It was there when I bought the truck and while it isn't the prettiest of things it does at least do what is needed namely, let me see the rear driver's side wheel in relation to a foot high wall that I have to reverse parallel with into a narrowing gap with the busy A-road on the other side to see past the house for traffic just to leave the house. Kinda stuck with it.
Suburban mystery module in jack compartment?

A nice little low profile LED light bar would probably do the same...
I appreciate that it's functional, and it's not horrible, but it interrupts the flow of the vehicle for me.
I'll consider that - for the fog light also. Get a matching pair. I've just got delivered today a pair of stainless steel turn-downs to replace the rusted chrome trims that are currently on the pipes so the rear is going to be getting my attention. Not before the front wheel bearings though - which the weather today is thwarting my plan of replacing.

I have a 99 K1500 just checked. Lo and behold, I also have one. I have no idea what it could be for and never do said that before your post. Thanks. Since the truck seems happy, I will leave well enough alone.

Nice find! I was thinking "relay" until I saw the PCB inside... that's a lot of circuitry just to trigger a solenoid. Wonder what all is going on inside that module.

Possibly some kind of timer circuit, because if you just "pulse" a lock actuator, that's not enough juice to consistently operate it. Needs a little bit more juice.
BTW the early 2-door trucks have no relays in the power locks, just straight wired. Early Suburbans were the first to get a relay for the power locks; it's a wide double-relay unit that sits under the dash just above the transmission hump.

Lojack maybe
