Whats goin on everybody? Im new to the website and 4x4 chevys but not GM products. I just picked up a 2001 Tahoe LT 4x4 and I already love it. Ive only had it a few days but Ive already had it tinted and I debadged the rear. There are a few quirks that Im trying to hammer out though...
My biggest is a head scratcher and maybe someone can help. None of the interior lights will come on. They all have good bulbs, Ive checked the fuses, and tried the dome light override button. The only thing Im thinking could be related to this issue is a viper car alarm installed. It has the LCD remote with lock, unlock and remote start. Also a button labeled "ECT". Now the display is smashed so I cant read it untill I get it replaced. Any insight? Does anyone have a viper installed on their ride? Does it control the interior lights in any way? Wow, sorry so long winded in my first post. Well even if no one can help, I really like the site so far. And last but not least, pics for clicks!

And the other cars in my stable, 1987 Buick Grand National - too many mods to list but runs 11s all day on street tires.:eek: and a 2006 VW GTI - GT3071R turbo, 12 sec fwd streetcar.:pp:

:welcome: Welcome to the forums! Sounds like you have tried just about everything I would have thought of as far as the lights are concerned. I don't know if the alarm would have anything to do with it or not unless they tried to wire it into it to have them activate with the unlock function. I'm sure someone on here will have a better idea as to where to look though.

Good people here, I can tell already! Thanks for the warm welcome. Yeah I did try the button near the lightswitch, no luck there. I havent pulled out the switch to check the wiring and all that. Maybe loose wiring. There are some other wierd seemingly interconnected lighting issues. I plan on really diving headfirst into it tomorrow though. Ill keep yall updated and take some photos of some things under the dash to see if my setup seems similar to yalls. In the meantime, I need some sleep! I work third shift in a pharmacy in a children's hospital and I just worked 94 hours in 8 days while also buying the hoe, getting it tinted, detailing it, and debadgeing it.:boxed: Mods and this site ARE like crack! Had to get my fixx man! LOL
