I've got a 2015 Silverado regular cab. I installed Razir's led tailgate light bar last summer. I decided to keep it on this winter for snowplowing, since it adds quite a bit of extra lighting when I'm in reverse.

 

This week the white wire that connects from the light bar into the left taillight tore apart. And with that, my reverse lights stopped working.

I spliced the two wires back together and heat shrunk them. Still.. No reverse lights.

I checked the fuses under the hood, and replaced the trailer reverse lights. I also checked the fuse panel under my dash, but I cannot find which goes to the reverse lights.

 

So does anyone know which fuse under the dash are for the reverse lights? And also why I would still not have reverse lights? (Yes, I do have taillights)

Thanks

Hi, lm new to the forum, and wanted to share something that will help quite a few 2014 to 2019 gm truck owners. If you are having the dreaded no power to fuses 16 and 33, the most likely cause is a non serviceable relay  inside the under hood fuse block.

You will need to purchase a new fuse block to remedy this issue. 

They cost from $150.00 to $220.00. It took me 15 min to replace and everything work normally now.

Does anyone know what the part # is for this non serviceable relay that's inside the under hood fuse block?

You have to replace the entire under hood fuse block. The non serviceable relay is integrated into the fuse block. What year and make is your truck? It is probably going to be part # 84303175

It's fuse

16 under the hood. I'm having issues with no reverse lights too. No mods though. Fuse is good (10 amp), both bulbs good, and camera quit too. Voltage is good at fuse, but not at the bulbs.

    • I’ve had several. The last was sold at the dealership hard with a soft top. They all leaked a little. The only one that didn’t was a topper. My supplier miss understood. It was supposed to be a painted match topper. I was getting ready for a trip couldn’t wait so I took it. It was easy to remove if needed and didn’t leak.
    • Very nice truck. I’m a strange one. I never considered trucks family vehicles. Work or personal vehicles for men. Watching kids or ladies climb into trucks can be amusing. I tried for retirement but the wife didn’t take long with her displeasure. That led to our first SUV. Now a minivan. People really miss the boat on that one. Even a midsized truck was vetoed. My wife’s car is off limits. That’s ok by me. I could do a full sized car ok. But for an old guy you have to sit first then bring the legs in. Then spin towards the door put both legs out then stand up. Mini vans are just high enough to step in and sit. Step out and walk. I hear the Toyota Crown is kinda like that. I’ll try that sometime. Go ahead and laugh, you’ll be old someday. A regular cab truck. I’m kinda looking for an older GM V-8. The Ridgeline is OK. But we’re not exactly speaking the same language. It’s a looker. But I’m missing that GM feeling, an old GM.
    • For clarity: per the manufacturer the 6.6L takes 8 quarts of oil with a filter replacement. I always add that amount which puts near the top of the dipstick range. 
    • Looking to purchase a used Sierra and want to have a tonneau cover put on at the dealer if possible, to avoid the back-and-forth with shipping & delivery of a cover.  Does anyone have a tonneau cover they can recommend that is completely watertight?  I've had BakFlip MX4, Retrax, and it seemed like everything leaks water from light rain to a heavy downpour.   I've been asked by several clients to start a marketing business, I did marketing videos for them pro-bono over the past few years and they think I'd be great to do it professionally.  So the truck may have drones, laptops, cameras, and video production gear.  Everything is in Pelican cases, but I'm sure something will get wet such as paperwork or a backpack like I have experienced before.   The rest of the time this truck will be used for long trips towing a travel trailer, so I'd think a tonneau cover can also help if I'd like to equip the truck with bed rails to haul mountain bikes or a kayak.  I am even considering a topper if that would be best for the combined marketing/video/event production business & RVing use the truck will see.
    • Thank you.  I ended up passing on that truck, it was $29k with 99k miles and local to me (Illinois).  Played that game once before, passed a much better condition vehicle for one that was closer.  $10k in engine work and $6k in transmission work later, it never drove right, and by that point the age & mileage made it worth close to nothing.  I now remind myself, a plane ticket and an Uber is a lot cheaper than buying the local truck with issues and having buyer's remorse.   Now looking at this for $26k: https://southernwholesale.net/vdp/23915469/Used-2021-GMC-Sierra-1500-SLT-Crew-Cab-Short-Box-2WD-for-sale-in-Trussville-AL-35173 And AutoCheck looks good: https://autocheck.dealercarsearch.com/Default.aspx?VIN=EPWlh9Ow3ceghogyxJFSf4bAycMno2xr4%2fK1GUasMDw%3d&DealerId=25052   This one from Carmax is high ($32k), but some people swear by the Maxcare warranty: https://www.carmax.com/car-detail/27952269   And this one for $33k seems insanely high priced, but it got a new engine at 120k, and no mention of transmission work except for fluid changes: https://www.alejandrocars.com/inventory/2021-gmc-sierra-1500-127941   Just trying to not repeat my first used car purchase, being so underwater I had to sell it to a high school w/vocational shop class because nobody would buy a recently repaired lemon.
