My 2007 KSDP has running lights. Today a nice truck driver who had passed me called on the CB to say that my running light on the Passenger side was out. At lunch to diagnose, I started the engine but none of the lights lit up. I had the DW watch while I put the transmission in "D" and held the brake. Still no lights. What actions cause the running lights to be activated

This is puzzling - Darrel

Your running lights should go on when you put on your parking light switch on dash board. You may have a relay in your fuse panel for chassis 12v electric's.
If your talking about your daytime dimmed headlights they work of a relay in same fuse area.

"ROUTE 66" is correct,I had my own problem with the passenger side DRL.
Had a bad inline connector about 2 feet before the light,one pin was pushed back.
All you need is start your engine,go in D and release the parking brake.

Well the problem seems to have cured itself. I am camped beside Route 66 in Tucumcari NM and the lights are working again. Thats good because the lights and wiring are hidden behind the pump for the HWH jacks.

Have a nice day - Darrel

Must be referring to the highway as I live in a townhouse in Delaware and there's no RV outside.
