Need help w/ lights-71 C10
Have a 71 C10 that I let a guy work on wiring and lights. All worked okay until about 2 weeks ago. Now, when I press brake pedal, all of my side lights, my front park lights, and all of my dash lights come on. Anyone out there in Chevy land have any idea what may be my problem?

Re: Need help w/ lights-71 C10
When really odd things like that happen, it can mean a bad ground. It can cause some strange things to happen.
I'd run a ground wire to each of the tail light housings to start with and see if that fixes it.

I had a similar problem once. Turns out the rear harness had gotten on the exhaust and melted together. Just a thought.
