Check your wiring. Leds must be hooked up correctly to operate correctly. If that doesn't work, check fuses and relays.

Mine look like that too. I think it's just cheap materials. Have you tested the wires for juice yet? If not, get a DMM or a test light and see where you're losing juice.

LED's don't last in tahoe's due to the voltage spikes, try swapping out with 4114 bulbs so they can take the spikes

That explains so much, about other things. What do you know about these voltage spikes?
