Pull them apart and clean the contact surfaces/ grounds and check the bulbs.
Yea after finding the troubleshooting guide for the system, I realized that it could just be blown bulbs or bad connection.... Fingers crossed!

Please make sure you come back and tell us what you found...it will help the next guy trying to do a search before asking for help...it's frustrating to do a search, find 8 threads about a certain problem, read thru 11 pages of post, and the original poster did not come back and do a write up on what the problem turned out to be...Good luck on the hunt!

Is the three lever switch in the proper position?

My warning lights work with the light switches in any position.

You are talking about the three to the left of the steering column correct? Parking brake, low air, and override right?
If so, do your high beam and front axle lock lights work?

Does the blue high beam indicator work?
If it does and nothing else lights, I suspect your fail safe warning module is not connected or a bad module. Many times they are dis connected to cancel the annoying buzzing that won't go off.

Thanks guys, I'm picking up the truck in Barstow Monday morning.... I'll let you know what I find!

Hmmmm, seems counter-productive to the whole point of having a three lever light switch in a military vehicle in the first place. ( light discipline)
Well it turns out that the spring break light works fine, the low air light is dim and the parking brake light bulb is missing We got her home today with only a few minor issues along the way....I will post up the details in a new thread. The TM's definitely saved me a big tow bill

My turn signal will not "cancel" or return to neutral position. I always thought it was an army thing. Is that normal??

Yes, The older switches either style do not self cancel. The black plastic ones in a hmmvw do self cancel as they have the additional cam action. Might be also in the newer trucks?
All older switches don't self cancel. My first semi that has self cancelling turn signals is a 2013 Freightliner. I was very happy when I found that out.I drove a 2010 for 2 years that didn't. I didn't think it was SO hard to put such an easy convenience into a big truck!!
