Escalade Tail Light Swap

Mine does this too. It's normal

i don't think so it's feeding back power in the system this can't be good for the wires needs a diode to solve it this will prevent unwanted energizing on the wires it created a multi path ground... at some point something was to use this path it could cause damage to the wires or popped fuse , popped BCM..

At this time may be worth just picking up a set off eBay or from another user here since they make 3rd party tails now.

i see the 3rd party leds on the road, they suck badly there is very little difference in brightness from braking or running lights..

Well, mine's been doing it for over 7 years now and nothing has popped, blown up, caught fire or burnt out so I don't think any "damage" is being done.

BG1988 theory = false

it's your suv, just gotta wait tell something finds it as the path of lest resistance. didoes are cheap so why not? you can even salvage some out of a old broken electronics.
