 whs also where are you standing when you notice this or is it all over? if you find a suspect area use a continuity tester from the "source" to the rail if it lights you found it. Dennis is sure to be a help on this one. I had a similar issue on my old bow rider but that was because the wires fir the lights where ran through the rails and one of then rubbed through the insulator. Do you have a t-top? If so do your spreaders run through it? Just throwing possibles out there.
