Yeah, I have been through that before! It can be super tricky. What I have done in my W100 is to run a completely separate ground so it has a backup, I cleaned the ground areas and ran the backups and the lights all worked after that, except the brake lights, I think they're wired wrong somehow, but the diagram isn't very accurate. I know on my Ram, its wired just about the same, i just dont understand how the turn signals and brake lights can run on the sam circuit without getting the "Hazard light" effect, does that make sense? its very frustrating! i even looked at the wiring diagrams for my Ram, and i still don't get it. thank you for the advice about the grounds though, most of the time i've found that to be the problem but here its completely disconnected and screwed up....................
