That's the difference between coming on to a forum like this one and asking, "My blah-blah isn't working. What's wrong?"
and getting four different answers telling you four different parts to throw at it..

than asking,
"My blah-blee isn't working. I have a DVOM and a test light. Can I check it with those?"
and having someone walk you through diagnosing it.

yea but who the hell would think to check fuses. there is no fuse for the GPR!

There is a process for checking the electrics. It is tedious, but most of the time, the people here can help narrow it down a lot.

Unless you're Charles and you've been raped by a rat.

So what does the loose fuse you found power?

 

[02BigD]

OP stated it powered the low beams.

Every time and i mean every time something goes wrong with my truck. I check the fuses. About 75% of the time i blew a fuse. And raped by a rat is fn hilarious!!!LOL LOL

Unless of course you are Charles. Not sure if he has gotten his truck back together yet or not.

Why? Does he not check fuses?

actually, yeah there is..
it's fuse 24 under the hood.. also feeds the PCM relay (which is what I think it's labelled)

Charles has an electrical gremlin, that has basically forced him to remove the entire interior of his truck, and chase stuff for months now. His theory is a rat or rats got in there and have has some fun. Last I read, it still isn't working correctly, which may have changed since.

Hence my comment. Happy it got some laughs...

was this before or after he erased all his tunes?

 

[teambluemxer]

still dont work...

 

[Tom S]

One small terminal has 12v power and the PCM supplies the ground on the other to activate the relay.

Same thing kinda happened to me, my turn signals weren't working, to I replaced the flasher fuse with a cheap one, and they still didn't work, so after replacing all the fuses, about half the wiring for the turn signals and the turn signal switch they still didn't work, so I went to AZ and bought the best flasher fuse they had, like $10? vs the $4 one I put in, and my turn signals started working.

Talk about being pissed, and I had the part long enough I couldn't take it back, f*ck china.
