Moving on. A trick I've found handy for putting ground questions to rest. A long wire attached to battery negative can be touched to any suspected bad ground. Can quickly "illuminate" the issue! An old vacuum cord vice gripped to the battery post is what worked once for me. Also your jumper cables with not so much more smaller wire clamped on can reach the taillight socket. Sort of boneheaded, but hey, that's what your get from Flintstone! (you can use this anywhere on the rig, truck, suv, moped, snowmobile, hovercraft...)

It's the fact that it's all wrong that bothers me. Your knowledge of electricity is demonstrated in this thread.
