ChrisGalipo Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 It used to work great but stopped suddenly. I thought it was the bulb, but it's ok! I replaced it with a working one and still not coming ON. I checked the fuses and they are all OK. What could it be?? What can I check? Thanks!

Maineah Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 They have a less then desirable grounding connection the only way to get to it is take the thing out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maineah Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Before I would do that I would check a few things first. Switch OK? You must have a volt meter if you checked your battery voltage check the voltage between the inner tip for the bulb and the bulb socket if there is nothing there see if you have power on both sides of the switch. If you still get nothing see if you can find a good ground, some thing attached to the truck near by and try for voltage again. If you own a test light that actually is a better test because it loads the circuit a little bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisGalipo Posted June 15, 2009 Author Share Posted June 15, 2009 It's repaired!! I had to remove the whole thing, there was a bad connexion in the ground wire. I cutted it and solder both wire together instead of the faulther squeeze connector. It works now! thanks for you help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but the old seal was all black and ugly... I've done a new silicone job, it looks nicer now and working! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
