Re: roof lights

pulling the Cluster didn't help at all. All that did was tell me the brown wire goes down to the firewall cross-through block (not the fuse block i dont think) to go to the framerail and tie into the wires going to the lights.

where oh where is that damn black wire?

(oh- and since when did our trucks have mechanical oil pressure gauges?)

do yourself a favor, where it said black, scratch tat out and put silver.

I looked again, and there's only 1 wire coming out of where the end of the A post is- and it's black for less than a few inches and the rubber wire jacket changes to silver.

Re: roof lights

ok, lights work now! the connector inside the relay style plug on the switch on top had backed out somehow.
