Common light issues?

[blazinzuk]

I know I got to have a bad ground somewhere.

But just wanted to share.

In the last 3 days I no longer have brake lights ( switch is good). I no longer have tail lights. But I have turn signals, unless the lights are on bright, then I only have right turn signal. Lost the dash lights and the headlight has decided to blink with the blinker and I no longer have hazards.

But my domelight started working again

Ugh

I have seen the turn signal switches cause some weird issues.

Hacked or corroded trailer wiring often causes these kinds of issues--poor grounds too..dash lights should be on a separate fuse,so grounds would be my guess..

Grounds, grounds, grounds, always the grounds.

Grounds, grounds, grounds, always the grounds.

Have you thought about your grounds, @blazinzuk?

 

[blazinzuk]

You know I just thought of something.

I think I'm gonna check me some grounds

Best of you check the grounds first.

 

[1975Jimmy]

I don't think it's been mentioned yet, but for what it's worth, you might want to check those grounds!

He'll have to hire a groundskeeper to keep up with all those bad grounds....

Hahaha. Nicely put.

 

[ChrisPerry]

Found some loose grounds for you!

 

[blazinzuk]

Thus thread brings the funn

 

[rampage]

Might want to have some coffee before you check your grounds. Oh, and stay grounded.

 

[Smokinthehippies]

You guys have run this thread straight into the ground.

Lets bring this topic back up from out of the ground.

You best be groundkeeping by the instrument cluster and behind both tail lights.

So you're saying he doesn't have to start from the ground up?

 

[6872xtc]

So does it need a ground up rebuild?

 

[blazinzuk]

All I know is I'm looking for grounds. If those are up or down I don't know.

I think if they are sideways I might have issues

 

[diesel4me]

He'll have to start on the ground floor--and work his way up..

Just remember to keep your head and stay grounded. These things can drive you crazy.
