factory cab lights?

as many aftermarket OEM installs as I've seen come through here, yours are the first I've ever heard of leaking!

Yeah they were factory lights. The gaskets under each of the lights were dry-rotted and that was where the water was leaking. (also remember that Tropical Storm Lee is why we had ~12 inches of rain in 3 days which is not typical)

Sorry to bring back an old thread but I'm at a loss also.

So this has happened twice to me- truck sits in parking lot at work and we get a decent rain. Go out to truck to go home and battery completely dead. I mean no lights dead.

After I get it jumped from a buddy, let it run for a few and take off. I hear a buzzing sound which I found to be a relay (s) and the lights flicker on and off.

Well a new twist, this just happened yesterday to me. Get in this am and the truck is shifting really hard, both up shift and downshift.

The windshield has been repaired by a novice so that's getting replaced thursday, just hope there isn't much rust in there where it needs to go to a bodyshop.

I do have clearance lights, anyone know where to find gaskets for these? I will also be siliconing all door seals.

I do not see or feel in water in the cab. My wife did see some water coming from pass door seal the other day.


Anyone have ideas?
