Hey all, I did search but maybe I couldn’t hit the right keywords but I couldn’t find this issue here..
My 4.0 swapped '90 just started having a weird issue.
Pulling up to my house the road was rough from the shitty snow, and I hit a bump, the dash lights shut off, the turn signal arrows lit up, and the truck stared trying to stall.. the issue I'm finding seems to maybe be a grounding issue somehow.
Currently the truck runs fine with the lights off, the running lights on they dim and the taillights shut off entirely. When I was laying under the truck looking for exposed wiring or similar I noticed the fuel pump would shut off with the running lights, then it would lose rpm until it almost dies, then it would kick back on and run fine for 10-15 seconds and repeat.
The front lights don't get effected but the brake lights cause the same problem, and if you just tap them the truck with start to shut off until the fuel pump comes back on and it will run fine again until the tail lights come back on.. any ideas?
