i need help, please.
ok first off, im 19, im new to chevy, my truck is a 1999 silverado 1500 2wd with the vortec v6. single cab short bed, and i love it. just an fyi.
we (me and my dad) replaced my heater core in my truck. the day after we pulled the dash and put the ac/heater assembly back in my dad started puting some stuff back on while i was at church. heres what i think was the problem. i worked on the drivers side of the truck, and we worked on the pass. side. ok so when i was taking off connecters to pull it off, i remeber clearly there was a 8 pin connecter right behind the instrument cluster. well when i came home i found that i couldnt find the other end of that plug...he had already put the dash back in, so i couldnt really go dig for it. thats the only problem i had with the truck since we pulled the dash.
so heres what changed. the shift light doesnt work like it should. i dont have brake lights. and my drl's and headlights come on before i take the parking brake off.
if anyone could please help me that would be great.

ALIGHT DAD JEEZ LEAVE ME ALONE, haha, but yeah like my dad told me when i was young, if something was working before you took it apart and isnt working after you put it together then you know what your problem is........YOU DIDNT PUT SOMETHING TOGETHER RIGHT"

haha yea, we fixed..turns out i was right too. he didnt see it there when he put the dash back in, but we took the dash cover off and we were getting ready to pull the dash out and i happened to look in the hole where the headlight switch goes and see the end of the plug. ran some wire down there to fish it up, plugged it in, and ta da. brake lights work. LOL
