I hit the brake lights and running light dim. Plus reverse light will light. No brake light. If I ground the bulb socket everything works fine. I traced back to a connector in the frame rail next to the spare tire, but got dark before I could trace further. Anyone know where the ground eventually hits the frame?

Think there is supposed to be a ground running from the wiring to the frame rail at the back?

I couldn't find anything. I'm thinking it's forward of the spare tire. I'll have time to play with it tomorrow and Friday.

I have added a wire from the frame rail to the engine block ground cable, where that cable bolts to the side of the block. Just to ensure reliability.

You can never have too many grounds.

I didn't find where it eventually made ground. I ran out of time and just spliced into it and grounded to frame. Everything works fine now.
