Okay so I’m having a brain fart, I’m on a home daily run leaving at 3 am and I LOVE IT No traffic MOST the Full Grown Bears in Ohio are still snoozing
anyway got to the truck this morning and saw my driver side marker/turn signal illuminated! I was like da heck? Did I leave the lights on? NOPE as you can see in the pic all other lights are off
Thoughts? Also when I got in truck fired up fine and had no warning lights anywhere
Maybe I’m reading to much into it
After 8ish yrs driving I have never seen ‘22 kw![]()
This little light of mine, driver side marker/turn signal illuminated

Walk into the light my son.
hope not dumb twucker, Lumper Humper, D.Tibbitt and 3 others Thank this. -
Never saw that.
D.Tibbitt and firemedic2816 Thank this. -
Does it have a automatic light setting on the headlight switch?
If you have a battery disconnect switch flip it off for a few minutes.
I don’t really mess with anything paccar much, but it’s likely a module that didn’t shutdown properly.Flat Earth Trucker, D.Tibbitt and ducnut Thank this. -
Are wires even connected to what they are going to anymore? Fuse boxes don't count, relays don't count.
The answer is probably NO, because everything seemingly goes through a CPU at some point.
Every little thing is controlled by a computer.
Bits and bytes, zero's and one's.
One zero not turned to a one for some random reason... there is your stray light.
So yes, you are reading too much into this.firemedic2816 and ducnut Thank this. -
It’s a PACCAR and there is a computer module for everything. That light is controlled by the Body Control Module (BCM). You’re going to have more random stuff coming your way, until the BCM is replaced. Most likely, your shop will do nothing, because replacement is the only sure way to diagnose a failing module. If the truck starts and runs, no one else but you cares. And, PACCAR sucks!
