Usually when people paint things up really nice, they lose the grounding. Pull the taillights and see how they are grounded. If the ground bolts to the sheetmetal inside the bed cavity, you may need to take the ground wire off and and scrape away some paint where it bolts on. Same with the frame. If the wire or another wire bolts from the harness to the frame, you need to scrape away the paint so it makes good contact to the metal.
