First time posting here but I own 3 2500HDs for my Landscaping business. Anyway, I have a strange problem on my '06 2500HD....for a while, the dash lights would dim all the way but after playing with the dimmer switch, they would come back.

Now, I have no dash lights at all and none of the gauges work. However, if I raise my snow plow or change the angle, everything works for a while it then it all cuts out again. It seems like it only works when there's a load on the system or something.

If the truck sits for more than a few days without being driven, the battery also dies. Any suggestions?? Thanks!

I would say you have a short somewhere, I would look at the plow controller, and where it's tapped for power.
