Electrical question?

After sitting for about a week (of rain) I took my truck to the store and the lamp out light came on when I strarted it. Now the drivers head light works on High beam, the passangers works on low beam, all the parking kights work but the only directional that works is the passangers rear, and the drivers tail light is out. I have replaced all the bulbs and no change, I checked the bulb sockets and no power. I can't seam to find a head light fuse or rely and the fuses seam OK.......Any thoughts??????

Everything to do with the lights runs through the pcm. Sorry to say but it will probably need to be replaced. Might try a flash first though.

Never heard of an "reman" PCM, but you should be able to find a good one at a junkyard for a reasonable price.

Try unhooking the battery cables first and see if reseting helps.

By the way, what is rain?

Dropped the truck at the dealer tonight they said they have had some problems with the FCM (front control modual) they said they will "Check the codes in the truck and a few wires and let me know." I am hoping it's just the FCM $229.00 because the PCM is $1945.00 This is killing me I hate bringing my truck in to the dealer
