hi guys. got a problem that just came up with my sierra. havent driven it much so dunno what the go is.

problem is that when i used to turn on the lights it would operate normally and the dash lights would come on and the headlights would go on and stuff.

then the other night i go to drive home and problem started. cant remember if it happened straight away but further down the road i realised i had no dash lights. dash is black with the high beam light on the dash lit up but can still change between high and low beam but the light stays on. now its like that all the time when i turn the lights on. no dash lights and high beam indicator comes on. cant remember if its lit up fulll bright when in normal light mode then brighter when in real high beam or if its the same brightness the whole time.

pretty weird

Sounds like an earth connection problem...

Are you kidding me? this topic comes up every week, one of the headlight or tail light fuses blows and it all goes strange, the fuse tests ok with a light cause power feeds backwards up to it through a light filament

just tried 2 new fuses. blows them straight away

its the tail light fuse.
