Actually now that I think about it, the time I had that problem some of my lights in the rear were working, I think I just had the plate light and none of the others. So try charging up your battery real good and see if that takes care of it.

Being that these trucks are 30 years old things start wearing out. The connectors to the lights stay on fairly good but the grounds don't. Example, the side marker lights with the ground going into the bedside, the wire usually breaks off or the nut holding the lug might even rust. 9 times out of 10 wether it is these trucks or a trailer connection or what ever, the cause of my problems is a ground. I have even had cases were the ground was completely gone and some lights worked but weirdly, the circut was getting completed with the ground finding another path through the wires going to the other lights.
