2014 sierra upgrade to Denali tail lights

[noel91]

So i decided to purchase the Denali tail lights to put on my truck and was wondering if someone has actually wired up the resistors themselves rather than buying a harness, kinda want to try it out and do it myself, trying to learn something new and save a few bucks, i know i have to sets of new resistors sitting in my garage but not sure if those will work out

You will need 50w 3ohm or 100w 3ohm for the taillights. The resistor goes between the turn lamp and ground wires. If you're swapping for the 16-18 taillights you will need to swap the plugs as well. Just cut the new one off and splice the old style plug on the new taillights. 

 

New lights:

Ye/L-GN - Stop/Turn lamp

Ye/BK - Not used (lamp outage signal)

L-GN/WH - Backup light

VT/GY -Parking Lamp

BK - Ground

 

Old lights:

Ye/BU - Stop/Turn lamp

GN/WH - Backup light

VT/GY - Parking Lamp

BK - Ground
