Cab marker lights

Hello All!

   This is my first post here. Hope I’m doing this right....??‍♂️

   I’m new to Diesel Land and have done a few things on my own so far by research.

   The one thing I’m having a hard time finding is how to remove the smoked cab lenses on my roof!

   Woke up this AM with water everywhere. Looking at the front and back of the middle light bar, there’s a gap. It could use some silocone I guess after I remove and clean the lens. I’d like to inspect further but can figure out how to remove the lens.

   Last thing I want to do is go gorilla with a flat head screwdriver!

   Any suggestions on how to remove..? Is it a tab or a pinch and lift? Also, any recommendations for a durable silocone for all weather applications on a roof?

  I don’t think The Lowe’s Depot have anything that is worth my while...

   thanks for any help!!

I believe you have to drop the headliner down a bit in the front. Should just be clips on front but may need to take driver and passenger handles off as well

    • Howdy folks,   Recently I pulled a heated steering wheel and clock spring out of a 2015 Sierra All Terrain (part numbers coming soon - will have to disassemble), and just installed it on my 2016 Sierra WT (as base model as it gets).   On install, I noticed that I’m missing the connector often tucked behind the dash for the heating element.     No problem… or so I thought.   I used an “Add-A-Fuse” at my heated steering wheel fuse location, which has voltage, but no wires. I ran it to the positive of the heated steering wheel (Violet/White), and took black to ground.   Hooked up the battery, turned the truck on - no heated steering wheel. No button backlights. Was pleased to see that my cruise control was working though.   Read a post suggesting reversing polarity, so I gave it a shot. Violet and White to ground, Black to power.    Aha! Heat! But I seemingly can’t turn it off AND still no backlights on any of the buttons.    Checked all fuses, everything is still in good order. I’m stumped.   Does anyone have any insight? If so, please share!
    • I'm about 1800 miles into my last oil change, and yesterday a message appeared saying oil life was at 77%. Not sure why it popped up but I think all of these electronics could be susceptible to solar flares or somesuch. I change my oil right at 3K each time, and that was the first time in 10870 miles that message came up. Strange thing is that it showed on the screen at all since I don't drive with that sort of info displayed on the DIC.

    • Checked the pads today and there's plenty of meat on them. If the message keeps coming up, I'll just answer YES that the pads were replaced and wait for the squeal.
    • Welcome to the Forum! Always post the code definitions along with the codes. there are over 18000 possible codes, no one remembers them all and most will skip over your post rather than look them up
