disappear all together. I have literally spent hours trying to flick it down out of sight.

[@fondupot]

You should be able to just swipe it down and it goes away. That's how it always worked for me. The menu was designed to have at least 1 bar of the favorites showing. But can be hidden if you want. If swiping down is not working, then I don't know what to tell you. Trade it!

[@MrScottyMillz]

Fondupot's Garage yeah it works in every other menu, navigation, settings, etc. but just stuck on radio. Ill be driving it into a lake. Thanks for your input!

[@fondupot]

MrScottyMillz are you able to slide left and right on the menu?
