LED Taillights for NBS Yukon XL

[W8TVI]

If you can't tell, from the video, the top three rows of LEDs are the turn signals,
and the bottom 4 rows of LEDs are the brake lights. All seven rows light up dim
as in the picture below as the running lights. The running lights configuration
was the reason I wanted this set.

I've hit a snag!

My cruse control doesn't work now... I thought that the 2000-2002 didn't have these problems with LED tail lights?

When I first installed the LED tails, something blew the cruse/brake light fuse and the brake lights didn't light up.
I replaced the fuse, and the brake lights now work. Only problem is the lack of cruise control.

EDIT: The LED tails DID come with resistors, and they are connected.

Put your old tails back in and see if it works ?

I think I found my new taillights. Tell me what you all think input would be greatly appreciated

My taillight come with resistors in them and my cruise didn't work but as soon as put a resistor in line in the harness itself what do you know cruise works again

Did you put the resistors on the brake light wires or the turn signal wires?

I read on here where someone reported that the cruise control only worked with the headlights turned off. I tried using the cruse control with the headlights turned off, and I still don't have cruse control.

I'll have to try that once the weather get better. Not really going to need cruse at the moment with all this snow on the ground.

Here is a picture of the tail lights in the daylight:


We just upgraded my dad's '98 Sierra to LED tails and 3rd brake light:

It looks like the ones for his Sierra have a narrower viewing angle than the ones for my Yukon XL.
We hit one snag with the 3rd brake light though. The cargo lights won't light up.
They will power up with my 12v bench supply, and the OEM lights work connected to the truck.
I even cleaned the contacts. The brake lights work just fine.
