Brake pedal makes dad light up????
« on: February 24, 2018, 08:13:10 AM »
I have a 1985 k10 that previous owner put a bbc in. Truck has been 90% restored and now I'm having issues with the tail lights. They were working fine but all of a sudden they stopped working and now when I push the brake pedal the dash lights come on ??? Directional and running lights are dead as well.
Any thoughts? I'm thinking ground???

It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!

check the ground of the drivers side rear light. you have to take the housing off to see it but its there
