So I was in a Yukon and noticed the rear seats were illuminated. I look under the seats and there were lights factory installed. On the front seats pointing back. I did this mod for the front foot wells but had now idea there were rear as well.

Exactly the same led as upfront only thing I am researching now is the connection. I looked at the upfitter for both Silverado and Yukon. Phil you there lol pin 46 is for the ambient lighting on the Yukon but unused obviously on the Silverado. I don’t have my truck right now to test if that pin is present in the seat to body plug.

Please post your findings with pictures if possible.

 

Saw the same thing when I was cleaning out the wife's 16 Tahoe LTZ, and thought it was another cool feature left off of the trucks.

If I recall, it is not present in the seat plug. I checked this some time a year ago and also bought a set to install. Lol. But never got around to it. If you end up doing it, post some pics ;). I’ll eventually get around to doing it.

For the front foot wells I bought 2 of these lights and the rat tails. I can find the thread on here how I did it. The mounts are on our trucks just like the Tahoe/Yukon. There not bright by any means but they give a soft glow which is all I want. I don’t want daylight on my feet anyway lol.

That’s the light mounted on the front seat of a Yukon facing back. Once i get my truck back!!! Sore subject I will start the install. Either I will tap into the front 2 footwell lights or I will test pin 46 in the seat plug and see if the circuit is present truck side.

Awesome, I'll have to do the same. I imagine it's a headlights on kind of thing?

 

I see you said about doing it for the front foot wells as well. Where would that one mount? (At work ATM or I'd go out and route around and figure it out lol)

 

 

EDIT - I changed some search words and seem to have found the mod for the front footwell

I did the fronts awhile ago if you look under the dash drivers side. Where the heat/ac duct go there is a slot that’s where the light mounts to. Passengers side middle below the glove box same slot. Now the front I had to make a harness and run it to the BCM I can’t remember yellow wire coming out of the BCM X2 plug possibly. . If you found the thread it says it there. I think yellow wire +and grey - again don’t quote me it’s been awhile lol. It works with the headlights parking and also when you open the door.

      07 yukon xl 6.2 stalls at hot idle and wont restart

      By xdieselmechanic · Posted

      I apologize for long post put going to try to explain everything. Parts replaced so far: Cam sensor Crank sensor Cam phaser valve Cam phaser solenoid Fuel pump Maf 1 injector Pcm Pdm   So about 2 weeks ago coming off the highway my 2007 yukon xl with the 6.2 stalled and would restart. Had unit towed back to house and I messed around with relays and unit started. Drove it the next day and same thing. Had it towed again. Scanned unit and had code p0300 with misfire data showing mainly cylinder 7 but I know that won't cause a no start. Measure fuel pressure and found only 42 psi replaced pump to have unit stall again and not restart. This time I stayed on back roads and just waited for it to restart about 30 to 60 min. During this time I found I have no injector pulse but have good power at injectors. Started unplugging 1 injector at a time and found when unplugging cylinder 7 pulse came back so i changed injecto and same issue. Turns out unit just happen to ready to start at that time. Scanned into unit and found no reason for the pcm to take away injector pulse so I replaced the pcm and same issue. I figured timing sesnor controlled the injector pulse so I replaced both sensors and while I had the water pump of i replaced the vvt components while i was in there. Read multiple people have luck chaging the maf for this issue so I changed it. Unit still stalls to this day and loses injector pulse on the ground side when it does. Have noticed watching the live data the pcm is request injectors to fire via injector pwm value. I have redone the ground wires at the left bottom of the block knowing this was the ground location for the pcm but still no luck. I am a mechanic by trade but this is having me pull my hair out. If anyone has something to have me check I will gladly im not much of a parts thrower but im about to load the cannon

      auto mechanical driver's door unlock without pressing button? [2026 Silv. 1500 WT 4WD RC SB 2.7L]

      By newdude · Posted

      Actually.  Wait.   I just re-read your original post.  Are you talking from INSIDE the truck you have to hit unlock?  Or from the key fob?  I had assumed from the key fob.   IF you are talking the inside unlock button, I assume you are shifting to park and its not unlocking the doors?  If so, that is changed via the settings page in the radio.  Go to SETTINGS, then VEHICLE and then it should be under LOCKS or DOOR LOCKS or something like that.

      Just pull the inside door handle.  It has mechanical override to the lock.

      Got to have those sliding doors. One of my favorite things about a minivan. The Kia does a good job of making a minivan look like an SUV. I may do a Toyota next. I want the awd option.

      Mixed info from dealer and manual RE: 10 Speed 45K service

      By HajjitheDoberman · Posted

      I took my 24 Sierra Denali 4wd in at 37,000 miles. Had the mileage maintenance checks done, asked them to change out the two limited slip differentials, including the limited slip additive, and change out the transfer case fluid. They rotated my tires, verified my shocks weren’t leaking, and whatever minor checkouts that were on the list for 37,000 miles. About three hours later, they charged me $600 and sent me off. I was considering having the 10-speed transmission serviced, but between the posts on this forum and previous experiences with transmission failures after a fluid and filter change, I decided against the tranny fluid changeout when the service advisor told me it would take about 3 hours and cost about $500. After growing up working in three different full-service gas stations, I know to stay far away from flushing machines connected to any automatic transmission. I don’t meet the severe duty schedule, but I may follow the 45,000 mile tranny service, unless  i see more problems from doing so on the forums. I expect I will want to watch the entire procedure. The various utube videos do a decent job of showing how much time and attention should be taken for a correct fluid &filter replacement, so witnessing the procedure seems something I should do. Trust but Verify🥳 Otherwise, I’ll follow the owner’s manual recommendations, whatever they are.
