Ok so I posted on here the other day about this dilemna I'm having so my apologies for the repost but since then I have done numerous things that I'm hoping someone can follow my steps and see if theres something I overlooked. Here it goes.....
I noticed the other day I had no turn signals so I started checking all the fuses under the dash only to find that the 15a fuse for the turn signals was blown. So I replaced that....prob solved. Then i found a 20a tailight hazzard fuse also blown. I tried the hazzards and all they do is light up on the dash and stay solid.....no flash. So I turn off the lights after parking my truck, get out and notice in the neigbors window the tailights are still on
. I fiddle around underneath checking the other fuses and nothing caught my eye so I pulled the fuse for the hazzards and out the lights go.
Next day at work I grab a new stoplight switch, hazzard relay, new 1156/1157 bulbs, headlight switch. I start with replacing the bulbs, hazzard relay, disconnect the stoplight switch and check everything and same symptoms. I call a mechanic friend that knows these things and he seems to think it's the headlamp switch so I replace that. Now I've gone and replaced all the obvious, all the fuses are in and everything the way it should be and I still have the lights on. Once again I pulled the fuse to shut em off. Everything works, marker lights, running lights and headlights, turnsignals work in both front and rear l/r sides but I just don't have any hazzards or brake lights.....I'm about to pull the rest of my hair out!!!
What could I possible be missing? We've gone over everything and now I'm going to have to sit down and look over a wiring diagram I guess.
One thing I failed to mention though is my bumper bracket cracked so I removed the rear bumper and in the process had to disconnect the liscense plate lights from the harness. Could those being disconnected have anything to do with interrupting the brake lights?
