    2008 Denali Driver's Tail Light

    Well, I had time today to tinker with it. I double check the light assembly and it is fine (works on other side). I tried to test for power and ground at the taillight connectors - but my meter is bad (not sure what I did the other day but DC testing is dead). I will order another one. There...

    2008 Denali Driver's Tail Light

    OK, I was out of town - so no progress. I brought a new light switch but it didn't help so I returned it. Summary: I switched the assembly and assembly is good. So must be wiring. Winter is coming so I haven't felt like checking the wiring. And I am not so sure where the most likely failure...

    What year would you avoid in a Tahoe or Yukon?

    I am in MN and will buy my next pre-2015 Tahoe / Yukon / Esc in California. There seems to be a lot of lower mileage ones available and prices are lower as gas prices are so high there. Just be sure to triple check the mileage for roll backs.

    Check the grounds. Then check the grounds. And once done, check the grounds.

    Driver side Tail Lights

    I have the same problem but it didn't blow my fuse (would be easier if it did!). Hmmmm. Some people say look for a broken ground. But in your case I think a ground wire is not the issue as you are blowing a fuse. You need to look for the wire carrying power that is grounding out (touching some...

    2008 Denali Driver's Tail Light

    I see. My old Escalades had very similar LEDs but I looked at a photo of them and the brake light is a bit different. I just assumed they were standard as everything else on a Denali seems to be the same as my old Escalades. I guess these are after markets. Either way, it is not the assembly...

    2008 Denali Driver's Tail Light

    As posted above, I tested by switching assemblies.

    2008 Denali Driver's Tail Light

    I just tested the relays and made sure the fuse had power. All good. So next I will check the light switch itself.

    2008 Denali Driver's Tail Light

    So I switched tail light assemblies and the assembly worked fine on the passenger side. So it is something with the relays, fuses, switches or wiring. Any ideas? I checked the fuses and they are good. I don't see relays for the tail lights listed anywhere. My neighbor mechanic suggested...

    2008 Denali Driver's Tail Light

    This is a Denali so it has the Cadillac LED bank. The LEDs light up for other functions - just not for light switch.

    2008 Denali Driver's Tail Light

    2008 Yukon Denali. Driver's side tail light works for turn signal, hazard, open door with remote, etc. But when I have the lights switched on (set at auto, running or just on) it does not illuminate. I pulled (and switched for good measure) the tail light fuses to no avail. (25, 26 and 27)...

    Dealer rip off or legitimate cost?

    it was 2 things causing this ---> This is rarely the case. What are the chances TWO related parts went out at the same time? This is clueless, lazy diagnosis. "service driver assist". ---> This comes up for 100X different reasons. Without proper dianosis, you will be paying for a parts cannon...

    Steering Stiff After Repair

    Hmmm. This is beyond my pay grade. Could be.
