Epilog: As it turns out there was a dead short in the right turn/brake light wire in my headache rack which is wired into the tow package bundle. With that repaired everything returned to normal, everything working as it should. I guess the tipm didn't trip as I did not have to have it reset. Go figure.
Thanks for all the help.
Maybe you should go and play the lottery Gene..... as lucky as you are! :-laf Chris
