[QUOTE="Mark K 2, post: 1036163, member: 55685"] I think I'm going to wait a few weeks for things to thaw, then rewire the whole mess. I removed the factory trailer lighting plug and installed one of those converter boxes that allows you to use four-wire trailer lights on vehicles with rear amber turn signals. That and all of the wiring is 18 years old and I can just imagine what it looks like after 18 Wisconsin Rust Belt winters. This Sport Trac has been a loyal friend since 2001, but it's starting to make bump sounds and the rockers are gone under the grey trim. I'm starting to think it won't see next winter. It has 223,000 miles on it. My mechanic has a standing offer to buy it from me; he knows it inside out and backwards and he says it's a solid truck with no mechanical issues. Tranny was rebuilt 25,000 miles ago and needed a visit to the transmission shop once since then due to a faulty valve body gasket, which was repaired for free. No codes, no timing chain noises.
