In reference to the present unit for 2022 plus vehicles, during coasting , is 0-cylinder deactivation achieved by the collapsing of random valve lifters or fuel cut-off ?
Referring to the upcoming updated unit, will the 2023 5.3 or 6.2 Engine behave exactly the same as it does in L9 (with the exception of over drive) with the 0-cylinder deactivation option selected?
No, the way the vehicle acts in L9 can not be replicated due to the encrypted messages being sent within GM's latest Global B technology.
May be a stupid question, but does the 0 cylinder coast mode still hydraulically deactivate the lifters? What was the unpleasant driver experience when you deactivated it in testing? Would love to know because people that drive in L9 don't seem to have complaints.
Disabling the 0-Cylinder mode also turns off the built in engine braking and can have a significant effect on fuel economy
I just installed this product today and so far, I'm happy with the product. I have a 2024 Silverado with a 5.3 and these results were evaluated by hooking up a "SCANNER" to the OBD port. Stock results (Range not installed) in drive or D Idle - All cylinders Acceleration - All cylinders Coasting - Cylinder deactivation Maintaining a constant speed - Cylinder deactivation Cruise control - Cylinder deactivation Stock results L9 or manual gear selection (Range not installed) - Just a side note when cruising in 10th gear and shifting from D to L it would drop to 7th gear Idle - All cylinders Acceleration - All cylinders Coasting - All cylinders Maintaining a constant speed - All cylinders Cruise control - All cylinders Range installed Idle - All cylinders Acceleration - All Cylinders Coasting - Cylinder deactivation - I expected this because it was mentioned on the web site. Maintaining a constant speed - All cylinders Cruise control - All cylinders - I was not sure if it would read all cylinders because there was not any physical input to the gas pedal, but it worked on my truck Like mentioned I just installed this product today and I'm happy with it so far. I'm glad it also activated all cylinders with cruise control turned on. I'm not looking to have a great sounding exhaust, and I understand the frustration of cylinders cutting out and creating a strange exhaust tone. I just thought this would be good info for you guys.
Dude I have a Silverado Z71 trail boss 2024, 5.3L, tell me more, I'm waiting for mine to arrive.
Still dropping cylinders with the in-line module 22 ZR2. Not happy.
The vehicle may still enter 0-cylinder mode while coasting (0% throttle). Disabling this feature created a negative effect on fuel economy and driving experience, but we'll release an update soon that will allow you to choose whether you turn that system off as well or not.
@@rangetechnology8178 What kind of “Negative Experience”? I have a 22 ZR2 as well and thinking of purchasing this product.
Still feels like it's dropping cylinders on my 22 ZR2. The whole point is to stop the motor from hurting itself....grrr
The vehicle will run on all 8 cylinders any time it detects throttle input. 0-cylinder mode can still engage while coasting/deceleration
THIS PRODUCT SAVED MY LIFE
GM needs to make V8 without DFM as an option
Does the 2020 GMC AT4 6.2 shut cylinders off?
Yes, our RA003 OBD module is a simple plug in module to disable that feature
Mine is throwing an engine light and temp is reading -40 Any help?
Are you in Canada with temps like that?? LOL I didn't get any errors, and disconnected the negative term. Did you do that first?
Officially ended my membership to the L9 club.
I've had this installed for a week in my 22 refresh GMC Sierra 6.2L AT4. Never realized the instant power I was missing until now. Awesome product, no codes, no issues. Dropped about 2mpg but well worth it in the long run. Great product, and great video!!
Are you checking mileage hand calculated or off the dash computer? Most of our users don't see any actual change in mileage when checking by hand
@@rangetechnology8178 I'm going by the average mile per gallon truck computer. Maybe I'll fill up and do the calcs.
@@rangetechnology8178 I could see a .5 drop maybe. Maybe.
I'll stick with the L9 trick for now. I want a version 2 of this with 0 cylinder coast disabled. Is there any sort of EPA rule preventing this? Remember agency rules are not laws.
@@wickedkool705 we have an update in development as we speak that will allow you to select which mode you run in. Our current version, or one that will disable the 0-cylinder mode as well. In our initial development, we determined not to release the 0-cyilnder deactivation as it created what we determined was a 'poor driver experience' and affected mileage substantially. But due to the demand from users, we'll offer both and you can choose!

Does this interfere with operation of the power running boards?
No, we've tested extensively with power running boards and have had no issues. Some Amp'd step kits will just need their main power fuse pulled, and reinstalled after the battery has been disconnected for our module installation.
@@rangetechnology8178 Mine is throwing an engine light and temp is reading -40
@@brandonsmith3219 was this right after installation? Did you unhook the battery before disconnecting the PCM? If not, the control module just needs to resync, which takes just a few drive cylces.
Are you guys going to make one for 2022 and Newer Silverado’s?
We do not currently have the ability to produce this product for the 2022.5 Refresh models. GM's latest technology system used message encryption that has not yet been cracked.
