on this one with the tail lights on and turn signal on the tail lights flicker where the turn signal flashes i figured its a ground issue check grounds they are good when i put my power probe on the tail light voltage wire i get a pulse when the turn signal flashes is there a turn signal flasher or does it run threw the multiplex unit????

Check it going in and see if it pulses, which it shouldn't. If not bad box.

I dont have a schematic in front of me, but if I remember correctly, the clearance light work as follows, ground signal from the switch, to the multiplex, from there the signal goes to the relay in the side panel, and the power that goes to the tail lights, gets its power from the fuse panel on the side, not directly from the multiplex, so you would want to check your power at that relay? See what happens there

You don't have access to BLue Bird vantage? It is free if you have purchase blue bird buses. Contact your dealer and they can set you up within hours. Vantage has everything manual wise for your specific bus.
