A Tahoe owner's manual's page 5-60 shows Daylight Running Lamps use bulb number 4114K. Overheating socket problems are caused by using 3157 bulbs instead of the specified, lower wattage, cooler, 4114 bulbs. It's the same socket with smaller wires, for the lower wattage Daylight Running Lamps, leading to 3157 drawing too much power. Bulb number 3157 is used elsewhere as the Rear Marker Lamp / Taillamp and Stop Lamp, Rear Turn Lamp, and Back-up Lamp. Thanks DIY Auto Homeschool for the excellent video.

Thank you soooooo much, you are incredible, the guy at o'riley was going to have me dismantle my whole grill, you should be a trade school instructor 🤝🏽💯

I used 4114 bulbs. Good video, thanks!

Best video on DRL replacement that I have seen. Most informative, and showing how you can get your hand behind the bulb to turn it. Great job!

Good video..... thanks for telling the model bulb also..... The other way of checking to see if the lights are working is to pull up to a window big enough to be able to see your reflection in it...

Very good video. Covered the replacement procedure in detail, without a lot of grandstanding talk. It is refreshing to see a video that gives clear and exacting steps in whatever is being showcased without the technician trying out for actor of the year! I have saved the video, subscribed to your channel, and will be returning. Again, THANKS.

Thanks for the video! I didn't realize the DRL's only came on when the car was in gear.

Thank you for showing this!

You just made my life a lot easier. Thank you! Just changed it out on my 2005 Tahoe

I usually just pull up to a convenients store. You can see your lights in the glass window panes of the store.

Dude thanks so very much for this information I was wondering why they would not turn on 😂

Aye man, luv da video. Broke it down simple, no fluff. I like when u said "my parents car, I know how they are" 😄😄 God bless you general. #respect.

Thank you!!! owe you a cold beer!!!!!

I check my lights by driving up to a store with large glass windows that reflect the front of my car. I also back up to the store to check the rear lights.

Excellent video. Thank you!

I had a problem with water collecting in the housings and blowing the bulbs. Got my cordless drill and drilled a couple of 1/8 holes in the bottom. Problem solved!

Nicely done thank you for your help...

I got a 2005 and due to the rubber gasket wearing away I dumped about a gallon of water from each light system or lens I checked the sockets horribly rusted and corroded I plan on replacing these sockets thanks for this modification I also plan on sealing the case back up with butyl

You can pull the bottom row really easy too. There is just a thumb clip then you can pull it out about 2 inches and it's easier to unseat.

Thanks man I've saved all your videos for chevy trucks do have one for the bumper

Great video👍

Pull up to a building with a glass front, and look at the reflection of the truck in the glass.

You are awesome my friend!! I did it!! Feel like I am a mechanic now!!! Ok that might be an exaggeration but feels good.

Very helpful, Thanks!

Thanks for your help.

Appreciate you brother

Thank you,Vary well done👍

Would checking other makes be the same process?

Awesome!

What type pf bulbs are the headlights and side marker lights?

Thank you!!

Do those lights come on in reverse? both do not turn me on

What if the sockets got submerged in water due to a crack that my headlight had? Should I replace them then?

Um, I have a very simple way to check lights front or rear. Just find a store with shiny windows on the front and view your vehicle front or rear in the reflection. They might be getting fewer and far between now, with the advent of the big box stores, etc. but you should be able to find one in your community. Frequently an Autozone has shiny windows on front of building that will do.

Is there any LEDs for that ??

Yo le cambié los focos y no trabaja, Usted sabe que puede ser el problema espero me ayude gracias

I bought a 01' Tahoe and just figured it didn't come with daytime running lights 😂 they've probably just been burnt out this whole time. I hate the fact that you have to have the car in gear in order for them to turn on

esas luces se encienden con reversa? las dos no me encienden

Why u didnt just take the day runin housing out??? One clip lol 2 tight to work in

Just remove lower assembly, push clip on outer end . U don't need to remove headlight.

Why don't you take the daytime running light assembly out forward after pushing the tab on the right?

I've replaced my drl with LEDs still it doesn't work. I've checked the fuse and still the new lights dont work.

Good video. Thank u.

The DRLa come on with the truck in gear and the parking brake on. Don’t get someone killed or have a run away vehicle trying to chock the tires and put the truck in drive. LOL.

How do you turn drl lights on ? Anybody

I will eventually drive behind a vehicle with a chrome rear end or a flat reflective painted surface that will reflect my grill & lights to show me if any bulbs need replacement.

Como le hago para prender esas luces ami silverado

NOW IS TIME TO REPLACE YOUR FORD HAT FOR A CHEVROLET.

3:48 gets past the unnecessary talking (AKA you *know* the bulb is bad and you want to change it)
