Follow up: 89-97 clearance lights and tail lights - Pete Masterson - 10-09-2006 13:47 Earlier I wrote on the above topic. Here's the latest: Clearance light: corroded socket. A little sand paper and it's now back in operation. Not a very long-term solution, however. These are the Peterson M126A lights (on the side of the coach). I've looked at a bunch of LED models, but none are direct replacements. I can still get the M126A model with a regular bulb. From the photos, it appears to be an improved design that better protects the socket from corrosion. Does anybody know of an LED model that's a direct replacement for the Peterson M126A clearance lights? Tail lights: No solution yet. In testing today, I disconnected the connector for all the rear lights and powered them with a small 12 v battery that I had available. All lights operated as expected. Testing the bus-side connector with the volt meter, I get 12.6 (or so) volts for the turn signals, brake lights, back up lights, and stop lights. I get 0.1 volt for the tail lights. In front, I (think) I found the correct fuse. I had 12.6 volts at the fuse. I found (I'm sure) the terminal where the tail light wire heads for the back of the bus. I had 0.1 volt on the terminal. (Head lights, a couple of positions over from the tail lights had 12.6 volts.) So, the problem is somewhere between the fuse and the terminal ... a distance of six inches. I can't seem to locate the relay -- and I suspect that there is one. (More sweating over the wiring diagram tomorrow.) Any ideas? Pete Masterson aeonix1@...

Tom Warner came up with this rather informative website describing some of the challenges with LED's. http://tinyurl.com/9qcbp David B '02 LXi, Smokey Va Pete Masterson wrote: > Earlier I wrote on the above topic.

It has some clearance lights that are close to the same size as the Peterson M126A. Pete Masterson aeonix1@...

The Maxxima M20332Y measure 6.1875" x 1.875" while the Peterson M126A measures 3.75" x 2.25" high. The extra width might not be a problem, but the smaller height is likely to expose unattractive finish that was covered by the M126A.

It can be purchased from Rush truck centers who are Peterbuilt dealers. I believe Birtles also has this available. Only difference is this is a two wire unit not a single wire. I purchased two from Rush for $8.33 each, but I believe Birtles has them for a little less. Size is perfect down to hole locations.
