Also, check the foot switch to make sure it's working properly. Should turn it off and on and if it doesn't it's defective. You can get a replacement at local auto parts places.

better there than the rear view mirror...

Is the red light coming off and on intermittently? Or just "on" ?
Sure can't think of anything other than hi-beam indic. If you can't control its comings and goings then I'm with 68gmsee, swap the foot switch.

Everytime that comes on you need to take your truck in for service or quit driving at night! lol

I'm glad someone cleared that up for me. I stopped driving my truck for a week because I take those red lights seriously.
