Guide overview

Before you begin

This guide will demonstrate replacing an LED dome light for a 2006-2014 GMC Yukon. The dome light turns on when you open the door or you can turn it on while driving or in park if you need an overhead light and it's dark. Although the repair is demonstrated on a GMC Yukon 2012, you can follow the same procedure for other cars in the first generation. Before beginning the repair, make sure your car is off and in park. If you have used the dome light recently, make sure it has cooled off before beginning the repair as it can heat up and there is a potential to burn your fingers when replacing the bulb. No special skills are needed.
