I have a set of lights mounted to my rear bumper wired into the backup lights and on a switch. yesterday while checking all the lights on my truck i flipped the switch i mounted right under the reardefrost and rear wiper switches. lights came on.
Now the wierd part when i flipped the switch the fan for the heater also came on.
I should mention these lights have been installed for years and i havent noticed this. not saying it wasnt happening though.
also the lights are wired from the battery through the firewall to the switch then under the carpet to the lights. there is a ground on the switch for the on/off indicator light. it is grounded to the screw that holds the fuse box under the dash on the drivers side. you can see the screw next the the ebreak handle.
i checked all wires all good connections and not worn through or frayed.
i know the problem is after the switch because the fan is only on when the light switch is on
