Brought to you by 1AAuto.com, your source for quality replacement parts and the best service on the internet. In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the license plate light, both the bulb and the light itself on the 2002 GMC Sierra, this is the same for pretty much any Sierra, Silverado, Tahoe, Yukon and Suburban of this generation.
To replace the license plate lights, if you're just looking to change your bulb, you reach back in here, you can feel the back of it and you twist the connector counterclockwise, now you can see here's the bulb right here. The bulb pulls out and pushes back into replace it. A lot of times you'll step on here or kind of miss the trailer when you're backing up and wipe out these lights.
You can either use a screwdriver or your hands. You push the light back and pull it out. You can see just a little clip on this end and it comes out. At 1A Auto, we sell the new ones. Ours comes in chrome, so maybe get a pair if you wanted to match. Push it in, then just give it a quick nudge with the heel of your hand. Just turn back up in there, get it to go in. Twist a little clockwise and you are all set.

Okay, friends, so, it's gonna be time to get started on this plate light assembly right here. If you were to look at it, you would see that it has this little tab. What we wanna do, is from the back side of this bumper, we would press on the tab, and that'll release this from the bumper itself. This one's obviously not in the best condition, so, we're gonna replace it. When I do these, usually I like to do them as a pair, so, they'll match. If you're not necessarily worried about it, you could, of course, paint it to match whatever color you need it to be.
With that said, I'm just gonna take my pocket screwdriver, I'm gonna come underneath the bumper, just like this. And then I'm gonna try to find that tab. I'll just push on that tab. Go ahead and grab onto the pigtail, give it a twist, counterclockwise, and remove it.I always like to remove the bulb. This should be a 194 bulb. Take a look inside. Make sure you can see that the filament is still in good condition, and the bulb is not discolored. I'll just reinsert it back on there. Double check the seal. Make sure your seal's in good condition. If it looks like it's torn or even missing, obviously, you're gonna want a seal.
Let's go ahead and take this, and, get it on there. Twist it clockwise to lock it in. Give it a nice tug. Make sure it doesn't come loose. At this point, you're gonna see you have a hookey-doo on this side. And, this is the side that we pushed in on to remove it. So, when we insert, we're gonna go at an angle, and we're gonna put this side inside, and up against there first, and then roll the other side in. Okay. Slide it in. It should click. Make sure it's nice and secure. That looks great. Let's just test it.
