So driving home the other day my buddy told me both my running lights are not working so I went to auto zone and just grabbed some bulbs and replaced them and that didn't work and I notice that my passenger side blinker or break light did not work as well. The only thing that works on that tail light would be my reverse lights i went and checked fuses and there were all good so now I figuring it is a short. So I went searching for it and right away I saw that my license plate wires where like pulled off and dangling could this be the cause of the short? How can I fix it?

 

Do you have a trailer connector?

Get in there.....

 

There is a module I think on the firewall its for your daytime running lights its most likely burnt out

 

Yes I have a trailer plug

Is that module on the driver side

 

I think so its been awhile since I change it out

 

I couldn't find it its on an 01 six speed

 

I thought the DRL module was only in Canada - we don't know where this guy is.

 

Trailer connector.....

 

Not sure we are talking about daytime running lights. I got the impression we're talking about both tail lights, and the RH brake and turn signal. It doesn't sound like a short as there are no fuses blown. Probably just some corrosion in a damaged connector, or some broken bare wiring.

Anywhere somebody has spliced in wiring for a trailer connector is very suspect. Also, follow the wiring harness along the frame right from the firewall to the tail lights, give it a good visual inspection for previous repairs or gravel damage.

 

Yeah I found so wires that where broken at the plug next to the driver side

 

having the same problem its 1000 miles away. What about the trailer connector?
