My '00 Yukon Running Light sockets are all cracked and burned up. One still comes on but not very often. Anyone ever replaced the entire socket ?

Yep, it’s common. Salt country or not, doesn’t matter- they tend to burn up from being on constantly and using incandescent bulbs. Switch to LED after you change the sockets, they’re cool. A little dielectric grease helps too. Don’t use regular grease lol.

Replaced both sockets with brand new ones still don't work must be in the wiring as the right use to come on but only once in a while for a short time. might replace the whole harness we will see. I'm only getting the DRL's to work so the headlights stay off during the day. Getting tired of pressing the over ride button all the time.
the drl running lights have nothing to do with the headlights, if your headlights are coming on in the day then you might have a bad sun sensor or it became disconnected or something.
And if the sunlight sensor is bad then the DRL’s won’t come on because the truck thinks it’s night all the time.
