On stuff like that I usually start by pulling relays and or fuses first to find the problem or at least the circuit that is. Have you done that? Then try unpluging harnesses like trailer pigtail, hood harness, switches, etc. before chasing wires. Hope that helps, good luck!

Had one like that on a Pete one time. Turned out to be a relay on the frame behind the sleeper was mounted upside down and water was seeping into it. Flipped it over and the problem went away.

Thank you Gentlemen it was something as simple as a few broken wires burnt out bulb and a wire hooked up to the wrong switch thanks to the shop down the road on the wire being hooked up wrong
