I have in fact put a circuit breaker in as of the moment.. The problem still is if I sit at a stop sign/red light too long, my brake lights will eventually cut out, so I want to correct the problem.
1655, thanks, but I am in southeast lower MI, near Toledo Ohio, so it's a bit of a haul.
The compass trick sounds like a pretty slick one, and I may in fact try that after I isolate the "leg" in which has the problem.
The truck currently don't have a brake controller. I have one to install, just have not got to it yet.
When I bought the truck, within a couple months of driving, I found it had this problem (on a long trip with the 4-ways on, it started to eventually smoke).. with the rear lights disconnected, it did not trouble.
