2017 Tahoe LT -left turn signal upper 4 bulbs out?

[TahoeFL2017]

My left rear turn signal bulbs are not working, the 4 bulbs at the top of the turn signal - anyone know what this would be?

Didn't get damaged, I just find it odd that all 4 upper bulbs would go out at the same time, is this a potential fuse issue?

Is this a easy or hard fix?

Any and all replies appreciated!

fuse issue i would think would take out all rear or all on the circuit.

more than likely a connection issues in the rear of the light panel. i want to say that the boards in these years are known for failures.

Yeah there is a class action lawsuit floating around out there about the ****** LED tail lights on the 15-20 Tahoe and Yukon

Any suggestions on what to try for a fix?

Should I pull off the tailight assembly and check connections, or is this a dealership kinda repair, I don't want to waste my weekend if avoidable, lol, any replies appreciated!

Dealer quoted $400 with installation, should I do this?

Just your opinions.....

Dealer quoted $400> Is this for a new taillight installed. Dealers are always more expensive, should be a youtube on how to change, get the part# and shop Rockauto, Ebay, Amazon and Google search. Good luck.

Rock Auto is $386, so my options are junkyard or dealer, dealer is $300 plus $70 install - not a whole lot of motivation to do it myself , $370 reasons total to try to get a better deal, but doubt it's going to be much less , unless there's a junkyard with a totaled Tahoe, and no tail light damages.

There are post around about what to soilder to make the fix...should not be hard to do.

Anyone know if the 2017's came with non-LED tailight/turn signal bulbs?

Watched a Youtube video, but it was a guy swapping out bulbs for LED's, so wondering if 2017 , ordered in 2016, may have had regular bulbs?

Bottom half of rear turn signal is fine, top half (4 bulbs are out) so technically legal to drive it, but have an appointment at the dealer on Weds - trying to avoid it , but a chimp has better mechanical skills than me - soldering a circuit board is not in my skill set.

Changing a bulb, yes. lol

Any replies appreciated!

If you can pull the whole assembly then you could send it out to have it fixed. Probably going to be cheaper than the Dealer. Do a Google search on repairing rear tail light to determine the cost. Should be a youtube on how to pull it, if you are not sure or do not feel comfortable maybe one of your friends with a little bit of mechanical skills could help. Its not real hard to pull.
