Pull the taillites and park lites, check the bulbs for open, the sockets for oxidation\corrosion, clean as necessary, use ep chassis lube to weather-proof - also check the headlites and sockets for same - check the black ground wire that ties harness ground to the body for loose screw or connector

You'll find a black harness\body ground wire near each light position, attached to the fenders\bed with a body-screw, maybe even a spade-lug on the late trucks
