Welcome from Walterboro South Carolina Charlie!

Used to have family in Morehead Ky. Used to get Moonshine at Freight Train Liquors in downtown Morehead years ago. Also went to go Greens Restaurant in Salt Lick. A lot of nice people there.

What brand LED build did you use? Sometimes LED can be wonky. I’m sure you tried flip-swapping the bulbs with each other to make sure its not a bad bulb. Did you reinstall the old bulbs to see if the problem goes away? Check the fuses? If you hooked up the new bulbs without disconnecting the battery you could have blown a fuse By inadvertently shorting the circuit.

By the way, if you install LED brake light bulbs, your cruise control won’t work. Don’t ask me how I know this.

Welcome to the tribe.

Could be a bad bulb or reverse the polarity/flip the bulb around to see if that fixes it. Welcome from Nc as well!

From one '99 Tahoe owner to another, welcome to TYF from NY!
Father and son projects are one of the absolute best ways to spend time bonding IMO. Good for you guys! Just wrapped up a small lift on my son's '16 Silverado last night with him. That time spent with him is priceless. I thank God for that. Lot of folks aren't so fortunate.
Wish we had KY conditions up here in NY. We wouldn't have to store our Tahoe in the winter if so. The salty road winters are brutal on a rig.
