You can check the bulbs or if you lay under the bed of the truck on the driver side you will see a panel that is straight up and down with about 4-6 connecters on it i dont remember how many there are but anyways take off the connectors one by one and look at the piece you pulled off and if its got black or brown parts around the metal slits it is burnt and youll have to get a new one but check all of them.

I have running lights I have blinkers I have headlights but I have no bike locks that come on no press on the break

Same problem. Just changed the bulbs even though it would be unlikely they both burnt out at the same time. Still no brake lights. Will check the fuse when I get home. Did you get yours resolved?

My left brake light/ turn signal not working

Chevrolet Silverado 1500 2014 5.3 125000 miles
Left light and turn signal stopped working, but the reverse light and running lights are working- so all the bulbs are fine.
Checked all the fuses- in good condition. Checked the junction box under the bed, but connections seem ok...? What now?

You either have a break in the line or air in the brake line/system.

Electrical/won't start

Chevrolet Silverado 1500 2006 Extended cab 4x4  199256 miles
Sorry in advance for the length of this. This truck has set for a couple of years the mice have found it home. I've not yet found chewed wires anywhere but there has to be some. I put a used battery but a good one in it and tried to start it nothing happened at all. I started looking into the fuses. I found several missing one of my boys must have needed some I guess.

Trailer lights don't work

Chevrolet Silverado 1500 2019 Chevrotet Silverrado lt 13750 miles
The brakes on my rv trailer ran hot and I had the shoes and magnets replaced. Question is: was it the trucks fault or the brakes on the trailer? What iis blown on the truck that stopes the trailer hook up lights from working. Stop lights, turn signal, side lights don't work on trailer but they do on truck.
