Question 2007 Tahoe Brake Light

On my 07 Tahoe, the brake lights do not work unless the ignition is in the on position. Is this normal? Thanks

And your reverse lights don't work unless the truck is running.

Default windows

and unlike the 2010 BMW X5 (according to their web site) your power windows don't work unless the key's in it...

which is so stupid.... just because the key isn't in the ingition doesn't mean I don't want my windows to work!

Wow with nothing working without the key, you would think the Tahoe would be easy to start since it has no power drains... ohhh wait no.. I'm on my 2nd battery in a 2009 and somedays the 'tap to start' doesn't work because it's so low on juice... I miss my optima Red top... but im too poor to buy a new one! lol
