<<Sure enough, the problem was a pair of blown fuses in a fuse box I didn't know the truck had. Apparently a bunch of the fuses in that one are just for trailer stuff.>>

That is not where I thought the story was going, but it is of the same nature. So easy it is hard. I thought you were headed to "and I had forgotten to turn the switch on."

I was driving down a downtown Houston street one night about 20 years ago. A cop, who had been in front of me, drops behind me and flashes his headlights at me. I really do not know why so I slow and move over a lane. As he passes by me, I waive as though to say "I saw your headlights and am moving over." He drops behind me again and flashes his headlights again. Now I am really confused and am starting to get a little worried since I had had a little (a very little, fortunately) to drink a few hours before, but was sure that my breath still smelled. A glance around my dash shows that it is not lit up so I figure that has to be it. I pull the switch. Otherwise, I have no clue what he is doing except that he is paying far more attention to me than I prefer. He pulls around again and I again waive. When he starts to drop behind me the third time I am sure I am going to jail but have no clue why. He pulls me over and as I am entering the parking lot I notice that I have only pulled the headlight switch out part way, only turned on the parking lights, and have thus been headlightless the whole time.

Fortunately, he believes that I am not intoxicated and I get neither a ticket nor arrested. All for not pulling the switch all of the way.
