Some Chevrolet Suburban 1500 owners report experiencing issues with rear lights overheating and melting the mounting plate due to electrical problems. These concerns can stem from the electrical load being too high, leading to excessive heat buildup that damages the mounting plate. To address these issues, some owners have found that installing relays can effectively manage the electrical load, reducing strain on the rear lights and preventing overheating. By controlling the electrical current more efficiently, relays help prevent the mounting plate from melting and enhance the overall safety of the vehicle by ensuring proper functioning of the rear lights. Taking these steps can help resolve the overheating issue and prevent further damage.
