Hello all,

 

I've done a ton of research and found some issue but not the exact issue I'm having.

 

I have a 2019 Silverado 1500 RST. It has the led headlights. The PF low beam works but not the drl or turn signal, the DF turn signal and running light work but not the low beam.

 

All wires seam good from what I can tell. Ground is good. Switch is good. I swapped lights and same issue. 

 

The only light on the dash is a RF turn signal failure. I change the bulb out twice. Dielectric Grease on all.connections, just in case. 

 

Can't figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.

you plugged the right headlight into the left side plug and the right headlight did the same as the left was doing, then each headlight has is own control module and the command comes from the bcm. i would say your bcm has a problem, you could try and have it reprogrammed. did you try disconnecting the battery for an hour

I only see one control module, not one for each side. I have the front end torn apart right now. The only control module is the drivers side behind the headlight right above the wheel well. 

 

Same issue if i swap lights. Yes, I disconnected the battery for a while and no changes. Check for cut or loose wires. Nothing that I could find.

interesting, all the wiring schematics show a module inside of each headlight, i know gmc is this way. i have a 2020 silverado rst with led headlight, i will have a look this afternoon. even gm parts show a module for each light. can you take a pic of the module on your truck

      Well that book won't sell many copies. Taking ones right foot off the loud pedal never gets applause. Funny really, It isn't that people don't know what to do...they just don't want to do it. But they will complain about it. About bad craftsmanship, about the cost of fuel, about the cost of part and repairs and mainly they complain that the solution while still possible isn't one they are willing to do.    I observe this daily. 'Gas cost to much!", they wail, while they mat it passing at 80+ mpg and scoot down the road like gas cost a dime a gallon. Then complain about the few that will lift and save both fuel and iron like they are owed and own the road.    Good thing they haven't an ounce of influence on my equipment. The rest I just laugh at. Stupid is as stupid does, right Forest?

      Today I filled up with 4.899 gallons of fuel at a cost of $4.899 a gallon. $24 bucks. 290 miles. 59.2 mpg. After my 4% COSTCO discount just under eight cents a mile.

      14-18 Sierra 1500 Heated Steering Wheel Help

      By SwitchBladeSierra · Posted

      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!

      Brake Pad Warning Message

      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.
