I have searched, and the only "answer" to my question seems to be to troubleshoot which I have tried.

The problem seems to be posted a lot. It is:

1) Having no parking lights or gauge lights at all. The headlights do work, and the switch works as well.

2) The "Tails" fuse keeps blowing when the ignition is turned. It is a "hard" blow, so it is the car is grouding out somewhere.

3) We have put a testing light in the Tails circuit and have disconnected every bulb and even the dimmer switch and still havent found the grounding problem.
The radio is out of the car right now so that can be excluded from the answer.

4) We have taken a digital multimeter and tested the resitance of all the circuits and havent found the ground yet. I am at a loss.

The point of this really is to ask those who have had this seemingly common problem what was wrong in their car and what fixed it.

Thank you for any help! :dsm: :confused:
