If the turn signals are used, a turn signal bulb out message will be displayed. Cause GM Engineering is attempting to determine the root cause of the above condition. Engineering has a need to gather information on vehicles PRIOR to repair that may exhibit this condition. As a result, this information will be used to "root cause" the customer's concern and develop/validate a field fix. If you encounter a vehicle with the above concern, document the following information and contact one of the engineers listed below: Is there any aftermarket electrical equipment installed on the vehicle? Ask the customer about any aftermarket electrical devices that may have been recently connected to the vehicle. Ask the customer about any high beam use or use of the headlamps in manual mode.

Summary
Changing to Camper Outside Rearview Mirrors Some customers may request to have camper style mirrors installed on their vehicle. The new electrical architecture for the Silverado and Sierra has made swapping mirrors a more involved procedure than with previous models. The recommendation has been divided into three upgrades, depending on which mirrors the truck was built with (RPO DE2, DL8 or DL3). Please follow the correct RPO group below, because not all camper mirrors can be installed on all trucks. After selecting the correct RPO mirror the truck was built with, this PI will aid in determining which camper mirrors can be installed.
