Replaced the rear brake light assemblies and cleaned up the rats nest wiring from a previous owner. Have the old wiring diagram. Not missing any wires and ran a new ground.

Wiring is one of the topics most discussed here, either the factory, the chassis builder, time or a PO has messed it up.

Did you get yours in good stead?

Topic was supposed to be cab lights. I think it may be the rocker switch on the dash.

That is a very likely guess! Mine was fried and jumpered around when I got the 86. Before I replaced my 24+ clearance and tail light bulbs with LED, I measured over 10 amps current. confusion After LEDs it is a little over 2 amps. New switch will last forever.

Click Use Steve VW's suggestion and lighten up the amp draw with LED lights. Mechanic Then change the rocker switch on the dash. Thumbs Down
