shawn Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 .... my gas gauge, brake lights, and tac would all stop working at the exact same time? - maybe washing it wasnt such a good ide after all. these things all stopped working once before and seemed to fix themselves while i was away.lol. i have heard mention of a ground behind a tail-light. the electrical in this truck (my blue one) has never been any good or consistent or easy to figure out and i still have that crappy fuse box. thanx, shawn.

DJM/78 Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Sounds like a loose ground somewhere , possibly in the cab ? Mine has a faulty ground behind the console that shorts out my door buzzer , console lights , pillar lights all at the same time ... :nuts: Someone should really come up with a painless wiring harness thats actually painless . :dunce: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dasbulliwagen Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 In my crappy fuse box, there is a fuse for the cluster that sometimes looses good contact, I just wiggle it a little and they start working again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJM/78 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Sorry guys I've been busy . My loose ground is behind the console bolted to the lip at the edge of the floor pan . It may be aftermarket because of the :dunce: that installed the sound system . Check any bolts with wires running to them . I had to pull the carpet to get to mine .
