did you check the fuse? Looking at your diagram for rear park lamps, rr and lr fuses. Not only check the fuse, check fuse for voltage, brakes applied. Use a test light.

I CHECK ALL FUSES, IN DASH AND UNDER HOOD. TEST LIGHT SHOWS POWER TO WIRE HARNESS AT ALL TIMES.. EVEN WITH LIGHTS OFF THERE IS POWER TO THE HARNES.. BRAKE LIGHTS UP BUT THE TAILLIGHT WILL NOT..

    The low oil pressure light has been coming on lately once I crank my truck, along with some tapping noise. When I start driving the tapping goes off and light goes off. What could this be?
