Re: 88 tail lights

I removed both rear lights, ground a bare spot on the metal brace and then put a circular connector on a black wire and spliced it into the ground wire on the plug. I did this for both sides and did blow a fuse when i accidentally shorted out tail light wire. also check the plug under your truck your the harness connects to the taillight harness. Sometimes people will put a T connector in there for trailer lights and this plug corrodes and causes problems. I have had no trouble with my lights now for over three years since I put the extra ground in. Make sure the bulbs are making good contact as well.
