Me to mate. It's a frustrating issue. I spoke to an electrician at work. he figures it's a short somewhere. I spoke to a rep at lordco who responded the same. It's really frustrating. I am by no means a mechanic so locating the issue without someone pointing to the right area is frustrating. clearly this isn't a unique issue to our vehicles. I'll continue to research. If I find anything, Ill post here.

We have the same problem. Even had the wiring harness replaced but that did not help. It is aggravating!