I have a 22 Chevy Silverado 1500 WT I ordered the first one and plugged it in under the dash in the OB port didn't work Send it back got my money back now I waited this long to get this updated version for my refresh Silverado Took the cover underneath the fender off plugged it into the bottom port just like the video shows got back in the truck took it around the block and guess what I'm still having cylinder shut down at a low idle and then when the truck finally comes to a stop it's almost like somebody pulls a plug out of my exhaust and it kicks back in and you can hear the exhaust come back to life I know this because I had dual exhaust put on my truck and when I drive around in L7 there is no interruption in my exhaust note but when I drive it in drive and I let off the accelerator the truck goes quiet even though I am still moving and until I either hit the accelerator again or come to a complete stop the truck silent but even at a dead stop again it's like somebody pulls a plug out of my exhaust and I can hear it again so that tells me this device is not keeping all eight cylinders on the whole time Very disappointed just got it yesterday put it on tonight and it sounds the same as it did before the install again if I put it in L7 it's a totally different truck and there is no interruption in the cylinders anybody else having this issue
Have you contacted our tech support team? This product should work flawlessly with all 2022.5+ Refresh models with the 5.3L and 6.2L engines.
@@rangetechnology8178 Does this product not say that during low rpm with foot off throttle and coasting, that DFM could still be engaged?? Are you saying this is 100% all 8 cylinders all the time?
@@BR549_o7 the engine going to 0-cylinder mode while coasting is a little bitt different than full DFM. We've done extensive testing and there is only one way to keep all 8-cylinders on while coasting, and that change caused a MASSIVE drop in fuel economy in our testing (2-3mpg), and you lose the built in engine braking, made for a not so pleasant driving experience, enough we chose to not incorporate that feature in the product. So until we discover another way to get around it, the engine may still go to 0-cylinders while coasting/decelerating.
@@rangetechnology8178 so, in the end, what is the difference from stock? In stock, the truck will never go to 0 cylinders when on the throttle, but will when coasting. Is the range guaranteed to be 8 cylinders "anytime" throttle is on? But it goes back to stock when off the throttle or braking.
@@BR549_o7 correct. The engine will run in V8 mode ALL THE TIME when throttle input is detected. There are instances where at 0% throttle input (coasting/decel) it may still enter 0-cylinder mode, but never while cruising or accelerating.
very cool! helped me with my install. thank you
Great location for a DCM, GM,,,,,
lol. I was thinking the same thing.
Any plans to make one that doesn't disable Auto Start Stop, and just disables the DFM? I'm only interested in prolonging engine life, could care less about emissions/power.
No, this will be the only disabler device we offer for this application
uh, auto start/stop does hurt the engine just as much as DFM. Best to get rid of both of them.
I just installed mine. It works great so. Thanks.
Anyone had issues after installing this device with loud noises coming from ECM after shutting off the truck? Or how about hard shift?
We've had no reports of transmission changes
Ordered mine today!
Installed today 24 Silverado 6.2. Everything seems to be working fine but engine light is on. Any advice? Going to redo the install steps!
Mine made a serious arc, when I connected neg. battery cable. I am letting it go unsalted for a week to see if battery drains. We will see what happens.
My engine light went off on its own. I had driven to town and back. Parked for the night and next morning it did not come on and everything is looking good. No problems.
Mine seemed to install fine, but when I put the neg. cable back on battery it arced bad. I thought it might be drawing down battery. So I waited a week to crank again. Battery was down 2-3 volts. Makes me uneasy.....
Do NOT keep the key FOB anywhere near you when disconnecting the battery. Suggest placing the FOB in a faraday box. Your vehicle senses the key FOB and will draw current with it near the vehicle.
On the old style I believe that it was recommended to unplug the device if the truck was not driven for several days to preserve the battery. Due to the installation difference in this version does it also suggest unplugging it too?
I doubt it. The older version had an LED light this one does not.
@@jaredtaylor7777 I dont know if the LED lights made a difference, because I heard if truck is off, the LED's are off also.
The OBD module required removal and driving prior to state inspection/emissions testing. Does this require the same?
No
What about the 2020 GMC AT4 Sierra?
For 2020 models, checkout our RA003 devices
Thanks 👍🏼

We do not have Ford support yet
Only works with 12th digit of the VIN 5 or higher? What kind of crap is this? I got an email that this product was available and called to place the order over the phone. No one told me that my VIN had to be a 5 or higher. No I have to go through the hassle of sending it back. This is the second time I got screwed by these guys. I bought a Pulsar LT in 2022 for my Sierra 2022 refresh. I called three times telling them I had the refresh and asked if it would work. No one seemed to even know there was a 2022 refresh. Isn't that their job? To know what vehicles are coming to market and whether or not their products are supported? I bought the Pulsar and didn't work with my vehicle. Lucky for them that nothing fried. Called again and told them it didn't work and someone finally told me it didn't work with the refresh. Now it happened again. How hard is it to make a product that works for everything. I now have a 2024 Sierra Dinali. This is supposed to support all of the refresh vehicles. Now I found out the 12th digit of my VIN needs to be 5 or higher. WTF. These people are idiots.
