I have had good luck with JDM Astar bulbs. Sometimes the plug sizing seems a bit oversized and it's difficult to fit, but once installed they seem to last well. I've had one bad out of the box which they quickly replaced, but the rest have lasted 2+ years. I'm using them in DRL and backup lights on my Sierra, and the DRL/Turn Signals on my 2000 Trans Am. Overall I've been satisfied and will buy them again. The ones I use are on Amazon: "JDM ASTAR 1200 Lumens Extremely Bright 144-EX Chipsets 3056 3156 3057 3157 LED Bulbs with Projector for Backup Reverse Lights, Xenon White"

@@1RoadGarage You sure that Suburban is supposed to get the 3157 bulbs? Those are CAN Bus bulbs I do believe. I don't think a 2003 is CAN Bus equipped which can do a lot of things to your vehicle. Sounds like you need the 4114 bulb. Same size and socket but the 4114 is not CAN Bus equipped. Swap them out and see if that doesn't fix the problem.

@Island Mike If it is not designed for it, that's how it could cause problems. The CAN Bus (Controller-Area-Network) is designed for more advanced computers on vehicles. Using non CAN bulbs can cause false "bulb out" indicators on the vehicle and cause circuitry issues. It's kind of like using a pocket knife as a screwdriver. Sure, it'll fit but don't be surprised if you stab yourself or break the tip. Or using a TRS cable instead of a guitar cable in your amp. Again, it'll fit just the same but you'll get a lot of feedback and noise because a that cable is not designed for a guitar. Below is an excerpt from a LED website. If this doesn't answer your question, maybe Google will be of better help. "CAN Bus LED bulbs should not be used in non-CAN Bus applications because in most cases they can cause other vehicle circuits to have problems. Electrical systems are much like the flowing water in a river. If a log or other obstacle is placed in its path, the water backs up, but then finds another route. A CAN Bus LED bulb presents more resistance than the stock bulb due to built-in resistors and may cause feedback into other circuits in the non-CAN Bus electrical system."

Hey Jimmy. I replaced everything to LED. It's great. Those old style bulbs do get hot. So I replaced everything with LED... turn signals, back up lights, everything amber and red. Had to replace the flasher though to one that can handle very low voltage. Nice upgrade though.

We have a 2004 Suburban and I run into this issue frequently as do the others in my area. I have noticed that most of them have standing water inside the reflector assembly and it is the water that is shorting out the bulb. Keep an eye on that. The easiest fix is to drill a small drain hole in the bottom of the assembly. Once I drilled the hole I never had to replace a bulb again.

On both of my 2000 silverados all the sockets in the bumper lights except for drl's are fully corroded and new bulbs won't even fix them. Oh well I haven't had front turn signals in over fifteen years.

I like the bulb that you used here when I was expecting to see more from it , especially for the License plate ones.

Finally someone who shows what I was actually trying to learn how to remove the daytime running light assembly I need to remove mine to hopefully be able to clean them up abit and make them more clear

Even though they will soon be replaced with all new headlight and tail light and daytime running light assemblies on my 01 silverado

One note - if you replace the socket because it's burnt, be sure to get the correct DRL socket rather than a regular parking/turn signal lamp. It's electrically the same, but is keyed differently so only the DRL socket will plug into the DRL hole in the housing.

Thank you for this video. It will help my son and I change the lights out on my 04 Tahoe.

It's very easy to replace the 4114 sockets. I ordered two off of Amazon and instead of cutting and splicing the wife's you can pull the inner of the socket out and pull the wires and connectors out and slide them into the new assembly.

Good vid jimmy, I need to do this on 2 vehicles. I have a "98 Chevy work truck and a '98 Chevy Suburban.

Gm updated the DRL bulbs to a 4114k, several years ago. They do last longer,but probably as long as a LED.

Jimmy- please- do this (and any future) get a big tube of Dielectric Grease (not plain silicone paste, there is a difference) and put a small dab in each socket, then install the bulb. Relamping the ENTIRE vehicle (even dash) will dramatically reduce wear & tear on battery, alternator, belt, and associated wiring.

Hey Jimmy would those 3157 work on my 99 suburban for parking/brake/reverse lights? or are they all different sizes?

i have the same "remove before flight" keychain! must be a 'burb owner thing. so how are the bulbs doing in the long term?

From what I heard and haven't actually checked out yeat on my suburban is these DTRL (day time running lights) are wired in series making them run with higher resistance making them look dimmer causing one of them to always burn out and the problem will be solved if they are wired in parallel.

Hi Jimmy you think those LED bulbs work n the blink\brake and or hazard? Thanks for your assistance n advance

I have one question I don’t have electricity in the socket what shut I do?

I'm glad I saved this to favorites on my PC

I can't get the parking light bulbs to turn on in my 04 Silverado, I tried reversing the polarity yet nothing works.

Did you ever try the 4114 LED bulbs? Did they work better?

One reason the 3157's keep blowing is they're the wrong bulb. It's supposed to take the 4114 which is physically interchangeable but a different rating than the 3157 (at least on my 2004 Sierra). That said, they bulbs put out a ton of heat that will degrade the socket and housing over time so swapping to LED's is definitely a good idea even if both are working with the correct bulbs.

Kool , Have same problem with DL

I got an 2004 suburban and I’m getting the blacked up head lights and tail lights and I was wondering if those led lights you bought in the video would work on mine ? Just lmk as soon as possible if you don’t mind

Do the brake, tail lite bulb, if you live somewhere you have to sit with foot on brake a lot it cook's that socket too. LED for the daytime running is the best idea, that high wattage bulb in that little lite running during the day was not the best idea. What I didn't like on led's for back-up was most are 6000k which is very blue and even tho it was brighter didn't seem to contrast objects as well as a regular bulb, which are in the 3000k range of light. I find the back-up and turn signals run so infrequently they don't cause socket issues. The Zevo's seem to work really well for brake-tail. Good differential in brightness between the tail lite and brake. Some are very close in brightness between tail and brake. And if your brake lites double as turn signal some cheap 3157 led's bleed voltage and backfeed tail lites when brake or turn signal is engaged.

The biggest problem is people using 3157 bulbs instead of the proper lower wattage cooler 4114 bulbs. Same socket, smaller wires, for the lower wattage daytime lights, leading to 3157 drawing too much power. One other piece you missed is that these bulbs/LEDs only work one way (polarity) and can burn out quickly if installed the wrong way. Bad design flaw of all these 3157 style bulbs.

Opinion: [for Mike] - LED will not "burn out quickly if installed the wrong way" because it will not "light" [or burn/heat] and if the LED does not light up it is of no use in the position it was placed by installer and it should be removed. If placed in "wrong polarity" nothing will be affected and the LED will not light up. Some LED units are polarity specific and some are not. Most LED units will be accompanied by information [written or other] which lists/indicates whether the unit is polarity specific.

Actually, it's not the 3157 bulb's fault. Those are designed for "dual purpose". They are used as parking lights (dim mode) and turn signal lights (bright mode). That's why they have two filaments. The bright mode is only supposed to be on intermittently when using the turn signal. All other times just the dimmer parking light. And even then, only at night. They were never intended to be used for "all the time on" driving. So yes, use the correct bulb, the 4114.

Do you have the link to these bulbs? And do they come in a more yellow color?

One thing to remember is to never touch your fingers or hands on the actual Led lights itself or it will burn out way faster from the greese. Ive purchased led bulbs from a different brand and they worked for YEARS. I put them in using gloves and a microbfiber towel.
