new batch of problems
 
it happened this morning out of the blue. my blinkers stopped working and the abs and parking brake lights came on. i looked at the fuse for the turn signals and it was blown so i replaced it. the right blinker works fine but when i did the left blinker, it blew the fuse. any ideas? im lost so any thing will help :argh:

I would take a look at the wiring for your left blinkers, front and rear. See if maybe you have a wire that's grounding out somewhere.

i had that in mind but i cant figure out why the two lights came on as well

Just figured out the brake lights don't come on when i Hit the brake but they do when I hit the trailer brake button.

i had a problem like this.... but it was my park lights and brake light.. my issue was the wiring harness was rubbing on the frame and wore the wires bare and caused them to ground out. my issue was up under the driver side front wheel well. you dont have to pull the liner just get down and look up by the frame horn. you will see the harness . it is supposed to be anchored to the frame but the plastic think broke and it just rubbed the frame till it shorted.. hope this helps... if u need pics to locate the harness let me no. hope this helps:c:

I had my park lights and head lights get a mind of their own but i found that the headlight switch was getting hot and burning up. I put a new one on it and it did the same thing so i just wired in two toggle switches.:humm:

well i figured out i was popping fuses so i replaced them all and did an experiment. the hazard lights fuse pops first out of the few fuses that blew. but it only takes a few seconds for it to blow weather the truck is on or off. would the problem would lie somewhere in between the fuse box and the blinker switch?

More than likely.

check headlamp switch if its nvr been done they can cause electrical fires, i had mine literraly melt to dash and some wires, dodge or som1 came out with an updated headlamp switch and pigtail, i have had mine in with lots of leds and lights drawing on it with no issues so far...

it was corrosion in the tailight socket. i put a new headlight switch in my truck and now my inside dome lights dont turn on with the switch
