The '99 diesel six-speed has 105,000 miles, is equipped for
towing a fifth-wheel, has been serviced by the book (except
for more oil changes), is parked in a well-populated RV
park, and lately has occasional flickering brake lights when
the truck is swithed off and nobody is near it. What's a
likely cause of this?