That VIN information is only required if you have a 2022 model year truck. If the 12th digit is a 5 or higher you have a Refresh and need our new RA007 device. If the 12th digit is a 4 or lower, it is not a Refresh and you need our older RA003 device. All 2023 and 2024 models will use the RA007
@@rangetechnology8178 Does this work with 2022 suburban in Canada ?
All these computers should be located in the engine bay in a high location. Or in cab. Not somewhere so low and close to the front of a vehicle when you're actually could be off-roading. A nice love tap probably shuts off the entire vehicle if it gets damaged in that area. GM engineering at its finest again. 😅
Great video. That's how you do an install video ! Take note all you youtube garage influencers who cut corners and don't show full details.
Do I need to removed device when o take my truck just for an oil change?
We would suggest removing the device anytime you visit the dealer to avoid any issues. But it may not be required.
Do need to remove before taking my truck in for oil changes?
Do I need to removed when I take truck just for oil changes?
If you go to the dealership, I wouldn't give them the opportunity to deny your warranty.
Why is this installation so much more time consuming and different than the previous gen? Should just be able to plug into the OBD port instead of pulling out fender liner etc...
He said you can't communicate with the ecm through the obd on global b platform. So the module plugs directly into the ecm.
Because it's different.
times change, do you still have a vacuum tube black and white TV??
what is amp steps???????
The aftermarket power running boards
I'm looking to buy a 2021 AT4 6.2L carbon pro. The original window sticker says it has Dynamic Fuel Management (like the newer years). It does not say anywhere *Active* Fuel Management. So, I am curious if I'd need this product or the one for the pre-refreshed trucks(which again, this is a 21). It's just confusing to me since this year should be AFM according to your video, but the window sticker says DFM. Any advice here would be spectacular.
For the 2021 model year truck, you need our AFM/DFM Disabler that plugs in to the OBD port, Part Number RA003
Works great on my GMC 2022 Sierra 1500 Denali Ultimate. Super easy install completed in 15 minutes with no issues. Noticed quicker power on demand with the cylinder deactivation not enabled.
Will this work in a GMC DENALI 6.2 2024

This video doesn't make any sense at all ?! You show us the difference in 4-3-8 cylinders but you don't explain anything else it's going on with the rest of those read out numbers
This video was created to just show you how often these trucks are changing cylinders while driving. The rest of the data is irrelevant
Been waiting on this new module! Just installed mine today on my 2023 Silverado 1500 6.2L. Glad to be rid of the DFM and Auto Shut-off! ...Thanks Range!
Yes! Just got mine on too! Glad I didn't buy Amp Steps
This product will still work in applications with Amp steps
Just to be clear here. This works for the 2023 gmc 1500 Denali running a 5.3L ? Also when we go into dealer services do we need to clear any DNA that this thing ever exist? Will this avoid warranty?
Yes, this is compatible with 2023 5.3L 10-speed. We suggest removing it for dealer services, it will not leave a trace in the system.
Even when you take truck for oil changes?
@@ap8721 I would say yes
Yes, dealerships plug their computer into the port and make sure everything is operating correctly, so even on oil changes !
I installed mine today and it's still dropping cylinders. I disconnected the negative terminal. Installed and made sure it was clicked in and reinstalled negative. What do I do now?
Some applications may still experience cylinder deactivation on deceleration when 0% throttle is detected at slow speeds.
@@rangetechnology8178 inwish that was in the fine print before I bought it.
@@rangetechnology8178 is there any current plans to upgrade these devices to prevent this?
@@21222eddie whenever I'm coasting.
Hmmm so when the gas pedal isnt used like for cruising, cylinder deactivation happens? @rangetechnology8178
Do you need to unhook the battery before installing
yes!
Will this work with the 2024 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali?
yes
Installed mine yesterday. Discontinued negative terminal. Installed module. Truck would not start untill I rolled down drivers window and rolled back up. Truck started everything ran fine. Remote start works. Question is how do I know that the start-stop is disabled? Light for start-stop is still lit. Also how do you know it is not going into deactivation mode?
We do not interact with the start stop switch on the dash at all, so it will still illuminate as factory. But the system will not work with our module installed, regardless of what position the switch on the dash is in.
Did you get any other error codes or instructions other than windows up/down?
There are no other issues. Truck runs fine. So far so good.
When you stop, does the engine shut off? Seems like a pretty easy thing to diagnose.
Yes!! Ordered!
You forgot to tell them that they will be replacing a transmission next.
@@usmc2044 why’s that???
It keeps your vehicle from going into four cylinder mode when it should. Causes heat in the transmission which is killer of trannys.
any personal reviews for this new product? any known issues?
