they are just cheap made.

Push them around until each end is sitting between the prongs evenly on both sides. It worked for me.

I went out to the truck this morning and the dome lights work individually...For some reason, if the headlights are on, the domelights will not work individually, but when the headlights are off they can be ??

I have the same problem. I replaced all six of my interior dome lights with leds from oznium.com. They worked fine for about a week and then they would only work when they were all on at the same time. Also my vanity lights in the visors stopped working when i installed the leds and when i open the lid to the mirror on the visor my dash lights turn off. I have no clue whats going on. Is there a fuse for the vanity lights that could have blown? Any ideas?? Please help

I have the exact issues in my brothers 08 Tahoe, no manual buttons work, loss of backlighting, visor problem as well, did you ever find a solution to these issues? Do you have upgraded exterior lighting as well? (HIDs and/or DRLs)

this is the reason that im afraid to get into this step

id like to change to leds all over my truck but it seems an issue with many ppl

waiting experts suggestion

 

[chauncey0337]

Similar problem with the nbs models caused by the leds not drawing enough power. Supposedly, canbus smd leds might fix this issue because they have built in resistors to prevent this 'error code'.

Has anyone fixed this problem yet?

I have the same problem, no vanity lights, can't turn on dome lights by themselves.

Has anyone fixed this problem yet?

Nope, no real explaned or proven causes or fixes yet.

We have CANBUS LED's installed, so doesn't seem to be that....

 

[StevenRoss]

Thank you. I'm debating wether to install them or not.

I did the full conversion in my 08 Denali.
chauncey0337 is on the money. Buying the led bulbs with the built in resistors is the way to go. All the bulbs must have them.
For me, they work exactly the same as the OE bulbs, no problem.

There is a fuse underneath the dash, towards the engine firewall that controls all the back lighting on the instruments. If its loose or blown your back lighting will not work. I had the same problem with my 09 Yukon. Took it to the dealership. They found that was loose from the connector, but the mechanic replaced the fuse, because he didn't want to go back in if the fuse was intermittment. It took them a whole day to get to the fuse, it's buried deep under the dash. If your vehicle is under warranty, take to them. The fuse costs about $9 dollars, and days worth of labor.
At this time all my led's work great & no problems with the back lighting.

where did you get your bulbs from?

Part Amazon part VLEDs.

Similar problem…changed all my interior lights to LED light’s ( Dome, door, courtesy) I also changed the license plate light until I realized that I did not have two extra lights for the light that comes on at the passenger/drivers side foot…I took out the LED from the License plate and moved it to the passenger/drivers side foot. The light on the passenger side did not come on so I removed the light and found the wires were bent. Now none of the interior lights are coming on. I read online that the fuse for the interior lights are located in the fuse box under the hood and labled “INTPARK” well, there is nothing labeled “INTPARK” in that fuse box. I checked the fuse compartment on the drives side door, there is a fuse labeled “int Prk” but, I looked at that fuse and it looks fine. I changed it just to be sure. Does anyone know where the interior fuse is located in the fuse box under the hood? I hope that it’s just a fuse problem and nothing bigger.

Still no fix yet? A pic of the fuse box under the dash and the fuse might be helpful to us with this problem.

I found the problem which might or might not work for you, a blown fuse on the side fuse box" the one on the left inside your Tahoe mines an 11 " it's the interior lamp fuse #10 I replaced it with a 15 and now everything works. I'll give updates if something acts up

Also use your manual and the back cover of your fuse box for refrence. I hope this helps you guys with this problem.
