The courtesy lights don't fade out. They stay on.. fronts on headliner and rear seat side ones on headliner while you are driving. They do turn of after 10 minutes when the GXP is shut off so it doesn't drain your battery. The courtesy lights fuse was ok.. Don't know what the hell it could be. Disconnected the battery for a few hours. That did nothing either. Oh yeah old GM quality. Anyone?? Or do I have to go to the stealership... Driving at night with all your interior lights on ... oh sooo friggin nice.

Thanks for any suggestions

NO one on the whole internet has had this problem with any vehicle. One guy I read had something similar. Says its expensive fix, wiring in the driver door harness...... F'ing great

Dumb question but are these the same lights that come on with the interior switch? Any chance the interior switch is on or possibly bad keeping them on or are these lights separate from interior lights?

Seems like something in the door came loose...like the wires that tell the bcm the door is closed.I'll do some research hopefully something simple

Does the dic show any of the doors open? the headlight switch controls the delay of the lights but there should be a gray-black off the bcm i wanna say the white plug under driver dash left of the colum test that wire its the power to the lights from the bcm here is a tech sheet from DEI

Hey the BCM is the Body Control Module right? Where is the bcm location? So look for a white connector under left of dash and a black and white wire going into it??

I heard the front push button lamps near the rear view mirror are led and are on a circuit board but dont look LED.. so you cant replace them or whats the case?? Where can I get pure white Leds for foot wells , vanity mirror, courtesy lamps rear.. I guess like I said the fronts you cant do right? Oh and do we have a glove box light..If we do, mines burnt out. Oh and trunk light and license plate. That's enough. Not interested in exterior. Annoying I think. Just want the interior basic bulbs. Did it on my Z06.. huge difference. Made it feel newer.

Thanks man,

Which ones do i order. There are ones that come from HongKong? The first vendor is USA. Are they all the same? How many you get? I'm confused which ones to order. These ones will fit all socket accepters in our GXP's??

These ones from HongKong:

pretty easy install, Just take your time, have a jewlers flat head screwdriver. just make sure you before you pop all the lenses back on that you test the interior lamps with the key in the ignition and fully on, I guess the only downfall to the cheapo leds is that they dont dim out like regular bulbs do so they will appear very soft. Nothing to worry about though. heres an updated link, although im sure you can find other bulbs if you want of a diffrent design, i used 194 bulb type
