no park lights, weird clicking
I hit a deer in april, had to replace all the headlights, bumper, grille, fenders, since then i havent had parking lights, when i bought the truck it had halo projector headlights, bought new bulbs for parking lights, checked the fuses and everything, worked before i hit the deer.
And for the clicking whenever i start/turn off the truck, theres a weird clicking sound coming from where the computer is, doesnt happen everytime but does happen about 95% of the time. Any ideas?

Hi 1993silverado,
Welcome to the Chevy Forums.
I get the clicking in my 04, too. DNK what it is,
but I figure either the gooberment is spying on
me, or itty-bitty little space aliens have inhabited my
dash :O
Seriously, sounds to me like an old hard-drive cycling
a little out of alignment. My low tech solve is just turn
up the radio. CDs are costing me a fortune.
As to collision damage, my guess would be you either
cut a ground, or severed a power wire to the light
controls. You are aware there are two fuse terminals,
right?

yes, checked both fuse terminals, the clicking doesn't bother me too badly, the parking lights didn't either until lately when i seen how bad my front end looks at night without all 4 being lit up, ill have to check out the wiring later today, thank you.

Oh i forgot to add that my turn signals go wild now since i hit the deer, but im fairly sure thats just because it had projectors before and no longer does and draws less power from the system making it think a bulb is fried, thanks for the help guys.

I checked over it, when i took out the projectors i didnt notice that the wiring was spliced into the stock wiring, theres a grounded wire, will be fixing it this weekend along with new fenders, hood, bumper, and a grille guard
