jbsavage_24,
If the bulbs are working when you press the buttons, the switch in the door may be bad. So they work, but not when you open the doors right? If so, you may have to have the dealer fix it for you.
You stated you didn't receive a manual, here's a link to a digital copy: http://www.extendedgmwarranty.com/ow...olet-Tahoe.pdf
Have a great day!

Here is the answer. I had the same problem. There is a bottom that says "dome light on/off". You are probably not going to notice it. It is NOT the long button that you push in and out. Instead it is a the button right above that which actually looks like part of the dashboard. Push it, and your problem will be solved. I had this same problem and didn't notice this button. Now my dome light comes on when I open the door.

That fixed it. Thanks

How about the right turn signal up front not working. I have changed the bulb and still nothing. The bulb lights up but doesn't blink and neither does the mirror light. Could it be a short? I think the issue with the dome lights is probably the door switch because the lights on the mirrors don't come on either. Is that something I can fix myself. If not what do you think it will cost to fix?
I know its an old post, but looking for a solution... 09 GMC Sierra, right front signal light, and dome lights are not coming on when door opens. Bulbs are good and I'm aware of the sneaky dome override switch and all fuses are good. Any suggestions?

I had the same issue and finally got it solved.
So I had the same problem. Some lights would go on manually but not by opening doors. Checked fuses, override button, door latches, tried a new whole light switch module, etc and nothing. Finally figured it must be a delay and it was. It’s the inadvertent power relay in the relay box down low under the co sole to left of steering wheel. It was fried. Now everything works!
