Found it!! but now there's another problem. Did the thing you said with pulling tail light and dash wire from switch, then reconnecting one at a time. When I connected the tail light wire again, the breaker tripped. Took down the license light and saw the bare wire coming out of socket causing the short. Did a temporary insulation, reconnected all wires and turned on the switch. Even rubbed the dangling license bulb to bumper and it came on no problem but now my dash lights are dead. I know to turn the headlight stem back and forth, but they are all out. Wires on the switch are all back in the right places. I did replace all my dash bulbs with brighter halogen bulbs years ago. Does that have something to do with it? Did they fry for some reason? My PNHLR light is still working.
