I've got an old Jeep truck that keeps blowing the fuse in the tail light/dash light circuit (blinkers and brake lights work fine). It is not worth it to me to spend a lot of time chasing down the cause so I thought I'd just hardwire the tail lights to the battery and use a toggle switch on the dash to turn them on and off.
Gave that a shot yesterday. Took the tail light assembly apart, but no matter which wire I connected the power to, they would not work. The best I got was a very dim glow. I could get the brake/blinker filament to work, but not the regular light.
Obviously I'm missing something. Can anybody help?
