Yeah, I have kind of accepted the fact that it must not have come with running lights on the rear. In which case I agree with you zgotts and now I need to find where the left hand side is getting power when it shouldn't be. I will start trying to track that down tomorrow. In any case I still have friends who are avionics eletricians and one of them is going to give me a hand with it next week if I haven't figured it out by then. As far as the previous owner doing something to the wiring harness, so far everything is exactly according to the the wiring diagram. Maybe now that I am looking on the left hand side I will actually be able to find what is wrong with it. Thanks for the help everybody.
