Description
This is a factory new* 8″ Replacement Screen with Radio Controls for your 2014-2018 Sierra / Silverado. These units are plug and play, ready to install in your vehicle and are available in both factory control backlight colors (Red or Blue / Green).
When the original units fail they are best known to cause “Ghost” or “Phantom” inputs/touches/scrolling. This includes the cluster display randomly switching to the media/audio menu as there is a gesture on this screen that triggers that.
Backlight Coloring would be Red for 2014-2016 GMC Sierra and Blue / Green for 2017+ Sierra as well as ALL Silverado.
PLEASE NOTE THE REAR SEAT ENTERTAINMENT (RSE) UNITS WILL NOT WORK IN A VEHICLE WITHOUT RSE!! PLEASE VERIFY YOU HAVE RPO U42 ON YOUR RPO LABEL IN YOUR GLOVEBOX IF YOU INTEND ON PURCHASING ONE FOR RSE. RSE INCLUDES A REAR ROOF MOUNTED ENTERTAINMENT SCREEN AS WELL AS A FRONT DVD/BLURAY PLAYER. CONVERSELY A NORMAL SCREEN WILL NOT WORK IN AN RSE EQUIPPED VEHICLE.
Please make sure you have your vehicle properly diagnosed by a dealer prior to purchase to make sure you are truly replacing the correct part as these are non returnable. These units do not participate in any security or Theft lock routines so if you are ordering this to fix a Theft Lock issue this is NOT what you need. We do open and test each one of these prior to shipping to confirm proper operation and function.
*Due to the age of these some of the part numbers may no longer be in production. Those orders will be filled with GM Factory refurbished units that carry the same GM warranty etc.

Stop looking around the internet and buy this!
I normally don’t write reviews, but I felt compelled in this case.
I have a 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 SLT and was experiencing the Intellilink system problems most people are describing here. I looked around the internet for months, read tons of review, watched videos, etc… Finally pulled the trigger on this. So glad I did!
Received the unit in less than a week. Installation was one of the easiest things I’ve ever done. Plug and play – didn’t have to reprogram anything. Would highly suggest buying a cheap nylon pry tool to pop off the bezel (got a kit on Amazon for $8). New unit works like brand new – for about half the cost a dealership would charge.
Hope this helps.

I was having a problem with my 2015 Silverado Infotainment Screen. It was ghosting. Would change the SiriusXM screen to the guide and then go into Seek mode, switching between channels on its own. It would also change the DIC on the dashboard and show the XM channel it was playing. In navigation mode, it would divert to other screens nearby your location and take you off your route. Crazy stuff. At first I thought maybe it was the HMI but after reading other reviews and Q&A’s, I was pretty sure it was the Infotainment Screen. Appears it was. The part arrived in a GM OEM box and packed extremely well in formed foam padding. It took every bit of 15 minutes to change this out after watching a couple of youtube videos. It’s been working flawlessly for a few weeks now. So glad I found WAMS! Many thanks!!

I purchased the 8″ screen to upgrade from the 4″. Glad I went with WAMS. Screen arrived quickly, fair price & was easy to install. I would definitely buy from them again.

Just got this replacement because my radio screen was glitching between stations and screens and became very distracting when driving down the road, not only did this fix the problem but it also help make the Apple Carplay/Android Auto work 100% better and smoother. Also makes the truck feel brand new again. This company is amazing and well worth the price of the unit! Highly recommend!

My part came about a week after placing the order. It was brand new and packaged securely. Unfortunately, I still had the same issue of the radio not working with no display or sound. Wish there was a way to recoup some of the money spent, but I understand their policy.

My Screen was giving me nightmares, jumping around on the stations and navigation like it was possessed. In 15 minutes I installed the new screen module and all my problems were solved.

After driving my 2015 Silverado LTZ for two years with a flaky touchscreen, I bought a supposedly working used unit online and quickly discovered the fallacy in trusting sellers who really have no clue what they’re selling. Got my money back and bought a new genuine replacement from WAMS and it worked perfectly; unlike the failed attempt with the used unit. Only took 20 minutes from start to finish to replace the defective original unit with this new unit. Simple and easy to do after watching a few YT videos. Fingers crossed the new units have a longer lifespan than the originals. Will definitely use WAMS should the need arise in the future.
