Hellow everyone! I'm having difficulties with the rear tail light's on my 92. The right hand lights are all dimmer than the left hand tail light assembly. I have checked the bulbs and conections on both sides coming into the light housings. I assume the problem is down stream but don't know where to start. Has anyone experienced this problem?
Thanks, Diesel Dude.

Check your grounds.

Grounds are number one.
Number two is to chech that your tail lights dont "collect" any moisture inside them. I have had this happen several times on other than chevy trucks... Slowly the moisture dullens the lens/makes the electrical connections bad and the lights look less brighter.

With a digital voltmeter read the voltage on both sides of the bulbs while they are on. If you see any voltage on the ground side the ground has become a resistor and needs fixin.
