Thnaks in advance for your help.
taillights..............
Anyhoo........What about running a tap wire off the trailer
plug or the bundled wires behind the rear bumper?
I will look for the bundle of wires to see if I can find that.
Thanks for the info.
If you have a meter you can check for power to the power window motor. Odds are that the motor is dead. Famous problem for the GM trucks. So much so that they stopped shipping the motor and controller together due to the high failure rate of the motor it was starting to cost too much money so now they sell just the motor without the controller.
Just subscribe to your truck's year and it will list all 120 TSBs out on your truck. Who knows you might find other items of interest....
motor movement from the motor to the base of the wiper arm. 1990 and 1994 have the same set up. The plates unbolt form the transfer arm BUT
gm will only sell the complete arm. A $5 part ends up costing $50 plus. So far no luck with the local jobbers.
That said, normal battery charging should not damage an electrical system. All you are doing is running a current to battery terminals, and cables, that normally produce such as current.
Batteries die because they don't like to be run all the way down. I'm sure there's a physio-chemical reason for that but I don't know what it is.
I would have the alternator/charging system checked just because a weak system could have caused the batteries to get run down. Otherwise don't worry about it - that's my advice.

I do not know about the lockable tailgate. Sorry.
Thanks
If the passengers door loses all power it is the module in the door, other than that it has been an excellent truck. All vehicles have the same computer module problems the more the EPA and all of the Gov wanting complete control they will only add more electrical items.
Any help would be much appreciated. does anyone have any lighting circuit diagrams or any advice on where I should start looking.
Thanks.
Do you have an alarm on the truck, or just the stock security system? If you have an alarm check the brain of the alarm to make sure all of the connections are tight and there isn't an open circuit.

It could be the alarm ... or it could also be an earthing problem too ... again ... check all the earth connections and tighten and grease too.
I had a kill-switch fitted to stop battery drain all together.
Another issue of retro fitting of radios and stackers and under chasis lights etc. Again, check all of these.
