Hi there.
so I have an american 2500 Diesel HD pickup truck that had to have the Canadian changes made to it when it crossed the border, (daytime running lights, speedometer etc..)
I'm having a problem with a relay I figure, but would like to run this by anyone to confirm, or suggest otherwise.
when I start the truck and release the park brake the lights are supposed to come on (DTRL), but quite often the drivers side stays off.. IF I turn the headlights on and flash the high beams, then turn the headlights off, the light on the drivers side then comes on and stays on.
eventually this procedure doesnt work anymore and the socket for the headlight ends up fried at the ground terminal. I've replaced the terminal twice now and run a separate ground with the harness ground to the socket.
The light was working for a day or two (on this last "fix") and then off completely with no "procedures" to fix it. so. I'm open to suggestions on repairing this.
What I'm going to do is disconnect or reprogram the DTRL to stay off and check the harness for shorts. with the scorching of the terminal in the socket, I would have thought bad connection at the headlight.. but it seems fine and with no corrosion.

Thanks for any and all assistance.
I dont get a chance to check the site too often, so if you have any suggestions I'm willing to receive emails.
